Grilled Chicken Blt With Green Goddess Sauce Food

JACQUI MALOUF GRANDMA GOODWITCH'S GREEN GODDESS

Steps:

• Strain off pineapple juice, reserve juice and place pineapple in a large bowl. Set aside. In a medium bowl add Jell-O powder, 2 cups boiling water and stir until dissolved. Add 1 cup cold water and 1 cup reserved pineapple juice. Add cider vinegar. Let pre-set in the freezer for a few minutes (only until it sticks to the sides). In an electric mixer combine cream cheese and crushed pineapple. Add jello mixture, mix until smooth. In a separate bowl whip cream until it holds soft peaks. Gently fold cream into jello. Transfer to a pretty bowl that is not too deep. Refrigerate for at least 2 hours or until set.;

GREEN GODDESS CHICKEN SALAD SANDWICH

Steps:

• For the dressing: Puree the sour cream, mayonnaise, lemon juice, parsley, tarragon, garlic salt and scallions in a blender until very smooth. Set aside.
• For the sandwich: Add the dressing to a medium bowl with the chicken, celery and red onion. Mix until well combined. At this point you can make sandwiches or refrigerate until you are ready to serve. If you are serving sandwiches right away, place a scoop of chicken salad on top of a piece of bread. Top with the tomato slices and season with salt and pepper. Top with the cucumber slices, a mound of sprouts, the bacon and a second slice of bread. Repeat to make 3 more sandwiches. Serve immediately.

SHRIMP WITH GREEN GODDESS SAUCE

Steps:

• Bring a 6-quart pot of highly salted water to boil over high heat. Add the shrimp to the boiling water and simmer until they are cooked through, 3 to 4 minutes. With a slotted spoon or strainer, transfer the shrimp to a bowl of ice water to stop the cooking. Once cooled, drain, pat dry and reserve.
• Puree the creme fraiche, tarragon, scallions, zest and lemon juice in food processor until smooth. Season with salt and pepper. Transfer to a bowl and serve with the reserved shrimp.
• BYOC: For a little extra depth of flavor, try adding an anchovy fillet to the puree... trust me, it's great!

GREEN GODDESS ROASTED CHICKEN

Steps:

• In a blender, purée buttermilk, basil, chives, garlic, anchovies (if using), scallion, lime zest and juice, salt and pepper until smooth.
• Put chicken halves in a bowl or large heavy-duty resealable plastic bag and cover with three-quarters of the Green Goddess marinade. (Save the rest to serve as a sauce.) Refrigerate for at least 6 hours or up to overnight.
• Heat oven to 500 degrees. Remove chicken from the marinade, shaking off as much liquid as possible, and lay the halves on a rimmed baking sheet. (Discard the used marinade.) Pat chicken tops dry with paper towels and drizzle with oil. Roast until cooked through, about 30 to 45 minutes. Let rest for 10 minutes before serving, with some of the reserved sauce if you like.
