Best Salt And Pepper Chicken Recipes

SALT-AND-PEPPER ROAST CHICKEN

Steps:

• Season the chicken inside and out with salt and pepper. If you have time, refrigerate the chicken, uncovered, for an hour, or overnight.
• Heat oven to 450 degrees. Place chicken breast-side up in a roasting pan or large ovenproof skillet. Stuff cavity with herbs and tie the legs together with kitchen twine. (If you don't have twine, leave the legs as they are.)
• Roast 50 minutes, then baste chicken with pan juices. Continue roasting until chicken's juices run clear when skin is pierced with a knife, 5 to 10 minutes longer. Let stand 10 minutes before carving.

SALT AND PEPPER CHICKEN

Steps:

• Cut the chicken thighs into strips. Crush the salt with the peppercorns in a pestle and mortar, then mix with the cornflour and five-spice and tip into a sandwich bag. Tip the chicken into the bag and shake well to coat in the flour mixture.
• Toss the sesame seeds in a pan over a medium heat and lightly toast, for around a minute, then add the olive oil. Add the chicken and cook for 7-8 mins until golden brown.
• Mix the soy and honey and tip into the pan along with the Asian greens, cook for 2-3 mins further until everything is well coated and the greens are cooked through. Serve topped with coriander and sliced spring onions alongside some cooked rice.

SALT AND PEPPER ROAST CHICKEN WITH LEMON DRESSING

Steps:

• For the salt and pepper roast chicken: Liberally season the chicken inside and out with kosher salt and pepper. Refrigerate the chicken uncovered on lowest shelf of fridge in a rimmed pan or dish overnight or up to 24 hours and a minimum of 1 hour.
• For the lemon dressing: Heat a medium cast-iron or heavy skillet over medium-high heat, then sear the lemons cut-side down to caramelize them and sweeten juices, about 4 minutes. Remove lemons from the skillet, add 1/4 cup EVOO and reduce heat a bit. Add shallots and garlic and stir 5 to 6 minutes to soften, then add 1/4 cup water and let it absorb. Turn off heat and cool mixture a bit to room temp. Place cooled mixture in a medium glass bowl and add the juice of the lemons, lemon zest, oregano, red pepper flakes and parsley. Whisk in remaining 3/4 cup EVOO to form a thick dressing.
• Preheat your oven to 425 degrees F, rack at center. Roast the chicken in the skillet on one side for 20 minutes, then turn to opposite side and roast 20 minutes more. Finally turn the chicken on its back (breast-side up), spoon juices over the skin, and continue to roast for 15 to 20 minutes or until the chicken registers 160 to 165 degrees F. Rest bird and carve, then serve with sauce to pass and crusty bread.

• Place chicken on grill, skin side down. Close cover, and grill 8 minutes. Flip chicken, and close cover. Grill until chicken is cooked through, about 15 minutes more.
• Transfer chicken to a plate, and let rest 15 minutes. Serve with bread salad.

Steps:

• Place the chicken thighs in a large bowl. Cover the chicken with the light soy sauce, Chinese five-spice powder, salt and garlic, and stir to coat. Toss the chicken with the toasted sesame oil. Let marinate for as much time as you have; for best results, leave the chicken in the refrigerator overnight.
• When ready to fry, toss the chicken pieces in the cornstarch.
• Heat a large wok or pan over high heat and add the vegetable oil. Working in batches so as not to crowd the pan, add the chicken and fry lightly until the thighs are golden brown on all sides and cooked through, 6 to 8 minutes. Drain the chicken on paper towels and season them with salt, pepper and cilantro as they come out of the oil.
• Wrap each piece of newspaper and parchment into a cone shape and secure with a piece of tape. Fill each cone with several pieces of chicken and garnish with more chopped cilantro. Serve alongside a platter of Mixed Salad if desired.

SALT AND PEPPER PORK CHOPS SHRIMP OR CHICKEN WINGS

Steps:

• If using pork chops: remove the bone from each pork chop, if desired. Butterfly the pork chop by slicing it horizontally into two thin pieces. Lightly pound the butterflied chops to uniform thickness. Prepare the marinade by mixing all the ingredients called for, and marinade the meat or seafood for 30 minutes, or up to 24 hours. Heat the oil in a wok or a deep, heavy skillet to 365 degrees. Thoroughly blend the dry batter ingredients in a wide bowl. Drain the marinated chops (or seafood pieces) and drop the pieces one by one into the dry batter. Make sure each piece is well coated and pat or gently shake off any excess dry batter. In batches, to insure even cooking and that the pieces will not stick together, deep fry the meat or seafood in the hot oil for 2 to 4 minutes. Depending on the thickness of your chop or piece of seafood, you may need to fry more or less time. Make sure the oil temperature does not go below 350 degrees. Place the fried chops or seafood on a paper towel to drain off excess oil. After all of the pieces have been fried, keep 2 tablespoons of the oil in the wok or pan, discarding the rest. Place all of the "final touch" ingredients except for the salt and white pepper or the Roasted Szechuan Pepper-Salt in the wok or skillet and sauté over medium heat until you can smell their aromas. Place the fried chops or seafood back in the pan and stir-fry them with the final touch ingredients for 30 seconds or until the mixture is heated throughout and the flavors are blended. Sprinkle over the salt and white pepper - or the Roasted Szechuan Pepper-Salt. Serve with steamed rice, if desired.
