Shredded Chicken And Walnut Sauce Recipes

Steps:

• Simmer the large onion, carrots, peppercorns, salt, bay leaves and parsley in 1 1/2 quarts of water for 20 minutes. Add the chicken, and continue simmering for 20 minutes longer, just until the chicken is done. Cool the chicken in the broth.
• Meanwhile, heat the walnut oil over very low heat, stirring in 1 teaspoon of the paprika. Set aside in a warm place.
• Soak the bread in a little water, and squeeze it dry.
• Grind the walnuts in a food processor or blender until fine. Spoon into a large bowl, and set aside.
• When chicken is cool enough to handle, remove from broth; discard skin and bones, and tear meat into bite-size pieces and set aside. Strain the chicken stock, and reserve.
• Crumble the bread into the walnuts. Stir in garlic, 1/2 cup minced onion, 1 tablespoon paprika, cayenne and 2 cups of reserved stock. Mix and process in batches to make smooth paste, using more stock as needed to make a thick sauce of pouring consistency. Season with salt.
• Mix half the sauce with the chicken pieces. Arrange the mixture on a serving platter, and pour the remaining sauce over it. Drizzle with hot walnut-paprika oil. Serve cold or at room temperature.

Steps:

• Heat oil in heavy large skillet over high heat. Season chicken with salt and pepper. Add chicken to skillet and sauté until light brown and cooked through, about 5 minutes. Using slotted spoon, transfer chicken to plate. Add bell pepper, shallots, nutmeg and cayenne to skillet and sauté until pepper begins to soften, about 4 minutes. Mix in 1/3 cup walnuts and peas. Add cream and broth and boil until thickened to sauce consistency, about 6 minutes.
• Mix linguine, remaining 1/3 cup walnuts and chicken into sauce. Toss until heated through. Season to taste with salt and pepper. Transfer pasta to bowl. Sprinkle with cheese and serve.

Steps:

• In a large pan, simmer the chicken with water and 1/2 tsp salt until cooked, 20-50 minutes, depending on whether it is bone in or not.
• Strain through cheesecloth or a fine strainer and set chicken aside to cool.
• Boil the water stock down until you have 1 1/2 cups.
• Remove the cooled chicken from the bones while the stock is reducing and chop into 1-inch pieces.
• In a food processor or blender, blend the walnuts, onions and cooled, reduced stock.
• Break the bread into chunks and add to the blender, along with 1/2 tsp paprika, 1 tsp salt and the pepper.
• Blend to a smooth paste.
• Put the chicken pieces in a bowl, pour the walnut paste over, and toss gently to combine.
• Garnish with the remaining paprika and sliced black olives.
• Particularly nice served with fresh fruit.

Steps:

• Mix chicken, soup and seasonings.
• Place in slow-cooker on low.
• Slowly add in crushed crackers as moisture appears during cooking. Usually about a sleeve from the box of Ritz will do it, sometimes more - sometimes less.
• Cook on low for 2 to 4 hours or until is set to your preference.
• Serve on buns.

Steps:

• Heat oven to 200C/180C fan/gas 6. In a roasting tin, toss together the chicken, cumin, paprika, 1 tbsp olive oil and seasoning. Cook for 40 mins until the chicken is crisp and cooked through.
• Meanwhile, tear up 1 pitta bread and place in a small bowl. Pour over a couple of tbsp chicken stock and leave to soak. Dry-fry the walnuts in a frying pan for about 3 mins until golden and toasted. Set aside. Heat the remaining oil in the pan and cook the onion and garlic until softened. Place the softened pitta bread, onion mixture and most of the nuts into a blender. Pour over the rest of the chicken stock and whizz together until a rough paste forms. Return the mixture to the pan. Add the cream and lemon juice, season and keep warm.
• When the chicken is cooked, arrange on a platter. Stir the coriander through the sauce and spoon into a bowl. Roughly chop the remaining walnuts and scatter over the chicken. Toast the pittas, cut into wedges and serve alongside

Steps:

• Turn the heat to medium under a nonstick skillet large enough to hold the chicken pieces without crowding them; use two skillets if necessary. Cook on the first side about 10 minutes, rotating the pieces and adjusting the heat as necessary to brown the pieces evenly. As the pieces brown, season with salt and pepper. Cook the second side as you did the first, then turn once or twice more until done, a total of 20 to 30 minutes. (You can check for doneness by cutting into the pieces; there should be no sign of blood, although traces of pink are all right. The breast and wing pieces will finish cooking first; keep them warm in a low oven, or just set them aside and serve them less than piping hot.)
• Meanwhile, soak the bread in the milk or stock. Put the walnuts, garlic and some salt in the container of a food processor, and pulse to grind coarsely. Gently squeeze some liquid from the bread, and add the bread to the container, along with the oil. Process until combined but not puréed. Add as much of the remaining milk or stock as necessary to give the mixture a mayonnaise-like consistency. By hand, add the paprika or chili powder, and stir in the parsley if you are using it. Taste and adjust seasoning as necessary.
• Serve the chicken hot or at room temperature with the sauce spooned over it.
