Time 40m

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 8

1 tablespoon olive oil
4 skinless, boneless chicken breast halves, cubed
2 cloves garlic, chopped, or to taste
½ cup red cooking wine
1 (28 ounce) can Italian-style diced tomatoes
8 ounces small seashell pasta
5 ounces fresh spinach, chopped
1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese

Steps:

  • Heat the olive oil in a large skillet with a lid over medium heat, and cook and stir the chicken and garlic until the chicken is no longer pink in the center, 5 to 8 minutes. Pour the wine and diced tomatoes with their juice into the skillet, and bring to a boil over high heat while scraping any browned bits of food off of the bottom of the pan with a wooden spoon.
  • Stir in the shell pasta, and return to a boil. Cook uncovered, stirring occasionally, until the shells have cooked through, but are still firm to the bite, about 10 minutes. Spread the spinach over the top of the pasta, cover, and simmer until the spinach leaves are cooked, about 5 minutes. Sprinkle the mozzarella cheese evenly over the skillet, and simmer until the cheese has melted and the pasta is bubbling, about 5 minutes.

Categories     main-dish

Time 45m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 12

1/4 cup balsamic vinegar
1 teaspoon dried parsley flakes
1 teaspoon dried basil
1 teaspoon kosher salt
1/2 teaspoon freshly cracked black pepper
5 cloves garlic, minced
1 cup plus 3 tablespoons olive oil
8 bone-in, skin-on chicken thighs
1 pound green beans
2 cups mixed cherry tomatoes
1 loaf crusty ciabatta bread
2 tablespoons minced fresh parsley

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F.
  • To a bowl or pitcher, add the vinegar, parsley, basil, salt, pepper, garlic and 1 cup of the olive oil. Whisk until well combined.
  • Put the chicken in a large zipper bag and pour in half the dressing. Seal the bag and squish to coat the chicken.
  • Trim the ends of the green beans and put in a large bowl with the tomatoes. Pour over the remaining dressing and toss.
  • Using tongs, arrange the chicken skin-side up on a sheet pan. Use a slotted spoon to transfer the beans and tomatoes to the sheet pan, leaving the excess marinade behind. Roast for 20 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, rip the bread into large chunks. Add to a bowl, drizzle with the remaining 3 tablespoons olive oil and toss.
  • After the chicken and vegetables have roasted for 20 minutes, shake the pan to prevent sticking, then add the bread chunks to the pan. Continue to roast until the chicken is cooked through and the skin is golden and crisp, about another 10 minutes. Sprinkle the sheet pan with parsley and serve.

Tips:

  • Use bone-in, skin-on chicken thighs. This will give your dish more flavor and keep the chicken moist.
  • Don't overcrowd the skillet. If you do, the chicken will steam instead of brown.
  • Cook the chicken over medium heat. This will help it cook evenly and prevent it from burning.
  • Add the vegetables towards the end of cooking. This will prevent them from overcooking.
  • Season the dish to taste. Use salt, pepper, garlic powder, and Italian seasoning to create a flavorful dish.

Conclusion:

This Italian chicken skillet supper is a quick and easy weeknight meal that is sure to please the whole family. It is packed with flavor and can be easily customized to your liking. So next time you're looking for a simple and delicious dinner idea, give this recipe a try.
