Edam And Tomato Chicken Parcels Recipes

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400°F Remove the small fillet from the underside of each chicken breast and set to one side. Using a sharp knife make a vertical cut down the length of each chicken breast, but not all the way through to form a pocket.
• In a small bowl, mix together the Edam, tomatoes, thyme and season well.
• Spoon the Edam mixture into each chicken breast pocket. Fold over the flaps of the pocket and cover with the reserved chicken fillets to enclose the filling.
• Wrap 1 ½ slices of prosciutto around each breast.
• Heat a non-stick frying pan or griddle pan, lay in the chicken and sear for 2 minutes each side until golden. Transfer to the oven and cook for 12-15 minutes or until the chicken is cooked through.
• Slice each chicken breast in half on the diagonal and serve straight away with your choice of accompaniment(s).

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 190°C.
• Mix together garlic, chopped sage, mustard, honey, lemon juice and soy sauce. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
• Place each chicken breast on foil and drizzle with lemon mixture, top with a piece of sage, and piece of lemon.
• Fold foil to enclose chicken and make parcels.
• Place in a roasting pan and cook for 25 minutes or until cooked through.
• Open chicken parcels, remove sage and lemon and serve, drizzled with sauce.

Steps:

• Heat canola oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat.
• Add ginger, lemongrass, and garlic; sauté 1 minute or just until mixture begins to brown.
• Add chicken; sauté 2 minutes.
• Add edamame and stir-fry mix; sauté 3 minutes.
• Combine soy sauce, mirin, sesame oil, and cornstarch, stirring with a whisk. Add to pan; cook 1 minute.
• Remove from heat.
• Stir in onions, sesame seeds, and salt.
• Serve over rice.

Steps:

• Heat oven to 425 degrees. Slice the tomatoes in half crosswise and place in a 9-by-13-inch baking dish along with garlic, thyme and crushed red pepper flakes, if using. Season with salt and pepper.
• Season chicken with salt and pepper and nestle into baking dish. Drizzle with olive oil and bake until chicken is about halfway cooked through, about 8 to 10 minutes. Remove from oven and grate Parmesan over chicken.
• Return to oven and continue to bake until chicken is cooked through, tomatoes are starting to caramelize and Parmesan is browned and crisp, about 10 to 12 minutes more.
• Remove from oven and sprinkle with parsley or basil before serving, if desired, and garnish with shavings of Parmesan.

Steps:

• Heat the oil and fry the onion, butternut squash and sweet potato for about 10 minutes.
• Add the chicken and fry until browned on the outside and nearly done.
• Add the curry paste and coconut milk and simmer for another 10 minutes.
• Take the pan of the heat and stir in the corriander.
• Roll out the pastry and cut out four 17 centimetre circles.
• Divide the filling between the pastry circles.
• Beat the egg and brush the edges of the pastry circles.
• Fold the pastry over to form a semi-circle and seal the edges by pressing them down with a fork.
• Brush the tops of the parcels with the rest off the beaten egg and sprinkle with the poppy seeds.
• Chill in the fridge for half an hour (I never really bother with this) and then bake in a pre-heated oven (200 C, 400 F or Gas Mark 6) for about 30 to 40 minutes until golden.

Steps:

• Heat oven to 220C/200C Fan/gas 7. Cut a slit halfway in each chicken breast, then put each one between two pieces of baking parchment and bash with a rolling pin to flatten slightly.
• Cut your sheet of pastry in half widthways and put both halves on a baking tray. Sit a chicken breast on top of each half, then cram the cavities with the Boursin (don't worry if a bit of cheese oozes out). Season, scatter over the lemon zest then fold the edges of the pastry in to the centre and pinch shut. Flip each parcel over so the seal is on the bottom. Brush with a little oil, then bake for 30 mins until deep golden.
• About 10 mins before your parcels are ready, steam or boil the greens until tender. Toss in the oil and season. Serve alongside your chicken parcels with lemon wedges for squeezing over.
