Best Chicken Chermoula And Vegetable Sandwich Recipes

CHICKEN CHERMOULA

Steps:

• Season the chicken on both sides with salt and pepper.
• Heat 1 tablespoon olive oil and the butter in a large skillet (I use a cast iron skillet) over high heat.
• Add chicken and cook for about 5 minutes each side or until nicely golden browned on each side.
• Remove chicken from skillet. Pour off excess fat.
• Add 3 tablespoons olive oil to skillet. Sauté the garlic in the oil for just a minute or two. Add the cumin and sauté another few seconds until it becomes aromatic. Add the sweet and smoked paprika, sea salt and saffron threads.
• Add the tomatoes, chicken broth, parsley and cilantro and bring to a boil then reduce heat to low.
• Add the chicken and carrots. Cook for 10 - 15 minutes until the chicken is cooked through and the carrots are fork tender.
• Add the spinach and kalamata olives to the skillet then turn off the heat and place lid on skillet to allow the spinach to wilt.
• Place stew like mixture and chicken on plates. Garnish with freshly chopped cilantro.

CHICKEN, CHERMOULA AND VEGETABLE SANDWICH

Steps:

• To cook the chicken breast, heat a heavy skillet over high heat. Season a boneless, skinless chicken breast with salt and pepper. Add about 2 teaspoons canola oil to the pan and carefully place the chicken breast in the pan, rounded side down. Turn the heat to medium. Cook 4 to 5 minutes per side (depending on the thickness; there should be no hint of pink) and remove from the heat. Allow to cool for at least 5 minutes. Slice across the grain about 1/4 to 1/3 inch thick.
• Spread chermoula on the top and bottom slices of bread or focaccia. Top with a layer of chicken slices. Top the chicken slices with grated carrot, then arugula or spinach, and finally the roasted pepper. Cover with the top slice of bread and press down. Cut in half and wrap or serve.

CHICKEN AND VEGETABLE CHERMOULA

Steps:

• Mix together the tomatoes, cilantro, parsley, garlic, cumin, coriander seeds, paprika, lemon juice and cayenne in a bowl. Add the chicken and potatoes.
• Cover and place in the fridge to marinade, ideally overnight, but for at least an hour.
• Preheat the oven to 350°F.
• Tip the couscous into a bowl and cover with boiling water. Cover the bowl with a clean tea-towel. Leave to stand for about 10 minutes.
• Put the chicken, potatoes and the marinade into an ovenproof dish. Top with the couscous and season with pepper.
• Place in the oven and bake for 40 minutes or until the chicken is cooked and the couscous is golden.

CHICKEN WITH CHANTERELLE MUSHROOMS AND MARSALA WINE

Steps:

• Stir flour and paprika together in a shallow dish. Remove and set aside 1 tablespoon of the flour mixture for later use. Dredge the chicken in the flour mixture to coat evenly.
• Melt 2 tablespoons butter in a skillet over medium heat; cook and stir chanterelle mushrooms in melted butter until they release their liquid and begin to brown, about 5 minutes. Transfer mushrooms to a bowl and set aside.
• Melt 4 tablespoons butter in the skillet. Cook the chicken breasts in the melted butter until browned, about 3 minutes per side; season with salt and pepper.
• Return the cooked mushrooms to the skillet and stir in chicken broth, reserved 1 tablespoon of flour-paprika mixture, Marsala wine, and dried tarragon. Place a cover on the skillet, reduce heat to low, and cook until the sauce is thick, the chicken is no longer pink in the center, and the juices run clear, about 20 minutes. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center of a chicken breast should read at least 165 degrees F (74 degrees C).
