Onion And Saffron Chicken Recipes

Steps:

• Toast the saffron strands in a dry pan over a medium heat for about 1 minute taking care not to burn them.
• Cool, and then crush them with the back of a spoon.
• Dissolve them in 1 tablespoon of very hot water.
• Heat the ghee (or whatever you use), and gently fry the onion, garlic, ginger and chillis until the onion is soft and golden.
• Add garlic.
• Add the dissolved saffron to the pan with the cardomon, then add the chicken.
• Turn the chicken pieces in the mix, coating well.
• Add the salt, cover and cook for 25 minutes until the chicken is tender.
• Uncover the pan and continue cooking, turning often until the liquid is almost gone.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Lightly spray the bottom of a 3-quart casserole dish with cooking spray.
• Place chicken breasts in the prepared dish and top with mushrooms. Mix cream of mushroom soup, sour cream, and onion soup mix together in a bowl; pour over chicken and mushrooms. Cover dish with aluminum foil.
• Bake in the preheated oven until no longer pink in the center and the juices run clear, about 1 hour. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 165 degrees F (74 degrees C).

Steps:

• Season the chicken thighs with salt and pepper. Put the oil in a skillet with a lid over medium-high heat. Add the chicken, skin side down, and cook, rotating the pieces as necessary, until nicely browned, about 10 minutes; turn and brown the other side. Stir in the onions and saffron, cover, turn the heat to low, and cook for about 15 minutes.
• Add the parsley and 1 cup water (or chicken stock, if you have it), then cover and cook for another 10 minutes. If you're using preserved lemon, add it now. Turn the heat to high and cook, uncovered, until the sauce reduces by half, about 10 minutes.
• Taste and adjust the seasoning, then drizzle with a little olive oil, garnish with parsley, and serve.

Steps:

• Trim the skin on the chicken thighs and set aside. For the mash, heat the milk and saffron in a small saucepan to just below boiling, then remove from the heat and set aside to infuse. Heat the oven to 180C/160C fan/gas 4.
• Heat the olive oil in a shallow 30cm casserole over a medium heat, fry the chorizo for 2 mins, then transfer to a dish using a slotted spoon. Fry the onions and peppers in the pan until starting to soften, about 10 mins. Add the garlic, cook for 2 mins more, then tip into the dish with the chorizo.
• Return the pan to a medium heat with any residual oil, then brown the chicken thighs on both sides. Season. If there's a lot of oil in the pan, pour away all but 1 tbsp. Add the rioja, scraping the bottom of the pan to release any sticky bits, then add the stock, bay and thyme.
• Add the chorizo and veg. Bring to a simmer, then transfer to the oven, uncovered. Cook for 35-40 mins, adding some water if the liquid starts to reduce too quickly.
• Meanwhile, make the mash. Cover the potatoes in lightly salted cold water, bring to the boil, and cook for 15 mins until tender. Drain, return to the pan, and leave for 5 mins to steam-dry. Mash the potatoes with the infused milk and butter. Beat in the olive oil and some seasoning. When the chicken is cooked through, season, scatter with thyme leaves and serve with the mash.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
• Place chicken in a 9x13 inch baking dish. Pour melted margarine over the chicken strips. Season with salt and pepper, and sprinkle with dry onion soup mix.
• Bake 40 minutes in the preheated oven, or until chicken is no longer pink and juices run clear.

Steps:

• Heat the oil over medium high heat in a skillet. Add the peppers, onions, garlic, salt and pepper. Cook, stirring, about 3 minutes or until crisp tender. Then add the tomatoes and saffron. Cover and simmer 10 minutes.
• Meanwhile, melt the butter in a skillet large enough to hold the chicken breasts in one layer. Season the chicken with salt and pepper. Cook over medium heat until lightly browned, about 4 minutes. Turn the pieces, reduce the heat and cook about 5 minutes or until done. Do not overcook. Transfer the chicken to a warm platter and keep it warm.
• Add the shallots to the skillet and cook until wilted. Do not brown. Pour in the wine and scrape the bottom with a wooden spatula to dissolve any brown particles that may cling to the bottom of the skillet. Reduce the wine almost completely and add the chicken broth. Let this cook until it is almost totally reduced. Add the chicken breasts and any liquid that may have accumulated. Add the pepper and tomato mixture, bring to a simmer and add the parsley. Serve with rice.

Steps:

• Coat chicken with honey mustard, then roll in crushed onions. Place on a foil-lined baking sheet. Bake at 375° for 20-25 minutes or until chicken juices run clear.
