Balsamic Chicken With Corn And Swiss Chard Recipes

Steps:

• Slice the stems into 1-inch pieces and reserve. Stack the chard leaves into a pile. Roll together into a bundle and slice into 1/2-inch ribbons.
• Heat the oil in a Dutch oven over medium heat. Add the bacon and saute until browned, rendering the fat. Add the onion and garlic and cook until translucent. Add the red pepper flakes and the chard stems, cook for 3 to 4 minutes and then season with salt and pepper.
• Begin to add the chard ribbons in batches. Once the chard wilts down, add the next batch. Stir occasionally until completely tender, about 5 minutes. Add the balsamic vinegar and serve.

Steps:

• Rinse the chicken and pat dry. Sprinkle with salt and pepper. Dredge the chicken in a mixture of flour, salt, and pepper; shake off any excess flour. Cook the fillets in the olive oil in a saute pan over medium-high heat for 3 minutes on 1 side or until brown. Add the garlic. Turn the chicken over; sprinkle with the mushrooms. Cook for 3 minutes, shaking the saute pan to redistribute the mushrooms so they will cook evenly. Stir in the balsamic vinegar, chicken broth, and wine. Cook, covered, over medium-low heat for 10 minutes, turning the chicken occasionally.

Steps:

• Bring a pot of water to a boil and add salt. Add the rice to the boiling water and cook according to the package instructions.
• Heat the oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. When hot, add the chicken in one layer and season with the red pepper flakes and some salt and pepper. Cook until light brown, about 4 minutes. Flip the chicken, add the bell peppers, garlic, ginger and scallion whites and cook, stirring, for 2 minutes. Stir together the balsamic and brown sugar and add it to the skillet. Cook until the vinegar reduces a bit, about 2 minutes. Mix the cornstarch with 1/4 cup water and add it to the skillet. Cook until the sauce thickens, about 1 minute.
• Remove the rice from the pot and drain. Cut open the bag(s) and serve up. Spoon some of the chicken over the rice and garnish with the sliced scallion greens.

Steps:

• In a large saute pan cook bacon until crisp and remove all grease except for 2-tablespoons.
• Add bacon bits, corn, chopped shallots, chopped garlic and saute until garlic is soft.
• Add Red Swiss Chard, fresh lemon thyme, lemon zest, salt and pepper. Saute until chard starts to wilt, add fresh lemon juice and saute for 1-2 minutes.
• Season with fine sea salt and fresh ground pepper to taste.
• Place the Red Swiss Chard on hot plates and serve.
• Garnish with fresh lemon wedges.

Steps:

• Sprinkle both sides of chicken thighs with salt and pepper. Heat oil in a Dutch oven over medium-high heat until shimmering; add chicken thighs skin-side down and cook without moving them until skin is crisped and well browned, 10 to 12 minutes. Using tongs, turn chicken and brown on second side, about 5 minutes longer. Transfer thighs to large plate.
• Pour off all but 1 teaspoon fat from pot. Add the onion and tomato paste and cook over medium heat, stirring occasionally and scraping bottom of pot with wooden spoon, until tomato paste begins to darken, about 3-4 minutes (if bottom of pot becomes very dark and sticky, stir in 1 to 2 tablespoons water). Add garlic and anchovy and cook, stirring constantly, until fragrant, about 1 minute. Stir in tomatoes, chicken broth, and wine, scraping up browned bits with wooden spoon. Add red pepper flakes, thyme, and bay. Remove and discard skin from chicken thighs, then submerge chicken bone-side up in liquid, adding any chicken juices accumulated on plate. Increase heat to high, bring to simmer, cover, then place pot in oven. Cook until chicken offers no resistance when poked with tip of paring knife but meat still clings to bone, 40 to 55 minutes.
• While chicken cooks, trim stems from Swiss chard. Roughly chop the leaves.
• Also while chicken cooks, simmer balsamic vinegar in a small saucepan over medium-high heat until thick, syrupy, and reduced to 1/3 cup, 3 to 5 minutes (begin measuring volume when vinegar begins to cling to sides of saucepan). Set aside.
• Using a slotted spoon, transfer chicken to plate and tent with foil; discard bay leaf. Bring liquid in Dutch oven to simmer over medium-high heat. Add chard greens and cook until wilted, about 2 minutes. Stir about 1/3 cup sauce into balsamic reduction to loosen, then stir the mixture into the sauce. Taste and adjust seasoning with salt and pepper.
• Return the chicken and any accumulated juices to sauce, cook until heated through, about 2 minutes, turning chicken once or twice. Use a slotted spoon to transfer chard to serving dish or individual bowls; place chicken thighs on chard, then spoon sauce over. Serve immediately.

Steps:

• Heat the olive oil on a large skillet over medium heat. Stir in the garlic and cook until tender and aromatic, about 2 minutes. Add the Swiss chard and balsamic vinegar; cook and stir until the chard is wilted and tender, about 5 minutes. Season with salt and pepper and serve.

Steps:

• Whisk together the balsamic vinegar, chicken broth, sugar, garlic, and Italian seasoning in a bowl, place the chicken breasts in the marinade, and marinate for 10 minutes on each side.
• Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Remove the chicken from the marinade and reserve the marinade. Place the chicken in the heated pan and cook until they start to brown and are no longer pink inside, about 7 minutes per side. Pour the marinade into the skillet, and cook until it thickens slightly, turning the chicken breasts over once or twice, about 5 minutes.
