KICKIN' CHICKEN BAKE



Kickin' Chicken Bake image

This delicious twist on the chicken & broccoli crescent ring was a contest winner submitted on one of Emeril's Cooking with Kids specials. A little boy named Noah came up with this version, which I tried immediately and loved. I added jalapenos and more garlic to mine. I use leftover rotisserie chicken, skinned and boned or freshly poached chicken breast meat in this. Also NOTE: The original version called for only 1 can of crecsent rolls and made 1 wreath. However, I found there was a lot of filling, enough for 2 wreaths. I made 1 wreath and saved the extra filling to bake as a separate casserole (bake for the same amount of time and serve with crusty rolls on the side).

CHICKEN BAKE



Chicken Bake image

Inspired by Costco's famous chicken bake, we came up with a hand-held version that's easy to make at home. The cheesy bacon-filled pockets taste great hot from the oven, but can also be made in advance and reheated wrapped in foil in a 400 degrees F-oven for 8 to 10 minutes.

Provided by Food Network Kitchen

Categories     main-dish

Time 55m

Yield 4 rolls

Number Of Ingredients 11

1 cup shredded mozzarella
1 cup shredded provolone
1/4 cup grated Parmesan
2 cups skinless chopped rotisserie chicken meat
4 slices cooked and crumbled bacon
2 tablespoons chopped fresh chives
1/3 cup good-quality prepared creamy Caesar dressing
Freshly ground black pepper
1 pound pizza dough, at room temperature
Extra-virgin olive oil, for the dough
1 tablespoon unsalted butter, melted and cooled

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F and line a baking sheet with parchment. Combine the mozzarella, provolone and Parmesan in a large bowl and toss to combine. Transfer 1/2 cup of the cheese mixture to a small bowl and reserve.
  • Add the chicken, bacon and chives to the large bowl with the cheese. Drizzle with the Caesar dressing and season with several grinds of black pepper. Toss until everything is combined and well coated.
  • Divide the pizza dough into 4 equal pieces and rub lightly with olive oil. Roll one piece into a 7-by-9-inch rectangle. With one of the long sides closest to you, arrange a quarter of the filling in a log across the center of the rectangle, leaving an inch of space at each side edge. Fold in the sides, then fold the bottom piece of dough over the filling and roll up to enclose it, trimming away any excess dough. Pinch the seams together to seal well. Place the roll seam-side down on the prepared baking sheet. Repeat with the remaining dough and filling, leaving about 2 inches between each on the baking sheet.
  • Brush the rolls all over with the melted butter and sprinkle with the reserved cheese mixture. Bake until the rolls are golden and the cheese topping is crusty and browned, 25 to 30 minutes. Let cool 5 minutes before serving.

Kickin' Chicken thighs image

Bbq chicken thighs at its best !

Provided by Hayley Nease

Categories     Chicken

Time 1h5m

Number Of Ingredients 4

10 chicken thighs, skinless and boneless
1 c kraft chipolte bbq sauce
salt and pepper to taste
2 Tbsp creole seasoning

Steps:

  • 1. Pre-heat your oven to 350 degrees. Place the 10 chicken thighs in a baking dish. Do not add water or oil !! Sprinkle the Creol seasoning evenly among the thighs, and salt and pepper them to your liking. Cover with foil and bake for 35- 40 minute.

  • 3. Once thoroughly cooked, remove from oven and allow to set for 5 minutes before serving.

Tips:

  • Prep the chicken: Before baking, ensure the chicken is thoroughly rinsed and patted dry. This helps the marinade penetrate the chicken and results in a more flavorful dish.
  • Use a flavorful marinade: The marinade is key to adding flavor to the chicken. Use a combination of herbs, spices, and acidic ingredients like lemon juice or yogurt. Let the chicken marinate for at least 30 minutes, or up to overnight.
  • Don't overcrowd the pan: When baking the chicken, make sure there's enough space between the pieces so they cook evenly. Overcrowding can lead to uneven cooking and steamed chicken.
  • Roast at a high temperature: Baking the chicken at a high temperature (400°F or higher) helps create a crispy exterior and juicy interior. This also helps prevent the chicken from drying out.
  • Use a meat thermometer: To ensure the chicken is cooked through, insert a meat thermometer into the thickest part of the chicken. The internal temperature should reach 165°F before removing it from the oven.
  • Let the chicken rest: After baking, let the chicken rest for a few minutes before serving. This allows the juices to redistribute, resulting in tender and flavorful chicken.
