Creole Chicken In Andouille Sauce Recipes

Steps:

• Combine oil and flour in a Dutch oven; cook over medium heat, stirring, until mixture is golden colored about 10 to 15 minutes. Add onion, garlic, green pepper, celery and green onions. Cook, stirring often, 10 minutes or more until vegetables are tender.
• Stir in tomatoes, tomato sauce, tomato paste, red pepper flakes, seasoning salt, bay leaves, 1 cup of water, hot sauce, lemon juice, Worcestershire sauce and sausage. Bring to a boil, lower the heat and cover. Simmer for 30 minutes, stirring occasionally. Remove the bay leaves. Garnish with parsley and serve over grits, if desired.

Steps:

• In a large skillet over medium heat, saute the celery, green pepper and onion in oil until tender; Add garlic; cook 1 minute longer. Add flour; cook and stir for 5 minutes or until browned. , Stir in broth. Bring to a boil; cook and stir for 2 minutes. Add remaining ingredients except rice. Return to a boil. Reduce heat; cover and simmer for 10 minutes or until heated through. Serve with rice.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
• In a large skillet, heat the oil over medium heat. Add the garlic, onion, celery and bell pepper. Cook, stirring occasionally, until tender (about 4 minutes). Add the tomatoes, bay leaf, salt and cayenne pepper. Cook this Creole sauce 3 minutes longer, stirring often.
• Arrange the chicken breasts in an 8 x 11 inch baking dish. Pour the Creole sauce over the chicken.
• Bake 15 to 20 minutes, until the chicken is tender and white throughout.

Steps:

• Heat a large skilled over medium-high heat.
• Cook sauage and chicken with the Creole seasoning until the meat is about halfway done.
• Add the mushrooms, green onion, green pepper and red pepper.
• Sautee over medium heat until the mushrooms begin to shrink, about 10 minutes.
• Stir in the chicken broth and milk, season with lemon pepper and garlic powder, and reduce heat to medium-low.
• (Now is a good time to start boiling water for the pasta.) Mix together the cornstarch and cold water until dissolved- I like to use a coffee mug.
• Stir into skilled.
• Cook, stirring gently, until the sausage returns to a boil.
• Boil for one minutes, then remove from heat and set aside.
• Serve hot over cooked pasta.

Steps:

• Preheat grill to medium high or preheat broiler.
• Brush oil on all vegies and meat, and season with salt, pepper and creole seasoning.
• Use 4 metal skewers. For each skewer use, 2 tomatoes, 2 pieces green peppers, 2 pieces of onion, 3 pieces of chicken, 3 pieces of andouille sausage. Thread the pieces randomly.
• For the sauce: In a saucepan combine the stock and mustard. Bring to a boil, reduce heat and gently boil for 2 minutes or until reduced to 1/2 cup.
• While sauce is reducing, place the skewers on the grill. Cook for about 5 minutes on one side and then turn them over and cook for about another 5 minutes or until chicken is no longer pink inside.
• When the sauce is reduced to 1/2 cup, add the cream. Bring to a gentle boil, and reduce for another 2 minutes. Now whisk in the butter. Season to taste with salt and pepper and remove from the heat.
• Place kabobs on a serving platter and drizzle with the sauce.

Steps:

• Chop the bacon into 1-inch bits and set aside. In a skillet over medium-high heat, add the olive oil. Sauté the bacon in the oil until dark brown and most of the fat has been rendered out.
• While the bacon is frying (above), prepare the remaining ingredients, chopping the andouille sausage into small, fine diced cubes, as well as the celery, onion, and green onions. Mince the garlic and finely chop the tomato. (OPTIONAL: You may want to seed and peel the tomato, although this is not necessary.).
• Remove the bacon and set aside; leave the fat in the skillet.
• Add the andouille sausage to the hot fat and reduce heat to medium. Stirring occasionally to prevent burning, brown the sausage.
• Add the chopped celery and onion, increasing the heat, again, to medium-high. Season with salt and black pepper. Sauté until the onion turns translucent.
• Add the minced garlic and paprika, cooking until the garlic browns lightly.
• Add the finely diced tomato and fresh parsley. Stir in and cook until the tomatoes begin to soften and lose their shape. Then sprinkle the tablespoon of flour over the dish and stir in until completely incorporated.
• Keep stirring for 2-4 minutes as the dish absorbs excess moisture and the ingredients tighten up. Be sure to watch for signs of burning as the mixture of sausage and vegetables becomes drier.
• Add the six chicken thighs, moving aside the sausage-vegetable mixture so the meat can touch the bottom of the skillet. Keep stirring the mixture so it doesn't burn and cook each thigh about a minute on each side.
• Add the molasses and chicken broth, stirring it in completely and bring it to a simmer. Make sure to cover the thighs with the mixture, spooning it over the meat. Put a tight-fitting lid over the top and reduce heat to medium-low.
• Simmer, covered, for 45 minutes.
• Remove the skillet from the heat, stir in the reserved bacon, and serve -family-style- over long-grain rice. Sprinkle with the chopped green onions.

Steps:

• In a bowl, combine the onions, bell peppers, okra and celery; set aside.
• Combine all but 1/2 cup of the flour, the salt, garlic powder, and red pepper in a plastic bag, add the chicken pieces and shake until chicken is well coated. In large heavy skillet heat 1 1/2-inches of oil until very hot (375 degrees F.) Fry the chicken until the crust is brown on both sides and meat is cooked, about 5 to 8 minutes per side; drain on paper towels.
• Remove the pan from the heat and pour the hot oil into a cup, leaving as many brown particles in the pan as possible. Scrape the bottom of the pan with a wooden spoon to loosen any stuck particles, then return 1/2 cup of the hot oil to the pan. Place the pan over high heat. Using a long handled whisk, gradually stir in remaining flour. Cook, whisking constantly, until a roux is formed and is a dark red-brown. Remove from heat and add the reserved vegetable mixture, stirring constantly until the roux stops getting darker. Return to a low heat and cook until the vegetables are soft.
• In a separate large pot, bring the chicken stock to a boil. Add the roux by spoonfuls to the boiling stock, stirring between each addition. Reduce to a simmer and add the andouille and remaining ingredients, except file powder. Simmer for 45 minutes. While gumbo is simmering, bone the cooked chicken and cut meat into 1/2-inch dice. Add to the gumbo. Add file powder 5 minutes before serving and continue to simmer for 5 minutes.
• Serve gumbo on a mound of cooked rice.

Steps:

• Cut ham into strips if desired; roll in chicken breast or thigh and place cut side down in large baking dish. (You can use deli ham for this, also. Pound chicken flat, lay a slice of ham over, and roll up).
• FOR SAUCE: Saute onion, celery, green pepper,and garlic in oil until soft.
• Add tomatoes, broth, chili sauce and all other ingredients.
• Bring to a simmer; Pour over chicken pieces.
• Cover and bake@ 350F for 1 to 1 1/2 hours.
• Serve over hot cooked rice.

Steps:

• Cook sliced sausage over medium high heat in a 6 quart stock pot until slightly browned, about 5 minutes.
• Add bell pepper, onion, celery, garlic and scallions and cook until softened but not translucent, about 4 minutes.
• Add cubed chicken breast and worcestershire sauce and cook just until you can no longer see pink.
• Add the bay leaves, basil, oregano, sage, paprika, Tony Chacere's, salt, black pepper, tomatoes and chicken broth.
• Bring to a boil over medium high heat.
• Add rice, bring back up to a boil.
• Boil for 1 minute.
• Cover reduce heat to low, simmer for 30 minutes.
• The jambalaya should still be wet, but not soupy.
• Ladle into bowls and serve up with some cornbread!
• Cook's Note: I find that when cubing the chicken breast it's easiest to do so when it's still mostly frozen and with a sharp knife. Way easier than a wiggly raw chicken breast!
