Crispy Chicken With Broccoli Recipes

CRISPY CHILLI CHICKEN WITH BROCCOLI

Steps:

• Heat the oil in a wok or large frying. Mix the salt and pepper with the cornflour and toss the chicken strips in the cornflour until completely coated.
• When the oil is hot, tip the chicken in and fry until golden brown and crispy. You may need to do this in two batches. Using a slotted spoon, remove the chicken from the pan and place in a bowl lined with kitchen roll to soak up excess fat.
• There should still be left some oil in the pan at this point. You need about 1 tbsp, so carefully discard some if you have more than that.
• Take the wok off the heat or turn it down very low and add in the ginger and garlic (the garlic will burn if you have it on a high heat), give it a stir for 30 seconds and then add the broccoli and chopped chilli to the pan.
• Fry for a 2-3 minutes, so it's warmed through but still crisp. Then remove the broccoli from the wok.
• Mix the lime juice, soy sauce and sugar in a small bowl, then pour onto the wok.
• Turn up the heat and let it bubble for a couple of minutes until the sauce starts to reduce and thicken (see note below if using tamari).
• Add the chicken and broccoli back in, give it a stir and heat through for 1 minute, then serve with boiled rice. Garnish with the spring onions and more chopped chillies.

CRISPY CHICKEN-AND-BROCCOLI SALAD

Steps:

• Whisk together honey, vinegar, mustard, salt, and pepper in a large bowl until blended and smooth. Drizzle in oil, whisking until emulsified, 30 seconds. Stir in broccoli, grapes, cheese, almonds, and onion. Cover; chill at least 2 hours or up to overnight. Stir in chicken before serving.

CRISPY CHICKEN WITH ROASTED BROCCOLI

Steps:

• Position racks in the upper and lower thirds of the oven; preheat to 450 degrees F. Whisk the eggs, mustard, garlic, thyme, 1/2 teaspoon salt and a few grinds of pepper in a large bowl. Add the chicken and toss. Let sit 10 minutes.
• Toss the broccoli, tomatoes, olive oil, 1/2 teaspoon salt and a few grinds of pepper on a rimmed baking sheet. Roast on the upper oven rack until the broccoli is tender and browned and the tomatoes burst, about 25 minutes.
• Meanwhile, whisk the panko, cornstarch and 1/2 teaspoon salt in a shallow bowl. Remove the chicken from the marinade, letting the excess drip off, and dip in the panko mixture to coat completely.
• Heat about 1/4 inch of olive oil in a large ovenproof skillet over medium-high heat. Add the chicken and cook until golden brown, about 4 minutes per side. Transfer the skillet to the bottom oven rack; bake until the chicken is cooked through, about 2 minutes. Serve with the vegetables and rice. Photograph by Antonis Achilleos

CRISPY CHICKEN BROCCOLI RICE CASSEROLE

Steps:

• Cook vegetables- chop into small bite size pieces and then set aside.
• Clean and rinse chicken breasts; chop into small pieces and cook in a heated frying pan with the EVOO, salt and pepper, garlic and onion.
• In a blender, combine 1/2 of the bag of shredded cheese, mushroom soup once blended combine in a large mixing bowl with the veggies and the chicken once it is nearly cooked (if its not all the way done that's okay because you will be cooking it in the oven for 30 minutes and you don't want the chickent to be too tough)
• Add cooked rice last to your 9x11 pan- again if the rice is a bit under done it will be okay because you have to bake this once it is mixed together for about 30 minutes at 350 degrees- you don't want it to get mushy.
• In another small bowl combine hot melted butter and croutons until the croutons are basically reduced to buttery bread crumbs- I had to use a hard spoon to mash them down in order to get them to the right consistency. Add the remaining cheese to the buttery crushed croutons.
• Once you put the complete mixture in the 9x11 pan sprinkle the crouton cheese mix on top of the casserole and bake at 350 for about 30 minutes.
• Top should be golden brown and crispy.
