By
Luke Nguyen

Ingredients


60 ml (¼ cup) fish sauce
1½ tbsp sugar
2 lemongrass stalks, white part only, finely diced
4 garlic cloves, finely diced
2 long red chillies, finely diced
500 g chicken thigh fillets, cut into bite-size pieces
60 ml (¼ cup) vegetable oil
250 ml (1 cup) young coconut juice
½ onion, cut into wedges
3 coriander sprigs, to garnish
jasmine rice, to serve

Cook's notes

Oven temperatures are for conventional; if using fan-forced (convection), reduce the temperature by 20˚C. | We use Australian tablespoons and cups: 1 teaspoon equals 5 ml; 1 tablespoon equals 20 ml; 1 cup equals 250 ml. | All herbs are fresh (unless specified) and cups are lightly packed. | All vegetables are medium size and peeled, unless specified. | All eggs are 55-60 g, unless specified.
Instructions

Marinating time: 1 hour

In a mixing bowl, combine fish sauce and sugar, and mix until sugar has dissolved. Add half of the lemongrass, half of the garlic, half of the chilli and all of the chicken. Coat the chicken, then cover and marinate it in the refrigerator for 1 hour, or overnight for a better result.

Bring a large saucepan or wok to medium heat, add oil and remaining lemongrass, garlic and chilli, and fry until fragrant and slightly brown.

Turn heat to high then add the chicken. Cook for about 2 minutes on each side, until sealing all over.

Add coconut juice and onion. Cover with a lid, then cook on medium heat for 5 minutes or until sauce has reduced by half.

Transfer to a bowl, garnish with coriander and serve with jasmine rice.

Ingredients

1/4 cup good olive oil
3 tablespoons minced garlic (9 cloves)
1/3 cup dry white wine
1 tablespoon grated lemon zest (2 lemons)
2 tablespoons freshly squeezed lemon juice

Spring roasted chicken with tarragon recipe


The Chicken Recipes Kitchen (The home of delicious chicken recipes) invites you to try Spring roasted chicken with tarragon recipe. Enjoy our collection of quick & easy recipes and learn how to make Spring roasted chicken with tarragon.

 Serves 4
5 mins to prepare and 1 hr 20 mins to cook
980 calories / serving
Freezable
Ingredients

1 Everyday Value whole chicken, about 1.3kg (2.9lb)
25g (1oz) Everyday Value unsalted butter, softened
1 x 30g pack fresh tarragon
a sprig of fresh thyme
200ml (7floz) Everyday Value white wine
1 x 300g bag shallots, peeled
1 bulb of Everyday Value garlic
175g Everyday Value unsmoked back bacon rashers, chopped
150g (5oz) Everyday Value peas, defrosted if frozen or blanched if fresh
Everyday Value new potatoes, to serve
Everyday Value mixed vegetables, to serve

Preheat the oven Gas 5, 190°C, 375°F. Put the chicken in a roasting tray. Smear the butter all over and season well. Put a large sprig of the tarragon and the thyme into the cavity and pour the wine around, adding a splash of water as well.

Roast for 30mins, then add the whole shallots, bacon and garlic to the tin. Roast for another 40mins, adding a splash more water if the juices in the roasting tray dry up. Lift the chicken with some tongs so the juices run from the cavity. The chicken is cooked if the juices are clear - if they're still slightly pink, cook for a further 10mins.

Stir the peas into the juices around the bird and scatter with some fresh tarragon. Allow to sit for 10mins, then remove from the roasting tin and carve.

Reduce the juices a little to make some gravy and serve with new potatoes and vegetables or salad.

Cooking tip

If you've got leftover chicken, turn it into a tasty and quick chicken salad. Shred the meat and toss it together with boiled baby new potatoes and mixed salad leaves. Just before serving, dress it with extra virgin olive oil and lemon juice or balsamic vinegar.

The Chicken Recipes Kitchen (The home of delicious chicken recipes) invites you to try Peanut chicken drumsticks with rice and cabbage recipe. Enjoy our collection of quick & easy recipes and learn how to make Peanut chicken drumsticks with rice and cabbage recipe.

Serves 4 | 10 mins to prepare and 40 mins to cook | 739 calories / serving

Ingredients

120g (4oz) satay sauce
30ml (2tbsp) sesame oil
1 lime, juiced
1kg (2lb) chicken drumsticks
400g (13oz) long grain rice
1 medium cabbage, cored and finely shredded
2 cloves garlic, sliced

The perfect meal to make for those chilly autumn evenings - satay chicken served with a bowl of fluffy rice and cabbage.

Preheat the oven to gas 4, 180°C, fan 160°C. In a large bowl, mix together the satay sauce, 1 tbsp sesame oil and half the lime juice. Season, then add the drumsticks and coat in the sauce. Arrange on a foil-lined baking tray and cook for 30-40 minutes until cooked through and the juices run clear when a skewer is inserted.

Meanwhile cook the rice. Rinse it under running water, swishing until water runs clear. Drain and place in a pan with 750ml (1 1⁄4pts) water and 1⁄2 tsp salt. Bring to the boil and cook, uncovered, until water level drops below surface of the rice and small holes form, about 4-5 minutes. Turn heat to low, cover and cook for 15 minutes until the rice is tender and water absorbed.

Heat the remaining oil in a wok over a high heat and stir fry the cabbage and garlic with a splash of water until wilted. Serve with the chicken and rice, sprinkling over the remaining lime juice, if you like.

Hot Chicken and Chips Retro Recipe

Hot Chicken and Chips Retro Recipe
Randy Mayor; Cindy Barr

The Chicken Recipes Kitchen (The home of delicious chicken recipes) invites you to try Hot Chicken and Chips Retro Recipe. Enjoy quick and easy chicken recipes and learn how to make Hot Chicken and Chips Retro.

This recipe has a nostalgic appeal that harks back to the 1950s and ’60s. If you make it ahead, don’t add the potato chips until it’s time to bake the casserole, or they’ll become soggy.

To crush baked potato chips for the casserole topping, place the chips in a large zip-top plastic bag. With a meat mallet or rolling pin, crush the chips by lightly pounding or rolling until you achieve the desired size and texture. This method makes cleanup a breeze and keeps crumbs in the bag.

Yield: 6 servings
 

Ingredients

4 cups chopped roasted skinless, boneless chicken breast (about 4 breasts)
1/4 cup chopped green onions
1/4 cup chopped red bell pepper
2 tablespoons finely chopped fresh flat-leaf parsley
1 (8-ounce) can sliced water chestnuts, drained and chopped
1/2 cup low-fat mayonnaise
1/4 cup reduced-fat sour cream
2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
2 teaspoons Dijon mustard
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
Cooking spray
3/4 cup (3 ounces) shredded Swiss cheese
3/4 cup crushed baked potato chips (about 2 ounces)

Preparation

Preheat oven to 400°.

Combine chicken and next 4 ingredients (through water chestnuts) in a large bowl; stir well. Combine low-fat mayonnaise and next 5 ingredients (through black pepper) in a small bowl, stirring with a whisk. Add mayonnaise mixture to chicken mixture; stir well to combine. Spoon chicken mixture into an 11 x 7-inch baking dish coated with cooking spray, and sprinkle with cheese. Top cheese evenly with chips. Bake at 400° for 13 minutes or until filling is bubbly and chips are golden.

Yield: 8 servings (serving size: about 1 cup)
 

Ingredients

1 teaspoon olive oil
Cooking spray
3 cups thinly sliced mushrooms
1 cup chopped onion
1 cup chopped red bell pepper
3 cups chopped fresh spinach
1 tablespoon chopped fresh oregano
1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
1 (16-ounce) carton 2% low-fat cottage cheese
4 cups hot cooked penne (about 8 ounces uncooked tube-shaped pasta)
2 cups shredded roasted skinless, boneless chicken breast
1 cup (4 ounces) shredded reduced-fat sharp cheddar cheese, divided
1/2 cup (2 ounces) grated fresh Parmesan cheese, divided
1/2 cup 2% reduced-fat milk
1 (10 3/4-ounce) can condensed reduced-fat, reduced-sodium cream of chicken soup, undiluted

Preparation

Preheat oven to 425°.

Heat olive oil in a large nonstick skillet coated with cooking spray over medium-high heat. Add mushrooms, onion, and bell pepper; sauté 4 minutes or until tender. Add spinach, oregano, and black pepper; sauté 3 minutes or just until spinach wilts.

Place cottage cheese in a food processor; process until very smooth. Combine spinach mixture, cottage cheese, pasta, chicken, 3/4 cup cheddar cheese, 1/4 cup Parmesan cheese, milk, and soup in a large bowl.
Spoon mixture into a 2-quart baking dish coated with cooking spray. Sprinkle with remaining 1/4 cup cheddar cheese and remaining 1/4 cup Parmesan cheese. Bake at 425° for 25 minutes or until lightly browned and bubbly.

Note:

You can cook the pasta mixture in individual eight-ounce ramekins; bake for 15 minutes.
