Green Goddess Grilled Chicken Roasted Peppers Atkins Recipes

Steps:

• In a blender, purée buttermilk, basil, chives, garlic, anchovies (if using), scallion, lime zest and juice, salt and pepper until smooth.
• Put chicken halves in a bowl or large heavy-duty resealable plastic bag and cover with three-quarters of the Green Goddess marinade. (Save the rest to serve as a sauce.) Refrigerate for at least 6 hours or up to overnight.
• Heat oven to 500 degrees. Remove chicken from the marinade, shaking off as much liquid as possible, and lay the halves on a rimmed baking sheet. (Discard the used marinade.) Pat chicken tops dry with paper towels and drizzle with oil. Roast until cooked through, about 30 to 45 minutes. Let rest for 10 minutes before serving, with some of the reserved sauce if you like.

Steps:

• Chicken.
• 1. Combine mayonnaise, oil, lemon juice, parsley, scallion, tarragon, garlic, salt, sugar substitute and pepper in a gallon-size resealable plastic bag. Add chicken, seal bag and shake to coat. Refrigerate 1 hour.
• 2. Heat a charcoal or gas grill to medium or heat a grill pan. Grill chicken, turning occasionally, until just cooked through, about 7 minutes.
• Peppers.
• 1. Over an open flame on the stove, or under a broiler, roast peppers until skins are charred on all sides. Place in a paper or plastic bag and seal bag. Let peppers steam 10 minutes. When peppers are cool enough to handle, peel, seed and cut into 1/3-inch-wide strips.
• 2. Transfer to a glass dish, drizzle with olive oil. Peppers will keep refrigerated for up to a week.

Steps:

• Preheat grill or broiler. Season chicken to taste with salt and pepper, and lightly brush with olive oil. Grill or broil, skinside down first, about 10 minutes per side.
• Melt butter in a medium skillet over moderate heat. Cook onions with salt and pepper until soft and clear. Add garlic and paprika, and cook an additional minute, stirring constantly. Add remaining ingredients, bring to a boil, reduce to a simmer, and cook, uncovered, about 5 minutes.
• Place chicken over individual beds of bulgur wheat, rice or pasta. Ladle on sauce and serve.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 425ºF. Line a baking sheet with foil. Place the peppers on the foil and bake in the oven for 30 to 40 minutes, using tongs to turn the peppers every 10 minutes. The peppers are done when their skin is brown and puffed. It won't be black the way it is when you grill them.
• Transfer the peppers to a bowl. Cover the bowl with a plate or with plastic, and let sit for 30 minutes, until cool.
• Carefully remove the skins, then, holding the peppers over the bowl so no juice escapes, separate into halves or quarters and remove the stems, seeds and membranes Cut into strips if desired, and place in another bowl. Strain in the juice. If storing for more than a day, toss with 2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil. Refrigerate until ready to use. If you wish, toss with the optional ingredients shortly before serving.
• Using a Burner: Light a gas burner and place the pepper directly over the flame. As soon as one section has blackened, turn the pepper, using tongs, to expose another section to the flame. Continue to turn until the entire pepper is blackened. Place in a plastic bag and seal, or place in a bowl and cover tightly. Allow to sit until cool, then remove the charred skin. You may need to run the pepper briefly under the faucet to rinse off the final bits of charred skin. If so, pat dry with paper towels. Cut the pepper in half, holding it over a bowl, remove the seeds and membranes, and store as instructed above.
• Using the broiler: Preheat the broiler. Cover a baking sheet with foil. Place the baking sheet under the broiler at the highest setting. Turn the peppers every 3 minutes or so, until uniformly charred. Proceed as above. Using a grill: Place on a grill directly over hot coals and turn as each side becomes charred and blackened. When the entire pepper is charred, remove from the grill and proceed as above.

Steps:

• Heat greased grill to medium heat.
• Grill chicken and peppers 6 to 8 min. on each side or until chicken is done (165°F) and peppers are tender and slightly blackened, brushing chicken with 1 Tbsp. dressing for the last 2 min.
• Remove chicken and peppers from grill; set chicken aside. Cut peppers into strips; place in medium bowl. Add remaining dressing; mix lightly.
• Serve chicken topped with peppers.
