Best Garlic Chicken Cushions Recipes

GARLIC CHICKEN CUSHIONS

Steps:

• Make a slit between the skin and meat on one side of each chicken breast.
• Put the spinach into a strainer and press out the water with a spoon and mix with the ricotta, half the garlic, and seasoning.
• Spoon the spinach mixture under the skin of each chicken breast, then secure the edge of the skin with toothpicks.
• Heat the oil in a skillet, add the onion, and fry for a minute, stirring.
• Add the remaining garlic and red bell pepper and cook for 2 minutes.
• Stir in the tomatoes, wine or stock, olives and seasoning (Set the chicken aside and chill if preparing in advance).
• Bring the sauce to a boil, pour into a shallow ovenproof dish and arrange the chicken breasts on top in a single layer.
• Cook uncovered in a preheated oven 400 degrees for 35 minutes, until the chicken is golden and cooked through.
• Spoon a little of the sauce over the chicken breasts then transfer to plates and serve with pasta.

GARLIC CHICKEN

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 425 degrees F (220 degrees C).
• Heat olive oil and garlic in a small saucepan over low heat until warmed, 1 to 2 minutes. Transfer garlic and oil to a shallow bowl.
• Combine bread crumbs and Parmesan cheese in a separate shallow bowl.
• Dip chicken breasts in the olive oil-garlic mixture using tongs; transfer to bread crumb mixture and turn to evenly coat. Transfer coated chicken to a shallow baking dish.
• Bake in the preheated oven until no longer pink and juices run clear, 30 to 35 minutes. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 165 degrees F (74 degrees C).
