Help! I need an easy, savoury chicken dinner idea.?

Question

I am bored, bored, bored, with pork chops/rice/corn for dinner. Since I really have no kitchen skills beyond the most simple, does anyone have a really great chicken recipe? Failing that, a really great marinade for steak?

Answer 1

Chicken Paprikash

2lb boneless, skinless chicken breasts, cut into one inch dice.
2 medium onions, halved and sliced thinly
4Tbs butter
14C paprika, or more to taste*
2-3C chicken broth
16 oz sour cream
1/2C flour
*If you can get smoked paprika, substitute 1-2Tbs of that for 1-2Tbs of regular paprika

Over medium heat, melt the butter and add the onions, cooking them 3-4 minutes, taking care not to brown them.

Raise heat to medium high and add the chicken. Cook the chicken until not pink remains on the outside.

Add the paprika and stir, coating all the chicken and onions.

Add the broth, raise heat to high. Cook until chicken is done throughout.

Mix the flour and sour cream add to the mix, stirring and cooking until the sauce is thickened and creamy.

Serve over rice, noodles or kasha.

Here's an easy recipe inspired by one from Greece:
- Take whatever chicken pieces you have (if you want to brown them first for looks, go ahead - if it's just my family, I never do...) and put them in a casserole dish.
- Chop up a bunch of potatoes into cubes (the size of the potato cubes will depend on the type of chicken pieces you use - if you use large, bone in pieces, keep the potatoes a bit larger so they'll cook more slowly)
- Take a whole bunch of fresh garlic - it has to be fresh and there has to lots of it - like 1 whole head of garlic (adjust as needed) - peel the garlic cloves but don't chop them
- Toss the garlic and the potatoes together on top of and around the chicken pieces
- Now hit this with a lot of dried oregano - I'm not talking one or two teaspoons, I mean lots
- Drizzle some olive oil and chicken broth into the casserole dish - there should be a substantial amount of liquid in the dish - about halfway up the sides - then give the top a little more oregano
- Bake at 350 until done - timing depends on the type of chicken - I would check it after 45 minutes, just use an instant read thermometre on the chicken, or piece it with a fork to make sure the juice runs clear
- When it's ready, take it out and squeeze a bit of lemon over top
Serve it with a big green salad. You can also add vegetables to the caserole, but veggies like carrots or onions that turn sweet when you cook them don't work because the garlic turns sweet when baked. Okra works well if you like it. You will figure out how you like it after cooking it a few times (eg less garlic, more oregano, less liquid, more lemon). Overall a very flavorful, easy, one dish meal.
All the best!

Chicken Casserole. Very easy. Put one cup of long grain rice in bottom of greased casserole dish. Put 1/2 cup of chopped onions, 1/2 cup of chopped celery on top of rice, salt and pepper, put aside. In a separate bowl, mix 1 can of mushroom soup and 3/4 cup of mayo. Slowly add 1 and 1/4 cups of water, and continue mixing until well blended. Add half of the mixture to the rice, celery, and onions. Do not stir. Place chicken on top and pour the rest of mixture on top of chicken. Cook in the oven at 350 degrees for one hour or until chicken is done. This is a family favorite. Hope you like it!

Answer 5

Yesterday I seared some boneless chicken in a large skillet, then added canned tomatoes (crushed and diced), some garlic, a little olive oil, and some basil. I let it simmer until the chicken was cooked, then served it with pasta. It's not terribly original, but it was really good and easy to make.

If you want to eat truly healthy, lose body fat consistently, normalize your blood pressure, cholesterol levels, prevent cancer, and even boost your brain health and energy levels, you may have heard all over the news that the Paleo Diet has been found to be one of the best methods of achieving all of these benefits compared to any other popular "fad" diets out there. Go here https://bitly.im/aNEB7

The truth is that the Paleo Diet will never be considered a fad because it's just simply the way that humans evolved to eat over approximately 2 million years. And eating in a similar fashion to our ancestors has been proven time and time again to offer amazing health benefits, including prevention of most diseases of civilization such as cancer, heart disease, alzheimers, and other chronic conditions that are mostly caused by poor diet and lifestyle. One of the biggest misunderstandings about the Paleo Diet is that it's a meat-eating diet, or a super low-carb diet. This is not true

Answer 8

Lemony Chicken Chunks

• 3-4 boneless skinless chicken breasts, cubed
• 1/4 cup flour
• 3 cloves garlic, minced
• 1/4 cup olive olive oil
• Salt and pepper to taste
• 1/4 cup lemon juice

Heat olive oil in skillet over medium heat. Combine salt, pepper and flour. Add chicken and coat with flour mixture. Cook in olive oil until chicken is fully cooked and lightly browned. Add garlic and cook another 1-2 minutes, then add lemon juice and cook 1 minute longer. Serve with rice pilaf or your favorite rice.

Notes:
Very simple and very good. You can adjust lemon juice to your taste. I enjoy the sour taste. Also very good with fresh chopped mint.
