Kotopoulo Makaronada Chicken Pasta Recipes

Steps:

• Bring a large pot of lightly salted water to a boil; cook the rotini at a boil until tender yet firm to the bite, about 8 minutes; drain. Transfer to a large bowl and toss with 2 tablespoons olive oil.
• Heat 1 tablespoon olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat; cook and stir ground beef until browned, about 10 minutes. Add tomatoes, onion, water, tomato paste, cinnamon, sugar, cayenne, salt, and pepper; stir to combine. Simmer meat sauce over medium-low heat until flavors combine, 20 minutes.
• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
• Pour meat sauce over rotini; mix well. Pour half the pasta mixture into a casserole dish; sprinkle with half the Mizithra cheese and half the mozzarella cheese. Top with remaining pasta mixture; sprinkle remaining Mizithra cheese and mozzarella cheese.
• Bake in the preheated oven until cheese is melted and bubbling, about 40 minutes.

Steps:

• Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat.
• Add garlic and onion, and saute for 2 minutes.
• Stir in the chicken.
• Cook, stirring occasionally, until chicken is no longer pink and the juices run clear, about 5 to 6 minutes.
• Meanwhile bring a large pot of lightly salted water to a boil.
• Cook pasta in boiling water for 8 to 10 minutes, or until al dente; drain.
• Reduce heat of sauce to medium-low, and add the tomato, feta cheese, parsley, lemon juice and oregano.
• Add pasta stir until heated through, about 2 to 3 minutes.
• Remove from heat, season to taste with salt and pepper, and garnish with lemon wedges.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 355°F (180°C).
• Rinse the chicken and pat dry. Peel the potatoes and cut into quarters, lengthwise. Salt and pepper the chicken and potatoes. Transfer chicken to a roasting pan, and add potatoes, on and around the chicken. Add oregano, garlic, olive oil, and lemon juice, distributing evenly across the pan. Add water and roast uncovered at 355°F for a total of 1 hour and 40 minutes. Half way through (50 minutes), turn the chicken.

Steps:

• Rinse and dry the chicken pieces. Salt and pepper them well.
• In a large sauce pan, heat the oil. Brown the chicken, onions and garlic together.
• Add the tomatoes, chicken stock, bay leaves and spices. Stew the chicken over a slow heat until tender.
• Serve over the pasta of your choice with lots of grated cheese.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 450°F.
• Wash chicken and rub outside and inside with 1 tablespoon olive oil.
• Season skin with salt and pepper.
• Place chicken in a medium-to-large baking pan, preferably glass or clay, and spread orzo evenly around chicken.
• Add remaining oil and other ingredients except cheese and toss in pan to combine.
• Place pan, uncovered, in hot oven and reduce heat to 350°F
• Bake for 1 to 1-1/2 hours, basting chicken every 10 to 15 minutes with pan juices, until chicken is tender and orzo cooked, adding more water, if necessary, during baking if orzo seems too dry.
• Sprinkle with grated cheese before serving.

Steps:

• Put 2 tablespoons olive oil in a large, deep skillet over medium heat. When hot, add shallot, garlic and mushrooms. Cook, stirring occasionally, until mushrooms soften and begin to brown on edges, about 10 minutes. Add pasta and cook, stirring occasionally, until it is glossy and coated with oil, 2 to 3 minutes. Add a little salt and pepper, then wine. Stir and let liquid bubble away.
• Ladle stock into skillet 1/2 cup or so at a time, stirring after each addition and every minute or so. When liquid is just about evaporated, add more. Mixture should be neither soupy nor dry. Keep heat at medium and stir frequently.
• Begin tasting pasta 10 minutes after you add it; you want it to be tender but with a tiny bit of crunch. When pasta is about 3 to 4 minutes away from being done, add chicken and stir to combine. Continue to cook until chicken is done - it will be white on inside when cut - and pasta is how you like it. Taste, adjust seasoning, garnish with parsley and Parmesan if using, and serve.
