Pressed Chicken With Okra Succotash Recipes

Steps:

• Season chicken with salt and pepper. Heat a large cast-iron skillet over medium-high heat. Swirl in 1 tablespoon oil. Add chicken, skin-side down. Top with a parchment round; weight with another heavy skillet and canned goods. Cook until golden on skin side, about 5 minutes. Reduce heat to medium-low. Flip chicken; cook (with parchment and weighted skillet) until a thermometer inserted into thickest part of thigh (without touching bone) registers 165 degrees, 8 to 10 minutes. Transfer to a plate, reserving pan juices.
• Return skillet to medium-high heat. Swirl in remaining 1 tablespoon oil. Add okra, beans, corn, bell pepper, and onion; season with salt and pepper. Cook, stirring, until vegetables are golden in spots, about 5 minutes. Remove from heat; stir in vinegar, then basil. Serve chicken with succotash, pan juices, and more basil leaves.

Steps:

• Combine the cheese and arugula in a bowl. Cut a deep 2-inch-wide pocket in the thickest part of each chicken breast with a paring knife. Stuff with the arugula mixture. Brush with olive oil and season with salt and the Cajun spice blend.
• Preheat a grill to high and brush the grates with vegetable oil. Grill the chicken until blackened and a thermometer inserted into the thickest part registers 155 degrees F, 8 to 10 minutes per side. Transfer to a cutting board.
• Meanwhile, heat 1 tablespoon olive oil in a skillet over high heat. Add the lima beans, squash and corn, season with salt and cook until the squash is just tender, 2 to 3 minutes. Add the tomatoes and cook 2 more minutes. Remove from the heat and stir in the lime juice. Slice the chicken and serve with the succotash

Steps:

• Position a rack in the upper third of the oven; preheat to 425 degrees F. Season the chicken with salt and pepper and place on a foil-lined rimmed baking sheet. Roast until the skin is golden and crisp, about 30 minutes.
• Meanwhile, make the barbecue sauce: Combine the cider, ketchup, Worcestershire sauce and 1 tablespoon mustard in a small saucepan. Bring to a simmer over medium heat and cook, stirring, until slightly thickened, about 15 minutes.
• Melt the butter in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the scallion whites, bell pepper, 1/2 teaspoon salt and a few grinds of pepper. Cook, stirring, until the vegetables soften slightly, about 5 minutes. Add 1/4 cup water, the corn, lima beans and the remaining 1 teaspoon mustard. Bring to a simmer and continue cooking until the vegetables are tender, about 10 minutes. Stir in the scallion greens.
• Turn on the broiler. Brush the chicken with the prepared barbecue sauce and broil until the sauce is thick and bubbling, about 3 minutes. Serve with the succotash.

Steps:

• In a Dutch oven or large saucepan, simmer ham hock in water until tender, 1-1/2 hours. Cool; remove meat from the bone and return to pan. (Discard bone and broth or save for another use.) Add the tomatoes, beans, peas, corn, green pepper, onion, ketchup and seasonings. Simmer, uncovered, for 45 minutes. Add okra; simmer, uncovered, until tender, 15 minutes. Discard bay leaf before serving. Garnish with dill and chives, if desired.

Steps:

• Coat large saucepan with nonstick cooking spray.
• Add sausage and onion.
• Cook about 5 minutes: sausage should be lightly browned and onion is tender.
• Add lima beans, corn, and undrained tomatoes.
• Boil uncovered 8-10 minutes.
• Stir occasionally until liquid is nearly evaporated.
• Serve with something like cornbread or biscuits and enjoy!

Steps:

• Mix together 1 tablespoon chili powder, salt and pepper. Sprinkle on the chicken pieces.
• Heat 1 tablespoon oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium heat. Add chicken pieces and cook 7-8 minutes per side until browned and juices run clear. Remove from skillet and tent loosely with foil.
• In the same skillet, add remaining olive oil and onions. Saute for 3 minutes then add red peppers and garlic. Continue cooking until onion is tender; about 5 minutes.
• Add corn, lima beans, remaining 1 teaspoon chili powder and the vinegar. Cook for 5 minutes. Add broth (or water) and parsley. Heat through.
• To serve, place a bed of succotash on a plate and top with whole or sliced chicken breasts.

Steps:

• Heat oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Add chicken; cook until browned, about 2 minutes per side. Add tomatoes, chicken broth, garlic, salt, and cayenne. Cover, reduce heat, and simmer for 8 minutes. Add okra, cover, and simmer for 3 minutes more.
• Combine water and flour in a small bowl and add to the skillet. Simmer, uncovered, until thick and chicken is no longer pink in the centers, about 2 minutes. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 165 degrees F (74 degrees C). Stir in hot sauce. Serve over rice.
