Round 2 Recipe Chicken Cacciatore

Steps:

• Season the chicken pieces with salt and black pepper.
• Place the flour in a shallow bowl. Press each chicken piece into the flour and tap off excess.
• Heat the olive oil in a large Dutch oven over medium heat until almost smoking hot.
• Pan-fry the chicken until golden brown on both sides, about 3 minutes per side. Work in batches so as to not overcrowd the pan. Set the browned chicken aside.
• Stir the onion, green bell pepper, and garlic into the Dutch oven; cook, stirring occasionally, until tender, about 5 minutes.
• Stir in the mushroom; cook until they release their juice, 5 to 8 more minutes.
• Mix in oregano, tomatoes, tomato paste, white wine, and chicken stock; bring to a boil.
• Return the chicken pieces to the sauce, cover the pan, reduce heat to medium-low, and simmer until the chicken is no longer pink inside and the juices run clear, 30 to 40 minutes.
• Stir in capers and sprinkle with basil to serve.

Steps:

• Cook the pasta according to package directions.
• In a large skillet over medium heat, heat the olive oil. Add the garlic and leftover grilled vegetables. Stir in the diced tomatoes, chicken, and salt and pepper to taste. Cook until heated through.
• Drain the pasta, add to the skillet and toss to coat. Serve topped with chopped basil.
• Preheat a grill pan over medium heat. Brush the sliced vegetables with 1/4 cup canola oil. Season with salt and pepper and place on the grill. Cook until they have slightly charred and softened slightly, about 3 minutes per side. Remove to a baking sheet.
• In a large bowl, whisk together the garlic, Italian seasoning, vinegar, remaining 1/4 cup canola oil, and salt and pepper to taste. Drizzle half of the dressing over the grilled vegetables. Stir the chopped olives into the remaining dressing.
• Cut the bread into 4 equal pieces and slice open. Spread the olive dressing evenly on 4 bottom pieces of the bread. Top with a single layer of each of the vegetables, reserving the remaining vegetables for Round 2 Recipe Ratatouille Pasta. Sprinkle the cheese over each and place the remaining 4 bread pieces on top. Place in a panini press and cook until well toasted, about 5 minutes. (Or place on a well-oiled grill pan and place a heavy hot cast-iron skillet or griddle on top of the sandwiches, and grill until the bread is well toasted, about 5 minutes per side.)

Steps:

• Put the chicken into a large pot, cover it with water, and add a big pinch of salt. Cover and bring it to a boil over high heat. Reduce to a simmer, skim the scum, and cook until the chicken is cooked through, 35 to 40 minutes. Remove the chicken. Strain the broth and put it back into the pot over medium heat.
• When the chicken is cool enough to handle, shred the meat and discard the skin and bones. Add the coconut milk, chile, scallion, ginger, lime juice, and chicken to the broth and simmer for 10 minutes. Taste and adjust the seasoning with salt and pepper. Serve in bowls garnished with cilantro.

Steps:

• In a large bowl mix together the buttermilk with the hot sauce. Add chicken pieces and turn to completely coat. Let sit in the refrigerator for 30 minutes.
• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
• In a large zip top bag combine the breadcrumbs, poultry seasoning, and salt and pepper, to taste. Remove chicken pieces from buttermilk and drain excess liquid. Place the chicken in breadcrumb mixture a few pieces at a time and shake to coat completely. Remove chicken from bag and place on a nonstick baking sheet and bake for 30 to 40 minutes until breadcrumbs are golden brown and chicken reaches an internal temperature of 175 degrees F.

Steps:

• Chop the chicken into small pieces. Slice the 2 grilled scallions and combine them with the chopped chicken. Slice the uncooked scallion and set aside for garnish.
• Put the wrappers onto a clean work surface and put 1 teaspoon of the chicken into the center. Dip a finger into some water and moisten the edges of the wonton. Fold the wrapper over and pinch the edges together, making 3 or 4 pleats. Repeat with remaining ingredients.
• Heat a large nonstick skillet with canola oil over medium heat. When the oil is hot, add the wontons in 1 layer. Let cook until the bottoms are browned, about 2 to 3 minutes, then add 2 tablespoons water. Quickly cover and cook until the wrappers are tender, about 3 minutes.
• Whisk together the soy sauce, vinegar, sugar, and 2 tablespoons water in a small bowl. Stir until the sugar has dissolved and set aside.
• Arrange the pot stickers on a serving platter, garnish with the reserved sliced scallions and serve with the dipping sauce.

Steps:

• Heat a Dutch oven over medium heat. Season the chicken with salt and pepper to taste. When the pot is hot, add the olive oil. Add the chicken and sear it on both sides until it is golden brown, about 4 minutes. Transfer the chicken to a plate and set it aside.
• Add the mushrooms and bell peppers to the Dutch oven. Season the vegetables with salt and pepper, and cook until they have softened a little bit, about 8 minutes.
• Add the wine and cook until it has reduced by half. Add the marinara sauce and the basil, and bring the sauce to a simmer. Add the browned chicken, pushing each piece down in order to submerge it as much as possible in the sauce. Cover the pot and bring the stew to a simmer. Then reduce the heat to medium-low and simmer, covered, until the chicken is cooked through and tender, about 15 minutes. Season with salt and pepper to taste, if desired, and serve.
