Categories     main-dish

Time 5h15m

Yield 6 to 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 14

1 whole chicken
Olive oil
2 onions quartered and not peeled
5 cloves garlic
4 stalks celery
1 pound boudin, or an Italian sausage stuffing
1/2 cup chopped onion
Butter
Cajun seasoning, to taste
Cayenne pepper, to taste
White wine or chicken stock
Cornstarch
Smothered okra and tomatoes, for service, optional
Butterbeans, for service, optional

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 375 degrees F.
  • Starting from backbone remove all bones except for maybe the tips of the wings. Reserve bones.
  • For the chicken stock:
  • To a medium saucepan over medium-high heat, add about 2 to 3 tablespoons olive oil. Once heated, add the vegetables and saute until onions are translucent. Next add the chicken bones and cover with water by about 1 to 2 inches. Bring the mixture to a boil. Once at a boil, reduce the heat and continue to simmer for about 3 to 4 hours, skimming the top as necessary. Next, remove the saucepan from the heat and strain. Either allow the stock to cool down and refrigerate or keep warm until needed.
  • For the stuffed chicken:
  • Stuff boudin mixture into the chicken and sew back together to reform chicken shape. Place chopped onion in bottom drip pan of a 2 piece roasting pan. Place the chicken, breast-side up, in the roasting pan. Place a small piece of butter under the skin on each chicken breast. Season chicken well with Cajun seasoning and cayenne pepper. Place in oven covered at 375 degrees F for about 45 minutes, then uncover and cook an additional 15 to 30 minutes. Deglaze drip pan with white wine or chicken stock and reduce. Pour into strained chicken stock. In a small bowl combine 1 tablespoon cornstarch with 3 tablespoons cold water and whisk until combined. Whisk the cornstarch slurry into the stock mixture and bring to a boil, allowing the sauce to thicken. If the sauce is too thin, add more cornstarch slurry. If it's too thick, add more water. After chicken has rested, top with the gravy and serve with a side of smothered okra, tomatoes and butterbeans, if desired.

This is a Paula Deen recipe I found. It has become a household favorite. It makes a large pan, more than we can eat at one time. I use my sealer mate, divide what's left and freeze for later use. This dish is great by its self or serve with your favorite veggies. This is a very worthy recipe! Note: I usually double the noodles...

EASY CHICKEN BOUDINE

Easy & very tasty chicken & noodles. I use a rotisserie chicken to save time. Good way to use left-over chicken also. I adapted this from a Paula Deen recipe so it is lower in sodium and fat. In addition to being delicious, it can be made ahead & refrigerated, cooked then frozen, or enjoyed right out of the oven.

CHICKEN BOUDINE



CHICKEN BOUDINE image

Categories     Soup/Stew     Chicken

Number Of Ingredients 10

2 cups cooked egg noodles
2 (10 3/4-ounce) cans cream of mushroom soup
1/2 cup chicken broth
1/4 cup dry sherry
4 cups chopped cooked chicken
3 cups grated sharp cheese, your choice, divided
1 (2 1/4-ounce) package slivered almonds, toasted
1/4 cup drained, chopped pimentos
1 (4-ounce) can sliced mushrooms, drained
Salt and pepper

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. In a large bowl, toss together the noodles, soup, broth, and sherry. Add the chicken, 2 cups of the cheese, the almonds, pimento, mushrooms, and salt and pepper, to taste, and toss gently to combine. Transfer the mixture to a greased 13 by 9 by 2-inch casserole and top with the remaining cup of cheese. Bake for 30 minutes, or until bubbly.

Tips:

  • Use a variety of chicken pieces. This will give your boudin a more complex flavor and texture. Chicken thighs and legs are good choices, as they are more flavorful than chicken breasts.
  • Don't overcook the chicken. This will make it tough and dry. Cook the chicken until it is just cooked through, then remove it from the heat and let it cool slightly.
  • Use a good quality rice. This will help to ensure that your boudin is light and fluffy. Medium-grain rice is a good choice, as it is less likely to clump together.
  • Season the boudin well. Use a combination of salt, pepper, garlic powder, onion powder, and cayenne pepper to taste. You can also add other spices, such as paprika, cumin, or thyme.
  • Let the boudin cool completely before slicing and serving. This will help to keep the boudin from falling apart.

Conclusion:

Chicken boudin is a delicious and versatile dish that can be enjoyed for breakfast, lunch, or dinner. It is also a great way to use up leftover chicken. With a little planning and effort, you can easily make your own chicken boudin at home. So next time you are looking for a new and exciting way to cook chicken, give chicken boudin a try. You won't be disappointed!
