Time 30m

Yield 4 servings of each dish

Number Of Ingredients 19

4 pieces boneless, skinless chicken breast, 6 to 8 ounces each
2 tablespoons balsamic vinegar, eyeball it, just enough to coat chicken lightly
2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
3 stems rosemary, leaves stripped and chopped, about 2 tablespoons
Salt and coarse black pepper
4 cloves garlic, cracked away from skin with a whack against the flat of your knife
1 package, 12 to 16 ounces, fresh ravioli, any flavor filling
3 tablespoons butter, cut into small pieces
2 tablespoons balsamic vinegar
2 handfuls grated Parmigiano-Reggiano
Salt and pepper
1/4 cup chopped flat-leaf parsley, a couple of handfuls
6 slices pancetta, chopped
2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil, 2 turns of the pan
1 small shallot, finely chopped
2 teaspoons sugar
2 tablespoons balsamic vinegar, eyeball it
1 bunch, about 10 ounces flat-leaf spinach
Salt and pepper

Steps:

  • Coat chicken in balsamic vinegar, then olive oil. Season chicken with rosemary, salt and pepper and let stand 10 minutes.
  • Bring a large pot of water to a boil for ravioli. Salt water and drop ravioli in water. Cook 8 minutes or until raviolis expand, float to top of water, and are al dente.
  • Heat a medium nonstick skillet over medium high heat. Add chicken breasts and cracked garlic to the pan. Cook chicken 12 minutes, or until juices run clear, turning occasionally. The balsamic vinegar will produce a deep brown, sweet finish on the chicken as it cooks.
  • When the chicken is 2 or 3 minutes away from done, heat a second skillet over medium low to medium heat. To the second skillet, add butter to the pan and let it begin to brown.
  • Remove chicken from the first skillet and transfer to a warm platter. In a skillet over medium high heat and add the pancetta. Brown the pancetta bits, about 2 or 3 minutes, then transfer to paper towels to drain and return pan to heat, reducing heat to medium. Add oil and shallots to the pan and let the shallots saute 2 minutes.
  • When the butter for the ravioli has browned, add cooked ravioli to the pan and turn in butter to heat through. Add balsamic vinegar to the ravioli and cook a minute or 2 longer to reduce the vinegar and glaze the ravioli. The vinegar will become thick and syrup like. Add cheese, parsley, salt and pepper to the pasta and remove the pan from the heat.
  • To the sauteed shallots for the spinach salad, add sugar and cook sugar with shallots 1 minute. Add vinegar to the pan, scraping up pan drippings. Add spinach to the dressing and turn to wilt and coat it evenly in sweet vinaigrette. Add crisp pancetta to the salad.
  • Serve chicken along side ravioli and spinach salad, all on the same dinner plate.

CHICKEN AND SPINACH PALEO RAVIOLI RECIPE - (4.7/5)



Chicken and Spinach Paleo Ravioli Recipe - (4.7/5) image

Provided by á-2386

Number Of Ingredients 23

4 medium to large yellow squash
1 tablespoon olive oil
1 1/2 pounds ground chicken
1 (8 ounce) bag frozen spinach, thawed
8 ounces mascarpone cheese
1/2 yellow onion, diced
1 clove garlic, minced
Small handful fresh basil leaves
Salt and pepper to taste
Caulif-redo Sauce
Makes several cups
1 head of cauliflower, cored and chopped into large chunks
2 Tbsp. olive oil
1 shallot, minced
1 cup chicken broth
3 Tbsp. shredded parmesan
1/4 cup canned coconut milk
salt/pepper to taste
pinch of nutmeg
1 . Steam cauliflower until fork-tender.
2 . While cauliflower steams, heat olive oil over medium low heat in a small pot. Add shallot and saute for a few minutes, then add chicken broth and heat through.
3 . Add cauliflower, shallot/broth mixture, and remaining ingredients to a blender. Blend until smooth and creamy. Add more coconut milk if needed.
4 . Serve over ANYTHING!!!!

Steps:

  • Cut ends of squash off and slice down the middle so you have two halves. Using the narrowest setting on your mandolin, slice the squash into long, flat strips. You'll end with around 70 or so strips. In a large pan, heat oil over medium heat. Add onion and a pinch of salt and saute for about 5 minutes, until nearly translucent. Add garlic and saute until fragrant. Add ground chicken to onion and garlic and saute until chicken is cooked all the way through. Squeeze all the excess water out of the spinach, then ad chicken, spinach, salt, pepper, and mascarpone to a food processor or blender and puree until mixture reaches desired consistency. Assemble the ravioli by just barely overlapping two strips of squash (pictured above). Do the same over the middle of the first two strips, but perpendicular, creating a cross or "t" shape. Spoon filling in the center of the cross, then bring the ends of the strips together, overlapping each other. If that doesn't make sense, just see the picture above. Secure with a toothpick. Before serving, steam raviolis for about 4 minutes, or until squash is tender and inside is warm. Top with Caulif-redo or sauce of your choice.

Categories     World Cuisine Recipes     European     Italian

Time 2h

Yield 6

Number Of Ingredients 15

4 eggs, beaten
¾ cup water
3 ¾ cups sifted all-purpose flour
1 ½ teaspoons salt
½ pound ground chicken
¾ cup chopped fresh spinach
2 tablespoons finely chopped onion
3 tablespoons melted butter
3 tablespoons freshly grated Asiago cheese
¼ teaspoon salt
¼ teaspoon garlic powder
⅛ teaspoon ground nutmeg
1 pinch ground black pepper to taste
1 (16 ounce) jar marinara sauce
¼ cup freshly grated Asiago cheese for topping

Steps:

  • In a bowl, mix the eggs, water, 2 cups flour, and salt. Gradually mix in the remaining flour until smooth. Divide dough into 2 parts. Cover, and set aside in the refrigerator 20 minutes.
  • In a skillet over medium heat, cook the ground chicken until evenly brown; drain.
  • In a food processor, mix the chicken, spinach, and onion. Transfer to a bowl, and mix with butter, 3 tablespoons Asiago cheese, salt, garlic powder, nutmeg, and pepper.
  • On a lightly floured surface, roll out each part of the dough to 1/8 inch thickness. Cut into 2 inch squares. Place about 1 teaspoon of the chicken mixture in the center of 1/2 the squares, and top with remaining squares. Seal the edges of the squares with a moistened fork to form the ravioli.
  • Bring a large pot of lightly salted water to a boil, and cook the ravioli in small batches for about 8 minutes, or until al dente. Drain, and rinse under cold water.
  • Place the marinara sauce in a saucepan, and cook until heated through. Serve ravioli topped with marinara sauce and remaining Asiago cheese.

Tips:

  • Fresh ingredients: Use the freshest ingredients possible for the best flavor. Fresh spinach, chicken, and cheese will make a big difference in the final dish.
  • Don't overcook the chicken: Cook the chicken until it is just cooked through, but not overcooked. Overcooked chicken will be tough and dry.
  • Use a good quality cheese: The type of cheese you use will greatly affect the flavor of the ravioli. Use a cheese that melts well and has a good flavor.
  • Don't overstuff the ravioli: Only put a small amount of filling in each ravioli. If you overstuff them, they will be difficult to seal and may burst while cooking.
  • Cook the ravioli in a large pot of boiling water: This will help to prevent them from sticking together.
  • Serve the ravioli immediately: Ravioli is best served immediately after it is cooked. If you need to store them, you can do so in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.

Conclusion:

Chicken and spinach ravioli is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for a weeknight meal. With a few simple ingredients, you can create a dish that is both satisfying and nutritious. So next time you are looking for a quick and easy meal, give this chicken and spinach ravioli recipe a try. You won't be disappointed!
