Time 1h10m

Number Of Ingredients 12

1 tablespoon olive oil
3 medium onions, thinly sliced
1 tablespoon minced, peeled fresh ginger
3 cloves garlic, thinly sliced
1/2 teaspoon ground cumin
2 cans (15 ounces each) chickpeas (or 3 1/2 cups fresh chickpeas)
1/2 small lemon, seeded and finely chopped, plus wedges for serving
4 plum tomatoes, coarsely chopped
3 sticks cinnamon
1 whole chicken, cut into pieces, skin removed
Coarse salt and freshly ground pepper

Steps:

Add cumin and stir for 30 seconds. Add chickpeas, lemon, tomatoes, and cinnamon; cook until tomatoes soften slightly, about 3 minutes.
  • Season chicken with 1 1/2 teaspoons salt and 1/2 teaspoon pepper; add to pot. Add 1 1/2 cups water, nestling chicken into liquid. Bring to a boil. Reduce to a gentle simmer and cook, partially covered, until chicken is cooked through, about 40 minutes. Remove chicken.

Steps:

  • Clean the chicken pieces , remove excess fat and pat dry with paper towels.
  • Heat olive oil and butter in a large dutch oven .
  • Add chicken pieces to the pot and brown (skin side down) over medium-high heat until nicely browned. You may need to do this in two batches depending on the size of your pot.
  • Remove chicken from the pot and transfer to a platter. I prefer to remove and discard the skin from the chicken pieces.
  • Using a large spoon, remove all but two tablespoons of the fat and oil.
  • Add onions to the pot and saute until tender.
  • Add garlic and sauté until fragrant, about 1 to 2 minutes.

  • Cover and simmer for approximately 1 hour.
  • If the sauce appears to be too thin, you can simmer uncovered in the last 10 minutes of cooking to reduce it a bit. Stir occasionally to circulate the ingredients. Serve over cooked pasta or orzo and sprinkle with grated cheese.

Categories     Whole Chicken

Time 1h15m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 11

1 whole chicken, cut into 8 pieces, legs, breast and thighs (2 1/2 to 3 pounds)
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
2 teaspoons kosher salt

Steps:

  • Pat chicken dry with paper towels. Mix cinnamon, salt and pepper in a small bowl, then rub all over the chicken pieces.
  • Using a deep, 12" wide skillet, heat the oil until it shimmers (if you have a smaller pan, make 2 batches, using half the oil for each). Add the chicken pieces, being careful not to overcrowd, and cook until very brown, 4-5 min per side.
  • Mince 3 cloves of garlic. Reduce heat to medium-high and add minced garlic and onions. Saute until onions soften and begin to brown, about 5 minute Deglaze with 1/2 c water or broth, using a wooden spoon to scrape up any browned bits from the bottom of the pan.
  • When the deglazing liquid has evaporated to nearly dry, add the remaining 1 1/2 c water or stock, the tomato paste, the Italian seasoning and the remaining 2 cloves of garlic, minced.
  • Return the chicken to the pan, nestling it down in the sauce. If the sauce does not come 3/4 of the way up the side of the chicken pieces, add more water or broth. Cover and simmer over medium-high heat until tender, about 30-40 minutes. Season the sauce with salt and pepper. Sprinkle with Parmesan cheese. Serve with cooked orzo or rice.

GREEK CHICKEN STEW WITH CAULIFLOWER AND OLIVES



Greek Chicken Stew With Cauliflower and Olives image

Chicken, cauliflower, olives, tomatoes, feta - this is a stew of extraordinary flavor and complexity, down to its hints of cinnamon and garlic. The recipe uses skinless chicken legs or thighs; you could substitute ones with the skin if you like. (But don't use chicken breasts, which will dry out.) You can use more or less chicken depending on your needs. And, important to note, you can freeze the finished dish, making it an excellent delivery to new parents or anyone in need of a home-cooked meal.

Categories     dinner, main course

Time 1h15m

Yield 4 to 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 13

2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
1 large red onion, chopped
2 to 4 garlic cloves (to taste), minced
6 to 8 chicken legs and/or thighs, skinned
2 tablespoons red wine vinegar
1 28-ounce can chopped tomatoes, with juice, pulsed in a food processor
1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
Salt and freshly ground pepper
1/2 teaspoon dried thyme, or 1 teaspoon fresh thyme leaves
1 small or 1/2 large cauliflower, cored, broken into florets, and sliced about 1/2 inch thick
12 kalamata olives (about 45 grams), rinsed, pitted and cut in half (optional)
1 to 2 tablespoons chopped flat-leaf parsley
1 to 2 ounces feta cheese, crumbled (optional)

Steps:

  • Heat 1 tablespoon of the oil over medium-high heat in a large, deep, heavy lidded skillet or casserole and brown the chicken, in batches if necessary, about 5 minutes on each side. Remove the pieces to a plate or bowl as they're browned. Pour off the fat from the pan. Add the vinegar to the pan and scrape up all the bits from the bottom of the pan.
  • Add the remaining tablespoon of the olive oil to the pan, and turn the heat down to medium. Add the onion and a generous pinch of salt and cook, stirring often and scraping the bottom of the pan, until it begins to soften, about 5 minutes. Turn the heat to low, cover and let the onion cook for 10 minutes, stirring from time to time, until it is lightly browned and very soft.
  • Add the garlic and stir together for a minute or two more, until the garlic is fragrant, then add the tomatoes and their juice, the cinnamon, thyme, and salt and pepper to taste. Bring to a simmer and simmer 10 minutes, stirring from time to time, until the mixture is reduced slightly and fragrant.
  • Return the chicken pieces to the pot, along with any juices that have accumulated in the bowl. If necessary, add enough water to barely cover the chicken. Bring to a simmer, reduce the heat, cover and simmer 20 minutes.
  • Add the cauliflower and kalamata olives and simmer for another 20 minutes, or until the cauliflower is tender and the chicken is just about falling off the bone. Stir in the parsley, taste and adjust seasonings. Serve with grains, with the feta sprinkled on top if desired.

CHICKEN AND GARLIC STEW



Chicken and Garlic Stew image

Don't let the name of this fool you - it is elegant enough for dinner guests. I've made several slight revisions over the years. I prefer skinless, boneless chicken breasts for the health value, and I do a single layer in a 'bring to the table' shallow baking dish. Suggestion: Spread the soft garlic cloves on some crusty bread, like butter. The flavor is not overpowering!

Categories     Meat and Poultry Recipes     Chicken     Chicken Thigh Recipes

Yield 6

Number Of Ingredients 11

3 tablespoons olive oil
50 cloves garlic, peeled
6 chicken legs, halved
½ cup chopped fresh parsley
½ cup chopped celery
1 teaspoon dried tarragon
1 tablespoon salt
1 teaspoon ground white pepper
½ teaspoon ground allspice
¼ teaspoon ground cinnamon
1 ½ cups white wine

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).
  • Place olive oil in a heavy oven-safe Dutch oven which can be tightly covered. Add 1/3 of the chicken, garlic, parsley, celery leaves, tarragon, salt, white pepper, allspice, cinnamon and dry white wine. Mix. Repeat two more times.
  • Cover pot tightly and place in preheated oven, cook for about 1 1/4 hours. The chicken will not be brown, but moist and succulent. If desired, serve with crusty bread to mop up the sauce.

Tips:

  • Sear the chicken: This step helps to brown the chicken and develop flavor.
  • Use a Dutch oven or heavy-bottomed pot: This type of pot will distribute heat evenly and prevent the stew from burning.
  • Add the cinnamon early in the cooking process: This will allow the flavor of the cinnamon to infuse into the stew.
  • Use a variety of vegetables: This will add flavor and texture to the stew.
  • Simmer the stew for at least 30 minutes: This will allow the flavors to meld and the chicken to become tender.
  • Serve the stew with rice or bread: This will help to soak up the delicious sauce.

Conclusion:

Cinnamon and chicken stew is a flavorful and hearty dish that is perfect for a cold winter day. It is easy to make and can be tailored to your own taste preferences. So next time you are looking for a comforting and delicious meal, give this stew a try. You won't be disappointed!
