Best 6 Spicy Peanut Chicken Chili Recipes

SPICY PEANUT CHICKEN STIR-FRY

Steps:

• Mix chicken broth, soy sauce, cornstarch, sugar, vinegar, and cayenne pepper together in a bowl until sauce is smooth.
• Heat oil in a wok or large skillet over medium-high heat; saute chicken and garlic until chicken is no longer pink in the center, 5 to 10 minutes. Add red bell pepper and saute until slightly tender, about 1 minute.
• Stir sauce into chicken chicken mixture and cook until thickened, about 1 minute. Stir peanuts into chicken mixture and garnish with green onions.

BROILED SPICY PEANUT CHICKEN

Steps:

• Preheat broiler. Mix together peanut butter, 1/4 cup water, sesame oil, soy sauce, sambal oelek, and rice vinegar. Toss chicken thighs and Broccolini in sauce, and place on a rimmed baking sheet. Broil 10 inches from heat until chicken is cooked through, about 10 minutes (watch to make sure it doesn't burn).

THAI PEANUT CHICKEN CHILI

Steps:

• Heat sesame oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add chicken and cook in batches, if necessary, until nicely browned, 5 to 7 minutes.
• At the same time, heat a small amount of water to boiling in a small saucepan. Add carrots and boil until just starting to get tender, about 2 minutes. Drain.
• Heat olive oil in a large pot over medium-high heat; stir in onion, white parts of scallions, garlic, and ginger. Cook and stir until the onion has softened and turned translucent, about 5 minutes.
• Meanwhile, combine coconut milk, peanut butter, 1/4 cup water, Sriracha, lime juice, and salt in a small saucepan over medium-low heat. Cook, stirring often, until peanut butter is melted and mixture is smooth.
• Add cooked chicken, carrots, and peanut sauce to the onion mixture. Stir in beans, scallion greens, and basil until well mixed.
• Simmer over low heat, stirring often, until well blended and heated through, 30 to 40 minutes. The sauce should be a little thin as it cooks; if not, add water until desired consistency.

SLOW COOKER WHITE CHICKEN CHILI

Steps:

• In a large Dutch oven, melt the butter over medium heat. Add the onion, season with salt and cook, stirring occasionally, until the onion is softened and translucent, about 8 minutes. Add the garlic and jalapeño and cook until fragrant, about 1 minute. Add the chopped green chiles, cumin, onion powder, oregano and cayenne and stir until fragrant, 1 to 2 minutes.
• Transfer the mixture into a 5- to 8-quart slow cooker. Generously season the chicken thighs with salt and add them to the pot. Stir in 3 cups chicken stock and the beans. Cover and cook on low until the chicken is tender, 4 to 6 hours.
• Shred the chicken using two forks. (You can do this directly in the pot, or remove the chicken to a bowl, shred it, then return it to the pot.) Stir in the frozen corn, cover and cook until warmed through, about 10 minutes. Stir in the cilantro, if using, and lime juice. Season to taste with salt. Serve in bowls and pass the toppings at the table.

CHILLI CHICKEN & PEANUT PIES

Steps:

• Heat oven to 200C/180C fan/gas 6. Cook the potatoes in a steamer for 15 mins until tender. Meanwhile, start the chicken filling. Heat the oil in a non-stick pan, add the ginger and chilli, and stir over a medium heat until starting to soften. Stir in the dried spices, leeks and peppers. Cook, stirring frequently, until softened.
• Add the chicken and stir-fry until it begins to colour, then tip in the tomatoes, squeeze in some tomato purée and add the bouillon and 150ml water. Cover and simmer for 10 mins.
• Mix the peanut butter with 100ml water, then stir into the stew and cook for 5 mins more. Spoon the mixture equally into two 24 x 18cm shallow pie dishes.
• For the mash, tip the beans into a bowl, add the coriander and chilli powder and mash well. Add the steamed potatoes and roughly mash into the beans so it still has a little texture. Pile on top of the filling in the pie dishes and carefully spread over the filling to enclose it. Bake one of the pies for 35 mins.
• Meanwhile, cook half of the broccoli and serve with the pie. Chill the other pie with the remaining broccoli for another day. Will keep chilled for up to three days. Reheat the remaining pie as above, adding an extra 15 mins to the cooking time.

SPICY SESAME NOODLES WITH CHICKEN AND PEANUTS

Steps:

• In a medium heatproof bowl, stir together the red-pepper flakes, soy sauce and sesame oil. Set next to the stovetop.
• Bring a large pot of salted water to boil. Meanwhile, in a large (12-inch) skillet over medium heat, cook the 1/2 cup oil, peanuts and orange rind, shaking the pan occasionally, until the peanuts are golden and bubbling, 3 to 5 minutes. Immediately pour the contents of the skillet over the red-pepper mixture (be careful of splattering!) and set aside.
• Meanwhile, in the same skillet, heat the remaining tablespoon oil over medium-high. Add the chicken and press it down with a wooden spoon into a thin layer. Season with salt and a generous amount of black pepper and cook, without stirring, occasionally pressing the layer of chicken down, until the bottom is browned, 5 to 7 minutes. Break the chicken up into small pieces and cook, stirring occasionally, until cooked through, 1 to 2 minutes more.
• While the chicken cooks, cook the noodles according to package directions, until chewy but not soft. Drain and toss with a bit of sesame oil.
• Remove and discard the orange rind from the chile oil. Off the heat, add enough chile oil to coat the chicken and stir, scraping up any browned bits from the pan. Add the noodles and toss, adding more chile oil to fully coat the noodles and chicken. (If you don't use all of the chile oil, you can store it in the refrigerator for 2 weeks in an airtight container.) Top with chives and serve at once.
