Provided by Food Network

Categories     dessert

Yield Serves 6

Number Of Ingredients 7

3 cups water
1/3 cup tapioca pearls (1/16 inch wide)
1 cup unsweetened coconut milk (preferably Mae Ploy brand)
1/3 cup sugar, or to taste
Pinch salt
3 ripe but firm bananas
2 tablespoons chopped roasted peanuts

Steps:

  • Bring the water to a rolling boil in a medium saucepan over high heat. Add the tapioca pearls and stir to separate. Reduce the heat to low and simmer until the tapioca becomes translucent, about 20 minutes. Add the coconut milk, sugar and salt and stir well.
  • Five minutes before the end of cooking time, peel the bananas and cut them in half lengthwise. Cut each piece again into 4 pieces. Add them to the pan and cook until just soft. At this point the tapioca pearls should be clear and cooked.
  • Remove from the heat and transfer to individual dessert bowls. Garnish with the peanuts and serve hot or at room temperature. (The pudding will thicken as it cools.)

BANANA CHICKEN STEW

This soup/stew is a bit spicy from the cayenne and sweet from the banana. Serve warm over rice (we prefer brown rice) with a leafy green salad. The measurements for seasonings are approximate as I unfortunately don't measure, so start small and adjust to your taste. This is even better the second day.

Time 1h

Yield 4-6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 16

2 cups chicken stock
4 stalks celery (if small, or two large stalks)
2 tablespoons olive oil
2 boneless skinless chicken breasts, chopped to 1/2 inch pieces
2 medium yellow onions, finely chopped
2 garlic cloves, finely chopped
3 bananas, ripe
1/4 teaspoon ground ginger
1/4 teaspoon dried thyme
1/4 teaspoon dried rosemary
1/4 teaspoon cayenne (I added much more)
1 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon black pepper
1 cup milk, warmed
1 (15 ounce) can garbanzo beans (chickpeas)
1 tablespoon butter

Steps:

  • In a saucepan, bring the chicken stock to a low boil. Slice the celery ribs down the center, then chop into thin pieces and add to the stock. Allow the celery to cook 5-10 minutes, or until it becomes tender. Turn off the heat and set aside.
  • Place a large stockpot over medium heat and add the olive oil. When warm add the cubed chicken and cook through, allowing the bits to become slightly golden. Use a slotted spoon to remove the chicken (reserve aside in a bowl).
  • After removing the chicken, add the chopped onion to stockpot. Cook until the onion is beginning to turn golden, then add the garlic and cook for another minute. You're ready to add the bananas! Just slice the bananas into manageable chunks then plop them into the onion/garlic goodness. Use a fork or a potato masher to break down the bananas. There will probably be some lumps--that's perfectly fine.
  • Once mashed, add the spices and seasonings (ginger, thyme, rosemary, cayenne, salt and pepper). Make sure to start small and add more to taste. Remember that while you can always *add* more cayenne its near-impossible to remove!
  • Let the newly-spiced banana mixture warm for a minute then add the milk, garbanzo beans, and reserved cooked chicken. Once this is thoroughly mixed, also add the reserved celery and chicken stock and the butter. All the kiddies should now be in the pool. Bring this up to a very low boil, and if necessary allow it to reduce until the liquid has a texture that is slightly creamy.
  • Serve warm over rice.

Categories     Chicken

Time 1h30m

Number Of Ingredients 7

cut up chicken
salt and pepper
1 c cream of coconut (*found in drink mix area of grocery store - used to make pina coladas, etc)
2 Tbsp lemon juice
6 medium bananas
2 1/2 c cornflake crumbs
3/4 c melted butter

Steps:

  • 1. Preheat oven to 350.
  • 2. Sprinkle chicken pieces on all sides with salt and pepper. In a bowl, mix coconut cream with lemon juice.
  • 3. Peel bananas and cut each banana into halves lengthwise. Brush chicken and bananas thickly with coconut mixture and roll in crumbs, pressing firmly to make them adhere. (*Note* - this is messy) Brush a baking pan with some of the butter. Place chicken pieces in a single layer into pan and drizzle with half of the butter. Bake in preheated 350 oven for 45 minutes.
  • 4. Add bananas and drizzle with remaining butter. Bake for another 15 minutes.
  • 5. Voila!

Tips:

  • To make the chicken more tender, marinate it in a mixture of soy sauce, rice wine, and sesame oil for at least 30 minutes before cooking.
  • If you don't have a bamboo steamer, you can steam the bananas in a colander set over a pot of boiling water.
  • To make the sauce, use a combination of light soy sauce, dark soy sauce, and oyster sauce. This will give the sauce a rich and complex flavor.
  • If you like spicy food, add a teaspoon or two of chili paste to the sauce.
  • Serve the banana chicken stew with steamed rice or noodles.

Conclusion:

Banana chicken stew is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for a weeknight meal. The combination of chicken, bananas, and vegetables is a unique and flavorful combination that is sure to please everyone at the table. So next time you're looking for a new dish to try, give banana chicken stew a try! You won't be disappointed.
