Spicy Voodoo Chicken Recipes

VOODOO CHICKEN PENNE

Steps:

• Cook pasta until all dente.
• Melt butter; add onion and garlic; cook 1 minute; add Cajun seasoning and cook 1 minute.
• Stir in tomatoes and simmer, uncovered, until reduced by half; add cream and simmer until reduced by half; add drained pasta; season with salt and pepper to taste.
• To prepare Cajun chicken topping for pasta: brush chicken breasts lightly with oil, then generously season with Cajun seasoning mix; grilled until cooked, then slice and arrange on top of pasta.

VOODOO CHILD CHICKEN

Steps:

• Saute chicken pieces in a skillet with butter and garlic until chicken and garlic are nicely browned.
• In the meantime, preheat oven to 350 degrees F and prepare the voodoo rub: Combine black pepper, paprika, thyme, oregano, parsley, garlic powder, crushed bay leaf, crushed dried chile, salt, Tabasco, brown sugar and tomato paste in a small bowl.
• Remove chicken from skillet and coat with voodoo rub (tomato paste mixture).
• Test your heat tolerance first!
• Bake covered at 350 degrees for 45 minutes to an hour (depending on which chicken pieces you're using).
• Alternatively, after sauteeing with garlic, this chicken can be grilled with the voodoo rub.
• I like to serve with plain white rice spiked with sliced scallions.
• Oh, and remember not to rub your eyes after handling that chile- or wear gloves while crushing!

SPICY CHICKEN VINDALOO

Steps:

• Mix your first 11 ingredients and 1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper in processor until a smooth paste forms. Heat your canola oil in a mid sized non-stick pot over medium-high heat. Add your paste from your processor and cook until just shy of brown, stirring for about 4 minutes. Add your cubed chicken and cubed red potatoes; simmer about 6 minutes.
• Add you chicken broth and raise it to a boil. Reduce your heat to medium-low; cover and let cook until potatoes are softened, stir every so often, this should take about about 15 - 20 minutes.
• Uncover your pan and saute until your cubed chicken is completely cooked, about 5-7 minutes. Serve over basmati rice, raita or naan, and enjoy your spicy chicken vindaloo.
