CREOLE CHICKEN RECIPE

Spicy seasoned chicken thighs are cooked in Spanish rice. This is a good meal for a busy evening. After seasoning chicken and browning, it is left to cook while you tend to other preparations. This can be very spicy.

Provided by Martha Stewart

Categories     Food & Cooking     Ingredients     Meat & Poultry     Chicken

Time 1h10m

Number Of Ingredients 13

1 cut-up chicken (about 3 pounds)
Salt and pepper
1 tablespoon olive oil
3 onions, chopped
2 green bell peppers, cut into 1-inch pieces
3 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley
2 dried bay leaves
1 teaspoon dried thyme
1 teaspoon dried oregano
1/4 cup white wine, or water
1 (15-ounce) can tomato sauce
2 parsnips, cut into 1/2-inch slices (about 2 cups)
3 carrots, cut into 2-inch chunks

Steps:

  • Sprinkle chicken pieces with 1/2 teaspoon salt and 1/4 teaspoon pepper. In a Dutch oven, heat oil over medium heat. When it's hot, add chicken pieces, and brown well, turning them occasionally, about 15 minutes (if necessary, cook chicken in two batches to avoid crowding the pan). Transfer to a plate.
  • Drain most of the fat from the pan. Add onions, half the bell peppers, 1 tablespoon parsley, bay leaves, thyme, and oregano. Cook until onions are translucent, about 5 minutes. Add wine, and scrape up browned bits from the bottom of the pan with a wooden spoon.
  • Stir in tomato sauce. Return chicken to the pan, along with any accumulated juices, and add parsnips, carrots, and remaining bell peppers. Add enough water to barely cover; bring to a boil. Reduce heat, partially cover the pan, and simmer until chicken is almost cooked through, about 15 minutes. Uncover pan, and continue simmering until chicken is done and the liquid thickens slightly, 10 to 15 minutes. Stir in remaining 2 tablespoons parsley, and serve.

Time 40m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 12

4 tablespoons unsalted butter
1 large red onion, chopped
2 stalks celery, chopped
4 ears of corn, kernels sliced off (or 3 cups thawed frozen corn)
Kosher salt and freshly ground pepper
1 tablespoon chopped pickled hot peppers
4 cups cubed cornbread, preferably stale (about 1/2-inch cubes)
4 skinless, boneless chicken breasts (6 to 8 ounces each)
2 teaspoons Creole seasoning
1 tablespoon vegetable oil
Juice of 1/2 lemon
1/4 cup chopped fresh parsley

Steps:

CHICKEN CREOLE



Chicken Creole image

This is a very forgiving recipe - add or reduce seasonings to your taste. I've been making this for over 20 years and ever so often I'm asked - Have you fixed Chicken Creole lately? So much for subtle hints. I serve this over my own yellow rice (just add turmeric to your rice as it cooks) as that is how we prefer it. Some fresh baked French Bread w/garlic butter and large tossed salad. Very hearty meal that will leave guests begging for another Mardi Gras invite.
