Spicy Lemon Chicken With Brussels Sprouts Recipes

Steps:

• In a greased 3-qt. slow cooker, combine the onion, water, lemon juice, oil and seasonings. Add chicken; turn to coat. Cover and cook on low for 4-5 hours or until a thermometer reads 170°. Remove chicken and keep warm., In a saucepan, combine the cornstarch and cold water until smooth. Gradually add the cooking juices. Bring to a boil; cook and stir for 2 minutes or until thickened. Serve with chicken over noodles. Sprinkle with parsley if desired.

Steps:

• Cook frozen Brussels sprouts as directed on bag, using minimum cook time.
• In 10-inch nonstick skillet, heat oil over medium-high heat until hot. Add chicken; sprinkle with lemon-pepper seasoning. Cook 3 to 4 minutes, stirring constantly, until chicken is no longer pink.
• Reduce heat to low; stir in cooked Brussels sprouts, lemon juice and green onions. Cook and stir about 2 minutes or until hot. Serve over hot cooked rice. Garnish with lemon wedges.

Steps:

• Heat the oven to 450 degrees, set one rack 6 inches from the broiler and place another rack in the lower third of the oven. In a large bowl, combine the butter, zest of both lemons, half the parsley and 1 teaspoon salt. Rub 1 teaspoon oil on a sheet pan. Pat the chicken dry, then transfer to the sheet pan and season well with salt and pepper. Reserve about 1 teaspoon of the compound butter in the bowl, then rub the rest all over the chicken and under the skin by lifting it up, pushing a tiny amount of compound butter underneath, then pressing on top. Arrange the chicken pieces skin-side up.
• Add the brussels sprouts, onion wedges, lemon rounds, red-pepper flakes and the remaining 3 tablespoons olive oil to the bowl with the compound butter; toss to coat. Season with salt and pepper. Arrange the brussels sprouts mixture around the chicken, placing some lemon rounds on top of the vegetables.
• Roast on the lower rack, 30 to 35 minutes, stirring the vegetables halfway through, until the chicken is crispy, the chicken juices run clear when the meat is pierced with a fork, and the brussels sprouts are browned and crunchy. If the chicken skin is not as crispy as you'd like, transfer the vegetables to a serving platter, then place the chicken under the broiler for 1 to 3 minutes. Transfer the chicken to the serving platter.
• Squeeze one of the lemon halves over the chicken and vegetables and cut the remaining lemon half into quarters. Garnish the chicken and vegetables with the cheese and the remaining parsley, and serve with the lemon wedges.

Steps:

• For the chicken: Remove the skin from the chicken breasts and take the breasts off the bone separating out the tenders. Cut the breasts in half lengthwise. Put the breasts between 2 pieces of plastic wrap and pound them thin with a rolling pin or small skillet.
• Put the chicken breasts in a resealable plastic bag, pour the oil into the bag, and add the red pepper flakes, salt and pepper, parsley, thyme, and lemon zest. Mix it all together, seal the bag, put it in a bowl, and refrigerate for at least 2 hours or overnight. Refrigerate the tenders separately.
• Preheat a grill or grill pan over medium heat.
• Oil the grill to prevent the chicken from sticking. When you are ready to cook, remove the chicken from the refrigerator. Put the chicken breasts and tenders on the grill and cook until cooked through, 3 to 4 minutes per side (reserve the chicken tenders for the online Round 2 Recipe Grilled Chicken and Apple Wraps).
• For the salad: In a saucepan with a lid, heat 2 cups water, chicken broth, and 1 teaspoon salt over medium-high heat. Stir in the rice and bring to a boil. Reduce the heat to low, cover, and simmer until the rice is tender, 40 to 45 minutes. Fluff the rice with a fork and spread it out onto a sheet pan to cool.
• In a large bowl, combine the cooled rice, onions, celery, carrots, and mushrooms.
• In a medium bowl, whisk together the lemon juice, brown mustard, canola oil, salt and pepper, to taste, parsley, and thyme. Whisk until well combined. Pour the dressing over the salad and gently toss everything together. (Reserve 2 cups for the Round 2 Recipe Stuffed Peppers.) Cover and refrigerate if not serving right away.
• Serve the breasts while hot with the Brown Rice and Mushroom Salad.

Steps:

• Mix 1 tablespoon of the hot sauce and 1 tablespoon of the honey together in a small bowl and set aside.
• Whisk the garlic powder, onion powder, smoked paprika, 1 tablespoon of the vegetable oil, remaining 2 tablespoons hot sauce, 1 teaspoon salt and a few grinds of pepper together in a large bowl. Add the chicken and toss until combined.
• Heat 2 tablespoons of the vegetable oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Add the panko, 1/4 teaspoon salt and a few grinds of pepper and cook, stirring occasionally, until the panko is golden brown and crispy, 2 to 3 minutes. Remove to a small bowl and stir in the chives; set aside.
• Return the skillet to the stovetop and add the remaining 1 tablespoon vegetable oil.
• Add the chicken and any juices left in the bowl and cook, stirring occasionally, until the chicken is cooked through and no longer pink, 6 to 7 minutes. Fold in the remaining 1 tablespoon of honey until just combined. Remove the chicken to a plate and set aside.
• Add the Brussels sprouts and 3/4 teaspoon salt to the skillet and toss to combine with any residual juices and oil. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the Brussels sprouts are bright green and starting to soften, 3 to 4 minutes. Add the vinegar and cook, stirring, until the sprouts are tender and caramelized, 3 to 4 minutes.
• Divide the Brussels sprouts among four bowls and top each with some chicken. Drizzle the reserved hot sauce-honey mixture over the chicken, then sprinkle each serving with some of the panko mixture.
