Best 10 Red Pepper Tomato And Chicken Pilaf Recipes

RED PEPPER CHICKEN PILAF

Steps:

• In a large skillet over medium high heat, melt the butter and add the cooking oil. Sautee the peppers until they are tender, about 10 minutes. After about the first 8 minutes, add the garlic in with the peppers. Transfer the drained peppers and garlic to a bowl. Reserve remaining oil in the skillet.
• Pour the flour into a lunch-sized paper bag. Pat each chicken breast dry and, one at a time, shake the breasts in the bag to coat each with flour. Place the chicken breasts into the skillet and brown them on both sides, about 4 minutes per side.
• Remove the chicken from the skillet and put the peppers back in, adding the broth and the wine. Deglaze any chicken bits with your spatula. Turn the heat to medium high and reduce the liquid to a sauce texture.
• Return the chicken to the skillet and cook for about 5 more minutes over medium heat. Season with the salt and pepper.
• Pour the warmed rice on a large platter, pour the chicken and peppers over it, and garnish with the chopped parsley. Serve family style.

TOMATO AND COCONUT CHICKEN OVER SPICED RICE PILAF

Steps:

• For the rice: Soak the rice in 4 cups of cold water for 30 minutes.
• For the chicken: Meanwhile, in a large skillet, heat the oil over medium-high heat. Arrange the chicken on a baking sheet in a single layer. Season all sides of the chicken with salt. When the oil begins to smoke lightly, use a pair of metal tongs to carefully add the pieces, skin-side down, to the oil. Do not crowd the skillet. Lower the heat to medium and cook until the skin is browned, 5 to 8 minutes. Flip the chicken and brown the other side, another 5 to 8 minutes. Transfer the chicken pieces to a clean baking sheet and set aside.
• In the same skillet, add the garlic and onions. Add the red pepper flakes and some salt and cook, stirring frequently, until the garlic and onions turn light brown, 5 to 8 minutes. Add the coconut milk, tomatoes and bay leaves and bring to a simmer. Arrange the chicken pieces skin-side up in a single layer in the sauce. Pour any juices into the sauce as well. Lower the heat and simmer until the chicken is cooked through, 30 to 35 minutes. Discard the bay leaves. Taste for seasoning. Keep warm.
• To cook the rice: While the chicken is cooking, heat the oven to 250 degrees F.
• On a baking sheet, combine the cumin, fennel, cayenne and cinnamon stick. Lightly toast the spices in the oven, 1 to 2 minutes. Set aside.
• Heat a large Dutch oven over medium heat and add the butter and onion. Season with salt and cook until the onion is translucent but not browned, 5 to 8 minutes. Stir in the spices. Drain the rice, reserving the soaking water. Stir in the rice and cook until you hear it crackling, 1 to 2 minutes. Gently stir in the reserved water. Season with salt and bring to a simmer over medium heat. Cover and cook until the water has been absorbed and the rice is fluffy, about 15 minutes. Remove from the heat and allow the rice to rest for 5 to 10 minutes before "forking" it gently onto plates. Spoon the chicken and sauce over the rice and serve.

BULGUR PILAF WITH RED PEPPERS AND TOMATOES

Steps:

• Place the bulgur in a fine sieve and shake to remove any dust. Place in a large bowl and cover with cold water. Let stand 30 minutes.
• Meanwhile, place the bell and chili peppers in a food processor with the water, 1/4 teaspoon of the salt and the sugar. Process until pureed. Transfer to a saucepan and cook over medium heat, stirring often, until reduced to a jam-like consistency, about 20 minutes. Set aside.
• Cut the tomatoes in half and squeeze gently to remove the seeds. Using the large holes of a hand grater, grate the tomato halves with the cut side facing the grater. (You should be left with just the tomato skin in your hand; discard.)
• Drain the bulgur and return it to the bowl. Add the red-pepper paste, the tomato pulp, the remaining teaspoon salt, the scallions, cucumber, parsley, lemon juice, pomegranate molasses, olive oil and paprika. Stir to mix well.

• Heat the oil in a skillet and add the chicken pieces. Cook over medium-high heat until golden brown on one side, about 2 minutes. Turn the chicken pieces and brown for about 1 minute. Add the garlic, onion and red pepper. Cook and stir briefly until the vegetables are wilted. Add the vinegar, chicken broth, tomatoes, olives, bay leaf and 4 sprigs of the thyme. Cover tightly, lower heat and cook, simmering for 15 minutes.
• Uncover and cook 5 minutes more. Remove the bay leaf and thyme sprigs. Serve immediately with the remaining thyme sprigs for garnish.

Stir all together and simmer over low heat, stirring, until all liquid is absorbed and rice is separate and fluffy.
