Spicy Chicken With Sweet Potatoes Recipes

KOREAN SPICY CHICKEN AND POTATO (TAK TORITANG)

Steps:

• In a large pot over medium heat, mix the chicken, potatoes, carrots, onion, sugar, and garlic. Pour in water and soy sauce, and stir in sugar and hot pepper paste.
• Bring to a boil, reduce heat to low, and simmer 45 minutes, until chicken juices run clear, vegetables are tender, and liquid has thickened.

SPICY CHICKEN AND SWEET POTATO STEW

Steps:

• Heat olive oil in a large pot over medium heat. Stir in onion and garlic; cook and stir until the onion has softened and turned translucent, about 5 minutes. Stir in sweet potato, bell pepper, chicken, tomatoes, and 2 cups of water. Season with salt, chili powder, cumin, oregano, cocoa powder, cinnamon, and red pepper flakes. Increase heat to medium-high and bring to a boil. Dissolve flour in 2 tablespoons water, and stir in to boiling stew. Reduce heat to medium-low, cover, and simmer until the potatoes are tender but not mushy, 10 to 20 minutes. Stir the stew occasionally to keep it from sticking.
• Once the potatoes are done, stir in corn and kidney beans. Cook a few minutes until hot, then stir in cilantro before serving.

SPICY MANGO SWEET POTATO CHICKEN

Steps:

• Place the sweet potatoes into a saucepan and fill with enough water to cover. Simmer over medium-high heat until tender, about 15 minutes. Drain and set aside.
• Meanwhile, heat 2 tablespoons of vegetable oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Stir in chicken, and cook until no longer pink in the center, about 5 minutes; set aside. Stir garlic into the skillet, and cook for a few minutes, until fragrant. Pour in the tamari, 3/4 cup of water, honey, and hot sauce. Bring to a simmer, then stir in the sweet potato, chicken, mango, and red pepper flakes. Cook and stir until hot. Dissolve the cornstarch in 1 tablespoon of water, and stir into the simmering mixture; stir until thickened.

SPICY CHICKEN BARLEY SOUP WITH SWEET POTATOES AND SPINACH

Steps:

• Heat the oil in a large soup pot over high heat.
• Add the onion and salt and saute until limp, about 3 minutes.
• Add all the spices and saute until fragrant, about 2 minutes.
• Add the tomato paste and saute for another minute, until darkened but not burned (if the tomato paste looks too dark too quickly, lower the heat).
• Add the garlic and continue to saute for 1 minute longer.
• Return the heat to high if you lowered it, then add the broth, 2 cups water, and the barley to the pot.
• Bring to a boil and let simmer for 30 minutes.
• Add the sweet potato and continue to cook until the barley and sweet potato are soft, about 30 minutes to an hour more, adding more water to the pot if necessary (it should not get too thick).
• Add the chicken, partially cover the pot, lower the heat to med-low, and simmer for 10 minutes.
• Add the spinach and cilantro to the pot and continue simmering until the spinach is wilted, about 5 minutes longer.
• Stir in the lemon juice and more salt if desired.
• Serve garnished cilantro and lemon wedges.

SPICY SHEET-PAN CHICKEN WITH SWEET POTATOES AND KALE

Steps:

• In a large shallow mixing bowl, combine the harissa and yogurt. Pat the chicken dry, then season all over with salt and pepper. Add the chicken to the yogurt mixture, gently rubbing until fully coated, and set aside for 15 minutes.
• Heat the oven to 450 degrees and place a rack in the lower third and one 6 inches from the broiler. On a sheet pan, toss the sweet potato, kale and onion with 3 tablespoons oil. Season with cumin, salt and pepper, massaging the kale as you do so. Clear four spaces for the chicken pieces, then place them skin-side up on the pan. (It may look messy and crowded, but the kale will shrink down as it cooks.)
• Roast on the lower rack, 30 to 35 minutes, stirring the vegetables halfway and rotating the tray, until the chicken skin is crispy and the juices run clear, the squash is tender and the kale is crispy. If the vegetables are done, but the chicken skin is not as crispy as you'd like, remove the vegetables from the sheet pan and place just the chicken under the broiler for another 1 to 3 minutes.
• Meanwhile, in a small serving bowl, combine the parsley, lime zest and half the lime juice with the remaining 1/4 cup oil and the red-pepper flakes. Season to taste with salt, pepper and additional lime juice. Serve the chicken and vegetables with the herb oil to drizzle over top.
