Provided by Food Network Kitchen

Categories     main-dish

Time 2h5m

Yield Serves 4

Number Of Ingredients 10

3 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
1 medium onion, chopped
1 3/4 cups low-sodium chicken broth
1 cup brown basmati rice
Zest and juice of 2 navel oranges
Kosher salt
Four 6-ounce boneless, skinless chicken thighs
Freshly ground black pepper
2 tablespoons chopped fresh mint
2 tablespoons toasted pine nuts

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F. Heat 1 tablespoon of the oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Add the onions and cook, stirring, until just beginning to brown and soft, about 5 minutes.
  • Add the onions, chicken broth, rice, 1/4 cup of the orange juice, 2 teaspoons of the orange zest, 1 tablespoon of oil and 3/4 teaspoon salt to a 2-quart baking dish and stir to combine.
  • Toss the chicken with the remaining 1 tablespoon oil, 1/4 teaspoon salt and 1/4 teaspoon pepper in a medium bowl. Nestle the chicken into the rice mixture. Cover the dish with foil and transfer it to the oven, being careful not to spill.
  • Bake for 55 minutes. Remove the foil and drizzle the chicken with 2 tablespoons of the orange juice. Continue to bake until most of the liquid has been absorbed, the chicken is fully cooked and the rice is tender, about 50 minutes more.
  • Drizzle the chicken with the remaining orange juice. Sprinkle the mint, pine nuts and desired amount of remaining orange zest over the dish and serve.

EARLONNE'S CHICKEN AND BROWN RICE



Earlonne's Chicken and Brown Rice image

Layered with savory, satisfying flavors, this one-pan recipe was inspired by a dish Earlonne Woods regularly prepared for himself while incarcerated at San Quentin State Prison. Mr. Woods, a co-host of the popular Ear Hustle podcast, generally relied on kitchen connections to secure a raw chicken hindquarter. He'd boil it in a hot pot with whatever seasonings he had available, then use the resulting broth to rehydrate some instant brown rice. Offered as a cooking lesson to Mr. Woods, who is now an amateur home cook, this version instead relies on chicken legs browned in butter, a vibrant mix of spices and aromatics, and rich, homemade broth to pack in flavor. And just as the dish did when Mr. Woods served it, it may prompt your diner to compliment the meal: "You put your foot in it!"

Time 2h45m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 17

4 whole chicken legs
Fine sea salt and freshly ground black pepper
1 1/2 cups long-grain brown rice
1 tablespoon garlic powder
1 tablespoon onion powder
1 tablespoon ground coriander
1 tablespoon smoked paprika
1 teaspoon ground cayenne
4 tablespoons unsalted butter (1/2 stick)
2 medium yellow onions, thinly sliced
2 celery ribs, thinly sliced
3 1/2 cups chicken stock, preferably homemade
2 fresh or dried bay leaves
1 cup sour cream or Greek yogurt
2 tablespoons finely chopped cilantro leaves and tender stems, plus more for garnish
1/2 jalapeño, finely chopped
1 garlic clove, finely grated

Steps:

  • Season the chicken generously with salt and pepper and leave it out at room temperature for at least 30 minutes or up to 1 hour. At the same time, add the brown rice to a bowl, cover with water and set aside to soak for at least 30 minutes or up to 1 hour.
  • Adjust oven rack position to lower third and heat to 375 degrees.
  • Make the spice mix: Add garlic powder, onion powder, coriander, paprika, cayenne, 1 tablespoon salt and 1 tablespoon pepper to a small jar or other lidded container and whisk to combine. Cover spice mix and set aside.
  • Set a large (10- or 12-inch) cast-iron or other oven-safe skillet (preferably with a lid) over medium-high heat. Add 2 tablespoons butter and allow to melt. Working in batches if necessary to avoid crowding, carefully lay chicken legs in pan in a single layer, skin-side down, and cook until golden-brown, 4 to 6 minutes, then remove from pan and set aside on a plate, skin-side up. Meanwhile, drain the brown rice in a fine-mesh strainer, shaking to remove excess water; set aside.
  • Add onions and celery to pan along with a generous pinch of salt. Reduce heat to medium and cook until vegetables are tender and lightly golden, 12 to 14 minutes.
  • Return heat to medium-high, add remaining 2 tablespoons butter and allow to melt, then add rice and 4 teaspoons prepared spice mix. Toast rice until golden, about 90 seconds, then add stock and bay leaves.
  • Bring to a boil, then taste and adjust for salt - the stock should be a little saltier than you are comfortable with. Turn off flame, nestle chicken legs into the pan, skin-side up, and cover with a lid or foil. (If using foil, take care to create a tight seal to prevent steam from escaping.) Place onto prepared rack in the oven.
  • Check the pan after 15 minutes to make sure the liquid is at a steady simmer and adjust oven temperature as needed. Cook until rice absorbs the liquid and is tender and chicken is falling off the bone, about 80 to 90 minutes.
  • Increase oven temperature to 450 degrees and remove lid or foil from pan. Adjust rack position to upper third of oven, and place pan on rack. Cook for 8 to 10 minutes until chicken skin is deep golden brown. Remove from oven, and allow to cool for 5 minutes before serving.
  • In the meantime, prepare sauce: In a medium bowl, combine sour cream or yogurt, cilantro, jalapeño, garlic and 1/2 teaspoon salt. Stir, taste and adjust seasoning for salt. Serve with chicken and rice; garnish with cilantro.
  • Cover and refrigerate leftover chicken, rice and sauce for up to 5 days. Cover and store remaining spice mix in a cool, dry place for up to 3 months.

VEGGIE CHICKEN CREOLE



Veggie Chicken Creole image

I ladle this vegetable-packed chicken dish over jasmine rice. It's a long-grain rice that's not as sticky as most, but any cooked rice, including brown, works here.-Virginia Crowell, Lyons, Oregon

Provided by Taste of Home

Categories     Dinner

Time 50m

Yield 8 servings.

Number Of Ingredients 17

2 medium green peppers, chopped
1 large onion, thinly sliced
2 celery ribs, chopped
4 garlic cloves, minced
4 teaspoons canola oil, divided
1/2 pound fresh mushrooms, sliced
2 cans (14-1/2 ounces each) diced tomatoes, undrained
1/2 cup chicken broth
2 tablespoons minced fresh oregano or 2 teaspoons dried oregano
2 tablespoons lemon juice
1 tablespoon minced fresh basil or 1 teaspoon dried basil
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon pepper
1/2 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes
2 pounds boneless skinless chicken breasts, cubed
Hot cooked rice
Minced fresh parsley, optional

Steps:

  • In a large saucepan, saute the green peppers, onion, celery and garlic in 2 teaspoons oil until tender. Add mushrooms; cook until liquid has evaporated. Stir in the tomatoes, broth, oregano, lemon juice, basil and spices. Bring to a boil. Reduce heat; cover and simmer 5-10 minutes or until slightly thickened and flavors are blended., Meanwhile, in a Dutch oven, saute chicken in remaining oil in batches until no longer pink. Return chicken to pan; stir in sauce. Heat through, stirring to loosen browned bits from pan. Serve over rice; garnish with parsley if desired. Freeze option: Freeze cooled chicken and sauce mixture in freezer containers. To use, partially thaw in refrigerator overnight. Heat through in a covered saucepan, gently stirring and adding a little broth or water if necessary.

Tips:

  • Mise en place: Before you start cooking, make sure you have all your ingredients and tools ready. This will help you stay organized and avoid scrambling.
  • Use a heavy-bottomed pot: This will help to evenly distribute the heat and prevent the chicken from sticking.
  • Brown the chicken in batches: If you try to brown all the chicken at once, it will steam instead of brown. Brown the chicken in batches in a single layer, removing each batch as it is browned.
  • Do not overcook the chicken: Chicken is done when it reaches an internal temperature of 165 degrees Fahrenheit. Overcooked chicken will be dry and tough.
  • Use a flavorful stock: The stock you use will add a lot of flavor to the rice, so choose a stock that you like the taste of. You can use chicken stock, vegetable stock, or even beer.
  • Let the rice rest before serving: After the rice is cooked, let it rest for 5 minutes before serving. This will allow the rice to absorb all the liquid and become fluffy.

Conclusion:

Creole chicken with long-grain brown rice is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for a weeknight meal. The chicken is flavorful and juicy, and the rice is fluffy and flavorful. This dish is sure to please everyone at the table.
