Time 40m

Yield 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 11

6 ripe tomatoes (2 1/2 to 3-inches in diameter)
1 1/2 cups fresh white bread crumbs (5 slices, crusts removed)
1/4 cup minced scallions, white and green parts (2 scallions)
1/4 cup minced fresh basil leaves
2 tablespoons minced fresh flat-leaf parsley
2 teaspoons minced garlic (2 cloves)
1/2 teaspoon fresh thyme leaves
Kosher salt
Freshly ground black pepper
1/2 cup grated Gruyere cheese
Good olive oil

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.

  • In a bowl, combine the bread crumbs, scallions, basil, parsley, garlic, thyme, and 1 teaspoon salt. Sprinkle the tomato halves generously with salt and pepper. With your hands, fill the cavities and cover the tops of the tomatoes with the bread crumb mixture. Bake the tomatoes for 15 minutes, or until they're tender. Sprinkle with the cheese, drizzle with olive oil, and bake for 30 seconds more. Serve hot or at room temperature.

Roast potatoes, switching position of pans halfway through roasting, until tender, about 16 minutes total.

Serve warm or at room temperature.

PROVENçAL TOMATO AND BASIL SOUP



Provençal Tomato and Basil Soup image

I learned to make this soup years ago when I lived in France. If there are no fresh tomatoes at hand, use canned. The soup is delicious and silky if you thicken it with tapioca.

Provided by Martha Rose Shulman

Categories     weekday, appetizer

Time 1h

Yield Serves four

Number Of Ingredients 13

1 tablespoon extra virgin olive oil
1 small onion, chopped
4 to 6 garlic cloves (to taste), minced
Salt to taste
2 pounds tomatoes, cored and diced, or 1 28-ounce can chopped tomatoes with juice
Pinch of sugar
2 large sprigs basil, or about 16 leaves, plus 2 tablespoons slivered basil for garnish
1 quart water
1 Parmesan rind (optional)
Freshly ground pepper to taste
1/4 cup rice or tapioca
Garlic croutons (thin slices of baguette, lightly toasted and rubbed with a cut garlic clove)
Grated or shaved Parmesan

Steps:

  • Heat the oil over medium heat in a large, heavy soup pot or Dutch oven. Add the onion. Cook, stirring often, until tender, about five minutes. Stir in half the garlic and a generous pinch of salt. Cook, stirring, until fragrant, about 30 seconds to a minute. Add the tomatoes, sugar, basil sprigs or leaves and remaining garlic. Cook, stirring often, until the tomatoes have cooked down and smell fragrant, 15 to 20 minutes.
  • Add the water, Parmesan rind and salt to taste. Bring to a simmer, cover and reduce the heat to low. Simmer 15 minutes. Add the tapioca or rice, and simmer for another 15 minutes until the tapioca is tender and the soup fragrant. Remove the basil sprigs and Parmesan rind. Puree in a blender in small batches, taking care to place a towel over the top of the blender and hold it down tightly. If you used fresh unpeeled tomatoes and want a silkier soup, put through a strainer, using a spatula or the back of a ladle to push the soup through. Return to the pot, add pepper to taste and adjust salt. Serve garnished with garlic croutons and/or Parmesan, if desired, and slivered basil leaves. If serving cold, refrigerate until chilled.

PROVENçAL CHICKEN & POTATO STEW



Provençal Chicken & Potato Stew image

Olive oil, garlic and herbs are the cornerstones of Provençal cuisine, rich in both French and Italian influences. This rustic stew has it all (including a dash of classic Herbes de Provence). Originally from Blue Apron but modified for my taste.

Provided by danglin34

Categories     Stew

Time 30m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 8

1 lb boneless skinless chicken thighs
3/4 lb yukon gold potato
1 cup chopped swiss chard
2 tablespoons tomato paste
1 tablespoon red wine vinegar
5 garlic cloves
2 teaspoons olive oil
2 medium zucchini

Steps:

  • Wash and dry the fresh produce. Small dice the potatoes. Separate the chard leaves and stems; roughly chop the leaves and thinly slice the stems. Peel and mince the garlic. Chop the chicken into bite size pieces.
  • Season the chopped chicken with salt and pepper; toss to coat. In a large, high-sided pan (or pot), heat 2 teaspoons of olive oil on medium-high until hot. Add the seasoned chicken and cook, stirring occasionally, 4 to 6 minutes, or until browned. Add the tomato paste; season with salt and pepper. Cook, stirring occasionally, 2 to 3 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through and the tomato paste is dark red.
  • Add the potatoes, zucchini, chard stems and ¾ of the garlic to the pan of chicken; season with salt and pepper. Cook, stirring occasionally, 2 to 3 minutes, or until slightly tender and fragrant. Add Herbes de Provence to taste (I usually use a tablespoon or more). Cook, stirring frequently, 30 seconds to 1 minute, or until thoroughly combined and fragrant.
  • Add the chard leaves, the vinegar and 2 cups of water to the pan of chicken and vegetables, scraping up any browned bits from the bottom of the pan. Heat to boiling on high. Once boiling, reduce the heat to medium-high and simmer, stirring occasionally, 8 to 10 minutes, or until the potatoes are tender when pierced with a fork and the liquid has reduced in volume by about half. Remove from heat and season with salt and pepper to taste.
  • If you want a richer sauce feel free to make an easy aioli. In a medium bowl, combine 2 tbsp mayonnaise, a clove or so of fresh garlic paste and 1/2 tbsp of red wine vinegar; season with salt and pepper to taste.

Eggplant Potato Tomato Stew Recipe by Tasty image

Here's what you need: medium yukon potatoes, medium eggplants, red bell peppers, olive oil, salt, pepper, medium yellow onion, tomato paste, garlic, smoked paprika, chickpeas, medium beefsteak tomatoes, low sodium vegetable broth, fresh parsley

Provided by Rachel Gaewski

Categories     Dinner

Yield 5 servings

Number Of Ingredients 14

4 medium yukon potatoes
2 medium eggplants, chopped
2 red bell peppers, seeded and chopped
5 tablespoons olive oil, divided
1 teaspoon salt, plus more to taste, divided
¾ teaspoon pepper, plus more to taste, divided
1 medium yellow onion, diced
1 tablespoon tomato paste
3 cloves garlic, minced
1 teaspoon smoked paprika
15 oz chickpeas, 1 can, drained and rinsed
3 medium beefsteak tomatoes, diced
1 ½ cups low sodium vegetable broth
fresh parsley, for serving

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 400ºF (200ºC).
  • With a sharp knife, score a ring around each potato, just deep enough to break the skin. Place the potatoes in a medium pot of cold water. Bring to a boil and cook for about 8 minutes, until about halfway cooked.
  • Drain the potatoes, and rinse with cold water. Peel off the skin.
  • Cut the potatoes into ½-inch (1 cm) pieces and set aside.
  • Divide the eggplant and bell peppers between 2 baking sheets and spread in an even layer. Drizzle with 4 tablespoons of olive oil, and season with salt and pepper to taste. Toss with your hands to coat.
  • Bake for 25 minutes, flipping halfway through.
  • Heat the remaining tablespoon of olive oil in a large pot over medium heat. Once the oil begins to shimmer, add the onion and cook for 3-4 minutes, until semi-translucent.
  • Add the tomato paste and stir until well distributed, then add the garlic, paprika, 1 teaspoon salt, and ¾ teaspoon pepper, and cook for another 2-3 minutes, until fragrant.
  • Add the potatoes, chickpeas, and tomatoes, and stir to incorporate.
  • Stir in the vegetable broth and cover. Reduce the heat to low and cook for 20 minutes, until the potatoes are tender.
  • Add the roasted eggplant and bell pepper, and stir to combine. Cook for another 5-10 minutes, until the tomatoes have mostly broken down.
  • Ladle into bowls, garnish with parsley, and serve. Or, transfer the stew to resealable containers and store in the fridge for up to 5 days or freezer for up to 3 months.
  • Enjoy!
