Lebanese Chicken Stew Recipes

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).
• Heat olive oil in a heavy, oven-safe skillet over high heat. Cook chicken breasts on both sides until golden brown, about 5 minutes per side. Remove chicken breasts from skillet and set aside. Add onion and ground beef to the skillet; cook until onions are starting to brown, about 5 minutes. Add garlic and cook for 1 to 2 minutes. Season with cinnamon, allspice, salt, and cayenne pepper. Cook and stir for 2 minutes.
• Stir rice into the skillet until fully coated with oil and spices. Place chicken breasts on top of the rice and pour in broth. Cover skillet with a tight-fitting lid or aluminum foil.
• Bake in the preheated oven until rice has absorbed all liquid, about 20 minutes. Remove from oven and sprinkle with parsley before serving.

Steps:

• Rinse chicken and pat dry with paper towels.
• Cook chicken, onion and garlic in the butter in a large skillet for about 6 minutes or until chicken is browned, turning once.
• Add orange zest, orange juice and salt to skillet.
• Bring to boil; reduce heat and simmer, covered, for 5 minutes.
• Sprinkle cinnamon and all spice onto chicken.
• Drizzle with honey.
• Simmer uncovered for 5 to 7 minutes more or until chicken is tender and no longer pink.
• Meanwhile, cook couscous according to package directions.
• Top couscous with chicken and sauce before serving.

Steps:

• Whisk yogurt, lemon juice, olive oil, tomato paste, garlic, cumin, coriander, salt, pepper, and red pepper flakes together in a bowl. Mix in chicken strips. Cover bowl with plastic wrap and place in the refrigerator to marinate, 8 hours to overnight.
• Set oven rack about 6 inches from the heat source and preheat the oven's broiler.
• Remove chicken from the bowl and arrange in a single layer on a broiling pan. Discard excess marinade.
• Broil chicken, turning once, until juices run clear, about 10 minutes. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 165 degrees F (74 degrees C).

Steps:

• Dust chicken fillets in seasoned flour to coat.
• Heat olive oil in stew pot and brown chicken in batches, set aside.
• Add a little more oil and gently fry the leek, garlic, ginger and onions until softened, 5-8 minutes.
• Add spices and stock, cover the pan and simmer for 20 minutes or so, until the mixture has turned a beautiful saffron yellow.
• Return the chicken to the pot along with the tomato and dates and simmer for a further 30-40 minutes until chicken is meltingly tender!
• Squeeze in the lemon juice.
• Serve with any pilaf and plenty of yoghurt.

Steps:

• Whisk fresh lemon juice, minced garlic, thyme, paprika, cumin and cayenne pepper in small bowl. Place chicken in 13x9x2-inch glass baking dish. Pour marinade over; turn chicken to coat. Cover and refrigerate at least 6 hours or overnight, turning occasionally.
• Preheat over to 425°F. Transfer chicken and marinade to large roasting pan. Season chicken with salt and pepper. Bake until chicken is golden brown and cooked through, occasionally basting with pan juices, about 50 minutes. Transfer chicken to plates. Garnish with lemon. Pass pan juices separately.
