SPINACH AND RED PEPPER-STUFFED CHICKEN



Spinach and Red Pepper-Stuffed Chicken image

Provided by Valerie Bertinelli

Categories     main-dish

Time 55m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 13

10 ounces frozen spinach, thawed and squeezed dry
One 12-ounce jar roasted red peppers, drained, patted dry and chopped
1/2 cup panko breadcrumbs
1/4 cup grated Parmesan
1/4 teaspoon smoked paprika
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
4 small chicken breasts (about 8 ounces each)
2 tablespoon olive oil
1 shallot, grated or chopped
1/4 cup dry white wine
1 cup chicken broth
1 tablespoon unsalted butter, cold
Chopped fresh parsley, for garnish

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F.
  • Mix together the spinach, peppers, breadcrumbs, Parmesan, smoked paprika, 1/4 teaspoon salt and a few grinds of pepper in a small bowl. Set aside.
  • Butterfly the chicken: Holding your knife parallel to the cutting board, slice a breast through the middle, stopping about 1/2-inch short of the other side. Open the breast up like a book and flatten it with your palm. Place between two pieces of plastic wrap and pound with a meat mallet to a little less than 1/2-inch thick. Repeat with the remaining breasts.
  • Divide the spinach mixture into four portions and place a portion in the center of each breast. Roll the breasts tightly around the filling and secure with kitchen twine. Sprinkle all over with salt and pepper.
  • Heat the oil in a large, oven-safe skillet over medium-high heat. Add the roll-ups and cook until golden brown on all sides, about 6 minutes. Transfer the skillet to the oven and cook until an instant-read thermometer inserted into the center of the filling registers 160 degrees F, another 6 to 8 minutes.
  • Transfer the roll-ups to a cutting board and cover loosely with foil. Return the skillet to the stovetop over medium heat (be careful, the handle will be very hot). Add the shallots and cook until softened, stirring, about 1 minute. Add the wine and boil until reduced by half, 1 to 2 minutes. Add the chicken broth; boil until reduced by half, about 3 minutes. Off the heat, whisk in the butter and season with salt and pepper.
  • Cut away the twine and slice the chicken into 1-inch rounds. Serve with the pan sauce and sprinkle with parsley.

Roast Chicken with Bell Peppers, Lemon, and Thyme image

How to pull off a weeknight roast chicken: Set it over a bed of peppers for a two-for-one deal.

Provided by Claire Saffitz

Categories     Bon Appétit     Dinner     Chicken     Bell Pepper     Thyme     Lemon     Chile Pepper     Wheat/Gluten-Free     One-Pot Meal

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 8

4 large bell peppers (any color)
1 large shallot, thinly sliced
1 Fresno chile, thinly sliced crosswise
5 sprigs thyme, divided
Kosher salt, freshly ground pepper
1/4 cup plus 1 Tbsp. extra-virgin olive oil
1 (3 1/2-4-lb.) chicken, patted dry
1 lemon, halved

Steps:

  • Place a rack in middle of oven; preheat to 425°F. Heat a large ovenproof skillet, preferably cast iron, over medium-high. Cook bell peppers in skillet, turning every minute or two, until blistered in several spots, about 5 minutes. (You aren't trying to cook them, just get some color on them.) Transfer bell peppers to a cutting board and let cool slightly; reserve skillet. Stand a pepper upright and slice off sides, working your way around stem in 3 or 4 cuts. Pull out ribs and seeds; discard along with stems. Repeat with remaining peppers.
  • Return peppers to skillet and add shallot, chile, and 3 thyme sprigs. Season generously with salt and black pepper and drizzle 1/4 cup oil over. Season chicken all over with salt and black pepper and set on top of peppers. Place a lemon half and remaining 2 thyme sprigs in chicken cavity and rub skin all over with remaining 1 Tbsp. oil. Roast in oven until skin is golden brown and crisp all over and an instant-read thermometer inserted into the thickest part of breast registers 160°F, 60-80 minutes. Remove from oven (be careful; handle is hot!) and let rest 15 minutes before transferring chicken to a cutting board and carving.
  • Just before serving, squeeze remaining lemon half over chicken and bell peppers.

SHEET-PAN CHICKEN WITH SWEET POTATOES AND PEPPERS



Sheet-Pan Chicken With Sweet Potatoes and Peppers image

This sheet-pan supper brings velvety sweet potatoes together with soft bell peppers, pungent sage and roasted chicken thighs. To counter the rich and caramelized flavors, quick-pickled thinly sliced red onion adds a bright and zippy note right at the end. If you prefer chicken breasts, you can use them here instead of the thighs. Choose bone-in, skin-on breasts if possible, and keep an eye on them. They'll cook faster than the thighs. Remove them when they're ready, but let the vegetables roast until they thoroughly golden and tender.

Categories     weekday, one pot, main course

Time 1h10m

Yield 3 to 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 16

3 tablespoons apple cider vinegar
1 1/2 teaspoons honey
1 medium red onion, thinly sliced
1 1/2 teaspoons kosher salt, more as needed
1 to 2 cloves garlic, grated or minced
1 teaspoon ground coriander
1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
2 pounds bone-in, skin-on chicken thighs (4 to 6 thighs)
2 1/2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
12 ounces sweet potato (1 large), peeled and cut into 1/2-inch cubes
1 large red, yellow or orange bell pepper, thinly sliced
1 1/2 tablespoons finely chopped fresh sage
3/4 teaspoon sweet paprika
1/8 teaspoon cayenne
1/8 teaspoon ground allspice
Cilantro leaves, for serving

Steps:

  • In a small, shallow bowl, mix together vinegar and honey. Mix in half the red onion and a pinch of salt and set aside for garnish, tossing the mixture occasionally as the chicken cooks.
  • In a large bowl, mix together 1 teaspoon salt, garlic, coriander and black pepper. Add chicken to bowl and rub the mixture all over it. Let marinate for 30 minutes.
  • Heat oven to 425 degrees. In a large bowl, toss together 2 tablespoons oil, sweet potato, pepper, remaining onion, sage, remaining 1/2 teaspoon salt, paprika, cayenne and allspice. Spread vegetables out on a rimmed baking sheet.
  • Add remaining 1/2 tablespoon oil to marinated chicken and turn to coat. Place chicken pieces, skin-side up, among the vegetables, making sure chicken is surrounded by them, but not on top of them. (Chicken should rest directly on the baking sheet.)
  • Roast for 15 minutes. Remove pan from oven and raise heat to 450 degrees. Use a wide spatula to flip vegetables over (but not chicken). Drizzle chicken (but not vegetables) with 2 teaspoons liquid from the onion-vinegar mixture. Roast until chicken is cooked through, 15 to 20 minutes longer.
  • To serve, top chicken and vegetables with a spoonful of onion-vinegar mixture and plenty of cilantro leaves.

Simmer until the vermouth is syrupy, then add the broth and bring the mixture to a full boil. Simmer until the sauce thickens, and season with salt and pepper.

2 lemons , juice of 1, the other cut into wedges
4 tbsp olive oil
1 chicken (about 1.6kg/3lb 8oz)

  • Heat oven to 200C/180C fan/gas 6. Mix the crushed garlic and oregano with the lemon juice and 3 tbsp of the oil to make a dressing. Season. Make a few slashes in each chicken leg, then put the chicken in a large roasting tin and rub with 2 tbsp of the dressing. Stuff the squeezed lemon shells inside the body cavity. Roast for 30 mins.
  • Meanwhile, tip the peppers, onions, whole garlic cloves and courgettes into a large bowl, and toss with the remaining oil and some seasoning. After 30 mins, pile the veg around the chicken, drizzle with half the remaining dressing and roast for 1 hr.

Pile around the chicken, scatter with mint sprigs and serve with bread, if you like, to mop up the juices.

CHICKEN BREASTS WITH PEPPERS, TOMATOES AND SAFFRON



Chicken Breasts With Peppers, Tomatoes and Saffron image

Portugal launched great explorations in the 15th and 16th centuries, often in search of spices, and to a large extent, their discoveries defined their national cuisines. They discovered Madeira, the Azores and the Cape Verde Islands. Vasco da Gama, seeking a sea route to India, brought back one of most important spices of all, black pepper. Exploration of the New World turned up sweet and hot peppers, corn, all varieties of beans, tomatoes, vanilla, avocados, chocolate, squashes and guavas (from which chewing gum is made). These discoveries truly revolutionized the kitchens of Europe. This dish has a sauce based on tomatoes and is typical of casseroles found in Portugal. First the peppers, onions and garlic are sautéed in olive oil. Tomatoes and saffron, another spice associated with the Iberian peninsula, are added to this mixture. The chicken is browned first, then slowly cooked. The pan is deglazed with chicken stock and white wine before the other ingredients are combined.

Categories     dinner, one pot, main course

Time 30m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 13

2 tablespoons olive oil
3 cups cored seeded sweet red, green and yellow peppers, cut into thin strips
1 cup thinly sliced onions
1 tablespoon finely chopped garlic
Salt and freshly ground pepper to taste
1 cup canned crushed tomatoes
1/4 teaspoon saffron stems or 1/2 teaspoon turmeric
2 tablespoons butter
4 boneless skinless chicken breasts, about 1 1/4 pounds
1 tablespoon finely chopped shallots
1/4 cup dry white wine
1/4 cup fresh or canned chicken broth
4 tablespoons finely chopped parsley

Steps:

  • Heat the oil over medium high heat in a skillet. Add the peppers, onions, garlic, salt and pepper. Cook, stirring, about 3 minutes or until crisp tender. Then add the tomatoes and saffron. Cover and simmer 10 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, melt the butter in a skillet large enough to hold the chicken breasts in one layer. Season the chicken with salt and pepper. Cook over medium heat until lightly browned, about 4 minutes. Turn the pieces, reduce the heat and cook about 5 minutes or until done. Do not overcook. Transfer the chicken to a warm platter and keep it warm.
  • Add the shallots to the skillet and cook until wilted. Do not brown. Pour in the wine and scrape the bottom with a wooden spatula to dissolve any brown particles that may cling to the bottom of the skillet. Reduce the wine almost completely and add the chicken broth. Let this cook until it is almost totally reduced. Add the chicken breasts and any liquid that may have accumulated. Add the pepper and tomato mixture, bring to a simmer and add the parsley. Serve with rice.

Tips:

  • Choose the right chicken breasts. Look for boneless, skinless chicken breasts that are about the same size so they cook evenly.
  • Use a variety of peppers. This recipe calls for bell peppers, but you can use any type of pepper you like. Poblano peppers, Anaheim peppers, and even jalapeño peppers would all be great additions.
  • Don't overcrowd the pan. When roasting the chicken and peppers, make sure they have enough space to cook evenly. If the pan is too crowded, the food will steam instead of roast.
  • Season the chicken and peppers well. Use a generous amount of salt, pepper, and garlic powder to season the chicken and peppers. You can also add other herbs and spices, such as paprika, cumin, or chili powder.
  • Roast the chicken and peppers until they are cooked through. The chicken should be cooked to an internal temperature of 165 degrees Fahrenheit. The peppers should be roasted until they are slightly charred and tender.

Conclusion:

This recipe for Roast Chicken Breasts with Peppers is a delicious and easy way to enjoy a healthy and flavorful meal. The chicken is juicy and tender, and the peppers are roasted to perfection. Serve this dish with your favorite sides, such as rice, potatoes, or salad.
