CHICKEN AND BLACK BEAN CASSEROLE



Chicken and Black Bean Casserole image

This can use leftover chicken or chicken breasts. I usually make it the day after we have roast chicken. The recipe calls for baking, but the ingredients can also be added to a slow cooker and cooked on Low for 7 hours. We serve this with cheese, tortilla chips, sour cream, salsa, black olives, and guacamole.

Provided by Lavina

Categories     Dinner

Time 30m

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 27

500 grams / 1.1 pounds Chicken Thighs (or Breasts), boneless, skinless - cleaned and pat-dried, excess fat trimmed, and cut into bite-sized pieces
1 TBLS Low Sodium Light Soy Sauce
1 TBLS Shao Xing Rice Wine
1 TBLS Corn Starch
1 TSP Sesame Oil
2 TSP Corn Starch
2 - 3 TSP freshly cracked Black Pepper, more or less to taste
1 TSP White Sugar
½ - 1 TSP Chili Oil (optional)
1 TSP Sesame Oil
1 TBLS Low Sodium Light Soy Sauce
1 TBLS Shao Xing Rice Wine
2 TBLS Oyster Sauce
2 TBLS Spicy Black Bean Sauce (I used Lee Kum Kee brand, but any store-bought black bean sauce will work)
1 TBLS Gochujang
1-2 TSP Sriracha Sauce, to taste
½ cup Water
3.5 TBLS Peanut Oil (or any other neutral flavored cooking oil with a high smoke point)
½ medium Yellow Onion - diced
2 large Spring Onion - cut into 1.5-inch pieces, white and green parts separated
½ medium Red Bell Pepper - deseeded, diced
½ medium Yellow Bell Pepper - deseeded, diced
10 Garlic cloves - minced
2 TBLS minced Ginger
4-12 fresh Red Chilies (I used Bird's Eye, but Holland or any other small hot chilies will work), to taste - finely chopped
10-12 Chinese Dried Red Chilies (I used Yunnan Dried Red Chilies)
To Serve: Steamed rice, chopped spring onion

Steps:

  • Clean and pat-dry the chicken thighs and trim off any excess fat. Cut into bite-sized pieces and add to medium sized bowl, followed by the low sodium light soy sauce, Shao Xing rice wine, corn starch, and sesame oil. Mix well to combine, then set aside.
  • Combine the corn starch, freshly cracked black pepper, white sugar, chili oil (if using), sesame oil, low sodium light soy sauce, Shao Xing rice wine, oyster sauce, spicy black bean sauce, gochujang, sriracha, and water in a small measuring cup (for easier pouring) or bowl. Mix well until thoroughly combined, then set aside.
  • Chop the yellow onion, spring onions (be sure to separate the white and green parts, red and yellow bell peppers, garlic, ginger, and fresh red chilies as indicated in the 'Ingredients' section. Destem the dried red chilies and set aside.
  • Heat 1 tablespoon of peanut oil in a large wok or heavy bottomed deep frying pan over medium heat. Once hot, add the dried red chilies and sauté for 30-40 seconds, until they start to crisp up and darken slightly. Using a slotted spoon, transfer to a paper towel lined plate to drain. Then transfer to a small bowl and set aside. (Pro-tip: For a spicier dish, snip the chilies using kitchen shears into 2-3 pieces each. The seeds that become exposed will add more heat into the stir-fry.)
  • Add another tablespoon of oil to the wok and heat over medium-high heat. Once hot, add the marinated chicken and immediately spread out the pieces in the wok. Allow to sear for 1 minute without touching, then stir-fry for another minute until the chicken has cooked through. Using a slotted spoon, transfer to a clean bowl. Wipe out the wok with a paper towel and set back on the stovetop. (Note: Depending on your wok size, you many need to cook the chicken in two batches in order to not overcrowd the wok. Overcrowding will result in the chicken steaming and becoming mushy.)
  • Heat the remainder 1.5 tablespoons of oil in the wok over medium-high heat. Once hot, add the yellow onion, spring onion white parts and stir-fry for a 30-40 seconds until slightly softened. Add the garlic, ginger, and fresh red chilies and stir-fry for 30 seconds until fragrant.
  • Add the red and yellow bell peppers and the dried red chilies, toss to combine.
  • Add the chicken along with any juices in the bowl, and pour the stir-fry sauce on top. Stir-fry continuously for 1-2 minutes, until everything is well coated in the sauce it starts to thicken.
  • Stir in the spring onion green parts, then switch off the heat.
  • Transfer to a serving bowl/dish and garnish with more chopped spring onion. Serve immediately with warm steamed rice.

Provided by Rachael Ray : Food Network

Categories     main-dish

Time 30m

Yield 4 to 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 17

2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil, 2 turns of the pan
3/4 pound bulk Italian hot sausage
3/4 pound, 1 package, andouille sausage, cut into 1-inch lengths on an angle
1 1/2 pounds boneless, skinless chicken thighs, cut into large chunks
Salt and freshly ground black pepper
1 large onion, quartered and thinly sliced
2 carrots, shredded
3 to 4 ribs celery from the heart, thinly sliced
1 fresh bay leaf
2 (15-ounce) cans white cannellini beans
5 to 6 fresh sage leaves, thinly sliced
1 cup dry white wine
2 cups chicken stock
1/2 loaf baguette
3 tablespoons butter, melted
A handful fresh parsley sprigs, left whole
3 to 4 sprigs fresh thyme, left whole

Steps:

  • Heat a Dutch oven over medium-high heat with extra-virgin olive oil. Crumble the Italian sausage into large pieces, add to Dutch oven and begin to brown, about 2 to 3 minutes. Add the andouille and crisp at edges, 2 to 3 minutes. Remove browned sausages to a paper towel lined plate and add chicken, season with salt and pepper. Lightly brown chicken a couple of minutes on each side then add veggies and bay leaf, add more salt and pepper and cook 7 to 8 minutes more to soften veggies. Add sausages back to the pan along with the beans and sage. Deglaze with wine and stir in the stock.

Cover the sausage and chicken with bread and set in oven to brown 2 to 3 minutes. Serve directly from the pot. Keep an eye out for that bay leaf and sprigs!

CHEESY, SPICY BLACK BEAN BAKE



Cheesy, Spicy Black Bean Bake image

Whether or not you've fallen for this cheesy white-bean tomato bake, we'd like you to meet its bolder counterpart, smoky and spiced, with lots of melty cheese. Black beans shine in a deep-red mixture of fried garlic, caramelized tomato paste, smoked paprika and cumin. The whole skillet gets coated in a generous sprinkling of sharp Cheddar or Manchego cheese, then baked until melted. The final result is what you hope for from a really good chili or stew, but in a lot less time. For a spicier rendition, add a pinch of cayenne with the paprika, or douse the final skillet with hot sauce. Serve with tortillas, tortilla chips, rice, a baked potato or fried eggs.

Categories     dinner, easy, weekday, beans, main course

Time 15m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 10

3 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
5 garlic cloves, peeled and sliced
1/4 cup tomato paste
1 1/2 teaspoons smoked paprika
1/4 teaspoon red-pepper flakes
1 teaspoon ground cumin
2 (14-ounce) cans black beans, drained and rinsed
1/2 cup boiling water
Kosher salt and black pepper
1 1/2 cups grated Cheddar or Manchego cheese (from about a 6-ounce block)

Steps:

  • Heat the oven to 475 degrees. In a 10-inch ovenproof skillet, heat the olive oil over medium-high. Fry the garlic until lightly golden, about 1 minute. Stir in the tomato paste, paprika, red-pepper flakes and cumin (be careful of splattering), and fry for 30 seconds, reducing the heat as needed to prevent the garlic from burning.
  • Add the beans, water and generous pinches of salt and pepper, and stir to combine. Sprinkle the cheese evenly over the top then bake until the cheese has melted, 5 to 10 minutes. If the top is not as browned as you'd like, run the skillet under the broiler for 1 or 2 minutes. Serve immediately.

⅔ cup brown rice
1 cup vegetable broth (Can also use chicken broth)
1 Tablespoon olive oil

½ cup sliced mushrooms
½ teaspoon cumin
salt (to taste)
ground cayenne pepper (to taste)
1 (15oz) can black beans (drained and rinsed)
1 (4oz) can green chilies (drained)
1-2 cups shredded cheddar cheese (Monterey Jack or Swiss would work too)

Steps:

  • Mix the rice and vegetable broth in a pot, and bring to a boil. Reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer 45 minutes, or until rice is tender.
  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Lightly grease a large 9×13? casserole dish.
