ONE-PAN CHICKEN WITH PEPERONATA AND OLIVES

Steps:

• Heat oven to 425 degrees. In a 9-by-13-inch or 3-quart baking dish, combine bell peppers, garlic, thyme and 4 tablespoons oil. Season with salt and pepper, toss to coat and arrange in an even layer. Roast until softened, about 20 minutes. Stir in tomatoes, olives and vinegar.
• In a large bowl, combine chicken with remaining 1 tablespoon oil and season with salt and pepper. Toss to coat and arrange on top of pepper mixture. Roast until chicken is golden and cooked through and peperonata is tender and saucy, about 25 minutes. Discard thyme sprigs.
• Divide chicken among plates and top with peperonata and remaining pan juices. Sprinkle with chives.

POLLO EN PEPITORIA

Steps:

• Put the saffron in a small bowl with 75ml of just-boiled water. Stir and set aside. Heat 2 tbsp of the oil in a broad, shallow casserole dish. Cook the garlic until pale gold in colour, then add the blanched almonds and bread, and continue to fry until everything is golden. Tip into a food processor with some salt and pepper and the parsley, and whizz together.
• Heat 2 more tbsp of the oil in the pan and brown the chicken all over, seasoning as you cook. Put in a bowl and set aside.
• Remove all but about 2 tbsp of chicken fat from the pan and cook the onion, carrot and celery until golden. Add the sherry, stirring to dislodge any brown bits that have stuck to the pan. Pour in the stock and the saffron (with its water), and bring to the boil, then turn the heat down to a simmer. Add the spices and bay leaves, and put the chicken back in the pan with any juices. Season and gently cook the chicken for about 40 mins with the lid on.
• Transfer the chicken to a bowl again, leaving the sauce in the pan, and cover with foil to keep warm. Remove the yolks from the eggs and roughly chop the whites. Mash the egg yolks in a small bowl and gradually mix in a couple of tbsp of the sauce. Bring the remaining sauce to the boil to reduce a bit (you want it to just coat the chicken), then turn the heat down. Remove the bay and cinnamon stick. Add the egg yolks and cook for a few mins until the mixture has thickened. Stir in the almond mixture that you made earlier (this will thicken the sauce, too). Put the chicken back in the pan and heat it for about 3 mins, spooning the sauce over it. Season to taste.
• Scatter over the extra parsley, the almonds pieces and the chopped egg whites (if you're going to use them). You can serve this straight from the dish with some rice, if you like.

PERI PERI CHICKEN FEAST RECIPE BY TASTY

Steps:

• Remove the chicken's backbone by using a pair of kitchen scissors. Turn it over and flatten it down to spread the chicken out as much as possible.

• Cover and marinate in the fridge for at least 3 hours or overnight.
• Roast in the centre of a preheated oven for 60 minutes at 200°C (400°F), or until the thickest part of the thigh is 75°C. Once the chicken is cooked through, allow to rest for 10 minutes before serving.

• Use as a dip for your chicken or mix some into mayonnaise or hummus!

PIRI PIRI CHICKEN

Steps:

• Use rubber gloves to mince the chiles and place into a mixing bowl. Add cilantro, garlic, vegetable oil, vinegar, lime juice, salt, and black pepper. Mix piri piri sauce well.
• Place chicken breasts and legs into a resealable plastic bag. Pour in piri piri sauce, seal the bag, and shake gently to completely cover chicken. Put the bag in the refrigerator to marinate at least 4 hours.
• Remove bag from the refrigerator about 30 minutes before cooking to allow chicken to come to room temperature.
• Preheat an outdoor grill for medium heat and lightly oil the grate.
• Remove chicken from the bag; discard bag and cilantro. Cook chicken on the preheated grill, rotating as necessary to cook evenly, until juices run clear and an instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 165 degrees F (74 degrees C), about 25 minutes.
