Spanish Style Chicken Salad Recipes

Steps:

• Place chicken gizzards in a large saucepan and pour in enough water to cover. Simmer over low heat until tender, approximately 30 minutes.
• While gizzards are simmering, mix together onion, bell pepper, garlic, vinegar, oil, bay leaves, olives, and peppercorns in a large bowl. When ready, drain gizzards and mix into bowl. Season with salt to taste and marinate at least an hour in refrigerator.

Steps:

• Heat oil in a large, heavy skillet over medium heat. Stir in onion, and cook until tender, about 5 minutes.
• Mix rice into skillet, stirring often. When rice begins to brown, stir in chicken broth and salsa. Reduce heat, cover and simmer 20 minutes, until liquid has been absorbed.

Steps:

• Dice the potatoes; boil until just tender, then rinse in cold water.
• Blanch the asparagus spears in boiling water for 2 minutes; drain and rinse with cold water. Cut into 2-inch pieces.
• Chop the red pepper. Slice the radishes and olives.
• In a large bowl, toss together the chicken, salami, potatoes, pepper, peas, radishes and olives.
• In a smaller bowl, whisk together the sherry, olive oil, vinegar and pepper. Pour over salad and chill.
• To serve: Slice the red onion. Chop the hard boiled eggs and fold into the chicken mixture. Line salad bowls with Boston lettuce leaves and fill with the chicken salad. Garnish with asparagus spears, chopped parsley and red onion rings.

Steps:

• Squeeze the garlic out of the skins and whisk together with the oil, lemon zest, juice, smoked paprika and some seasoning in a large bowl. Add the butter beans, peppers, tomatoes and rocket, and give everything a good mix. Divide between lunchboxes. Top with the chicken on one side and crumble over the feta.
