Chicken over Red Beans and Rice
One 10.75-ounce can chicken broth
2 tablespoons lemon juice
1/4 teaspoon ground cumin
1/4 teaspoon white pepper
1/4 teaspoon salt
2 whole chicken breasts, split, skinned and deboned
One 15-ounce can dark kidney beans, drained, reserving juice
1/2 small onion, chopped
1 tablespoon garlic, chopped
1/4 cup green chili peppers
6 cups fluffy rice, cooked
In a shallow dish, mix chicken broth, lemon juice, cumin, pepper and salt. Remove any visible fat from chicken and place in marinade for thirty minutes in refrigerator.
Meanwhile, put one half of beans in a food processor with onion, and garlic. Process with knife blade until beans are mashed well.
Put mixture in a sauce pan with whole bean and green chiles. Add enough marinade to reserved bean juice to make 1 cup of liquid; stir into bean mixture.
Heat thoroughly on low heat for about 15 minutes. Drain chicken well.
In a Teflon pan sprayed well with vegetable cooking spray, brown chicken on both sides, add bean mixture, cover and simmer 15 minutes. Serve over riceDoes anyone have a simple chicken recipe to go with red beans and rice?
Cut the chicken into small cubes or strips and put it in a pan with a little olive oil or canola oil and brown the chicken. You'll have to keep stirring and turning it. Leave it there until all the pieces have cooked clear through. Then either put it on top of your red beans and rice or stir it into the red beans and rice. Good stuff. Try it with sausage sometime, too.
If you have a gril, gril the chicken and then serve it with your Red Beans and Rice. I had Red Beans and rice over the weekend. It was delicous.
Cajun Chicken Wings
1 (5 lb) bag chicken wings
1 tablespoon cayenne
2 tablespoons paprika
2 tablespoons garlic powder
1 tablespoon dried oregano
1 tablespoon dried thyme
1 tablespoon onion powder
1 tablespoon salt
1/2 teaspoon white pepper
1/2 teaspoon fresh ground black pepper
1/4 cup vegetable oil
Rinse chicken and pat dry. In food processor or blender, combine all remaining ingredients, EXCEPT oil. Process until well blended. With machine on, slowly pour in oil and process until a thick paste forms. In a large bowl, combine wings and paste. Toss until wings are well coated. Cover and refrigerate over night. Broil or grill wings until nicely browned outside and cooked through.
***ENJOY!!!
Take the chicken and slice it up in to strips. Place them in a skillet and cook until browned. Once done, place in rice mixture about half way through cookin time and voila! Bon appetite!
In reality, the beans are your protein. You don't 'need' chicken.
But, you could saute some chicken on top of the stove with whatever salad dressing you have on hand. Italian is especially good, but even ranch would work.
oh, that's a toughy. i've always had red beans %26amp; rice with cut up polish sausage. hmmm, i guess you could fry the chicken, make corn bread, and have the red beans %26amp; rice as a side dish rather than a main course. you could also just sub the sausage for chicken and do the recipe the same way.
