SANDRAS MOROCCAN CHICKEN with SAFFRON and PITA TRIANGLES

A ethnic dish that has a complexity
of flavors, spices, and textures that compliment each other,
which you are simply going to love...
Servings: (2 to 4)
Prep: Marinade 2 hrs. |
Cook: 1 Hr. - 15 Mins.

Posted by Sandra

INGREDIENTS

4 bone-in, skinless chicken breasts

***Marinade
½ teaspoon ground pepper
½ teaspoon cinnamon
2 garlic cloves, quartered
1 teaspoon kosher salt
1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
2 tablespoons olive oil

***Sauce
1 tablespoon butter
1 tablespoon olive oil
1 large onion, finely chopped
2 garlic cloves, minced
½ teaspoon cinnamon
½ teaspoon fresh ginger, grated
½ teaspoon kosher salt
½ teaspoon ground pepper
1 (15 oz. can) diced fire-roasted tomatoes, drained
¼ cup calamata olives, quartered lengthwise
1 cup low-sodium chicken broth
Pinch saffron threads (soaked in ¼ cup hot tap water)
2 tablespoons honey (for recipe, click here: Sandras Homemade Alaska Fireweed Honey)
1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice

***Garnish & Serving Options:
2 tablespoons slivered almonds, toasted (for garnish)
2 tablespoons fresh cilantro, chopped (for garnish)
2 to 4 slices of pita bread, each cut into quarters, forming triangles for serving

METHOD

Combine the chicken with the marinade ingredients in a shallow non-reactive baking dish, covered, and leave in refrigerator to marinate for two hours.

Drain the chicken, and pat dry with paper towels, and remove all the garlic pieces (or else they will burn during the following searing process.) Melt the butter and olive oil in a dutch oven over medium-high heat, and add the chicken and sauté, until golden brown on all sides, about 5 to 7 minutes. Remove the chicken to a plate and cover with foil, and set aside.

Meanwhile, place the saffron threads into 1/4 cup of hot tap water, and set aside to let soak for 20 minutes (reserving both liquid and threads).  In a small dry and nonstick skillet, toast the pine nuts over low heat, just until fragrant, and set aside to cool.

After chicken is seared, reduce the heat under dutch oven to low, and add the onion to caramelize by slowly cooking, stirring often, until onions are golden brown, about 20 minutes. Add the garlic, cinnamon, ginger, kosher salt, and pepper and cook 1 minute. Add the tomatoes, and cook for 5 minutes. Add the black olives, chicken broth, saffron with soaking water, honey, lemon juice, and the reserved chicken (including any juices the chicken has given off on the plate), and bring to a boil, then reduce heat to a simmer and cover the dutch oven for 20 minutes. Remove the cover and continue simmering to reduce the sauce for another 15 minutes. Taste sauce for seasonings, adding kosher salt and ground pepper, if need be.

Serve the Moroccan Chicken on a rimmed platter, and garnish with toasted almonds and cilantro, including placing pita triangles along the perimeter for sopping up the sauce (BTW: This dish is meant to be eaten with clean fingers and pita bread as your utensils. – Enjoy!


~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~


Tips: For an even heartier meal, you might also wish to serve this dish with couscous, orzo, or steamed rice.


Also, most moroccan recipes call for raisins to be added at the end of the cooking process, although I do not particularly care for them, but feel free if you choose to do so ;-)

Summers Lighter Version of Chicken Parmesan



Chicken Parmesan is a standard at most Italian Restaurants and a favorite among diners of all ages. It also is quick to rack up the calories particularly after the initially healthy boneless skinless chicken breast is breaded, pan fried and covered in cheese. If you are like me, however, and are perpetually watching the scale tick, tick, tick ever higher and constantly fighting to keep the pounds at bay, this version provides all the flavor with much less guilt.

The place to start is with an easy homemade marinara sauce.  Just a few ingredients will result in deliciousness without much effort at all.  If, however, you are short on time, have a favorite jarred brand or just simply dont want to make homemade sauce for whatever reason, you are off the hook with me.  Grab your favorite standby and skip on to the next step.  For those who wish, here goes...

Easy Marinara Sauce  
1/4 cup extra virgin olive oil (the good stuff in absolutely necessary, feel free to sub. reg. olive oil)
1 large garlic clove, minced
1/4 teaspoon red pepper flakes (optional)
1 large can whole Italian tomatoes (San Marzano variety is my fav. pick but any will do the job)
1 teaspoon kosher or sea salt
2 teaspoons sugar
1 teaspoon dried oregano
bunch basil leaves, torn
splash (or two, or...) of red wine (optional)

In a large saucepan, add olive oil, garlic and red pepper flakes.  Turn on burner heat to low and let the oil come slowly up to temperature until garlic becomes fragrant and begins to sizzle.  Do not allow garlic to brown, however.  Next, add the can of whole tomatoes, salt, sugar, oregano and wine if using.  Stir together and allow to gently simmer for about 15 minutes.  Once tomatoes begin to soften and break down after approx. 15 min. mash with a potato masher for a chunkier sauce or use an emmersion blender to a smooth sauce. Let simmer until thickened, approximately 10 min. more.  Add torn basil, taste and adjust seasonings and remove from heat. 

Marinara Sauce

Next step is to preheat your grill.  You should feel free to use whatever grill you prefer whether that is an indoor grill pan, an outdoor charcoal grill (just set it up for indirect heat cooking) or a gas grill set to a med. to med. high temperature. 

Take your boneless skinless chicken breasts and pound them out, between two pieces of plastic, until they are of a uniform thickness so they will cook evenly.  Season them liberally with salt, pepper and a good glug of olive oil.  Grill them (time will depend on the method you use) until they are almost cook through. 

Place the chicken breasts on a plate on "stand by" while you get set up to assemble the remaining ingredients.  Be sure to preheat the oven to about 375 degrees.  Place several spoonfulls of the marinara of your choice in the bottom on a casserole pan large enough to comfortably fit your chicken breasts without over crowding.  Most likely a 9x12 should do the trick.  Then, place the grilled chicken breasts atop the sauce and cover with a bit more sauce.  Top each chicken breast with a cheese blend of your choice.  This is the perfect time to use some lowfat Italian cheese blend, or perhaps even some fresh mozzerella, your choice.  You will want to top it with shaving of  Parmesan cheese (or I guess it wouldnt be chicken parmesan).  Bake in the oven for approximately 15-20min. or until the cheese it melted, the sauce is bubbly and the chicken it cooked through (165 degrees).

Serve remaining sauce with  side of pasta and a green salad for a delicious, healthful, easy and budget minded meal.

Chicken Kabobs


Chili-Lime Chicken Kabobs
submitted by Brittany ~ The Sister’s Cafe

2 large chicken breast halves (boneless, skinless), about 1.5 lbs
1 sweet red pepper
1 sweet onion

6 Tb olive oil
3 Tb red wine vinegar
2 limes, juiced (4 Tb)
1 1/2 tsp chili powder
1 tsp paprika
1 tsp onion salt
2 tsp minced garlic cloves
1/4 tsp cayenne pepper (more if you like it spicy)
1/2 tsp salt
1/2 tsp freshly ground black pepper

Cut chicken and pepper into 2 inch pieces. Peel onion and cut into quarters. Slice through each quarter to make 8 chunks. (When you pull apart the onion layers, the outer layers should now be in roughly 2 inch pieces) Set aside.

In a small bowl, whisk together the olive oil, vinegar, and lime juice. Stir in spices. Marinate chicken and vegetables for 4-6 hours or overnight. (You can place the chicken and vegetables in separate shallow containers. I make sure the chicken is covered with marinade first. Any leftover marinade, use for the vegetables.)

Preheat the grill to medium heat. Thread chicken, pepper, and onion onto metal skewers and discard the marinade. Grill skewers, turning occasionally, for 10-15 minutes, or until juices run clear.


We found this recipe at The Sisters Cafe blog... They have some yummy recipes that you should check out!

Coconut Chicken Curry Recipe


Here is my coconut chicken curry recipe!

If you are vegetarian, then try reading my vegetable curry recipe


This chicken curry recipe is easy to cook and full of wonderful flavours, the taste of all the aromatic spices and coconut are so comforting to eat, it is thick and creamy in texture and very tasty, I use healthy olive oil in my recipe with no cream or dairy products.

The smell of this coconut chicken curry will make your mouth water as it is so very delicious.

So lets now enter Jeenas Kitchen and lets get cooking....Simply follow my step-by- step photo tutorial guide below:




Ingredients for my Coconut Chicken Curry Recipe

5 Skinless Leg and Thigh Chicken Pieces
3 Small Onions (chopped)
3-4 Shallots (sliced)
1 Large Red Chilli (de-seeded diced)
1/4 Cup Dried Raw Shredded Coconut (ground down in blender)
Olive Oil
Fresh Coriander Leaves

For the Curry Base

3 Small Carrots (chopped)
1/4 Celeriac (peeled, chopped)
1/2 Leek (washed, chopped)

For the Spices

1 tsp Turmeric
1 tsp Cumin Powder
2 tsp Coriander Powder
1 tsp Garam Masala
6 Small Green Cardamon Pods
Pinch Fennel Seeds
Pinch Cumin Seeds
Pinch Coriander Seeds
3 Inch Fresh Ginger and 2 Garlic Cloves (Ground together with a little water into a paste)
Salt and Pepper (optional)
Pinch Dried Methi/Fenugreek Leaves
Pinch Crushed Dried Curry Leaves

Note...I use chicken on the bone because it gives the curry a lot more flavour, you can however use chicken breast pieces if you like.

Getting started on Jeenas Coconut Chicken Curry Recipe..


In a small pan boil you 3 small carrots, celeriac and leek until soft. Drain vegetables and keep the water you strain off them.

Blend the vegetables up in a food processor to form a very thick soup texture paste, add some of the water your saved if they need loosening up.

Leave to the side until later.

(As an alternative you can use some of my butternut squash soup recipe as a base, it works very well with this recipe)




Fry your 3 small onions in a large pan with some olive oil for a few minutes on a medium heat, be generous with the oil.



Add your skinless chicken peices to the onions and cook until they are white all over.



Add your fennel, cumin, coriander seeds and cardamon pods cook for a minute stiring the seeds around. Add your garlic and ginger paste, stir well.




Add your turmeric powder stir well then add your chillis.

If needed drizzle a little more oil in the pan.




Now add your blended vegetable base mix you cooked earlier. Add your coriander, and cumin powders.

Then add your dried curry leaves and dried methi/fenugreek leaves. Stir well cover with a lid then leave to simmer for 20 minutes.




After 20 minutes simmering add your garam masala with a little oil and stir well, leave for another 20 minutes simmering.



After 40 minutes your chicken should be cooked through (check if chicken is cooked by checking inside the bone with a fork, if it is still pink or bloody you need to return it too the pan to cook for longer).

Remove all the chicken from the pan onto a plate with two forks remove all the chicken meat off the bones.

Feedback from a previous curry recipe post:

I have had "excellent feedback" on Jeenas curry
recipes in the past :

Take a look at rosie bakes food blog who
cooked my chicken korma recipe.

With your coconut chicken curry why not try..

Serve with fresh rice, naan bread or buckwheat & mung bean dosa,
low fat healthy oven chips

For a light sweet afterwards...

Why not try my easy egg custard recipe or perfect sponge cake recipe
