Categories     main-dish

Time 35m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 13

8 chicken tenders, about 1 pound
Kosher salt
5 tablespoons low-sodium soy sauce
1 tablespoon toasted sesame oil
2 teaspoons rice vinegar
2 teaspoon sambal or chili-garlic sauce
4 scallions, thinly sliced, greens and whites kept separately
2 teaspoons finely grated ginger
8 ounces snow peas, trimmed
4 ounces shiitake mushrooms, caps sliced and stems discarded (about 12)
3 cups frozen brown rice
1/2 cup roughly chopped cilantro
2 teaspoons toasted sesame seeds

Steps:

  • Position 2 racks in the upper and lower thirds of the oven and preheat to 400 degrees F. Cut four 16-inch long sheets of parchment paper. Fold each sheet in half and open like a book. Divide the pieces of parchment between 2 baking sheets (2 pieces per sheet).
  • Trim away the tendon attached to the thicker part of the tenderloin with kitchen shears and discard. Sprinkle the chicken all over with 3/4 teaspoon salt.
  • Combine the soy sauce, sesame oil, rice vinegar, sambal, scallion whites, ginger, and 1 tablespoon water in a small bowl. Place snow peas and shiitakes in a medium bowl and toss with 2 tablespoons of the soy sauce mixture.
  • Mound 3/4 cup brown rice on each parchment sheet, placing it on one side of the fold, and drizzle with 1 tablespoon water. Top with the vegetables, and two chicken tenders per serving, tucking as many of the vegetables as possible under the chicken. Spoon about 2 teaspoons of the soy sauce mixture evenly over each serving of chicken. (You should have some left over for drizzling later.)
  • Fold over the top half of the parchment, crimping and overlapping small folds along the open edge to seal tightly. Bake until the parchment puffs, 18 minutes; chicken will be cooked through. Transfer the packets to plates and let stand 2 minutes. Avoiding the hot steam, carefully cut open the packets. Drizzle remaining soy sauce mixture over the chicken and rice. Top with scallion greens, cilantro, and sesame seeds.

Tips:

  • Use a variety of vegetables: This will add flavor, texture, and nutrients to your dish. Some good options include bell peppers, onions, zucchini, and carrots.
  • Don't overcrowd the parchment paper: This will prevent the chicken from cooking evenly. Leave some space between the pieces of chicken so that the air can circulate.
  • Fold the parchment paper tightly: This will create a seal that keeps the moisture in and helps the chicken to cook more quickly.
  • Bake the chicken until it is cooked through: The internal temperature should reach 165 degrees Fahrenheit. You can check this by inserting a meat thermometer into the thickest part of the chicken.
  • Let the chicken rest before serving: This will help the juices to redistribute throughout the chicken, making it more tender and flavorful.

Conclusion:

Baked chili chicken in parchment is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for a weeknight meal. The chicken is tender and juicy, and the vegetables are flavorful and colorful. This dish is also a good source of protein and nutrients. With a little planning and preparation, you can have a delicious and healthy meal on the table in no time.
