Chicken Breasts With Baba Ghanoush Recipes

BROILED CHICKEN THIGHS WITH BABA GHANOUSH, APRICOTS AND CINNAMON

Steps:

• Preheat broiler on high. Season thighs generously with salt and pepper and cinnamon. Place, skin side down, on a baking or roasting rack set on a rimmed, foil-lined baking sheet. Broil for about 10 minutes. Turn and continue to broil until skin is deep golden brown and chicken is just cooked through, another 5 to 6 minutes. Meanwhile, heat olive oil in a large saute pan over medium heat. Add tomato and season with salt and pepper. Cook, stirring, for about 1 minute. Add baba ghanoush and apricots. Continue to cook, stirring occasionally, until mixture is hot throughout, about 3 to 4 minutes. Season to taste with salt and pepper; stir in mint. Serve with chicken.

CHICKEN SALAD PITA WITH BABA GHANOUSH

Steps:

• Whisk the vinegar, mint, red pepper flakes, 1 clove garlic and 1/4 teaspoon salt in a shallow dish. Gradually whisk in 3 tablespoons olive oil. Add the chicken and marinate about 15 minutes.
• Meanwhile, mix the tomatoes, cucumber and the remaining 1 clove garlic in a bowl. Drizzle with olive oil and season with salt and pepper.
• Preheat a grill pan over medium-high heat. Grill the chicken until cooked through, 2 to 3 minutes per side. Transfer to a cutting board and slice into 1/2-inch-thick strips. Toss with the vegetables.
• Brush the pitas with the remaining 1 tablespoon olive oil and season with salt. Grill, turning once, until marked. Place a pita on each plate and spread with baba ghanoush. Top with lettuce and chicken salad and drizzle with any juices from the bowl.
