Grilled Chicken And Hot Cherry Pepper Panino Recipes

Steps:

• Season the chicken pieces with salt, pepper and the dry oregano. In a large straight-sided saute pan or chicken fryer heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the chicken to the hot oil and brown all sides well. While the chicken is cooking drain the peppers, cut them into quarters, and discard the stem and seeds. In a separate saucepan heat the broth and keep warm. Drain, carefully, all but 2 tablespoons of fat from the chicken and add the onions. Cook the onions to golden brown. Add the peppers to the onions and cook for 2 to 3 minutes. Add the wine and cook for 2 minutes over medium heat. Add the broth and tomato and bring to a boil. Lower the heat to a simmer and cover the pan. Braise the chicken, onions and peppers for 25 to 30 minutes or until the chicken is fully cooked. Just before serving, bring 4 quarts of water to a boil, add 1 tablespoon of salt, and cook the noodles until tender. Drain the noodles, toss with butter and place on a large platter. Serve the chicken over the noodles and sprinkle freshly chopped parsley over the top.;

Steps:

• Heat the oven to 400 degrees. Season chicken pieces with salt and pepper. Heat the oil in a large pot or Dutch oven over medium-high heat. In batches, brown the chicken, skin side down to start, about 5 minutes on each side. Remove the chicken to a plate. Add the sausage and sauté until brown, about 3 to 4 minutes. (They will not be cooked all the way through at this point.) Remove with a slotted spoon, cut into 1-inch slices and set aside.
• Remove all but 2 tablespoons oil from the pot and sauté the bell peppers, jalapeños, onion and garlic until soft and beginning to brown, about 5 minutes.
• Return the sausage to pot, add the cherry peppers, potatoes (if using), chicken broth, wine, vinegar, oregano and season with salt and pepper. Gently mix together, then transfer everything in the pot to a roasting pan. Nestle the chicken in the vegetables and sausage and roast in the oven until chicken is cooked through and sauce has reduced slightly, about 30 minutes.

Steps:

• Heat an outdoor grill or grill pan to high. If cooking indoors, char the peppers over an open gas flame on the stove top or under a hot broiler. Char the peppers until blackened all over, then put them in bowl and cover with plastic wrap to cool. If cooking outside, char peppers over the hot area of the grill.
• Meanwhile, in food processor combine the wine, rosemary, red pepper flakes, garlic and mustard. With the processor running, slowly stream in the extra-virgin olive oil to make a marinade. Season with salt and pepper, to taste. Add the chicken to a resealable plastic bag and pour in 1/3 of the marinade and turn to coat. Add the mushrooms and onions to a small bowl and pour in the remaining marinade.
• Remove the chicken from the marinade and grill for 12 minutes. Grill the mushrooms and onions until tender, about 8 to 10 minutes and char the tomatoes the last 3 to 4 minutes of cook time.
• Remove the chicken from the grill to a cutting board and slice on an angle. Serve 1 1/2 thighs per person or 1 breast per person. Pile the chicken on the roll bottoms.
• Top the chicken with smoked cheese and sliced grilled mushrooms and onions, and squished fire-charred tomato. Peel, seed and chop the peppers and put them on top of the tomato. Sprinkle with a little parsley and cover with the roll tops.
• If you're felling ambitious, you can puree the peppers in food processor to make them saucy. Serve the panini with olive oil potato chips alongside.

Steps:

• Stir together 2 tablespoons oil, garlic, oregano, and 1/4 teaspoon each of salt and pepper.
• Heat grill pan over medium heat until hot.
• Brush 1 side of each bread slice with some of garlic oil and put, oiled side down, on a work surface. Brush chicken with remaining garlic oil, then grill chicken, turning once, until just cooked through, 2 to 3 minutes total. Put chicken on a bread slice, then top with cherry peppers, mozzarella, and remaining bread slice, oiled side up.
• Put sandwich in grill pan and weight with a heavy skillet. Cook, turning once, until cheese has melted and bread is golden, about 4 minutes total.
• Meanwhile, toss tomatoes with basil, remaining tablespoon oil, vinegar, and salt to taste. Serve panino with salad.

Steps:

• Heat a large skillet over medium heat. Add the red onions, orange peppers, red peppers, oregano and 1/2 teaspoon salt and cook, stirring often, until the vegetables are soft and have a touch of color, about 9 minutes. Add the capers and balsamic; reduce the heat to low and cook an additional 5 minutes, until the peppers are coated in the vinegar. Stir in the basil and set aside to cool.
• Preheat a panini press. Halve the ciabatta rolls horizontally and scoop out some of the insides from the top halves. Divide the pepper mixture evenly among all the halves and top each half with a slice of provolone. Divide the sliced chicken among the ciabatta bottoms and then cover with the ciabatta tops, pressing down slightly. Brush the outside of each sandwich with olive oil.
• Place the sandwiches in the panini press, close the top, and cook until warmed through and the cheese is melted, about 3 minutes.

Steps:

• Combine mayonnaise, basil, garlic, cayenne, and salt for garlic-basil mayo in a food processor; blend until smooth. Place in the refrigerator to chill for at least 1 hour to allow flavors to mix.
• Preheat a panini maker.
• Spread garlic-basil mayonnaise to taste on each slice of bread. Assemble sandwich with cheese, chicken, tomato, and spinach. Brush the outside of the sandwich with olive oil.
• Grill in the preheated panini maker until golden brown and cheese is melted, about 5 minutes.
