Mushroom And Chicken Hot Pot Recipes

Steps:

• Place mushrooms in a small bowl; add 2 cups warm water. Let soak until softened, about 30 minutes. Drain in a sieve lined with a paper towel or coffee filter, reserving liquid. With a paring knife, remove stems; discard. Thinly slice caps.
• In a large stockpot, heat canola oil over medium heat. Cook garlic and crushed red pepper, stirring, until fragrant, about 30 seconds. Add mushrooms; cook, stirring, until golden brown, about 5 minutes. Add broth, soy sauce, reserved liquid, and 1 cup water; bring to a boil.
• Add chicken; reduce to a simmer. Cover; cook until chicken is cooked through, 8 to 10 minutes. Remove chicken; let cool, then shred meat.
• Add bok-choy stems and bell pepper to pot; cook until tender, about 2 minutes. Stir in vinegar, sesame oil, and cornstarch mixture. Bring to a boil; cook 1 minute. Stir in bok-choy greens. Ladle into bowls, and top with shredded chicken.

Steps:

• In a large mixing bowl, combine 2 tablespoons oil, 2 tablespoons vinegar, the honey, mustard, red-pepper flakes and 1 teaspoon salt; whisk until smooth. Pat the chicken dry and season with salt and pepper, then add to the mixture, coating it well. Set aside at room temperature, stirring it once while you make the onions.
• Heat a 12-inch cast-iron or heavy skillet over medium-high until very hot, 1 1/2 to 2 minutes, then add the onions in an even layer. Season with salt, then cook, mostly undisturbed, for 4 minutes more, stirring every minute or so. Add the mushrooms, season with salt, and stir to combine. (It will look crowded, and that's OK.) Allow to cook mostly undisturbed until the mushrooms shrink and start to brown, about 4 minutes, stirring every minute or so.
• Stir in the remaining 3 tablespoons olive oil and allow the onions to cook until they start to color, stirring and lowering the heat as necessary to avoid burning, about 2 minutes. Push the onions and mushrooms to the edges of the skillet, then add the chicken pieces to the center. Pour any remaining marinade (there will be very little) over the onions and mushrooms. Cook undisturbed for 4 to 5 minutes, then combine the chicken and vegetables and cook, stirring occasionally, until the chicken is cooked through, about 10 minutes more. (Reduce the heat to medium if the onions look like they are burning at any point.)
• Add the remaining 2 teaspoons sherry vinegar, stirring and scraping up anything on the bottom of the skillet. Season to taste with salt.
• Remove from the heat and top with the parsley and cheese, if using. Serve with bread or pasta.

Steps:

• In a large soup pot, bring the stock, mushroom stems, ginger and garlic to a simmer.
• Cook over low heat for 30 minutes.
• Strain the stock into a large bowl and return it to the pot.
• Season the broth with salt & crushed red pepper flakes (if using)
• Bring the broth to a boil; add the chicken.
• Cook until the chicken is white throughout, about 4 minutes.
• Divide the mushroom caps, tofu and scallions among eight soup bowls and serve, passing the broth and sesame oil at the table.
• Optional: Serve with a Teriyaki Dipping Sauce or Sesame Sauce for dipping.
