Charred, spicy, slightly funky, juicy chicken that is equally wonderful by itself or rolled up in a roti, taco-style.

Provided by Priya Krishna

Number Of Ingredients 19

8 cloves garlic
minced
2 tablespoons minced fresh ginger
1 tablespoon finely chopped fresh mint leaves
plus more for garnish
1 tablespoon finely chopped fresh cilantro leaves
plus more for garnish
3 tablespoons olive oil
3 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
from 1 lemon
1 tablespoon ground coriander
1 teaspoon ground turmeric
½ teaspoon red chile powder
1 teaspoon amchur (dry mango powder)
¾ teaspoon kosher salt
4 boneless
skinless chicken breasts
½ to ¾ pound each
1 teaspoon olive oil

Steps:

  • Make the marinade: In a medium bowl, mix the garlic, ginger, mint, cilantro, olive oil, and lemon juice into a paste
  • In a small bowl, mix together the coriander, turmeric, red-chile powder, amchur, and salt, then add the mixture to the garlic-ginger paste and stir well to combine
  • Transfer the marinade to a large resealable bag
  • Make the chicken: Place the chicken breasts in the marinade and seal the bag tightly
  • Use your hands to gently massage the marinade onto the chicken breasts, making sure to evenly coat each breast
  • Refrigerate the chicken for 2 hours
  • Warm a large skillet over medium-high heat
  • Once the pan is quite hot, add the oil, swirling the pan to coat the entire surface
  • Reduce the heat to medium, remove the chicken from the marinade, and add it to the pan
  • Cook the breasts, undisturbed, until they turn lightly golden on one side, 1 to 2 minutes, then flip to cook for 1 to 2 minutes, until they start to become golden on the second side
  • Reduce the heat to low, cover, and cook the chicken for 10 minutes without peeking
  • Turn off the heat (if you have an electric stove, take the pan off the heat) and let the chicken sit, covered, for 10 for 15 minutes, depending on the thickness of the breasts
  • Don't lift the lid, or you'll release the hot steam that cooks the chicken
  • Check to make sure the breasts are cooked through - there should not be any pink in the middle and, if you have a meat thermometer, the chicken should register at least 165°F
  • Place the chicken on a cutting board and slice each breast into strips
  • Garnish with mint and cilantro

GARLIC-GINGER CHICKEN BREASTS WITH CILANTRO AND MINT



Garlic-Ginger Chicken Breasts With Cilantro and Mint image

This chicken, which is the brainchild of my aunt Sonia, is legendary among our cousins. Until recently, though, no one knew what, exactly, went into it. Whenever my aunt would make it on a family vacation, she'd disappear for a half-hour and reemerge with a Ziploc bag filled with the marinade and the chicken breasts. No one (not even her only daughter, Isha) was allowed to know the contents. The marinating chicken would smell so good, I'd legitimately have thoughts about eating it raw, carpaccio-style (which is disgusting, I know!). Well, folks, I am here to tell you that, after much negotiation, I have finally pried that chicken recipe out of Sonia's hands. Both the marinade and the cooking method (low and sort of slow) feel ingenious to me, and the payoff is huge: Charred, spicy, slightly funky, juicy chicken that is equally wonderful by itself or rolled up in a roti, taco-style, and served with various salads and chutneys.

Time 35m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 12

8 garlic cloves, minced
2 tablespoons minced fresh ginger
1 tablespoon finely chopped fresh mint leaves, plus more for garnish
1 tablespoon finely chopped fresh cilantro leaves, plus more for garnish
3 tablespoons fresh lemon juice (from 1 lemon)
3 tablespoons plus 1 teaspoon olive oil
1 tablespoon ground coriander
1 teaspoon ground turmeric
1 teaspoon amchur (dry mango powder), optional
1/2 teaspoon red chile powder, like ground cayenne
3/4 teaspoon kosher salt
4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts (1/2 to 3/4 pound each)

Steps:

  • Make the marinade: Add the garlic, ginger, mint, cilantro, lemon juice and 3 tablespoons oil to a large resealable bag. Seal the bag and massage to combine the ingredients into a paste. Add the coriander, turmeric, amchur (if using), red chile powder and salt, and seal the bag. Shake or massage to combine.
  • Place the chicken breasts in the marinade and seal the bag tightly. Use your hands to gently massage the marinade onto the chicken breasts until each breast is coated. Refrigerate at least 2 hours and up to overnight.
  • Warm a large lidded skillet over medium-high heat. Once the pan is quite hot, add the oil, swirling the pan to coat the entire surface. Reduce the heat to medium, remove the chicken from the marinade and shake gently to remove any excess marinade. Add it to the pan. Working in batches if necessary, cook the breasts, undisturbed, until lightly golden underneath, 1 to 2 minutes, then flip them and cook until lightly golden on the second side, 1 to 2 minutes.
  • Reduce the heat to low, cover, and cook the chicken for 10 minutes (no peeking!). Turn off the heat (if you have an electric stove, take the pan off the heat) and let the chicken sit, covered, for 10 to 15 minutes, depending on the thickness of the breasts. Don't lift the lid, or you'll release the hot steam that finishes cooking the chicken.
  • Check to make sure the breasts are cooked through: There shouldn't be any pink in the middle. If you have a meat thermometer, the chicken should register at least 165 degrees. Place the chicken on a cutting board, and slice each breast into strips. Garnish with mint and cilantro.

BOBBY FLAY'S PAN-ROASTED CHICKEN WITH MINT SAUCE



Bobby Flay's Pan-Roasted Chicken With Mint Sauce image

Bobby Flay served a version of this chicken at Bolo, the elegant little jewel box of a restaurant he had on 22nd Street until 2007, when the building that housed it was sold. It came pan-roasted beneath a blanket of what Flay called Spanish spices, with a vibrant green mint sauce rich with chiles, honey, salt and mustard. The dish was one of the restaurant's best sellers. I ate it about 3,000 times there before getting the recipe and adapting it for those of us who cook at home. Of course you can make the exact same dish with chicken thighs if you want. But some will prefer the breast meat. Some always have.

Provided by Sam Sifton

Time 40m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 16

4 bone-in, skin-on chicken breasts
Kosher salt to taste
2 tablespoons Spanish paprika
2 teaspoons ground cumin
2 teaspoons ground mustard
2 teaspoons ground fennel seed
1 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
3 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
1 cup fresh mint leaves
½ cup fresh parsley leaves
4 cloves garlic, peeled and roughlychopped
1 serrano chile, seeds removed androughly chopped
1 tablespoon honey
1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
½ cup extra-virgin olive oil
Kosher salt and freshly groundblack pepper.

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 425. Rinse the chicken well, then dry it with paper towel. Season the chicken aggressively with salt. Combine the remaining dry ingredients in a small bowl, and rub the mixture all over the skin of the chicken breasts.
  • Heat the oil in a large, oven-safe sauté pan or skillet set over medium heat. When it is shimmering, put the breasts into the pan skin side down, and cook, unattended, until the skin is golden brown, approximately 6 to 8 minutes. Using tongs, turn the chicken breasts over, and place the pan in the oven. Roast until the chicken is golden brown all over and the meat cooked entirely through, approximately 12 to 15 minutes. Remove the chicken to a warmed platter, and allow to rest.
  • Meanwhile, put the mint, parsley, garlic and serrano into a food processor, and pulse into a paste. Add the honey and mustard, and pulse again, until combined. With the motor running, slowly add the olive oil until the mixture has become emulsified. Transfer the mixture to a bowl, and if necessary, whisk in a few tablespoons of water to thin the sauce. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
  • Spoon some of the sauce over each chicken breast, and serve, with the remaining sauce on the side. Roasted potatoes with some thinly sliced lemons makes a fine accompaniment, along with sautéed greens.

GINGER CHICKEN WITH CRISP NAPA SALAD



Ginger Chicken With Crisp Napa Salad image

Ginger, garlic and cilantro form the base of an aromatic marinade for this easy stovetop chicken dish. Lightly pounding the chicken breasts increases their surface area, which helps them soak up the marinade and cook evenly. A refreshing and crunchy salad of napa cabbage, cucumbers and fresh mint rounds out the dish into the perfect light lunch or dinner. To make this for a larger group, simply double the recipe.

Categories     dinner, weekday, poultry, main course

Time 30m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 13

4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts (about 6 ounces each), patted dry
Kosher salt
2 tablespoons finely grated ginger (from a 2-inch piece)
1 garlic clove, finely grated
¼ cup chopped fresh cilantro
½ teaspoon ground cayenne
6 tablespoons neutral oil, such as grape seed or canola
1 lime
½ small head napa cabbage, cut lengthwise (about 1 pound)
1 seedless cucumber (Persian or English), thinly sliced
½ cup sliced chives (1/2-inch lengths)
½ cup mint leaves
2 tablespoons rice vinegar, distilled white vinegar or apple cider vinegar

Steps:

  • Place chicken breasts between two sheets of parchment paper or plastic wrap. Using a rolling pin or a bottle, pound each to an even ½-inch thickness. Season both sides with salt.
  • In a small bowl, combine the ginger, garlic, cilantro, cayenne and 4 tablespoons oil. Finely grate the lime zest directly into the bowl; reserve the lime. Rub both sides of the chicken breasts with the marinade. Let sit at room temperature for at least 10 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, cut the cabbage lengthwise, core it, then slice crosswise into ½-inch-thick strips. Transfer to a large bowl and toss in the cucumber slices, chives and mint leaves.
  • Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Pour in 1 tablespoon oil and heat until shimmering, about 1 minute. Place the chicken breasts in the skillet and cook, turning once, until golden brown and cooked through, about 4 minutes per side. Cut the reserved lime in half and squeeze the juice over the chicken; slice the chicken. Transfer the chicken to serving plates and slice.
  • Toss the cabbage mixture with the vinegar and remaining 1 tablespoon oil. Season to taste with salt and serve alongside the chicken.
