Provided by Mezzetta

Categories     Dinner

Yield 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 15

6 large bone-in, skin-on chicken thighs
kosher salt, to taste
freshly ground black pepper, to taste
2 tablespoons olive oil
1 small yellow onion, diced
2 garlic cloves, chopped
1 cup Mezzetta® Roasted Red Bell Peppers, drained, sliced in strips
1 cup Mezzetta® Pitted Castelvetrano Italian Olives, drained and halved
1 cup yellow squash, or zucchini, or potatoes, sliced in ¼-inch (6 mm) thick half moons
1 can tomato, diced
½ cup dry white wine, (or chicken stock)
2 tablespoons unsalted butter
2 teaspoons fresh thyme leaf, chopped
¼ teaspoon red pepper flakes, (optional)
1 tablespoon fresh parsley, chopped

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 350°F (180°C).
  • Season the chicken thighs generously with salt and pepper.
  • Heat a large cast-iron skillet over medium-high heat. When the pan is very hot, add the olive oil and tilt to coat the pan. Add the chicken thighs, skin-side down, and cook without disturbing for 5-7 minutes, or until the skin is crispy and golden brown. Flip the chicken and cook for another 3 minutes, until lightly browned on the other side. Remove the chicken from the pan and set aside.
  • Reduce the heat to medium-low, then add the onion and garlic to the pan and sauté, stirring frequently, for 2-3 minutes, or until they begin to soften. Watch carefully so they don't burn.
  • Add the Mezzetta® Roasted Red Bell Peppers, Mezzetta® Pitted Castelvetrano Italian Olives, and yellow squash, then cook for 1 minute, stirring to combine.
  • Stir in the diced tomatoes and white wine, bring to a simmer and cook for 5 minutes until tomatoes start to break down and the mixture begins to reduce slightly.
  • Fold in the butter, then add the chopped thyme and red pepper flakes, if using, and season with salt and pepper.
  • Nestle the chicken thighs into the sauce, skin-side up, leaving some of the skin exposed.
  • Transfer to the oven and bake for 30-40 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through and easily pulls away from the bone. Cover the pan loosely with foil if the skin starts to get too dark.
  • Remove from the oven and let rest for 5 minutes, then garnish with the parsley and serve.
  • Enjoy!

CREAMY BAKED CHICKEN AND MUSHROOMS



Creamy Baked Chicken and Mushrooms image

This is a simple and tasty recipe for weekdays or when friends and family come over to visit. It's a creamy chicken comfort food recipe with mushrooms that I have had a lot of good comments on when I make it at home. If you have a rice cooker, cook some rice while the chicken is resting. It's a great base for the chicken and creamy sauce.

CREAMY OLIVE CHICKEN BAKE WITH RED PEPPERS AND MUSHROOMS



Creamy Olive Chicken Bake With Red Peppers and Mushrooms image

Now I'm not much into casseroles, just a few, and not a big fan. But this is good. Whole wheat pasta, chicken breasts, fresh crimini mushrooms, olives tossed with a creamy sauce and some extra cheese. Baked and served. After a review, I admit, this is a lighter flavor I admit. This was designed for a friend who doesn't like quite as much spice as me. Two options ... I have made this with 1 1/2 cups or 1 can of green olives to the kalamata which does give a little more salt and flavor. I do use some of the broth as well. Also using whole wheat pasta is a key, and cremini is a key for this recipe. Good parmesan not the green can is again important and fresh basil. This dish really relies on KEY ingredients. But the extra olives will definitely help. But this is a very mild dish with subtle flavors.

CHICKEN AND OLIVES



Chicken and Olives image

The sharp, briny bite of olives is the dominant flavors here, which is why it pairs so well with chicken breast. This is one of those dishes where, if you tasted the chicken and sauce separately, you probably wouldn't be very impressed, but together they're magic.

Provided by Chef John

Categories     Meat and Poultry Recipes     Chicken     Chicken Breast Recipes     Pan-Fried

Time 45m

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 13

4 boneless chicken breast halves with skin
salt and ground black pepper to taste
1 pinch cayenne pepper, or to taste
2 teaspoons herbes de Provence
2 tablespoons olive oil
¼ cup sliced shallots
½ cup pitted and sliced green olives
½ cup brine-cured pitted olives, such as Kalamata, halved lengthwise and brine reserved
1 cup chicken broth
1 lemon, zested and juiced
½ teaspoon cumin
2 tablespoons chopped fresh flat-leaf parsley
2 tablespoons cold butter, cut into four pieces

Steps:

  • Season skin-side of chicken with salt, black pepper, and cayenne pepper. Turn breasts over and season skinless side with salt, black pepper, cayenne, and herbes de Provence. Turn again so that the skin-side is facing up; rest for 10 minutes.
  • Heat olive oil in a large skillet over high heat. Place chicken skin-side down in hot oil. Reduce heat to medium-high and cook chicken until skin is well-browned, about 5 minutes. Turn chicken and cook until just browned, about 2 minutes; transfer to a plate.
  • Reduce heat to medium. Cook and stir shallots in the hot skillet until just softening and golden brown, about 2 minutes. Stir olives into shallots and cook until fragrant, about 30 seconds.
  • Pour the chicken broth into the skillet; bring to a boil while scraping the browned bits of food off of the bottom of the pan with a wooden spoon. Add lemon juice, 2 tablespoons of the reserved olive brine, lemon zest, and cumin; increase heat to high and cook until sauce is reduced by half, 2 to 3 minutes.
  • Reduce heat to low and return chicken, skin-side up, to the skillet. Cover the skillet with a lid and cook until no longer pink in the center and the juices run clear, about 5 minutes. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 165 degrees F (74 degrees C). Remove chicken to a plate and cover with aluminum foil.
  • Stir parsley and butter into sauce, stirring continuously until butter is melted and sauce is shiny. Spoon sauce over chicken.
