SIMPLE STOVETOP AMISH CHICKEN



Simple Stovetop Amish Chicken image

In my family, we call this simple stove top recipe for chicken Chicken Pot Pie. It is not very pie like, but a very classic German/Amish dish. This is one of my very favorites, I learned to make it with my mom when I was little, this will be the first time I wrote it down! I have had it before with carrots, which I do enjoy, but I prefer it best when it is very simple. This is a very inexpensive dish.

Categories     World Cuisine Recipes     European     German

Time 1h15m

Yield 6

Number Of Ingredients 7

1 (2 pound) roasting chicken
8 cups water, or as needed
1 (28 ounce) can low fat, low sodium chicken broth
3 large baking potatoes, peeled
1 (10 ounce) package wide egg noodles
1 teaspoon salt-free seasoning blend
salt and pepper to taste

Steps:

  • Place the chicken into a large pot, and fill with enough water to cover it. Bring to a boil, cover, and cook over high heat until chicken is easily removed from the bone, about 35 minutes. Turn the chicken over once during this time so it will cook evenly. Cutting the chicken into pieces can speed up the cooking process a bit.
  • While the chicken is cooking, cut two of the potatoes into large chunks, and the other potato into very small cubes.
  • When the chicken is cooked, remove it from the water. Pull off the skin, and place all of the chicken meat in a separate dish. Pull the meat apart in long shreds. Reserve the cooking water in a separate container. Discard chicken skin and bones.
  • Pour the chicken broth into the pot, and add potatoes, chicken, salt, and pepper. Pour in 2 to 3 cups of the reserved water. Bring to a boil, and cook for about 15 minutes, until potatoes start to soften. Add 3 more cups of the chicken water, and the noodles. Season with salt-free seasoning blend, salt, and pepper. Cover, and simmer over medium-low heat until the noodles are tender and small potato pieces have dissolved.

WEDDING CHICKEN



Wedding Chicken image

This is a very special recipe: I developed and wrote it for my wedding day. The marinade is fantastic: I've marinated chicken thighs in it for 24 hours, but 48 is optimal. Don't forget to serve with a few pieces of the roasted lemon-that's the best part.

Provided by Naomi Pomeroy

Categories     main-dish

Time 1h

Yield 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 14

1 3.5-inch piece of ginger
4 serrano peppers
10 cloves garlic
2 lemons, preferably organic
8 chicken thighs, skin-on, bone-in
1 tablespoon kosher salt
1/4 cup sugar
1/4 cup apple cider vinegar
3 tablespoons fish sauce
1/2 cup reduced-sodium soy sauce
6 sprigs thyme
1 cup olive oil
Kosher salt
Freshly ground black pepper

Steps:

  • Prepare the marinade: Using a spoon, scrape away the ginger peel, then slice into coins; stack the coins and cut into uniform matchsticks. Thinly slice the peppers and lemons; roughly chop the garlic. Set aside.
  • Marinate the chicken: Place a zip-top bag into a baking dish and add the chicken, salt, sugar, vinegar, fish sauce, and soy sauce. Squeeze the juice from the sliced lemons into the bag, then add the lemons, garlic, ginger, peppers, thyme sprigs, and olive oil. Use your hands to thoroughly combine the ingredients inside the bag. Then seal the bag and chill for 12-48 hours to allow all the flavors to meld and permeate the chicken.
  • Cook the chicken: Preheat oven to 450 degrees F. Evenly arrange chicken thighs skin side up in a roasting pan and pour marinade over the top. Season with salt and pepper and roast until the chicken is cooked through and the sauce is bubbly, 30-35 minutes. Serve with pan juices and pieces of the cooked lemon.

Tips:

  • Use skin-on, bone-in chicken breasts for the most flavorful results.
  • Season the chicken generously with salt, pepper, and garlic powder before cooking.
  • Sear the chicken breasts in a hot skillet until they are golden brown on all sides.
  • Transfer the chicken breasts to a slow cooker and add the cream of chicken soup, sour cream, and onion soup mix.
  • Cook the chicken breasts on low for 6-8 hours, or until they are cooked through.
  • Serve the chicken breasts over rice, mashed potatoes, or noodles.
