Salsa Verde Chicken Stew Food

CHICKEN CHILE VERDE STEW

Steps:

• Set the oven to broil.
• Place tomatillos, poblano peppers, jalapeno, and unpeeled garlic cloves onto a sheet pan.
• Broil on the top rack of the oven, turning ingredients occasionally, for 15-20 minutes, or until skin is blackened in spots on all sides. (Note: You can remove items individually as they are ready. Remove garlic first so that it doesn't burn.)
• Peel the skin from the roasted garlic cloves, and set the peeled cloves aside. Place the roasted poblanos and jalapenos into a sealable ziploc bag. Let cool, remove skin and seeds from peppers, and dice.
• Put diced peppers, tomatillos and garlic cloves into a blender. Add chicken broth, 1/2 cup cilantro, salt, cumin, and onion powder and blend until combined. (You should end up with about 4 cups of sauce. If you have less, you can add some additional broth).
• Pour blended mixture into a slow cooker. Add shredded rotisserie chicken and drained beans. Cook on low for several hours until ready to serve.
• Serve topped with additional cilantro and cheese, if desired.

SLOW COOKER SALSA VERDE CHICKEN

Steps:

• Combine the chicken thighs, salsa verde, green chiles, chopped garlic, jalapeño, garlic powder, onion powder and cumin in a 6- to 8-quart slow cooker. Stir to evenly combine. (Don't add salt now; jarred salsas are often high in sodium.) Cook on low until the chicken is tender and the flavors are blended, 5 to 6 hours. (If you will be away for 8 hours or more, set the cook time for 4 hours on low and set the slow cooker auto-switch to warm for the remaining time.)
• Use two forks to coarsely shred the chicken. With the heat on low, add the scallions and cilantro, and stir to combine. Season to taste with salt and lime juice. Serve with rice or in tortillas, if desired, with accompaniments.

CHICKEN SALSA VERDE

Steps:

• For the chicken: Preheat a cast-iron grill pan over medium-high heat. Drizzle the chicken with 2 tablespoons of the canola oil. Season with 2 teaspoons of the salt and 1 teaspoon of the pepper; drizzle with the remaining 4 teaspoons canola oil.
• Place the chicken seasoned-side down on the grill. Season the side facing upwards with the remaining 2 teaspoons salt and 1 teaspoon pepper. Cook the chicken until golden-brown and the exterior has formed a crust, turning midway through to form the cross-hatch pattern, 3 to 4 minutes. (Note: the chicken is not being flipped, the same side is still on the grill.) Flip the chicken and repeat until the other side is golden brown, 3 to 4 minutes. The center of the chicken should be firm to the touch when poked and the meat thermometer should read 165 degrees F.
• For the salsa verde: Combine the garlic and the anchovies on the cutting board. Put the parsley, chives and tarragon on the cutting board and coarsely chop to combine with the garlic mixture. Put the salsa mixture in a medium bowl and add the lemon zest. Add the red pepper and salt. Mix the herb mixture together while drizzling in the olive oil until thoroughly combined. Put the salsa in a serving bowl and set aside until the chicken is ready.

PRESSURE COOKER SALSA VERDE CHICKEN

Steps:

• Add the chicken, salsa verde, canned chiles, chopped garlic, jalapeño, garlic powder, onion powder and cumin to a 6- to 8-quart electric pressure cooker; stir to combine. (Don't add salt yet, as many jarred salsas are high in sodium.) Close the lid and turn the pressure knob to sealed. Cook on high pressure for 8 minutes.
• Turn off the pressure cooker and allow the pressure to release naturally for 10 minutes, then release the remaining pressure manually. Open the lid. If you would like to reduce the sauce, remove the chicken with a slotted spoon to a bowl and turn on the simmer function; let the sauce bubble for about 5 minutes, stirring occasionally, to thicken. Add the chicken back into the pot if you have removed it. Use two forks to coarsely shred the chicken. Stir in the scallions and cilantro. Taste, and season with salt and lime juice.
• Serve in bowls, alone or with rice, or in tortillas, with desired toppings.

SALSA VERDE CHICKEN STEW

Steps:

• Heat 1 teaspoon oil in a Dutch oven over medium heat. Stir in 1/2 of the onion and 1/2 of the poblano pepper; cook and stir for 3 to 4 minutes. Add garlic and cook until fragrant, about 1 minute. Deglaze the pan with water.
• Add chicken, 1/4 jar of salsa verde, 1 teaspoon cumin, and 1 teaspoon chile-lime seasoning. Reduce heat to medium-low and simmer until chicken is no longer pink in the center and the juices run clear, 15 to 20 minutes. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 165 degrees F (74 degrees C).
• Remove chicken and shred. Add back to the pot with remaining onion, poblano pepper, salsa verde, cumin, and chile-lime seasoning. Add cannellini beans, green chiles, and cilantro. Simmer for 1 hour.
• Add frozen corn and sour cream; cook until heated through, about 5 minutes.

CHICKEN VERDE SANDWICHES

Steps:

• Combine the frozen boneless chicken breast, prepared pizza sauce, and salsa verde in a slow cooker. Cover the cooker, and cook on Low 8 to 10 hours.
• Use 2 forks to pull the chicken meat apart until completely shredded. Stir 1/2 cup sour cream into the chicken mixture. Place the chicken mixture onto the rolls. Top each sandwich with 1 ounce shredded Cheddar cheese, 1 ounce sour cream, and 2 dashes hot sauce to serve
