Penne Puttanesca With Chicken Recipes

CHICKEN PUTTANESCA

Steps:

• Pat chicken thighs dry and season well with salt and pepper. In a deep-sided 12-inch skillet, heat the oil over medium-high. When the oil shimmers, add the chicken thighs, skin-side down, and cook undisturbed until nicely browned, 5 to 6 minutes. Flip and brown the other side of the chicken thighs, 4 to 5 minutes more. Transfer to a plate and set aside.
• Pour off and discard all but 2 tablespoons of fat from the pan and return the pan to medium heat. Add the onion and cook until softened, 2 to 3 minutes. Add the garlic, anchovies and red-pepper flakes, and cook, stirring occasionally, until the garlic is pale golden and the anchovies have dissolved, about 2 minutes.
• Add the tomato paste and stir until dissolved, then stir in the tomatoes and their juices, scraping up any brown bits that have collected at the bottom of the pan. Stir in the olives and capers, then add the chicken back to the skillet along with any juices that have accumulated. Simmer until the flavors meld and the chicken cooks through, 15 to 20 minutes, adding a tablespoon or so of water if the sauce begins to look dry.
• Taste and adjust seasonings accordingly. Scatter with parsley and oregano, if using. Divide chicken among plates or bowls, spooning additional sauce over top.

PENNE ALLA PUTTANESCA

Steps:

• Cook the pasta and the sauce: Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add the pasta to the boiling water, stir, and cook until al dente, about 3 minutes less than what the box advises. Meanwhile, prepare the sauce by heating oil in a skillet over low heat. Rinse the anchovies and the capers under cold water to remove the salt, then soak in a small bowl of water for several minutes. Remove the pits from the olives by quickly smashing them with the side of a knife, then fillet the anchovies by removing the backbone (the longer they're soaked, the easier this will be). Add the anchovies, capers, garlic, olives, and parsley to the skillet, and cook until the anchovies are broken up and the garlic is lightly browned. Using a fork or your hands, break up the tomatoes in a mixing bowl and add to the skillet. Simmer sauce for 1-2 minutes, then check for seasoning (sauce will be naturally salty) and adjust with pepper.
• Assemble the dish: Perform the pasta "marriage ceremony" by reserving 1 cup of the pasta water and draining the rest. Return the pasta to the pot. Add the pasta water and puttanesca sauce into the pot. Cook over low heat, gently tossing the pasta with the sauce for 2 minutes to allow it to marry with the sauce. The pasta should still be firm to the bite. Transfer to a platter or bowl, garnish with more chopped parsley, and serve.
