Nectarine Relish For Chicken Recipes

Steps:

• Preheat a grill to medium high and prepare for indirect grilling: On a charcoal grill, bank the coals to one side. On a gas grill, turn off half the burners. Toss the chicken with the ginger, 1 tablespoon fish sauce and 1 teaspoon each brown sugar, lime zest, lime juice and chili-garlic sauce. Season with salt and pepper. Place the chicken skin-side up on the cooler side of the grill; cover and cook until a thermometer inserted into the thickest part registers 165 degrees F, about 20 minutes. Move to direct heat and cook, uncovered, flipping occasionally, until the skin is charred and crisp, about 5 more minutes.
• Meanwhile, make the dressing: Whisk 2 tablespoons water and the remaining 1 tablespoon fish sauce, 2 teaspoons brown sugar, 1 teaspoon lime zest, 2 teaspoons lime juice and 1/2 teaspoon chili-garlic sauce in a large bowl. Whisk in the vegetable oil.
• Add the nectarines, mint, peanuts and 1/4 teaspoon salt to the bowl with the dressing; toss. Divide the chicken and nectarine salad among plates.

Steps:

• Note: If you sub fresh ginger for the dried, warm it together with the honey.
• Wash and dry nectarines and bell pepper, cut nectarines from pit. With a potato peeler thinly peel the pepper ( this works good only with fresh plump peppers, but it makes for a much nicer texture of the dish). Cut peppers and nectarines in 1/8-1/4 inch dice. Wash and trim scallions, cut into 1/8 inch rings.
• Warm honey in a small pot over medium low heat. Add nectarines, scallions and bell pepper and cook for 2 minutes, stirring frequently.
• Add all the other ingredients, adjust taste and put in a serving bowl. Serve cold or slighly warm with chicken and rice.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F.
• Lightly butter the bottom of a 13 by 9 by 2-inch baking dish. Arrange chicken in dish in a single layer. In a medium bowl, mix together the pecans, mustard, maple syrup, melted butter, brandy, egg white, and pepper. Spread mixture evenly over each chicken breast. Bake, uncovered, for 40 minutes. Arrange chicken on a platter and spoon Nectarine Brandy Sauce over each piece. Garnish with parsley sprigs and seasonal flowers. Serve with additional sauce on the side.
• In medium saucepan, combine all ingredients and cook over low heat, stirring occasionally, for about 20 minutes.

Steps:

• Mix orange juice, soy sauce, honey, hot sauce, brown sugar, ginger, and garlic together in a small bowl to make the sauce.
• Season flour lightly with salt, pepper, and Italian seasoning. Cut chicken breasts into 1/2-inch strips. Dredge chicken pieces in the seasoned flour; sprinkle more salt and pepper on top.
• Heat oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add chicken strips and brown on both sides, 1 to 2 minutes per side. Pour in the orange sauce. Reduce heat and simmer, uncovered, until sauce thickens and chicken is no longer pink in the centers, 8 to 10 minutes.
• Plate the chicken and top with nectarine slices.

Steps:

• If you'd rather, peel the nectarines; I like having the peel in there.
• Melt butter in small saucepan over medium high heat.
• Dissolve brown sugar in the melted butter, then add the cubed nectarines and the rest of the spices.
• When mixture starts to simmer, turn heat down to low.
• Simmer in order to achieve desired consistency and allow flavors to blend. You will want this to be chunky, with some textural variation--chunks of fruit in a thick, medium-brown sauce. This may take 5-10 minutes. Remove pods before serving (? I'm actually not sure if you can eat them).
• Serve warm with vanilla ice cream, or cool and refrigerate.
• My note: this was excellent with hot multigrain cereal! I cooked the cereal first and then added the sauce, about 1:1, stirred it in and warmed it up along with the cereal for a few minutes on low/simmer. Yummy!

Steps:

• Sprinkle pork chops with seasonings. Dredge lightly with flour. In a large skillet, heat oil over medium heat; cook chops until a thermometer reads 145°, 4-5 minutes per side. Remove from pan; keep warm., Add onion to same pan; cook and stir over medium heat 2 minutes. Add garlic; cook and stir 1 minute. Add nectarines; cook until lightly browned on both sides. Stir in broth and, if desired, honey; bring to a boil. Reduce heat. Simmer, uncovered, until nectarines are softened and sauce is slightly thickened, about 5 minutes. Serve with chops.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F.
• Comine 2 Tbsp oil, cumin, 1/2 tsp salt and pepper and brush the mixture on the chicken breasts.
• Arrange prepared chicken on a baking sheet and place in the oven to roast for 40 minutes, or until the juices run clear.
• In a small bowl, combine nectarines, onion, cilantro, vinegar, lime juice, lime zest, garlic and remaining oil and salt.
• Cover with plastic wrap and place in the refrigerator until chicken is ready.
• When chicken is cooked, transfer the pieces to serving plates and either top with the salsa, or serve it on the side.

Steps:

• Heat the oil in a large pan.
• Add the chicken, brown on all sides and set aside.
• Heat the oil in a large pan.
• Add the onion, and saute for 3 minutes.
• Add the garlic and ginger and saute until fragrant, about a minute.
• Add the nectarines, plums, water, paprika, cayenne pepper, cumin, turmeric, cinnamon, saffron, salt and pepper, cover and simmer for 15 minutes.
• Add the chicken, preserved lemon, olives, harissa and honey and simmer, covered, for 25 minutes.
• Remove from heat and mix in the parsley and cilantro.
