This stuffing, with its pleasant herb flavor, is a nice change of pace from traditional bread stuffing. The crunch comes from sunflower kernels. (Leftovers would be great in the Chicken Jambalaya recipe above.)

Provided by Food Network Kitchen

Categories     main-dish

Time 1h5m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 11

1/2 cup sushi rice
2 teaspoons sesame seeds
2 tablespoons vegetable oil, plus more for drizzling
1 shallot, finely chopped
1/4 cup chopped canned water chestnuts (drained)
4 teaspoons finely chopped peeled fresh ginger
1 tablespoon plus 1 teaspoon low-sodium soy sauce
2 teaspoons honey
2 scallions, thinly sliced
Kosher salt and freshly ground pepper
4 skinless, boneless chicken breasts (about 8 ounces each)

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F. Cook the rice as the label directs. Transfer to a medium bowl. Toast the sesame seeds in a medium nonstick skillet over medium-high heat, stirring occasionally, until browned, 3 to 5 minutes. Add to the rice.
  • Return the skillet to medium-high heat. Add the vegetable oil, then add the shallot, water chestnuts and ginger. Cook, stirring, until the shallot is tender and lightly browned, about 3 minutes. Add to the rice.
  • Mix 1 tablespoon soy sauce with 1 teaspoon honey until smooth. Stir into the rice along with half the scallions; season lightly with salt and pepper.
  • Halve each chicken breast horizontally, cutting three-quarters of the way through. Open the chicken like a book; season with salt and pepper. Divide the rice among the chicken, firmly pressing the mixture together on one side of each breast. Fold the chicken halves back together and secure with a few toothpicks. Rub with the remaining 1 teaspoon each soy sauce and honey; season with salt and pepper.
  • Transfer the chicken to a baking sheet. Drizzle with vegetable oil and roast until a thermometer inserted into the stuffing registers 165 degrees F, 20 to 25 minutes. Discard the toothpicks and sprinkle the chicken with the remaining scallions.

GEORGIAN STUFFED CHICKEN



Georgian Stuffed Chicken image

This recipe was inspired by the cuisine of Georgia, on the Black Sea. The stuffing is a simple affair of rice cooked with onions, garlic and dried sour cherries. Parsley is forked through before spooning the rice into the chickens. And yes, chickens: I take the view that one bird is a meal, two is a feast.

Provided by Nigella Lawson

Categories     dinner, main course

Time 2h

Yield 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 8

2 5-pound chickens
6 tablespoons butter
2 onions, peeled and finely chopped
2 cloves garlic, finely chopped
1 cup basmati rice
1/2 cup dried sour cherries, roughly chopped
Salt and freshly ground black pepper
1/4 cup chopped parsley

Steps:

  • Remove any fat from cavities of chickens, and place fat in a wide saucepan. Add 4 tablespoons of the butter and place over medium heat. When butter melts, add onions and garlic. Sauté until onion softens and begins to brown, about 5 minutes.
  • Discard any remaining hard bits of chicken fat. Add rice and chopped cherries to pan. Stir well, and add 2 cups water and salt to taste. Bring to a boil, cover and reduce heat to as low as possible. Cook for 15 minutes. Meanwhile, heat oven to 425 degrees.
  • Season rice mixture with salt and pepper to taste and stir in parsley. Spoon rice into cavities of both chickens. Use kitchen twine to tie legs together tightly so stuffing is secure.
  • Place chickens in a roasting pan and rub with remaining 2 tablespoons butter. Place in oven and roast until skin is crisp and golden and juices run clear when pierced near the thigh with a knife, 1 1/2 to 2 hours. Allow chicken to rest before carving. Serve each portion of chicken with some stuffing.

TRADITIONAL RICE STUFFING

2 1/2 cups cooked calrose/sushi rice
1 tablespoon canola oil
1 tablespoon minced garlic

2 cups canola oil

Steps:

  • Pre-heat oven to 550 degrees. Rub chicken with oil, then salt and pepper. Place chicken, breast side up, in the oven and cook for about 25 minutes or until golden brown. May have to rotate the chicken for even coloring. As chicken is cooking, in a saute pan, add a little oil and quickly brown the garlic, ginger, scallions and jalapeno. Add mixture to cooled rice. Rice should end up a bit sticky. Check for seasoning. When chicken is fully browned, stuff with rice and turn the oven down to 300 degrees. Cover with foil to prevent burning. Chicken will take another 45 to 55 minutes. Chicken is done when one can move the wing back and forth with great ease. Allow chicken to rest for 10 minutes before serving.
  • In a pot of boiling, well salted water, blanch scallion and spinach for 30 seconds and shock in ice bath. Squeeze out water and place in blender cup with salt and sugar. With blender on high speed, add canola oil in a steady stream. Blend for 5 minutes until cup gets slightly warm. This oil may be done a day in advance and will keep in the refrigerator for at least 1 week.

Whole chickens are so easy to make and really look impressive on the dinner table. This recipe creates a well-seasoned and juicy chicken with a wonderfully flavorful stuffing. I have made this recipe a number of times over the years and have always had outstanding results and raves. I found the recipe in 365 Ways to Cook Chicken. Sometimes I add cooking wine to the water that the rice cooks in.... otherwise I really don't need to change a thing. --Note-- This Chicken makes an Outstanding Chicken Salad for sandwiches the next day. Simply mix the left over chicken and stuffing with mayonnaise. It is hard to get the chicken salad onto the bread without eating it all before hand!

Tips:

  • To achieve a crispy, golden-brown crust on your chicken, pat it dry before searing in a hot skillet with butter or oil. This will help the skin render and crisp up beautifully.
  • Use a meat thermometer to ensure that your chicken is cooked through. The internal temperature should reach 165°F (74°C) for boneless, skinless chicken breasts and 175°F (79°C) for bone-in, skin-on chicken thighs.
  • If you don't have stuffing mix on hand, you can easily make your own using bread cubes, herbs, and spices. Simply toss the bread cubes with melted butter, chopped celery, onion, and parsley. Season with salt, pepper, and poultry seasoning, then bake in a preheated oven until golden brown.
  • To make a flavorful and moist rice pilaf, use a combination of chicken broth and water. You can also add vegetables like diced carrots, celery, and peas to the rice for extra flavor and nutrition.
  • Serve the chicken on rice with a side of gravy or your favorite dipping sauce. You can also garnish the dish with fresh herbs like parsley or chives.
