CHICKEN STEW WITH OKRA, CORN, AND TOMATOES



Chicken Stew with Okra, Corn, and Tomatoes image

This quick skillet stew may remind you of gumbo, if you serve it with a mound of white rice. Start the chicken first, so the fresh flavors of okra, corn, and tomatoes stay light and bright with only a brief simmering time at the end. Instead of rice, you can create a complete dinner plate with a side of roasted potatoes and a crisp, green salad. Add a piece of crusty bread, in either case, for a satisfying summer meal.

Time 1h5m

Yield 8

Number Of Ingredients 13

1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil
2 pounds boneless, skinless chicken thighs
2 teaspoons Cajun seasoning, or to taste
1 teaspoon ground black pepper, or to taste
1 cup chicken broth
½ cup chopped onion
2 cloves garlic, minced
2 cups sliced okra
1 ½ cups fresh corn kernels
1 cup diced fresh tomatoes
2 dashes hot sauce, or to taste
3 tablespoons water
2 tablespoons cornstarch

Steps:

  • Heat olive oil in a deep, 12-inch non-stick skillet over medium heat. Season each chicken thigh with Cajun seasoning and black pepper. Add chicken to shimmering oil and cook until browned, about 5 minutes per side.
  • Add chicken broth, chopped onion, and minced garlic. Bring to a boil, cover, reduce heat to low, and simmer until the chicken is almost done, about 20 minutes. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 160 degrees F (71 degrees C).
  • Increase heat to medium, add okra, corn, and tomatoes, and bring to a boil. Replace lid, reduce heat to low, and simmer until vegetables are soft and internal temperature of the chicken is 165 degrees F (74 degrees C), about 10 more minutes.
  • Mix water and cornstarch together in a small bowl and stir into the sauce rapidly until thickened, about 3 minutes.

CORN-TORTILLA-CRUSTED CHICKEN TENDERS



Corn-Tortilla-Crusted Chicken Tenders image

We love honey mustard with these kid-friendly chicken tenders, but ketchup or salsa is delicious, too. To make this dish gluten-free, use cornstarch in place of the flour.

Categories     Food & Cooking     Appetizers

Time 35m

Number Of Ingredients 8

10 corn tortillas, roughly torn
Coarse salt and ground pepper
1/4 cup all-purpose flour
1 cup buttermilk
12 chicken tenders (about 1 1/2 pounds total)
2 cups vegetable oil
3 tablespoons grainy mustard
3 tablespoons honey

Steps:

  • In a food processor, pulse tortillas until mixture resembles coarse meal. Season with salt and pepper and transfer to a medium bowl. Put flour on a plate and pour buttermilk into a shallow dish. Dredge chicken in flour, shaking off excess. Coat in buttermilk, letting excess drip off, then dredge in tortilla crumbs, pressing gently to adhere. Transfer to large platter or baking sheet.
  • In a large nonstick skillet, heat oil over medium. In two batches, cook chicken until cooked through and crust is golden, about 12 minutes, flipping once. Transfer to paper towels or a wire rack set over a rimmed baking sheet to drain. In a small bowl, stir together mustard and honey until well combined. Serve chicken tenders with dip.

GRILLED CHICKEN WITH TOMATOES AND CORN



Grilled Chicken With Tomatoes and Corn image

While you could rest grilled chicken on a cutting board to ensure the juices don't run out of the meat when it's sliced, a more delicious option is to place the chicken on a pile of tomatoes, corn and red onion. The seasoned drippings act as a no-effort warm dressing, bolstering the flavor of the vegetables and softening their raw edges. Before grilling, the chicken is rubbed with chili powder, the spice mix that typically includes dried oregano, garlic, onion, cumin and ground chiles, for complex flavor with minimal effort. Fresh oregano, while optional, emphasizes the herbs in the chili powder. Use this technique of resting grilled proteins on fresh produce for many summer dinners: pork chops on peaches, steak on chopped scallions and ginger, sausages on radicchio and halloumi on citrus.

Time 30m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 8

1 1/2 pounds boneless, skinless chicken thighs, patted dry
3 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil, plus more for greasing the grill grates
1 tablespoon chili powder
Kosher salt (such as Diamond Crystal)
1 1/2 pounds large ripe tomatoes, thinly sliced
1 ear of corn, kernels cut from the cob (about 1 cup kernels)
1 small red onion, thinly sliced
1 tablespoon fresh oregano leaves (optional)

Steps:

  • Heat the grill to medium-high. In a medium bowl, coat the chicken with 2 tablespoons olive oil, the chili powder and 1/2 teaspoon salt; set aside. (You can do this step up to 1 day ahead; refrigerate and bring to room temperature before cooking.)
  • On a large platter, layer the tomatoes, corn kernels, red onion and fresh oregano (if using). Season with 3/4 teaspoon salt and drizzle with the remaining 1 tablespoon olive oil.
  • When ready to grill, clean the grates with a grill brush, then lightly grease the grates. Grill the chicken until browned and cooked through, and it releases easily from the grates, 5 to 7 minutes per side. (If flare-ups occur, move the chicken to an area of the grill with smaller flames underneath. For a gas grill, close the lid between flips, listening and peeking occasionally for flare-ups.)
  • Transfer the chicken to the platter. Let rest for 5 to 20 minutes before serving.
