DILL PICKLE CHICKEN



Dill Pickle Chicken image

A succulent chicken dish that has a thick rich tangy sauce perfect for dipping crusty bread! I like to serve this over plain noodles, sometimes topping it with Cheddar cheese. Yum, yum, yum. It is super simple and uses ingredients most households always have on hand. Although dill pickles are added, the dish it doesn't taste a bit like pickles; however, they definitely make the dish by adding a special something. Warning--this a lick-your-fingers recipe, enjoy!

Time 1h25m

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 7

4 chicken leg quarters with skin, split into drumsticks and thighs
1 pinch seasoned salt, or to taste
ground black pepper to taste
2 tablespoons olive oil
½ cup balsamic vinegar
1 (14.5 ounce) can stewed tomatoes
½ cup finely chopped dill pickles

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C).
  • Season chicken pieces with seasoned salt and pepper. Heat oil in an oven-proof skillet over medium-high heat; add chicken and cook until golden brown, about 5 minutes per side. Transfer to a plate, discarding any accumulated grease from the skillet.
  • Reduce heat to medium and deglaze the skillet by adding balsamic vinegar. Stir gently to loosen any browned bits, until the vinegar has reduced by half and looks syrupy, 3 to 5 minutes. Add stewed tomatoes and pickles, breaking the tomatoes into smaller pieces with a spoon. Bring to a simmer, about 5 minutes. Return the browned chicken to the skillet, skin-side down, and cover tightly with a lid or foil.
  • Bake in the preheated oven until chicken is no longer pink at the bone and the juices run clear, about 45 minutes. An instant-read thermometer inserted near the bone should read 165 degrees F (74 degrees C). Uncover and continue to cook until the sauce is thick, 10 to 15 minutes. Skim off any accumulated grease before serving.

CHICKEN BREASTS IN DILL-CAPER CREAM SAUCE



Chicken Breasts in Dill-Caper Cream Sauce image

I used another recipe for inspiration and came up with this recipe that is my own creation. The sauteed chicken breasts are topped with a rich and flavorful dill caper cream sauce. This sauce would also be wonderful over whitefish fillets. If you use dried herbs, reduce the quantity to 1/3, as dried herbs are more potent.

Make and share this Cold Poached Chicken Breasts With Cucumber Dill Sauce recipe from Food.com.

Provided by dicentra

Categories     Meat

Time 15m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 7

1 medium cucumber, peeled seeded and grated
1 teaspoon coarse salt
1 cup plain yogurt
1 tablespoon grated onion
1/4 cup minced fresh dill
1/4 teaspoon fresh ground pepper
4 chicken breasts, poached and chilled

Steps:

  • Place grated cucumber in a strainer and sprinkle with salt. Let drain 15-30 minutes.
  • Rinse under cold water and squeeze dry.
  • In a medium bowl, combine cucumber with remaining ingredients except chicken.
  • Stir to mix well. Season with additional salt to taste.
  • Cover and refrigerate until serving time. Serve over chicken.

Tips:

  • Choose the right chicken breasts: Look for boneless, skinless chicken breasts that are about the same size so they cook evenly.
  • Use a large pot: You'll need a pot that's large enough to hold the chicken breasts and the poaching liquid.
  • Don't boil the chicken: The poaching liquid should be simmering, not boiling. Boiling will toughen the chicken.
  • Use a thermometer: The best way to tell if the chicken is cooked through is to use a meat thermometer. Insert the thermometer into the thickest part of the chicken breast. The chicken is done when it reaches an internal temperature of 165 degrees Fahrenheit.
  • Make the dill pickle sauce ahead of time: The sauce can be made up to 3 days ahead of time and stored in the refrigerator.
  • Serve the chicken breasts warm or cold: The chicken breasts can be served warm with the dill pickle sauce, or they can be chilled and served cold.

Conclusion:

Poached chicken breasts are a healthy and delicious meal that can be enjoyed in many different ways. They are perfect for salads, sandwiches, wraps, and more. The dill pickle sauce is a great way to add flavor and tang to the chicken. Whether you serve it warm or cold, this dish is sure to be a hit!
