Princess Roasted Red Pepper Chicken With Creamy Risotto Recipes

CHICKEN WITH RED PEPPER SAUCE

Steps:

• For the chicken: Put the chicken in a resealable bag. Add the olive oil, salt, pepper and Italian seasoning to the bag and smush everything together. Seal and refrigerate.
• For the red pepper sauce: Melt the butter and add the olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the onion and garlic and saute for 2 to 3 minutes or until starting to soften. Add the red peppers and cook for 2 to 3 minutes, until hot.
• Add the broth (if you like a thicker sauce only add 1 cup broth, for a thinner sauce add 2 cups broth), salt and pepper and stir until heated. Splash in the cream.
• Remove the skillet from the heat. Carefully transfer the contents of the skillet to a food processor or blender. Place on the lid and puree the pepper mixture until totally blended (there will still be some texture to the peppers). You can serve the sauce right away or cool it and bag it up.
• When ready to cook, heat a grill pan over medium-high heat and grill the chicken until cooked through, about 4 minutes a side.
• Heat up the red pepper sauce in a pan. Serve everyone a piece of chicken, spoon some sauce over each piece, and garnish with Parmesan shavings and a sprinkling of parsley. Serve with roasted vegetables alongside.

ROASTED RED PEPPER CHICKEN PASTA

Steps:

• Roast your red peppers in the oven at 450° for 15-20 minutes on each side. To prepare for roasting, brush the peppers with 2 T vegetable oil (don't use olive oil as it can smoke at a lower temperature). Place on a shallow baking dish (don't use a cookie sheet as the juices can flow off the sides). For a more in-depth tutorial, see here: http://allrecipes.com/HowTo/Roasting-Peppers/Detail.aspx Make sure to remove the seeds before proceeding.
• While you're waiting for the bell peppers to cool, in a large frying pan, heat 2 T olive oil then add the onion, garlic and spices, except the bay leaves. Saute for 5-7 minutes on medium-high heat.
• Add your (thawed) chicken to the frying pan. Cook through on both sides at medium heat.
• Chop up your roasted red peppers and add to the chicken. Saute for 5 minutes on medium heat.
• If you decide to add a can of tomato paste, I'd recommend skipping this step. At this point, there will be a lot of extra liquid in the chicken mixture. Get out a small sauce pan (I actually used what I was going to boil the pasta in for this) and pour the additional liquid in it and cook on medium to high heat uncovered for 10 minutes while the chicken mixture finishes cooking. Try to get it cooked down a bit. Pour this back into the chicken mixture. You can skip this step if you'd like, but the chicken mixture gets kind of watery.
• Cook pasta according to directions. Drain, and add to the frying pan to toss with chicken mixture. I tossed an additional 2 T of olive oil in at this point, but this is optional. Cook for 2-4 minutes or until you think the mixture is combined.
• Take off heat and serve with grated parmesan or mozzarella cheese.
