Time 35m

Number Of Ingredients 10

4 boneless skinless chicken breasts (or chicken thighs)
1 teaspoon olive oil
2 teaspoons cajun seasoning
2 tablespoons butter
1 tablespoon honey
2 mangoes (diced (optional))
handful cilantro (chopped)
1 cup long grain white rice (uncooked)
2 1/4 cups chicken broth (I used low sodium)
1 tablespoon cajun seasoning

Steps:

  • Rub olive oil all over chicken. Season with Cajun seasoning all over.
  • In a large skillet over medium heat, melt butter. Once the butter is just melted, stir in the honey.
  • Add chicken to the pan and brown for 1-2 minutes on each side. Transfer to a plate and set aside.
  • Add rice, cajun, seasoning, and broth to the pan and give it a good stir. Bring to a boil.
  • Reduce heat to a simmer (medium-low), return chicken to pan (place on top of rice), cover, and cook for 15-20 minutes until chicken is cooked through and rice is tender.
  • Fluff rice with a fork and serve chicken and rice with a scoop of mangoes (or alternate option, see notes), fresh cilantro, and lime wedges for squeezing.

Categories     main-dish

Time 1h25m

Yield 6 to 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 13

2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
1 1/2 pounds spicy Italian sausage, casings removed
3 shallots, finely minced
3 cloves garlic, finely minced
2 teaspoons grated lemon zest (from 2 lemons)
1/2 teaspoon red pepper flakes
1 bunch broccoli rabe, trimmed and cut into 1-inch pieces
1 1/2 teaspoons kosher salt
One 25-ounce jar marinara sauce
8 ounces no-boil lasagna noodles
1 1/2 cups grated Parmesan
1 pound fresh mozzarella, dried well and torn into large chunks
1/2 cup grated Gruyere

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F.
  • In a 12-inch high-sided skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the sausage and cook, breaking it into bite-size pieces with a wooden spoon, until cooked through and browned, about 7 minutes. Add the shallots and garlic and cook until translucent and slightly fragrant, another 3 minutes. Add the lemon zest and red pepper flakes and cook for additional 2 minutes to toast. Stir in the broccoli rabe and salt; cook until the rabe is wilted, 2 minutes. Remove the mixture to a medium bowl and return the pan to the stove over low heat.
  • Spoon a small amount of the marinara sauce in the bottom of the skillet. Mix the remaining marinara with the sausage mixture in the bowl. Layer half of the lasagna noodles on top of the marinara, breaking them up as needed to fit the pan. Cover with half of the sausage mixture. Add 3/4 cup of the Parmesan and half the mozzarella. Layer with the remaining noodles. Cover with the remaining sausage mixture and top with the rest of the Parmesan and mozzarella and the Gruyere.
  • Bake until bubbly and golden on top, about 40 minutes. Cool for 5 minutes before serving.
