Stuffed Chicken Thighs With Red Pepper Tomato Sauce Recipes

Steps:

• Heat grill to medium.
• Whisk together the cream cheese and goat cheese in a medium bowl until smooth. Fold in the Cheddar, corn and green onions and season with salt and pepper. Fill each jalapeno half with about 2 tablespoons of the mixture and sprinkle the top with some of the ancho powder.
• Place on the grill, filling-side up and cook until slightly charred and tender, about 7 to 8 minutes. Spoon the red pepper sauce onto a platter and top with the jalapenos.
• Combine the pepper, tomatoes, vinegar, honey and cilantro in a food processor and process until smooth. With the motor running, slowly add oil and season with salt and pepper.

Steps:

• Put the chicken in a medium Dutch oven or heavy pot and add the bell pepper and chicken broth. Bring to a boil. Cover and reduce the heat to medium low; gently simmer until the chicken is just cooked through, about 12 minutes. Transfer the chicken and bell pepper to a plate using a slotted spoon; let cool. Shred the chicken.
• Add the beans to the pot with the broth. Increase the heat to high, cover and cook until crisp-tender, 7 minutes. Transfer the beans to a colander using a slotted spoon, reserving the broth in the pot; rinse under cold water and let drain. Transfer to a medium bowl and toss with the lemon juice, 1 tablespoon olive oil and 1/4 teaspoon salt.
• Meanwhile, lightly toast the almonds in a dry skillet over medium heat, 1 to 2 minutes; remove to a plate and set aside. Add the remaining 1 tablespoon olive oil and the garlic to the skillet. Cook until softened, about 1 minute. Add the bread. Cook, stirring often, until golden, about 5 minutes. Transfer the garlic and bread to a blender or food processor along with the bell pepper, 1/2 cup of the warm broth, 1 tablespoon each capers and parsley, and 1/4 teaspoon salt. Puree until smooth; transfer to a large bowl.
• Add the chicken to the red pepper sauce; season with salt and toss. Top each serving with the remaining capers and parsley; serve the green beans on the side, sprinkled with the almonds.

Steps:

• Wash and pat dry chicken thighs; lay them flat, inside up.
• Slice mushrooms and sauté with salt and pepper until they are brown; remove from heat.
• Wash and stem spinach.
• Chop spinach and add to mushrooms, tossing to wilt.
• Place about 2 tablespoons of this filling on each chicken thigh, evenly dispersing the remaining filling among the thighs as needed.
• Divide cheese among chicken thighs.
• Close the thighs with toothpicks (I used three per thigh) and place in a pie dish.
• Sprinkle paprika, crushed tarragon, and garlic salt over the thighs.
• Drizzle honey over all.
• Add water to the pie pan, cover with foil, and bake at 350°F for 30 minutes.
• Remove foil and bake another 15 minutes.
• Sprinkle remaining cheese over chicken and bake until the cheese is melted.
• Serve with steamed veggies, rice, and a fruit salad.

Steps:

• Spread a little pesto under the skin of each chicken thigh.
• Heat 2 Tbsp of oil in a heavy based saucepan and sauté chicken in batches until lightly browned all over.
• Remove with slotted spoon and reserve whilst sautéing the remainder.
• Heat remaining oil in pan add onions and sauté for 3 minutes.
• Stir in tomatoes and tomato puree.
• Add basil leaves and simmer for 5 minutes.
• Stir in white wine and simmer for 5 minutes more.
• Season to taste.
• Lay peppers in a large ovenproof dish,pour over tomato sauce, top with chicken and sprinkle paprika over.
• Bake at 375°F/190°C for 25 minutes.
• Garnish with some more basil leaves.
• Pesto Sauce: Liquidise all ingredients.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400 degrees F. Use a meat mallet to pound the thighs to an even thickness. Salt and pepper each thigh, and top each thigh first with a slice of prosciutto, and then half a slice of provolone cheese. Mix together the breadcrumbs, Parmesan cheese, egg, basil, parsley, pine nuts and enough milk to moisten. Season with salt and pepper. Take a scoop of this filling and place at one end of each thigh. Roll up firmly, and tie securely with kitchen twine.
• In an ovenproof frying pan, heat the olive oil and butter until very hot. Brown each of the thighs well on all sides. Bake the thighs for 25 minutes or until cooked throughout. Remove the thighs from the pan, and cover to keep warm. Deglaze the pan with the wine over high heat, scraping up all of the browned pieces. Add the chicken broth and reduce this mixture by half over high heat. Add the butter and basil and mix well. Season with salt and pepper.
• Cut the strings on the thighs, and cut each thigh into 4 to 5 slices. Serve warm with the pan juices drizzled over top.

Steps:

• Divide the oil between 2 skillets, and heat it over medium-to-high heat until it is hot. Add the chicken in one layer to the skillets. Sprinkle half the salt over the chicken pieces, and brown them for 5 minutes on one side, then for 5 minutes on the other side.
• Remove the chicken to a platter, and add the onions to the drippings in the skillets. Cook about 2 minutes over high heat to brown the onions lightly. Add the garlic, and cook about 30 seconds longer.
• If using canned tomatoes, divide the tomatoes and their juice between the 2 skillets, breaking up the tomatoes with the edge of the spoon as you mix them in. If using fresh tomato pieces, divide them between the skillets, and add 1/4 cup of water to each skillet. Mix well and bring to a boil.
• Return the chicken pieces to the skillets. Add the remaining salt and the pepper to the mixture, and bring to a boil. Then reduce the heat to low, cover and boil gently for 10 minutes.
• Arrange the chicken on a platter or divide it among six individual plates. Spoon the sauce over the chicken, sprinkle the chopped herbs on top, and serve.
