CHICKEN STIR-FRY WITH MIXED PEPPERS



Chicken Stir-Fry With Mixed Peppers image

I used green peppers only for this stir-fry. Try to use a mix of hot and sweet peppers, and feel free to use red, yellow or orange ones if you want to introduce some color. The chicken is "velveted" before stir-frying; a good name for this technique as the texture of the chicken remains velvety and moist after stir-frying.

Categories     dinner, easy, quick, main course

Time 15m

Yield Serves 4

Number Of Ingredients 12

1 pound boneless, skinless chicken breast, cut across the grain in 1/4-inch thick slices
1 tablespoon egg white, lightly beaten
2 teaspoons cornstarch
1 1/2 teaspoons plus 1 tablespoon rice wine or dry sherry
1/2 teaspoon sugar
2 tablespoons hoisin sauce
1 teaspoon low sodium soy sauce
2 tablespoons peanut oil, rice bran oil or canola oil
1 tablespoon minced ginger
2 fat garlic cloves, minced
1 pound green peppers, with at least one of them a hot pepper such as an Anaheim
1/4 cup cashew pieces

Steps:

  • In a large bowl stir together the egg white, cornstarch, 1 1/2 teaspoons of the rice wine or sherry, salt to taste and 1 1/2 teaspoons water. When you can no longer see any cornstarch add the chicken and stir together until coated. Cover the bowl and place in the refrigerator for 30 minutes.
  • Combine the remaining rice wine or sherry, the hoisin sauce, soy sauce, and sugar in a small bowl and set it near your wok.
  • Fill a medium-size saucepan with water and bring to a boil. Add 1 tablespoon of the oil and turn the heat down so that the water is at a bare simmer. Carefully add the chicken to the water, stirring so that the pieces don't clump. Cook until the chicken turns opaque on the surface but is not cooked through, about 1 minute. Drain in a colander set over a bowl.
  • Heat a 14-inch flat-bottomed wok or 12-inch steel skillet over high heat until a drop of water evaporates within a second or two when added to the pan. Add the remaining oil by pouring it down the sides of the pan and swirling the pan, then add the garlic, ginger and chile and stir-fry for no more than 10 seconds. Add the peppers and stir-fry for 1 minute. Add the chicken, cashews and hoisin sauce mixture and salt to taste. Stir-fry for 1 to 2 minutes, until the chicken is cooked through, and serve with grains or noodles.

SKILLET CHICKEN WITH SILKY PEPPERS AND GREEN OLIVES



Skillet Chicken With Silky Peppers and Green Olives image

Made with diced fresh tomato and colorful sweet bell peppers, this savory chicken dish is lively and bright. Cooked as written, the sauce is on the brothy side, perfect for pouring over rice or couscous, or for sopping up with bread. But if you prefer it to be heartier, remove the chicken pieces from the pan once they're cooked, then simmer to reduce the sauce, stirring occasionally, for another 5 to 8 minutes. Return chicken to the pan and stir in olives, then garnish with herbs to serve.

Categories     weekday, poultry, main course

Time 45m

Yield 4 to 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 12

2 1/4 pounds bone-in, skin-on chicken thighs
2 tablespoons finely chopped fresh oregano (or 2 teaspoons dried)
2 teaspoons kosher salt (Diamond Crystal), plus more to taste
1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
2 red, yellow or orange bell peppers (or a combination of colors)
5 garlic cloves
1 medium fresh tomato
2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil, plus more as needed
1/8 teaspoon red-pepper flakes
3/4 cup pitted, roughly chopped green olives, such as Castelvetrano
1/2 cup roughly chopped fresh parsley, basil, cilantro or a combination
Lemon wedges, for serving (optional)

Steps:

  • Pat chicken dry with paper towels. Season all over with 1 tablespoon oregano, 1 1/2 teaspoons salt and 1/2 teaspoon black pepper. Set aside at room temperature while preparing the vegetables (or refrigerate for up to 24 hours).
  • Slice the peppers into 1/4-inch strips, removing the seeds. Peel and thinly slice the garlic cloves. Chop the tomato.
  • In a large skillet, heat 1 tablespoon oil over medium-high. When the oil thins out and coats the bottom of the pan, add chicken, skin side down, and sear until browned on both sides, 4 to 6 minutes per side. Do this in batches if necessary; don't crowd the pan. Transfer the chicken pieces to a plate as they brown.
  • Add remaining 1 tablespoon oil to the skillet and stir in peppers. Sauté until tender and lightly browned, 6 to 8 minutes. Add garlic, remaining oregano and red-pepper flakes, and cook until garlic is lightly golden, 2 to 3 minutes. Stir in tomato and remaining 1/2 teaspoon salt, and cook until tomatoes begin to release their juices, 3 minutes.
  • Lower heat to a simmer and nestle in the browned chicken, skin side up, pouring in any accumulated juices from the plate. Partly cover the pan and cook until chicken is cooked through and peppers are soft and stewy, 20 to 30 minutes. Taste and add more salt if needed. In the last minute or two of cooking, stir in olives to let them heat up. Remove from heat, and sprinkle parsley or other herbs on top. Garnish with lemon wedges, if you like.

Tips:

  • For a crispy chicken skin, pat the chicken dry before cooking and cook it skin-side down first.
  • To prevent the chicken from drying out, use a meat thermometer to ensure that it is cooked to an internal temperature of 165 degrees Fahrenheit.
  • If you don't have a meat thermometer, you can check if the chicken is cooked by piercing it with a fork. If the juices run clear, the chicken is done.
  • For a more flavorful dish, use a variety of peppers, such as bell peppers, poblano peppers, and jalapeño peppers.
  • If you like spicy food, add a pinch of cayenne pepper or chili powder to the seasoning.
  • Serve the chicken with your favorite sides, such as rice, potatoes, or vegetables.

Conclusion:

This savory chicken with peppers recipe is a quick and easy meal that is perfect for a weeknight dinner. The chicken is tender and juicy, and the peppers are flavorful and colorful. This dish is also a great source of protein and vegetables. So next time you're looking for a simple and delicious meal, give this recipe a try.
