CHESAPEAKE CHICKEN

I love Old Bay Seasoning and was looking for new ways to use it. I had several "coastal creations" as I call them and this one is one that people enjoy the most out of them. And by the way, your house is going to smell like a seaside seafood restaurant while this is cooking!

GREEK CHICKEN

I came up with this recipe last year-it was one of those-hmmm, here's what we got now let's make something. It's very good and the whole family likes it. You can sub broccoli for the spinach if you like.

Provided by Diana Adcock

Categories     Chicken

Time 40m

Number Of Ingredients 13

6 boneless skinless chicken breasts
2 teaspoons olive oil
1 can diced tomatoes

1 large onion, sliced into long thin wedges
3 cloves garlic, sliced thin
1/2 cup dry red wine
salt and pepper
1 teaspoon oregano, dried
black olives, sliced
green olives, sliced
feta cheese (I buy it in containers so the measurements are never the same-let's say a 3x3x2 piece crumbled)

Steps:

  • Lightly salt and pepper chicken and fry in oil-slice each breast into 4 or 5 thick slices.
  • You want it only half way cooked.
  • Add tomatoes with juice-spinach and mushrooms.
  • Simmer for 5 minutes.
  • Add onions, garlic and oregano and simmer for 3 minutes.
  • Check to see if chicken is cooked through.
  • If done add wine and olives and heat through.
  • Add half of the feta and remove from heat-toss.
  • Offer remaining feta at the table.

CHESAPEAKE BAY STYLE CHICKEN



Chesapeake Bay Style Chicken image

Southern Maryland style Fried Chicken. I've used John Shields recipe for fried chicken for "Special Occasions" for many years now. The recipe requires marinating, then flouring and finally frying. I usually cook for a family of ten so this is a large recipe for a crowd.

Provided by cookie_mum

Categories     < 4 Hours

Time 2h

Yield 20 pieces of chicken, 10-12 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 12

8 -10 lbs , wings and thighs.. (or any part you like)
2 cups all-purpose flour (I used un-bleached mostly)
1/4 cup cornmeal or 1/4 cup breadcrumbs
buttermilk to cover the chicken
6 garlic cloves, opened (or more)
3 tablespoons Old Bay Seasoning
1 tablespoon paprika
1 teaspoon cinnamon
1 teaspoon cayenne pepper or 1 teaspoon about 10 splashes of good hot sauce
1 teaspoon peppercorn
2 tablespoons salt (or more)
1 cup oil

Steps:

  • 1.Wash and pat your chicken dry
  • 2.Combine your spices( except the pepper corns), season and Rub most of it on the chicken. I usually set aside 3-4 Tablespoons to go into the flour before I season the chicken.
  • 3.Place the chicken in a large bowl if you haven't already and cover with buttermilk and drop in your garlic, pepper corns and your hot sauce if you're using it.
  • 4. Cover and place in the frig. for 1-2 hours or overnight is best.
  • 5. When the chicken is finished marinating. Get your flour and breadcrumbs mixed with some of the reserved seasoning -- taste for saltiness. If you want add just another teaspoon of salt.
  • 6. Heat up you oil to 375 degrees -- you'll know it's there when an old piece of bread gets crisp within seconds of hitting the oil.
  • 7. Begin Taking your chicken from the marinade, letting the most of it run off and begin dropping the chicken into the flour mixture.I use a large paper bag for this most of the time. Set aside on a plate until your oil is ready. once it's ready.
  • 8.Get out your tongs and start placing the biggest pieces first and let them fry up to an amber brown.
  • 9. This recipe has a lot of spices in it and it cooks up darker than other recipes -- fast. so keep your oil at a steady temperature. If you notice the chicken getting dark too fast lower the temperature -- wait a few and start again.

Tips:

  • Use a variety of fresh herbs and spices. Fresh herbs like oregano, thyme, and rosemary add a burst of flavor to the chicken, while spices like paprika, cumin, and garlic powder add depth and complexity.
  • Don't be afraid to experiment with different marinades. Marinating the chicken in a mixture of olive oil, lemon juice, and herbs for at least 30 minutes helps to tenderize the meat and infuse it with flavor.
  • Cook the chicken over medium heat. This will help to prevent the chicken from drying out and ensure that it cooks evenly throughout.
  • Serve the chicken with a variety of sides. Roasted vegetables, mashed potatoes, and a simple green salad are all great options.

Conclusion:

Chesapeake Greek Chicken is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for any occasion. With its flavorful marinade, tender chicken, and crispy skin, this dish is sure to be a hit with everyone at the table. So next time you're looking for a new and exciting way to cook chicken, give Chesapeake Greek Chicken a try. You won't be disappointed!
