ARTICHOKE AND CRAB SPREAD



Artichoke and Crab Spread image

I bought a similar spread at the grocery store a while back, and I thought that I could do it better and cheaper myself. You can use imitation crab, instead of the real thing if you like. I use cooked and frozen artichoke hearts or you can buy fresh artichokes, and cook the hearts up yourself.

FRESH FOCACCIA WITH MARINATED CHICKEN AND SPINACH AND ARTICHOKE SPREAD



Fresh Focaccia with Marinated Chicken and Spinach and Artichoke Spread image

Provided by Jeff Mauro, host of Sandwich King

Categories     main-dish

Time 55m

Yield 6 to 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 33

4 boneless skinless chicken breasts
1/2 cup Balsamic Base, recipe follows (or balsamic vinegar)
5 ounces (1/2 a box) frozen chopped spinach, defrosted, drained
1/2 cup sour cream
2 tablespoons mayonnaise
1 clove garlic, grated
1 lemon, zested and juiced
1 lemon, zested and juiced
Salt and freshly cracked black pepper
Salt and freshly cracked black pepper
One 6-ounce jar marinated artichoke hearts, drained
Fresh Focaccia, recipe follows
1/2 cup sun-dried tomatoes packed in oil, sliced into thin strips
1 pound ball fresh mozzarella, sliced into 1/4-inch slices
2 cups arugula
4 cups balsamic vinegar
2 tablespoons brown sugar
1 teaspoon kosher salt
1/2 teaspoon freshly cracked pepper
8 fresh basil leaves
5 sprigs fresh thyme
4 cloves garlic, crushed
1 large shallot, roughly chopped
2 cups warm water (105 to 110 degrees F)
1 tablespoon sugar
2 packages active dry yeast
4 cups all-purpose flour, plus more for dusting
1 cup whole wheat flour
1 1/2 tablespoons kosher salt
1 teaspoon chopped fresh rosemary, finely chopped, plus leaves, for garnish
1 cup olive oil, plus more for brushing
8 thinly sliced rounds beefsteak tomato
2 tablespoons grated Parmesan

Steps:

  • For the chicken: Marinate the chicken in the Balsamic Base for at least 30 minutes or up to 2 hours in the refrigerator.
  • Preheat a grill pan or grill over medium-high heat.
  • Let any excess marinade drip off the chicken, and then grill the chicken for 5 to 6 minutes per side until cooked through. Once cooked, let rest 5 to 10 minutes. Then slice thinly on the bias.
  • For the spinach and artichoke spread: Squeeze the drained spinach with a kitchen towel to dry it out. Place into a food processor with the sour cream, mayonnaise, garlic, lemon zest and juice. Puree until smooth. Taste for seasoning and add the artichokes. Pulse 2 to 3 times to leave the artichokes slightly chunky.
  • For the sandwich build: Cut the Fresh Focaccia in half equatorially. Spread each half with Spinach Artichoke Spread. Then, on the bottom of the bread, sprinkle over the sliced sun-dried tomatoes, top with chicken slices, place a layer of mozzarella down and top with arugula. Place on the other half of bread and cut into as many pieces as you like and enjoy!
  • Heat the balsamic vinegar in a heavy-bottomed saucepan over medium heat. Add the brown sugar, salt, pepper, basil, thyme, garlic and shallots into the saucepan and stir. Bring the mixture to a gentle simmer and let cook until the liquid is reduced by half, 30 to 45 minutes. Once the mixture is reduced, strain it through a fine mesh strainer set over a bowl and let cool. Store the balsamic base in the fridge; it's great in salad dressings, marinades, drizzled over steaks...let your imagination run wild.
  • Place the water in the bowl of a stand mixer. Add the sugar, sprinkle the yeast over the water and let it bloom until bubbly, 5 to 15 minutes.
  • In a mixing bowl, combine the all-purpose and wheat flours together with the salt and chopped rosemary. Gradually add the flour mixture to the bloomed yeast in the mixing bowl. Then add 1/2 cup of the olive oil.
  • Using the dough hook attachment, mix the dough on medium speed until it becomes smooth and soft, 8 to 10 minutes. The dough will be very loose.
  • Transfer the dough to a clean, floured surface and knead the dough by hand for 2 to 3 minutes.
  • Wipe out the bowl you mixed the dough in and then coat the bowl with some olive oil. Return the dough to the oiled bowl and let it rest in a warm place, covered with a dish towel, until doubled in size, 30 to 35 minutes.
  • Oil a 9-by-13-inch baking sheet with the remaining 1/2 cup olive oil. Spread the dough into the pan using your fingertips to create dimples into the dough. The more dimples you make, the more texture the bread will have.
  • Using a pastry brush, oil the dough and place leaves of rosemary into some of the dimples. Top with the tomato slices and sprinkle with the Parmesan. Cover the dough again with the towel and let rest in a warm spot until doubled in size, another 30 minutes.
  • Preheat the oven to 425 degree F and set a rack in the middle of the oven.
  • Bake the dough until golden brown, 35 to 40 minutes.

Tips:

  • Choose fresh artichokes: Look for artichokes that are heavy for their size, with tightly closed leaves and no signs of bruising or discoloration.
  • Prepare the artichokes properly: Trim the stem and the top of the artichoke, then remove the tough outer leaves. Cut the artichoke in half lengthwise and scoop out the fuzzy choke from the center.
  • Cook the artichokes until tender: You can steam, boil, or roast the artichokes. Steaming is the gentlest method and will preserve the most nutrients. To steam, place the artichokes in a steamer basket over a pot of boiling water. Cover and steam for 15-20 minutes, or until the artichokes are tender when pierced with a fork.
  • Make the artichoke spread: Once the artichokes are cooked, let them cool slightly. Then, remove the leaves from the artichoke and chop them finely. Combine the chopped artichokes with the other ingredients for the spread, such as mayonnaise, cream cheese, Parmesan cheese, and garlic. Season to taste with salt and pepper.
  • Serve the artichoke spread: Serve the artichoke spread as a dip with crackers, bread, or vegetables. You can also use it as a sandwich spread or as a filling for stuffed mushrooms or other appetizers.

Conclusion:

Artichoke spread is a delicious and versatile appetizer that is perfect for any occasion. It is easy to make and can be tailored to your own taste preferences. With its creamy texture, tangy flavor, and nutty aroma, artichoke spread is sure to be a hit at your next party or gathering.
