Provided by Sarah

Categories     Noodles and Pasta

Time 30m

Number Of Ingredients 16

8 oz. boneless skinless chicken thighs ((225g, cut into thin strips))
2 teaspoons cornstarch
2 teaspoons water
2 teaspoons oil ((plus more for cooking))
1 clove garlic ((minced))
4 cups cabbage ((shredded))
2 medium carrots ((julienned))
1 tablespoon shaoxing wine
16 oz. fresh lo mein egg noodles
1 tablespoon soy sauce
4 teaspoons dark soy sauce
1 teaspoon sesame oil
1/8 teaspoon salt
1/8 teaspoon sugar
2 cups mung bean sprouts
2 scallions ((julienned))

Steps:

  • In a medium bowl, combine the chicken with 2 teaspoons each of cornstarch, water, and oil. In a wok over high heat, add 2 tablespoons oil, and sear the chicken for a couple minutes until browned. Remove from the wok, and set aside.
  • Add another couple tablespoons of oil to the wok, and add the garlic. After 10 seconds, add the cabbage and carrots. Stir-fry on high heat for a minute and add the wine in a circle around the perimeter of the wok.
  • Add the noodles and chicken back to the wok and mix well from the bottom up for about 30 seconds. If the noodles aren't coming apart, add about 1/4 cup water to the noodles to loosen them up a bit.
  • Then cover the wok for one minute. Remove the cover and add the soy sauce, dark soy sauce, sesame oil, salt, and sugar. Stir-fry for 30 seconds, and add the bean sprouts and scallions. Stir-fry for one more minute and serve.

ONE RECIPE, TWO MEALS: CREAMY CHICKEN PASTA



One Recipe, Two Meals: Creamy Chicken Pasta image

It's almost winter. Cream sauces are mandatory. We're adding veggies and pasta and chicken and vodka, so it's all good. It's buttery, creamy and cheesy for the kids, and for you adults, it's adorned with a tiny kiss of vodka, right at the end.

Provided by Bev Weidner

Categories     main-dish

Time 1h5m

Yield 2 adult and 2 kid servings

Number Of Ingredients 14

Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
12 ounces mafalda pasta, or any small curly pasta
2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
2 chicken breast cutlets
2 medium carrots, thinly sliced
1/3 cup thinly sliced red onion
1 bunch asparagus, cut into 2-inch pieces (ends trimmed and discarded)
3 cloves garlic, minced
2 tablespoons butter
2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
2 cups milk
1/4 cup grated Parmesan
1 shot vodka
Fresh parsley leaves, for garnish

Steps:

  • Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Cook the pasta until it reaches al dente, according to the package directions.
  • Heat 1 tablespoon of the oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Sprinkle the chicken on both sides with salt and pepper. Sear the chicken, covered, for 5 minutes. Flip and sear another 5 minutes, covered. Remove the chicken from the pan and set aside to rest. After a few minutes, give the chicken a good chop.
  • Back in the skillet, add the remaining tablespoon oil. Add the carrots and cook, stirring, until they start to soften, about 4 minutes. Add the onions and asparagus and cook, stirring, until the asparagus is crisp-tender, another few minutes. Add the garlic and cook, stirring, until it becomes fragrant, about 30 seconds. Season the veggies with a pinch of salt and pepper and reduce the heat the low.
  • In the meantime, melt the butter in a small saucepan. Once the foaming subsides, add the flour and whisk until the color changes from cream to a golden brown, just a few minutes. Slowly add the milk, continuing to whisk over medium heat, until it becomes a bit thicker and creamier. Now, add the Parmesan and a good pinch of salt. Keep whisking until the cheese is melted and the sauce is good and creamy. Taste it and add more salt if needed.
  • Ladle out about 2/3 cup cream sauce and add it to 1 cup cooked pasta, tossing to coat. Divide between 2 kids' plates and top with chopped chicken and extra Parmesan. Done! (Feel free to sprinkle the veggies on the kids' plates, if they'll remotely let you.)
  • Now, back to the cream sauce: stir in the vodka and let it simmer for a couple of minutes.
  • For your adult plates, serve the creamy pasta with chicken and a good helping of cooked veggies. Garnish with extra Parmesan and fresh parsley.
  • Eat!

ONE RECIPE, TWO MEALS: CRISPY BAKED CHICKEN



One Recipe, Two Meals: Crispy Baked Chicken image

Since the coating is the exact same for all the chicken, it's a definite timesaver on a weeknight. Holla. You'll serve the nuggets with some ketchup and steamed broccoli for the kids. And then you'll just drape your chicken over some super-quick lemony linguine for you. And all is right in the world.

Provided by Bev Weidner

Categories     main-dish

Time 1h10m

Yield 4 servings (2 kids, 2 adults)

Number Of Ingredients 13

1 cup all-purpose flour
2 cups panko
1 tablespoon Italian seasoning
1/3 cup plus 1/4 cup freshly grated Parmesan, plus extra for serving
Salt
2 eggs
2 pounds chicken breast, 1 pound cut into 1-inch cubes and the other pound cut in half lengthwise and pounded out thinly
1 cup broccoli, boiled or steamed
Ketchup, for serving
1/2 pound linguine
2 tablespoons butter
Chopped fresh parsley, for garnish
1 lemon, cut in half

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F. Place the flour in a shallow dish. In another shallow dish, combine the panko, Italian seasoning, 1/3 cup Parmesan and a pinch of salt. In one more shallow dish, beat the eggs.
  • Set a shallow cooling rack in a baking sheet. Take each cube of chicken and lightly dredge it in the flour. Dip it in the egg wash, then roll it in the panko. Continue until all of the chicken cubes are coated in panko. Arrange on the cooling rack set in the baking sheet and bake, flipping halfway through, until golden brown on all sides, 15 to 20 minutes.
  • Serve these baked nuggets with a side of steamed broccoli and a little bit of ketchup for dipping! Your kids will freak out.
  • Now for your mature palate: Proceed with the pounded chicken, in the same fashion as the nuggets. First the flour, then the egg, then a good coating of the panko. Arrange the chicken on the rack on the baking sheet and bake until golden brown on both sides, 15 to 20 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, cook the linguine in a pot of salted water until it is al dente and drain, reserving about 1/4 cup of pasta water. Transfer the pasta back to the pot. Add the butter, parsley, juice from half the lemon, the reserved pasta water and the remaining 1/4 cup Parmesan and give it all a good toss.
  • To dress it up a tad more, slice the remaining half lemon, then sear a few lemon slices in a small saute pan-so fancy.
  • Serve the baked chicken over the pasta and serve with extra Parmesan!

CHICKEN LO MEIN



Chicken Lo Mein image

This dish is easy to make, and full of flavor. The chicken is incredibly tender, and the ginger, garlic and soy sauce combine to give it its authentic taste. Garnish with chopped fresh cilantro.

Provided by Meesh

Categories     World Cuisine Recipes     Asian

Time 2h15m

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 15

4 skinless, boneless chicken breast halves - cut into thin strips
5 teaspoons white sugar, divided
3 tablespoons rice wine vinegar
½ cup soy sauce, divided
1 ¼ cups chicken broth
1 cup water
1 tablespoon sesame oil
½ teaspoon ground black pepper
2 tablespoons cornstarch
1 (12 ounce) package uncooked linguine pasta
2 tablespoons vegetable oil, divided
2 tablespoons minced fresh ginger root
1 tablespoon minced garlic
½ pound fresh shiitake mushrooms, stemmed and sliced
6 green onions, sliced diagonally into 1/2 inch pieces

Steps:

  • In a medium, non-reactive bowl, combine the chicken with 2 1/2 teaspoons of white sugar, 1 1/2 tablespoons vinegar and 1/4 cup soy sauce. Mix this together and coat the chicken well. Cover and let marinate in the refrigerator for at least 1 hour.
  • In another medium bowl, combine the chicken broth, water, sesame oil and ground black pepper with the remaining sugar, vinegar and soy sauce. In a separate small bowl, dissolve the cornstarch with some of this mixture and slowly add to the bulk of the mixture, stirring well. Set aside.
  • Cook the linguine according to package directions, drain and set aside. Heat 1 tablespoon of the vegetable oil in a wok or large saucepan over high heat until it starts to smoke. Add the chicken and stir-fry for 4 to 5 minutes, or until browned. Transfer this and all juices to a warm plate.
  • Heat the remaining vegetable oil in the wok or pan over high heat. Add the ginger, garlic, mushrooms and green onions, and stir-fry for 30 seconds. Add the reserved sauce mixture and then the chicken. Simmer until the sauce begins to thicken, about 2 minutes. Add the reserved noodles and toss gently, coating everything well with the sauce.

ONE RECIPE, TWO MEALS CHICKEN LO MEIN



One Recipe, Two Meals Chicken Lo Mein image

Good news: I've got the solution for dinner. And it involves lo mein noodles and chicken and a crazy-gorgeous sauce! Your kids' version is way simple, and for grown-ups, I made a fantastic Asian dressing to swirl into the cooked chicken. You'll also add diced red bell pepper, some bean sprouts and a truckload of scallions.

Provided by Bev Weidner

Categories     main-dish

Time 35m

Yield 4 servings (2 kids, 2 adults)

Number Of Ingredients 15

Kosher salt
Two 3-ounce bundles lo mein noodles (spaghetti can be subbed!)
Sesame oil, for drizzling, optional
3 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil, plus additional for drizzling
1 pound ground chicken
2 teaspoons Chinese 5-spice powder
3 tablespoons orange juice
Mandarin orange wedges, for garnish
3 scallions, finely chopped
3 tablespoons soy sauce
1 tablespoon brown sugar
1 teaspoon fish sauce
Juice from 1 lime, plus lime wedges, for garnish
About 3/4 of a 15-ounce can bean sprouts, drained
1 red bell pepper, finely chopped

Steps:

  • Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Cook the lo mein noodles until al dente, about 3 minutes. Drain, and drizzle with a little bit of sesame or olive oil, to keep the noodles from sticking. Set aside.
  • Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the chicken and brown, breaking it up with a wooden spoon. Add the Chinese 5-spice powder and a small pinch of salt. Continue to cook until the seasoning coats the chicken, about 30 seconds.
  • At this point, set aside about 3/4 cup of the noodles with 1/2 cup of the chicken. Divide that between two small plates, and drizzle a tablespoon of orange juice over both plates. Garnish with a few mandarin orange wedges and a tiny bit of scallions, if your kids dig it! Serve it to your littles.
  • Now, for you. In a small bowl, whisk together the soy sauce, brown sugar, fish sauce, lime juice, olive oil, and the remaining 2 tablespoons orange juice. Pour the mix over the remaining ground chicken in your skillet, and bring the heat back up (if you've turned it down, to tend to the kids). Add the bean sprouts and bell pepper and cook, stirring, 3 more minutes, so the flavors have time to marry. Add the remaining noodles to the pan and toss to combine.
  • Serve with fresh lime wedges and the remaining scallions! Good grief, almighty. Eat!

ONE RECIPE, TWO MEALS: CHICKEN STIR-FRY



One Recipe, Two Meals: Chicken Stir-Fry image

I always forget what a cinch it is to pull together a stir-fry: some hot oil, a lean protein, an array of brightly colored veggies, maybe a carb or 40, and some quick garnishes. Bam! Dinner's done. We've got two quick chicken stir-fry methods here: one crazy-speedy, stripped-down recipe for the kiddie kids, and one right behind it with more goods in it. More flavor. More sauce. More errrthang. You're gonna dig it.

Provided by Bev Weidner

Categories     main-dish

Time 40m

Yield 4 servings (2 kids, 2 adults)

Number Of Ingredients 14

4 to 5 tablespoons sesame oil
1 pound chicken breast, thinly sliced
Coarse salt and freshly ground pepper
1 cup frozen mixed veggies, thawed
1 box (14 ounces) stir-fry rice noodles
3 scallions, finely sliced
Sesame seeds, for garnish
4 cloves garlic, minced
1 tablespoon freshly minced ginger root
1 tablespoon lemongrass paste
1 red bell pepper, thinly sliced
1 bag (6 ounces) snow peas, sliced on the diagonal
3 tablespoons soy sauce
Juice of 1 lime

Steps:

  • Heat 2 tablespoons of the sesame oil in a large saute pan. Add the chicken to the pan, and sprinkle with salt and pepper; sear on one side for 3 minutes. Flip and sear until you see nice browning all over, another minute or two. Remove the chicken and set aside.
  • Add the thawed veggies to the pan to simply warm through.
  • In the meantime, bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add the rice noodles and boil for about 1 minute. Remove from the heat and let stand for about 5 minutes. Drain the noodles.
  • At this point you're ready to serve the kids! Using tongs, grab a small mound of noodles and plate them. Top with the warm veggies and a few slices of chicken. If your kids can dig a little scallion, by all means, garnish away! Sesame seeds are fun, too.
  • Now let's continue on for our adult mouth holes.
  • Back in the saute pan, bring another tablespoon or two of sesame oil to a medium-high heat. Add the garlic, ginger and lemongrass. Let bloom and saute for about 30 seconds, then add the red bell pepper and snow peas. Sprinkle with a small pinch of salt and pepper. Toss and saute a couple of minutes, until the veggies slightly soften and pop in color.
  • Add the chicken to the pan, along with as many noodles as you can fit. Add the soy sauce, lime juice and maybe 1 more tablespoon of sesame oil. Toss everything together to coat.
  • Serve on a huge platter (or individual plates) garnished with scallions and sesame seeds!
