Chicken Escabeche image

Chicken breasts, onions, and carrots stew in vinegar and wine for a tangy South American escabeche meal. This is delicious served over rice or quinoa. This dish can be served immediately but it is even better if served at room temperature after the flavors have had some time to meld.

Time 45m

Yield 2

Number Of Ingredients 14

3 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
12 ½ ounces skinless, boneless chicken breast halves
3 ½ ounces carrots, julienned
3 ½ ounces white onion, thinly sliced
3 ½ ounces red onion, thinly sliced
2 bay leaves
1 clove garlic, minced
1 teaspoon ground black pepper
½ teaspoon salt
¼ cup red wine vinegar
¼ cup dry white wine
¼ cup water
1 teaspoon achiote powder
½ teaspoon cayenne pepper

Steps:

  • Heat oil over medium-high heat in a Dutch oven. Add chicken to the hot oil and brown on 1 side, about 5 minutes. Flip chicken; add carrots, white onion, red onion, bay leaves, garlic, black pepper, and salt. Mix until vegetables have softened and chicken has browned, about 8 minutes.
  • Pour red wine vinegar, white wine, and water into the Dutch oven. Sprinkle with achiote powder and cayenne; stir well. Reduce heat to medium. Cover and simmer until chicken is no longer pink in the center and an instant-read thermometer inserted into the center reads at least 165 degrees F (74 degrees C), about 15 minutes.

This recipe is very versatile. You can easily swap out different vegetables or use a different type of vinegar. I've even made it with fish instead of chicken. It's always delicious!

This dish is a lifesaver for busy weeknights! It comes together quickly and easily, and the leftovers are just as good the next day. I often make a double batch so I have some for lunch the following day.

This recipe is a great option for those looking for a healthier meal. The chicken is baked instead of fried, and the vegetables add a boost of nutrients. Plus, the sauce is made with olive oil, which is a heart-healthy fat.

I added a bit of chili pepper flakes to the sauce for a touch of heat, and it turned out amazing! The spice level was just right, and it really complemented the other flavors in the dish.

I love how this dish combines different flavors and textures. The sweetness of the vinegar and sugar pairs perfectly with the tangy olives and capers. And the crispy fried chicken adds a nice contrast to the soft, tender vegetables.
