Chicken Fricassée With Black Eyed Peas And Spinach Recipes

Steps:

• Saute chicken and sausage in a large skillet for 4 to 5 minutes. Remove meat from skillet, add green onions and onion and saute until soft. Set aside.
• To Make Roux: In a small saucepan stir together oil and flour over low heat; cook until color is caramel and mixture is reduced to 1 cup of roux. Set aside.
• Put water in a large pot. Add the chicken, sausage, onion mixture, celery, seasoning, cayenne pepper, salt, ground black pepper and garlic. Bring all to a boil and cook for 20 minutes. Add 1/2 cup roux and stir together; the mixture should have the consistency of chowder. If necessary, add the remaining 1/2 cup roux.
• Reduce heat to medium low and simmer uncovered for 2 hours, stirring occasionally. Serve hot over rice, if desired.

Steps:

• Season the poussin with a generous sprinkling of salt and freshly ground black pepper.
• Heat the olive oil together with the butter in a saute pan with straight sides (sauteuse) over medium heat. Add the poussin, without crowding, to the saute pan skin side down and cook slowly to brown the chickens to a golden brown color. Turn the chickens to brown the other side, add the pearl onions to caramelize with the chicken, and place a lid on the pan. Allow the chicken and onions to simmer together for 5 to 7 minutes.
• Add the dry sherry to the saute pan and cook down to reduce the liquid until almost evaporated.
• Add the hot stock together with the spices tied in cheesecloth into an herb bouquet garni.
• Let this simmer slowly over low heat for 30 to 35 minutes. After 20 minutes has gone by add the morels to the pan and continue to simmer all together for the remaining 15 minutes cooking time.
• Remove the chicken carefully from the pan, add the peas and asparagus to the stock and cook for 2 minutes. Stir in the creme fraiche and cook together for 2 more minutes before spooning the vegetables around the chicken and pouring the excess sauce into a sauceboat. Sprinkle chopped chives over everything and serve.

Steps:

• Quick-soak black-eyed peas.
• Chop onion and mince garlic. Cut mushrooms into 1/4-inch-thick slices.
• In a 4-quart heavy kettle cook onion and garlic in 1 tablespoon oil over moderate heat, stirring occasionally, until onion is softened. Add mushrooms and thyme and cook, stirring, until mushrooms are tender and liquid from mushrooms is evaporated. Stir in Sherry and simmer 1 minute. Transfer mixture to a bowl.
• Pat chicken dry and cut crosswise into 1/2-inch-thick slices. Season chicken with salt and pepper. In kettle heat remaining tablespoon oil over moderately high heat until hot but not smoking and cook chicken, stirring, until browned. Add flour, stirring to coat chicken evenly. Add broth and bring to a boil, stirring. Stir in mushroom mixture and peas and simmer, covered, 20 minutes, or until peas are tender.
• While mixture is simmering, discard coarse stems from spinach and cut leaves crosswise into 1/4-inch-wide strips.

Steps:

• Heat oil in a large pot or Dutch oven, over medium-high heat. Briefly brown chicken pieces in batches. When all of the pieces have been browned, return them all to the pot and cover with a layer of sliced onions, and then potatoes. Season with pepper and sprinkle with parsley. Pour the chicken broth over all.
• Cover and simmer on low heat for 45 minutes, pushing potatoes down into the liquid occasionally. When potatoes are tender but not mushy, add frozen peas and simmer for 5 more minutes.

Steps:

• Sprinkle a total of about 1 tablespoon of the seasoning mix evenly on the chicken pieces, patting it in by hand. Combine 1 tablespoon plus 2½ teaspoons of the seasoning mix with the flour in a plastic or paper bag, mixing well. Set aside.
• In a large skillet heat ½-inch oil to 350º over high heat. Just before frying, dredge the chicken pieces in the seasoned flour, shaking off excess. Fry the hen in the hot oil (large pieces and skin side down first) until golden brown, about 5 minutes per side. (Adjust heat as needed to maintain the oil's temperature at about 350º.) Drain on paper towels and set aside.
• In a 5½ quart saucepan or large Dutch oven, melt the fat over high heat. Add the bacon and cook just until it starts to get crisp, about 3 to 4 minutes, stirring often. Stir in the onions, celery, bay leaves and 1 teaspoon of Tabasco. Cook until vegetables start to get tender, about 3 to 5 minutes, stirring frequently. Add the peas, 2 tablespoons plus ½ teaspoon seasoning mix and the sage, stirring well. Cook until all the oil and juice is absorbed and mixture starts sticking excessively, about 2 to 4 minutes, stirring often. Add the stock, chicken pieces and remaining 1 tablespoon Tabasco. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat and simmer until chicken and peas are tender, about 1½ to 2 hours, stirring occasionally. (Note: Cooking time will vary according to toughness of chicken.) If desired, adjust seasoning toward the end of cooking time with additional seasoning mix. To serve, place 1 to 2 pieces of chicken on each plate. Mound about ½ cup rice to the side, then top the rice with about ½ cup peas. Spoon extra sauce over the peas and chicken.
