Categories     main-dish

Time 30m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 12

4 thin skinless, boneless chicken breasts (about 1 pound)
1 tablespoon plus 2 teaspoons sambal oelek
2 tablespoons plus 1 teaspoon low-sodium soy sauce
Kosher salt and freshly ground pepper
1/3 cup creamy peanut butter
2 tablespoons rice wine vinegar
8 ounces thin spaghetti
3 small heads baby bok choy, chopped
2 tablespoons vegetable oil
4 ounces snow peas, halved on an angle
1 red bell pepper, thinly sliced
2 scallions, thinly sliced

Steps:

  • Bring a large pot of water to a boil. Toss the chicken with 1 tablespoon sambal oelek, 1 teaspoon soy sauce and a pinch each of salt and pepper. In a separate bowl, whisk the remaining 2 teaspoons sambal oelek and 2 tablespoons soy sauce, the peanut butter, vinegar, 3 tablespoons water, 1/4 teaspoon salt and a few grinds of pepper.
  • Salt the boiling water; add the spaghetti. Cook 1 to 2 minutes less than the label directs for al dente, adding the boy choy in the last 2 to 3 minutes. Reserve 1 cup cooking water, then drain.
  • Heat 1 tablespoon vegetable oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Add the chicken and cook until just cooked through, 3 to 4 minutes per side. Remove to a cutting board.
  • Return the skillet to medium-high heat and add the remaining 1 tablespoon vegetable oil. Add the snow peas and bell pepper; cook, stirring, until crisp-tender, 1 to 2 minutes. Add the spaghetti and bok choy and a pinch each of salt and pepper; cook until combined, 3 to 5 minutes. Add half the peanut sauce and 1/2 cup of the reserved cooking water. Toss to coat, adding more cooking water as needed. Stir in all but 2 tablespoons scallions. Season with salt.
  • Slice the chicken. Divide the noodles and chicken among bowls. Top with the remaining peanut sauce and reserved scallions.

1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil
8 ounces white mushrooms, sliced (about 4 cups)
Kosher salt and freshly ground pepper
2 tablespoons unsalted butter
2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
1 1/2 cups whole milk
1 cup low-sodium chicken broth
1/4 teaspoon freshly grated nutmeg

ROSEMARY-GARLIC ROASTED CHICKEN AND GNOCCHI



Rosemary-Garlic Roasted Chicken and Gnocchi image

The classic combination of chicken, potatoes, rosemary, garlic and lemon dazzles in this sheet-pan meal. Standing in for the potatoes are shelf-stable potato gnocchi, which offer many textures at once when roasted instead of boiled: pillowy-soft, crisp and chewy. Squeeze some lemon right onto the sheet pan, and as you scrape up the schmaltzy, garlicky bits, the juices and drippings glaze the gnocchi, leaving no drop of the chicken's renderings wasted. It's hard not to eat the gnocchi right from the pan, but if you can wait, serve everything alongside a green salad.

Categories     dinner, weeknight, poultry, main course

Time 45m

Yield 4 to 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 8

2 1/2 to 3 pounds bone-in, skin-on chicken thighs (6 to 8 pieces)
Kosher salt (Diamond Crystal)
Black pepper
1/4 cup extra-virgin olive oil
6 garlic cloves, finely grated
1 tablespoon chopped rosemary (from 2 sprigs)
2 (12- to 18-ounce) packages shelf-stable potato gnocchi
1 lemon

Steps:

  • Heat the oven to 450 degrees. Pat the chicken dry, then transfer to a sheet pan and season all over with 1½ teaspoons salt and a few grinds of pepper. In a liquid measuring cup or small bowl, combine the olive oil, garlic and rosemary with a fork. Season generously with salt and pepper.
  • Add the oil mixture and the gnocchi to the chicken. Toss with your hands to coat, massaging the garlic and rosemary into the chicken and gnocchi. Arrange the gnocchi in an even layer, and place the chicken skin side up on top of the gnocchi. Roast until the chicken is cooked through and golden brown, 35 to 40 minutes.
  • Transfer the chicken to plates and finely grate the zest of half the lemon over the chicken. Squeeze the juice of half the lemon onto the gnocchi (about 1½ tablespoons), then use a spoon to scrape up the browned bits on the sheet pan and toss the gnocchi in the lemon juice and pan drippings. Season to taste with salt and pepper. Cut the remaining lemon into wedges. Eat the chicken with the gnocchi and a lemon wedge for squeezing over.

This wonderful recipe is a family favorite of ours - and we have 3 very young children! Everyone who enjoys this recipe always asks what restaurant we ordered it from! It is fast and simple to make. I would say it's a bit like a stir fry with a Thai flavor! Serve on top of cooked brown or classic white rice. Very good with a simple side like mandarin oranges to complete this meal
