JIMMY'S CACHAPAS



Jimmy's Cachapas image

These corn cakes make a great accompaniment to the adobo chicken that is a favorite at Jimmy's Bronx Cafe. The recipe comes courtesy of the restaurant's owner, Jimmy Rodriguez.

Provided by Martha Stewart

Categories     Food & Cooking     Breakfast & Brunch Recipes     Bread Recipes

Number Of Ingredients 8

5 ears corn, shucked
1/4 cup milk
2 tablespoons sugar
1/2 teaspoon coarse salt
1/4 teaspoon freshly ground pepper
1 large egg
3/4 cup finely ground cornmeal
4 tablespoons unsalted butter

Steps:

  • In the bowl of a food processor fitted with the metal blade, puree the corn with milk, sugar, salt, pepper, egg, and cornmeal. The batter should be the consistency of a thick pancake batter.
  • Heat a large nonstick saute pan over low heat. Add 1 tablespoon butter. When the butter has melted and is hot, add batter, forming 3-inch rounds. Cook for 2 minutes, turn, and cook for 2 minutes more. Remove from pan and set aside. Repeat process with remaining butter and batter. The cachapas may be made 2 hours in advance and kept uncovered at room temperature. They may be reheated in a 350-degree oven until heated through.

Tips:

  • Use a quality cut of chicken. Bone-in, skin-on chicken thighs are ideal for this recipe, as they will stay moist and flavorful during cooking.
  • Make sure to marinate the chicken for at least 30 minutes. This will allow the flavors of the marinade to penetrate the chicken and make it more flavorful.
  • Don't overcrowd the pan when cooking the chicken. If the chicken is too crowded, it will not cook evenly.
  • Cook the chicken over medium heat. This will help to prevent the chicken from burning and will allow it to cook evenly.
  • Baste the chicken with the marinade while it is cooking. This will help to keep the chicken moist and flavorful.
  • Serve the chicken with your favorite sides. Rice, beans, and vegetables are all great options.

Conclusion:

Adobo chicken is a delicious and easy-to-make Filipino dish that is perfect for any occasion. The combination of soy sauce, vinegar, garlic, and bay leaves gives the chicken a unique and flavorful taste. Whether you are serving it for a weeknight dinner or a special occasion, adobo chicken is sure to be a hit.
