PANZANELLA WITH CRISP CHICKEN SKIN



Panzanella With Crisp Chicken Skin image

This Tuscan bread salad uses leftover roast chicken to make an amazing one-bowl meal. Instead of simply shredding chicken meat and skin and tossing it with tomatoes and bread, spend an few extra minutes crisping up the skin first. It's a huge reward for the effort. The skin goes from floppy to crunchy and almost baconlike.

Time 30m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 12

1 1/4 pounds very ripe tomatoes; a mix of varieties and colors is nice
2 garlic cloves, peeled and smashed
3/4 teaspoon kosher sea salt, more to taste
6 tablespoons plus 1 teaspoon olive oil, more as needed
1 tablespoon lemon juice
1/2 teaspoon Dijon mustard
Freshly ground black pepper, to taste
2 cups leftover or rotisserie chicken including some skin (about 1/2 chicken)
1 tablespoon capers, drained and patted dry
1 6-inch length of ciabatta or baguette (about 4 ounces), preferably stale, cut into 1-inch cubes
3 sprigs fresh thyme or 2 sprigs fresh oregano
Chopped fresh basil, for serving

Steps:

  • Cut tomatoes into bite-sized pieces and transfer to a large bowl. Using a large chef's knife, mince 1 of the smashed garlic cloves. Add a pinch of salt and using the flat side of your knife, smash into a fine paste. Add garlic paste to the tomatoes along with 1/4 teaspoon salt and 1 tablespoon olive oil. Toss to coat and set aside.
  • In a medium bowl, combine the lemon juice, mustard, 1/4 teaspoon salt and black pepper to taste. While whisking constantly, slowly drizzle in 3 tablespoons olive oil until the mixture is thickened. Remove the skin from the chicken, shred the meat and combine with the vinaigrette. Roughly chop the chicken skin and set aside.
  • In a 10-inch skillet over high heat, add 1 teaspoon olive oil. When oil is shimmering, add the chicken skin and capers. Cook while stirring occasionally until the skin is crisp and the capers are beginning to brown, about 4 minutes. Transfer to a plate lined with paper towels to drain any excess oil.
  • In the same pan over medium heat, add 2 tablespoons olive oil, bread cubes, the remaining smashed garlic clove, 1 sprig of fresh thyme or 1 sprig of fresh oregano and 1/4 teaspoon salt. Cook while stirring occasionally until toasted and golden, about 5 minutes. Remove from the heat and cool completely. When cool, discard the garlic and thyme and add bread cubes to the tomato mixture. Add the leaves of the remaining uncooked thyme or oregano, the shredded chicken and toss to combine. Transfer to a platter or individual plates and serve garnished with the capers, chicken skin, chopped basil, and freshly ground black pepper.

Categories     Food & Cooking     Ingredients     Meat & Poultry     Chicken     Chicken Breast Recipes

Time 50m

Number Of Ingredients 10

4 chicken cutlets (1 pound total), or 2 boneless, skinless chicken breasts, halved horizontally (to make 4 cutlets)
Kosher salt and freshly ground pepper
1/4 cup extra-virgin olive oil
3 slices sourdough bread (each 1/2 inch thick), crusts removed, torn into 1/2-inch pieces (3 cups)
1 pound mixed tomatoes, such as heirloom and cherry, halved or quartered if large
2 tablespoons capers, drained and rinsed
1 cup thinly sliced celery hearts (from 2 stalks), plus 1/4 cup packed inner leaves
1 tablespoon sherry vinegar
4 ounces fresh mozzarella, torn into pieces (1/2 cup)
1/2 cup packed fresh basil leaves

Steps:

  • Season chicken with salt and pepper. Heat 1 tablespoon oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium-high. Add half of chicken and cook, flipping once, until browned and cooked through, about 6 minutes total; transfer to a plate. Repeat with remaining chicken and 1 more tablespoon oil.
  • Reduce heat to medium; add 1 tablespoon oil to skillet, then bread and juices from chicken plate. Cook, stirring, until golden, 5 minutes. Let cool slightly. Transfer to a bowl with tomatoes, capers, celery hearts and leaves, vinegar, and 1 tablespoon oil. Season with salt and pepper. Fold in cheese and basil; serve with sliced chicken.

Tips:

  • Use fresh, ripe ingredients. This will ensure that your panzanella is bursting with flavor.
  • Do not overdress the salad. A little bit of dressing goes a long way, and you don't want to mask the flavors of the other ingredients.
  • Let the salad rest for at least 30 minutes before serving. This will allow the flavors to meld and develop.
  • Garnish the salad with fresh herbs, such as basil or parsley, for a pop of color and flavor.

Conclusion:

Panzanella is a versatile and delicious salad that can be enjoyed as a light lunch, hearty dinner, or refreshing side dish. With its combination of fresh vegetables, crispy chicken skin, and tangy dressing, panzanella is sure to please everyone at your table. So next time you're looking for a new salad recipe to try, give panzanella a try. You won't be disappointed!
