Provided by Chuck Hughes

Time 5h35m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 30

2 tablespoons smoked paprika
1 tablespoon smoked sea salt
1 tablespoon coriander seeds, ground
1 tablespoon black peppercorns, ground
1/2 teaspoon cayenne pepper
2 cloves garlic, minced
2 tablespoons olive oil
4 chicken drumsticks
4 chicken thighs, deboned
Vegetable oil
1/2 cup canned tomato soup, undiluted
1/4 cup ketchup
3 tablespoons red wine vinegar
2 tablespoons honey
1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
1 teaspoon mustard seeds
1 shallot, minced
1 clove garlic, minced
Juice of 1 lemon
1/2 cup vegetable oil
Salt and pepper
1 head romaine lettuce
1 red onion, minced
3 tablespoons olive oil, divided
1 teaspoon red wine vinegar
Salt and pepper
1/2 cup radishes, julienned
1/4 cup fresh flat parsley, chopped
1 tablespoon chopped fresh oregano
1 tablespoon chopped fresh basil

Steps:

  • For the blackened chicken: Combine all the spices with the garlic and oil in a bowl. Evenly rub the chicken pieces with the spice mixture. Place in a large re-sealable plastic bag or a bowl covered in plastic wrap. Keep in the refrigerator for 1 hour or up to overnight for a more intense flavor.
  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
  • In a cast-iron skillet heat over high heat, add enough vegetable oil to coat the whole bottom of the pan. The pan will be ready when it starts to gently smoke. First place the chicken drumsticks in the skillet (they take the longest to cook) and blacken all sides, about 5 minutes. Add the rest of the chicken pieces and continue in the same manner for another 5 to 7 minutes. Remove from the heat and place the skillet in the oven for 25 minutes. Remove from the oven, set aside and keep warm.
  • For the French vinaigrette: Add the tomato soup, ketchup, vinegar, honey, Worcestershire sauce, mustard seeds, shallot, garlic and lemon juice to a blender and puree all the ingredients together. Slowly add the oil until it emulsifies and becomes thick and creamy. Season with salt and pepper and blend again. (Add a little bit of water if the vinaigrette is too thick.) Store in a tightly covered container in the refrigerator. The vinaigrette can be made ahead and will be good for up to 1 week.
  • For the salad: In a bowl, mix together the romaine lettuce with the red onions, 2 tablespoons of olive oil and the red wine vinegar. Season with salt and pepper. Remove the chicken thighs from the skillet, slice lengthwise and toss into the salad. Mix well and set aside.
  • In another bowl, mix together the radishes, herbs and the remaining 1 tablespoon olive oil. Season with salt and pepper.
  • To serve: Dress the plates with the romaine and chicken thigh salad mix. Top each plate with a blackened chicken drumstick and garnish with the radish salad. Drizzle with the French vinaigrette and serve.

Time 30m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 22

1 ½ cups panko breadcrumbs
¼ cup parmesan cheese, grated
1 teaspoon salt, plus more for taste
1 teaspoon pepper, plus more for taste
1 teaspoon paprika
1 teaspoon garlic powder
2 chicken breasts
1 cup all purpose flour
3 large eggs, beaten
2 tablespoons olive oil
⅔ cup sour cream
⅓ cup buttermilk
¼ cup parmesan cheese, grated
1 tablespoon garlic, minced
1 tablespoon lemon juice
1 tablespoon apple cider vinegar
1 tablespoon olive oil
salt, to taste
freshly ground black pepper, to taste
16 oz mixed greens
2 cups mixed cherry tomato, halved
½ red onion, thinly sliced

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 425˚F (220˚C).
  • In a medium bowl, combine the panko bread crumbs, Parmesan cheese, salt, pepper, paprika, and garlic powder. Mix together with a fork.
  • Season the chicken breasts on both sides with pepper and salt to taste.
  • Add the flour and eggs to 2 separate medium bowls. Dip the chicken breasts in the flour and shake off the excess. Then, dip in the eggs. Finally, dip in the bread crumb mixture. Make sure the chicken is well-coated.

Tips:

  • To achieve the perfect blackened flavor, use a cast iron skillet over high heat. This will create a nice crust on the chicken and lock in the juices.
  • Don't overcrowd the skillet. If you do, the chicken will not cook evenly.
  • Be careful not to overcook the chicken. It should be cooked through, but still moist. Overcooked chicken will be dry and tough.
  • For the dressing, use a good quality mayonnaise. This will make a big difference in the flavor of the salad.
  • Be sure to taste the dressing before adding it to the salad. You may need to adjust the seasonings to your liking.
  • Serve the salad immediately after it is made. This will prevent the dressing from making the chicken soggy.

Conclusion:

Blackened Chicken Salad with Creamy Black Pepper Parmesan Dressing is a delicious and easy-to-make salad that is perfect for a light lunch or dinner. The blackened chicken is flavorful and moist, and the creamy dressing is tangy and rich. This salad is sure to be a hit with your family and friends.
