1 pound fresh spinach leaves, trimmed and cleaned
8 gourmet white stuffing mushrooms, thinly sliced
8 radishes, thinly sliced
4 scallions, thinly sliced on an angle
2/3 cup extra-virgin olive oil, eyeball the amount, plus 1 tablespoons
1 large shallot, minced
3 rounded spoonfuls Dijon mustard
3 tablespoons balsamic vinegar
1/2 pound boneless chicken breast cutlets
2 teaspoons balsamic vinegar, 2 splashes
1 tablespoon extra virgin olive oil, eyeball the amount
Grill seasoning, such as Montreal Seasoning by McCormick, or, coarse salt and black pepper

  • In a bowl, combine mustard and balsamic vinegar. Stream in 2/3 cup oil slowly while whisking the dressing to emulsify it. Add warm shallots and toss with spinach salad to coat evenly. Add cooked bacon and toss again.
  • Preheat a nonstick skillet over medium high heat. Cook chicken cutlets, 4 minutes on each side, in a single layer. Slice breasts on an angle on your cutting board once they are all out of the pan. Pile spinach salad on to dinner plate/plates. Top each salad with 2 sliced chicken cutlet pieces. For individual portion follow the above method.

Bring to a boil over high heat. Add the chicken breasts and reduce the heat to medium. Simmer for about 15 to 20 minutes. Remove chicken from water and cool completely.
  • Combine the sugar and water in a medium-sized pot and boil for 5 minutes to make a simple syrup. In a blender puree the sambal, garlic, red pepper, fish sauce, salt, and lemon juice.

SLOW COOKER CHICKEN AND DRESSING



Slow Cooker Chicken and Dressing image

Holidays are so much easier since I started making this slow cooker chicken and dressing. Making the dressing in the slow cooker frees up the ovens for other dishes on holidays. Sometimes I add the chicken; sometimes I don't. I often assemble it weeks in advance and freeze it; then I let it thaw in the refrigerator before putting it in the slow cooker.

GRILLED CHICKEN WITH GARLIC-HERB DRESSING AND GRILLED LEMON



Grilled Chicken with Garlic-Herb Dressing and Grilled Lemon image

Provided by Tyler Florence

Categories     main-dish

Time 1h40m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 10

2 heads garlic, cut in 1/2 horizontally
Kosher salt
Freshly ground black pepper
Extra-virgin olive oil
2 whole fresh thyme sprigs, plus leaves from 6 sprigs
2 lemons, juiced, plus 2 lemons, halved
About 1 bunch flat-leaf parsley, leaves chopped
1 (4 to 4 1/2-pound) chicken, cut into 10 pieces
2 heads radicchio, preferably Treviso, cut into quarters
1 tablespoon balsamic vinegar

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. Cut a piece of aluminium foil about 12 inches long.
  • Put the garlic on 1/2 of the foil, sprinkle with salt and pepper, drizzle in some olive oil, and add 2 sprigs of thyme. Fold the foil enclosing the garlic, making a pouch, and add a couple teaspoons of water. Fold the foil over the garlic to enclose and fold in the edges 2 or 3 times to seal. Put the package in the oven and roast for 30 minutes, or longer, until the garlic is soft. Open the package and let the garlic cool a bit, then squeeze out the cloves into a food processor or blender. Add 1/2 cup olive oil, the lemon juice, parsley, and thyme leaves and puree to make a thick vinaigrette.
  • Preheat an outdoor gas or charcoal grill to medium heat.
  • Rinse the chicken and pat dry with paper towels. Put the pieces in a bowl, sprinkle with salt and pepper, and drizzle with olive oil; toss to coat with the seasonings and then refrigerate while you get everything else together.
  • Put the radicchio in another bowl, drizzle with olive oil, balsamic vinegar. Sprinkle with salt and pepper and toss; set aside.
  • When you're ready to cook, take a few paper towels and fold them several times to make a thick square. Blot a small amount of oil on the paper towel and carefully and quickly wipe the hot grates of the grill to make a nonstick surface.
  • Season with salt and pepper and place the radicchio quarters on the preheated grill. Cook the radicchio for about 2 minutes per side until it has a nice char; pull it off the grill, place into a bowl, cover with plastic wrap, and set aside to steam and finish cooking.
  • Then put the chicken on the grill, skin side down, and grill. Grill the chicken for about 20 minutes, turning once, then baste with about half of the vinaigrette and keep cooking until an instant-read thermometer stuck into the thickest part of the thigh reads 160 degrees F and the chicken is nice and caramelised all over, 15 to 20 more minutes. During the last few minutes, throw the lemon halves on the grill, cut sides down, and cook until just marked and smoky.
  • To serve, separate the radicchio into individual leaves in a big bowl. Add the chicken and the rest of the dressing and toss well. Serve with grilled lemon halves, squeeze the lemon over the chicken, and top with reserved dressing.

ASPARAGUS AND CHICKEN SALAD WITH GINGER DRESSING



Asparagus and Chicken Salad With Ginger Dressing image

Asparagus takes easily to many kinds of seasonings, so after you've tired of having it plain with butter or homemade mayonnaise, try this spicy dressing laced with ginger and chiles. Adding smoked chicken is a nice way to make a more substantial first course or light lunch. You can purchase smoked chicken at better butcher shops or online, but equally good is grilled chicken at room temperature, or cold poached chicken. I sometimes substitute lightly smoked ham or smoked slab bacon, simmered until tender.

Provided by David Tanis

Categories     dinner, lunch, quick, salads and dressings, main course, side dish

Time 30m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 17

1 large shallot, finely diced, about 2 tablespoons
3 tablespoons rice wine vinegar
2 tablespoons dark brown sugar
1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
Salt to taste
Generous pinch of cayenne
1 tablespoon grated ginger
2 garlic cloves, minced
2 teaspoons sesame oil
1/4 cup vegetable oil
1 pound asparagus
Salt and pepper
1 serrano chile, thinly sliced (optional)
1/2 cup roasted peanuts, crushed
3/4 pound smoked chicken, sliced
1 large lime, halved
Basil, mint and cilantro leaves, about 1/2 cup total

Steps:

  • To make the vinaigrette, put shallots in a small bowl. Add vinegar, sugar, mustard, salt and cayenne and let steep for 5 minutes. Add ginger and garlic, then whisk in sesame oil and vegetable oil. Taste and adjust seasoning.
  • Bring a large saucepan of salted water to a boil. Snap off the tough end of each asparagus spear, then cut each spear into 2-inch lengths. Cut thicker pieces in half lengthwise as necessary so all cut pieces are approximately the same size. Place asparagus pieces into boiling water and cook for 1 minute. Drain and cool under running water. Blot dry.
  • To make the salad, put asparagus in a salad bowl. Season with salt and pepper. Add chile, if using, and crushed peanuts. Dress with half the vinaigrette and toss to coat.
  • Arrange dressed asparagus on a platter or on individual plates. Tear chicken slices into strips and scatter over asparagus. Drizzle a little more vinaigrette over the salad and give it a good squeeze of lime. Garnish with basil, mint and cilantro leaves and serve immediately.

Yield 6-8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 12

3 lb. skinless, boneless chicken thighs
3 1/2 tsp. kosher salt, divided, plus more
1 (12-oz.) can ginger beer
6 garlic cloves, finely grated
3/4 cup plus 6 Tbsp. unseasoned rice vinegar, divided
3 Tbsp. plus 1 tsp. finely grated ginger (from about one 4" piece)
1 Tbsp. white miso
3/4 cup plus 1 Tbsp. vegetable or sunflower oil, plus more for grill
6 scallions, finely chopped
2 bunches radishes, preferably with greens, halved lengthwise
Freshly ground black pepper
3 heads Little Gem lettuce or romaine hearts, leaves separated

Steps:

  • Season chicken on all sides with 2 1/2 tsp. salt and place in a large bowl. Add ginger beer, garlic, 3/4 cup vinegar, and 3 Tbsp. ginger to bowl and toss to combine. Cover and chill at least 2 hours and up to 24 hours.
  • Meanwhile, whisk miso, 3/4 cup oil, 1 tsp. salt, and remaining 6 Tbsp. vinegar and 1 tsp. ginger in a small bowl. Mix in scallions. Let dressing sit at room temperature up to 1 hour, or chill up to 24 hours.
  • Prepare a grill for high heat; brush grate lightly with oil. Grill chicken, turning occasionally, until lightly charred and an instant-read thermometer inserted into thickest part of thigh registers 165°F, 12-15 minutes. Transfer to a platter and tent with foil to keep warm.
  • Toss radishes with remaining 1 Tbsp. oil in a medium bowl; season lightly with salt and pepper. Grill, turning occasionally, until charred in spots, 8-10 minutes. Transfer to platter with chicken.
  • Toss lettuce with about one-third of dressing in a large bowl. Drizzle another third of the dressing over grilled radishes. Serve remaining dressing alongside.
