Chicken With Sofrito Recipes

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400 degrees. In a large skillet or Dutch oven, heat oil over high. Season chicken with salt and pepper and cook, skin side down, until golden and crisp, 8 minutes. Flip, then add sofrito, wine, and broth, swirling to combine. Transfer to oven and bake until chicken is cooked through, 25 minutes. Transfer chicken to a platter. Tilt skillet and spoon off excess fat; pour sauce over chicken to serve.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
• Pat chicken breasts dry with a paper towel. Combine sazon seasoning, chili powder, and pepper in a small bowl. Season each chicken breast with sazon spice mix, making sure to get some seasoning under the skin as well as on the outside.
• Heat a 10-inch skillet over medium-high heat. Add olive oil to the hot pan, and place chicken breasts skin-side down in the skillet. Brown chicken, about 4 minutes. When skin is brown, move chicken to a plate. Add sofrito, tomato paste, and cumin to the same skillet and cook, stirring, for 1 to 2 minutes. Add chicken stock and bring to a boil. Stir in riced cauliflower and nestle chicken down into the mixture. Cover.
• Bake in the preheated oven for 25 minutes. Stir in peas and salt, and bake, uncovered, until the chicken is no longer pink at the bone, the juices run clear, and most of the liquid has cooked down, 15 to 20 minutes more. An instant-read thermometer inserted near the bone should read 165 degrees F (74 degrees C). Serve hot.

Steps:

• Combine tomatoes, green bell pepper, red bell pepper, Cubanelle pepper, onion, garlic, and cilantro in the bowl of a food processor; pulse until finely chopped. Set aside 1 cup of sofrito for the recipe and save the rest for another use.
• Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Season chicken thighs with adobo and cumin. Add chicken to hot skillet and sear on each side until golden brown, 5 to 6 minutes per side. Reduce heat to low and add chicken broth and 1 cup of sofrito. Cover and simmer until chicken thighs fall apart, about 1 hour.

Steps:

• For the chicken: Add the oil, adobo, garlic, cilantro with stems and red onion to a food processor or blender and blend until a smooth consistency. Place the chicken in a ziptop bag and add the marinade. Marinate, refrigerated, for at least 24 hours.
• Preheat a grill or cast-iron grill pan over medium-high heat.
• Remove the chicken from the marinade and cook until grill marks appear, about 2 minutes on each side. Set aside (the chicken will finish roasting with the vegetables).
• For the citrus roasted veggies: Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
• Peel the oranges and cut each section into individual wedges from the membranes. Place the segments in a bowl. Squeeze the juice from the membranes into a separate bowl and reserve.
• Add the canola oil to a large skillet over high heat. Add the tomatoes, red peppers, onions and eggplant and saute for 4 to 5 minutes, adding a little more oil if needed. Season with salt and pepper.
• Place the grilled chicken breasts and citrus wedges on top of the veggies. Pour in the lime juice and reserved orange juice. Transfer to the oven and roast until the chicken is cooked through and the veggies are slightly tender, 15 to 20 minutes. Garnish with the Pomegranate and Cilantro Chimichurri and serve.
• In a medium bowl, combine the cilantro, pomegranate, oil, salt and pepper and toss to coat.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 300 degrees F (150 degrees C).
• Place potatoes, chicken, chourico, beer, carrots, onion, parsley, sofrito, cooking wine, sazon seasoning, garlic, salt, and black pepper in a large Dutch oven; mix well to combine. Cover with aluminum foil.
• Bake in the preheated oven until an instant-read thermometer inserted into the chicken reads at least 165 degrees F (74 degrees C) and vegetables are tender, about 2 1/2 hours.
