Mango Stuffed Chicken With Red Pepper Relish Recipes

MANGO-RED PEPPER CHICKEN

Steps:

• Take 2 teaspoons of chili powder and 2 teaspoons of basil, mix, and dip raw chicken in mixture.
• Over medium heat, saute the garlic in olive oil. (To get optimal taste of garlic, mince well). Then add the chicken and saute until cooked (about 5-7 minutes). Place the chicken in the microwave or oven to keep warm.
• Deglaze the same pan with the rum. Slice the red pepper length wise and saute in pan. If necessary, add a little more olive oil.
• Dice the mango. Turn down heat to medium low. When the red pepper is still slightly crunchy, add the mango, brown sugar or cinnamon, and chili powder. If you like, you can substitute the chili pepper for hot sauce. Cook only for a couple of minutes, until the mango is warm and slightly mushy. If you like it spicier, add more chili powder or hot sauce. Add chicken to sauce in pan for a minute to rewarm.
• Serve over white rice.

STUFFED CHICKEN THIGHS WITH RED PEPPER-TOMATO SAUCE

Steps:

• To make the sauce: Heat olive oil in a large non-reactive saucepan over high heat. Add the garlic clove, bay leaf, peppers, tomatoes, and water and bring to a boil. Lower the heat to medium and simmer until the peppers are tender, about 25 minutes. Add the oregano halfway through cooking. Transfer the mixture to a blender or food processor and puree until smooth. Season the puree with salt and pepper and return it to the pan to keep warm. You should have about 11/2 cups. The sauce can be covered and refrigerated for 1 to 2 days.
• To make the stuffing: Drop the garlic, oregano, olives, and 1 tablespoon of the olive oil into a food processor and process until very finely chopped. Season with salt and pepper, pulse again, and scrape into a small bowl. The stuffing mixture can be made ahead to this point and refrigerated for several days.
• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
• Season the inside of the thighs with salt and pepper. Put about 1 1/2 teaspoons of the olive paste inside each thigh. Tie closed with kitchen string and season with salt and pepper. Season the chicken legs with salt and pepper.
• Heat 2 tablespoons of the olive oil in a large ovenproof skillet over medium-high heat until hot. Lower the heat to medium, add the chicken thighs and legs skin side down and saute until lightly brown all over. Put the skillet in the oven until the chicken is opaque throughout, about 20 minutes. Transfer to a plate and keep warm.
• Pour off the fat from the pan, add the water, place over medium heat, and stir and scrape up all the browned bits from the bottom and sides of the pan. Simmer until slightly reduced. Add 1 cup of the sauce and reheat gently. Add any juices from around the chicken.
• Meanwhile, bring a large pot of water to a boil and add salt. Add the pasta and cook until al dente, about 12 minutes. Drain and return to the pasta pot. Add the remaining sauce and toss well to coat.
• Divide the fettuccine among 4 plates. Slice the thighs and arrange slices and 1 leg next to the fettuccine. Sprinkle with parsley and grated Parmesan. Serve immediately.

SPINACH AND RED PEPPER-STUFFED CHICKEN

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F.
• Mix together the spinach, peppers, breadcrumbs, Parmesan, smoked paprika, 1/4 teaspoon salt and a few grinds of pepper in a small bowl. Set aside.
• Butterfly the chicken: Holding your knife parallel to the cutting board, slice a breast through the middle, stopping about 1/2-inch short of the other side. Open the breast up like a book and flatten it with your palm. Place between two pieces of plastic wrap and pound with a meat mallet to a little less than 1/2-inch thick. Repeat with the remaining breasts.
• Divide the spinach mixture into four portions and place a portion in the center of each breast. Roll the breasts tightly around the filling and secure with kitchen twine. Sprinkle all over with salt and pepper.
• Heat the oil in a large, oven-safe skillet over medium-high heat. Add the roll-ups and cook until golden brown on all sides, about 6 minutes. Transfer the skillet to the oven and cook until an instant-read thermometer inserted into the center of the filling registers 160 degrees F, another 6 to 8 minutes.
• Transfer the roll-ups to a cutting board and cover loosely with foil. Return the skillet to the stovetop over medium heat (be careful, the handle will be very hot). Add the shallots and cook until softened, stirring, about 1 minute. Add the wine and boil until reduced by half, 1 to 2 minutes. Add the chicken broth; boil until reduced by half, about 3 minutes. Off the heat, whisk in the butter and season with salt and pepper.
• Cut away the twine and slice the chicken into 1-inch rounds. Serve with the pan sauce and sprinkle with parsley.

MANGO AND RED PEPPER CHUTNEY

Steps:

• Toss together mangoes, vinegar, brown sugar, raisins, and 1 teaspoon salt.
• Mince and mash ginger, jalapeño, and garlic to a paste with remaining 3/4 teaspoon salt using a large heavy knife, then stir in cumin, coriander, and turmeric.
• Heat oil in a 4-quart heavy pot over moderately high heat until hot but not smoking, then sauté onion and bell pepper, stirring occasionally, until golden, 8 to 10 minutes. Add garlic paste and cinnamon stick, then reduce heat to moderate and cook, stirring, 1 minute. Stir in mango mixture and simmer, covered, stirring occasionally, until mangoes are tender, about 30 minutes. Discard cinnamon stick and cool chutney, uncovered, about 45 minutes.

MANGO RELISH
