Spicy Chicken With Cabbage Recipes

SPICY CAJUN CABBAGE

Steps:

• Combine chili powder, thyme, smoked paprika, oregano, cayenne pepper, cumin, onion powder, and salt in a bowl.
• Melt butter in a large skillet over medium heat; cook and stir onion in hot butter until translucent, about 5 minutes. Add garlic and cook until soft, about 2 minutes; stir shredded cabbage into onion and garlic. Cook and stir cabbage mixture until cabbage starts to soften, about 5 more minutes.
• Stir spices into cabbage mixture and cook, stirring often, until spices are evenly mixed in and cabbage is tender, 3 more minutes.

ONE-PAN CHICKEN AND CABBAGE (MEAL-PREP)

Steps:

• In a large pot or Dutch oven, add olive oil and heat over medium high heat for 1 minute. Add the chicken and sprinkle with paprika, oregano, salt and black pepper. Cook for about 5-7 minutes, or until chicken is fully cooked. Set it aside.
• Add mushroom and cook for 3 minutes and using a wooden spoon scrape off any brown bits that may be stuck to the bottom of your skillet. Set aside.
• In the same pot, add 1 tablespoon of olive oil, onions and bell pepper. Sauté for 3-5 minutes, or until it gets brown.
• Add the cabbage, garlic powder, paprika, salt and black pepper and chicken broth. Mix everything together. Reduce heat to medium low and cover with a lid. Cook for about 10-15 minutes, stirring occasionally.
• Add tomato sauce to the pan. Return chicken to the pan and mix all together to combine. Cook for 2 more minutes. Garnish with fresh chopped parsley. Serve immediately.

SPICY STIR-FRIED CABBAGE

Steps:

• Combine the garlic, ginger, red pepper flakes and star anise in a small bowl. Combine the soy sauce and wine or sherry in another small bowl.
• Heat a 14-inch flat-bottomed wok or a 12-inch skillet over high heat until a drop of water evaporates within a second or two when added to the pan. Swirl in the oil by adding it to the sides of the pan and tilting it back and forth. Add the garlic, ginger, pepper flakes and star anise. Stir-fry for a few seconds, just until fragrant, then add the cabbage and carrots. Stir-fry for one to two minutes until the cabbage begins to wilt, then add the salt and wine/soy sauce mixture. Cover and cook over high heat for one minute until just wilted. Uncover and stir-fry for another 30 seconds, then stir in the chives or cilantro and remove from the heat. The cabbage should be crisp-tender. Serve with rice or noodles.

THAI CHICKEN CABBAGE SOUP

Steps:

• Place chicken breasts and broth in to a stockpot or Dutch oven. Bring to a boil and let simmer for about 20 minutes, or until chicken is cooked through. Remove the chicken from the broth and set aside to cool.
• Put the leeks and carrots into the pot and simmer them for 10 minutes, or until tender. Shred the cooled chicken in to bite sized pieces and return it to the pot. Add the cabbage and egg noodles and cook another 5 minutes or until the noodles are soft. The soup should be thick like a stew. Serve hot and flavor to taste with Thai chili sauce.
