Passover Chicken Fricassee Recipes

Steps:

• Place the chicken in a bowl and toss with the garlic, salt and pepper.
• Let marinate for 15 minutes while you make the sauce.
• Heat the oil in a large, heavy saucepan.
• Add the onion and pepper and cook until soft but not brown- about 3 minutes.
• Add the garlic, paprika and hot pepper flakes and cook for 1 minute.
• Add the tomato paste and fry for 30 seconds.
• Add the chopped peeled tomatoes with their juice to the pan with the tomato sauce and 2 tablespoons parsley.
• Simmer the sauce until thick and richly flavoured- 10 to 15 minutes- stirring often.
• Add sugar if too acidic.
• Blend or process the sauce if you don't like chunky sauce.
• Stir the chicken into the sauce and simmer until cooked, about 15 minutes.
• Add salt and pepper to taste.
• Serve garnished with remaining parsley.

Steps:

• Rinse the chickens and pat them dry with paper towels. Cut the chickens into serving pieces. To make a quick broth, if desired, place the chicken backs, necks, and wing tips into a small pot and cover with water. Bring to a boil, reduce the heat to low, and simmer until needed.
• Place the other chicken pieces in a large bowl and squeeze the limes over them, coating each piece with juice. (Leave the lime rinds in the bowl.) Sprinkle on the salt and black pepper, add the onions, tomatoes, garlic, thyme, and Scotch bonnet peppers, and mix well. Set aside to marinate for at least 15 minutes and up to an hour.
• In a large skillet, heat half of the oil over high heat until it is very hot. Fry half the pieces of chicken until golden on both sides, about 5 minutes per side. Remove the pieces from the pan and set aside on a large plate. Wipe out the old oil and add the remaining oil. Repeat the frying process with the rest of the chicken pieces. Remove the chicken from the pan and pour out the oil. Discard the lime rinds from the tomato mixture. Return the pan to medium-high heat, add all the chicken pieces and tomato mixture, and cook, stirring for 3 minutes. Blend in the water or chicken stock. Reduce the heat to medium-low, cover, and simmer until the chicken is tender, 40 to 45 minutes. Remove the whole Scotch bonnet pepper. Serve the chicken with the sauce spooned over it.

Steps:

• In a Dutch-oven, heat oil over medium-high heat. Add chicken; cook until browned, 5 to 7 minutes.
• Add peppers, onion, 1 cup water, tomato sauce, wine, chicken stock, Sazon, cumin, garlic powder, and bay leaves; cook, uncovered, until chicken is opaque, about 20 minutes.
• Add potatoes, carrots, olives, and raisins; cook until potatoes are tender and chicken is cooked through, 20 to 25 minutes more. Serve immediately.

Steps:

• mix all ingredients together.
• bake in greased, covered 2 1/2 qt.casserole for 1 hr @350 (l80 c).
• (I usually do not bake it covered.).

Steps:

• Brown ChickenSeason chicken on both sides with 1 tablespoon salt and 1/2 teaspoon pepper. Preheat a Dutch oven or other large heavy pot over medium-high heat. Add 2 tablespoons butter and the oil to pot. When butter melts and foam subsides, add half the chicken, skin side down, in a single layer; do not crowd pot. (If butter begins to blacken, lower heat.) Fry chicken, turning once, until golden brown on both sides, about 10 minutes total, and transfer to a plate. Repeat with remaining chicken.
• Saute MirepoixReduce heat to medium, and add mirepoix (onion, carrot, and celery) to pot, scraping up any browned bits with a wooden spoon. Saute mirepoix, stirring occasionally, until soft and golden brown in places, 8 to 10 minutes.
• Cook Mushrooms and FlourAdd mushrooms, and cook, stirring occasionally, until mushrooms darken, become glossy, and begin to release liquid, 4 to 5 minutes. Stir in flour, and cook until flour is absorbed by vegetables and is no longer visible, about 1 minute.
• Pour in Wine and BrothAdd wine to pot, and bring to a boil, stirring until liquid just thickens, about 45 seconds. Add broth, and stir.
• Simmer ChickenPlace chicken, skin side up, in a single layer on vegetables; pour juices that have accumulated on plate into pot. Tie parsley sprigs, thyme sprigs, and bay leaf together with kitchen twine; add to pot. Bring to a boil, then reduce to a simmer. Cover partially. Cook until internal temperature of thickest part of chicken registers 165 degrees, 25 to 30 minutes. Transfer chicken to a clean plate. Simmer liquid, uncovered, until reduced slightly, about 5 minutes. Discard herbs.
• Make and Add LiaisonTo make the liaison (sauce thickener), whisk together egg yolks and cream in a medium bowl. Whisking constantly, pour 1/2 cup cooking liquid, 1 tablespoon at a time, into liaison to temper it. Stir tempered liaison into pot.
• Finish with Tarragon, Lemon, and ButterReturn chicken to pot. Add tarragon, lemon juice, and the remaining butter. Bring to a simmer, stir gently to combine, and serve.

Steps:

• Step 1: In a casserole or skillet, cook the carrots and onion in butter for 5 minutes over moderate heat. Cut the chiken in about 10 pieces. Add the cut-up chicken in the skillet. Turn it every minute for 4 minutes until slightly golden yellow.
• Step 2: Lower heat, cover and cook very slowly. Turn the chicken once while cooking.
• Step 3: Add salt, pepper and flour on both sides of the chicken. Cover and cook slowly for 4 to 5 minutes. And turn the chicken once during the process.
• Step 4: Remove from heat. Boil the bouillon/stock and pour in over the chicken. Add the wine, parsley and just enough bouillon/stock or water to cover the chicken. Bring to the simmer. Cover and maintain for 30 minutes.
• Step 5: Cook the mushrooms in butter with a drop of lemon juice. Retrieve the cooking juice of both the mushrooms and chicken. Simmer the cooking juice in a casserole for 3 minutes. Remove the fat from it. Then raise heat and boil, stir it well until the sauce reduces itself, enough to get 2 1/2 cups from it.
• Step 6: Blend the egg yolks and cream. While beating it, add the sauce very slowly. Pour the sauce in the casserole again and cook at medium to high heat. Stir the sauce all the way. Boil for 1 minute. Add a drop of lemon juice and salt & pepper.
• Step 7: Pour the sauce over the chicken and vegetabbles. Heat the chicken fricassee if needed. Add butter before serving.
• Wine suggestion: Red Bordeaux wine or Saint Chinian, Rosé from Provence, Vouvray white wine.

Steps:

• Sprinkle chicken pieces with 1/2 teaspoon salt and 1/4 teaspoon pepper. In a Dutch oven, heat oil over medium heat. When it's hot, add chicken pieces, and brown well, turning them occasionally, about 15 minutes (if necessary, cook chicken in two batches to avoid crowding the pan). Transfer to a plate.
• Drain most of the fat from the pan. Add onions, half the bell peppers, 1 tablespoon parsley, bay leaves, thyme, and oregano. Cook until onions are translucent, about 5 minutes. Add wine, and scrape up browned bits from the bottom of the pan with a wooden spoon.
• Stir in tomato sauce. Return chicken to the pan, along with any accumulated juices, and add parsnips, carrots, and remaining bell peppers. Add enough water to barely cover; bring to a boil. Reduce heat, partially cover the pan, and simmer until chicken is almost cooked through, about 15 minutes. Uncover pan, and continue simmering until chicken is done and the liquid thickens slightly, 10 to 15 minutes. Stir in remaining 2 tablespoons parsley, and serve.

Steps:

• Combine flour, salt, pepper, sage, marjoram, and paprika in a bowl; mix well.
• Set aside the back, neck, and giblets of the chicken to be used for soup or frozen for later use.
• Dredge remaining chicken pieces in flour.
• Shake off excess flour and place on a rack. Reserve any remaining flour.
• Heat oil to 325ºF in a large skillet with a tightly-fitting lid.
• Add dredged chicken and fry 10 to 15 minutes until golden brown, turning occasionally.
• Remove chicken to platter and keep warm.
• Reduce heat to medium.
• Pour off all except 2 tablespoons of the oil from the skillet.
• Add 2 tablespoons of the reserved flour mixture to the skillet and cook, stirring frequently, until the flour turns golden brown.
• Add the onions and mushrooms and continue to cook, stirring constantly, until the onions are translucent.
• Pour in the chicken broth and white wine.
• Bring back to a boil while scraping cooked-on bits from the bottom of the pan with a spatula.
• Continue to cook, stirring constantly, until sauce starts to thicken.
• Use a whisk to remove lumps if necessary.
• Return the chicken to the pan and reduce heat to low.
• Cover and simmer for for 1 hour.
• Just before serving stir in sour cream and parsley.
• Serve over rice, mashed potatoes, or egg noodles.
