Chicken Jubilee Recipes

Steps:

• Preheat oven to Broil.
• Lightly brush chicken breasts with melted butter and broil for 2 to 3 minutes each side, or until just lightly browned.
• Preheat oven to 325 degrees F (165 degrees C).
• Place browned chicken in a 9x13 inch baking dish. In large bowl combine the reserved cherry liquid, sugar, chile sauce, water, Worcestershire sauce, onion, raisins and salt and pepper to taste. Mix all together and pour mixture over chicken.
• Cover dish and bake at 325 degrees F (165 degrees C) for 1 hour.
• Remove cover, add cherries and brandy to chicken and bake uncovered for another 15 minutes.

Steps:

• Mix the marinade ingredients together in a shallow dish. Add the chicken and turn to coat thoroughly. Cover and refrigerate for 2-3 hours.
• To make dressing, place creme fraiche, mayonnaise, lime juice and zest in a bowl. Peel and grate the ginger, then twist in a piece of muslin, or press through a sieve to extract the juice. Add 2 tsp of the juice to the dressing. Stir, cover and chill to allow the flavors to develop.
• Scrape marinade from the chicken and pat dry with kitchen paper. Season the chicken with salt, pepper and nutmeg, and place in a roasting pan. Drizzle over olive oil.
• Roast in oven at 375 degrees F for 25 minutes, baste occasionally until the chicken is cooked through. Leave to cool completely, then cut into bite-sized pieces.
• Combine the chicken and dressing, adjust the seasoning, and refrigerate. Serve with a pasta salad, lime quarters and chopped flat leaf parsley.

Steps:

• Wash and pat dry chicken.
• In a large skillet melt butter and brown chicken.
• Lightly salt and pepper chicken and place in the crock-pot.
• Pour 1/2 of the cherry juice into the pan along with the chili sauce and bouillon base.
• Stir to loosen bits and pour over chicken.
• Cover crock-pot and cook on low for 7-8 hours.
• Remove chicken from crock-pot, cover and keep warm.
• Pour juice from crock-pot into a large saucepan.
• Skim off fat and discard.
• Add the Sherry and remaining juice.
• Heat over medium high heat until a gentle boil is reached.
• Boil for 5 minutes stirring often.
• Stir together the cornstarch and water.
• Whisk into the cherry juice mixture until thickened.
• Add the cherries and heat through.
• Pour the warmed brandy over the cherry sauce and ignite.
• Pour over chicken and serve.

Steps:

• Heat oven to 160C/140C fan/gas 3. Sit the chicken in a large roasting tin. Mix together the turmeric, 1 tsp ginger, 1 tsp cumin, 1 tsp cinnamon and oil, then brush all over the chicken, making sure all of the spiced oil is used. Season well. Pour 250ml water into the bottom of the tin, cover with foil and seal around the edges. Put in the oven and cook for 2 hrs.
• Remove the foil and increase oven to 220C/200C fan/gas 7. Cook for a further 30 mins until the chicken is cooked through. Remove from the oven and leave until cool enough to handle. Strip the chicken meat from the carcass in chunky pieces and set aside.
• To make the salad, mix together the yogurt, mayonnaise, remaining 1 tsp each of ginger, cumin and cinnamon, cayenne pepper and pomegranate molasses or balsamic glaze. Add the chicken pieces, apples, all but a handful of the walnuts and parsley, and season.
• Spoon the salad onto a large plate. To serve, drizzle with a little pomegranate molasses or balsamic glaze and scatter over the pomegranate seeds, remaining walnuts and chopped parsley.
