This recipe is an example of why I’ve become a fan of 5 Ingredient Fix on the Food Network. I watched Claire Robinson make what she called Turkey Robinson a couple of days ago; she raved about it and so I decided to try it . . . at least my version of it. Think Barry was a little skeptical as he prepared the rice to accompany the main dish, but . . . one bite and he was sold!
She also suggested, “You’ll like this so much that you may want to attach your name to the recipe instead of mine.” I did.
Chicken West for 2
2 tablespoons olive oil
1 chicken breast, ground (I ground it using the grinding attachment on our Kitchen Aid mixer)
1 clove of garlic, minced
Kosher salt and cracked black pepper, to taste
1 cup+ chicken stock
3 liberal handfuls of spinach leaves
½ of a 15 oz. can cannellini beans, drained
Roasted red pepper – enough to add some color
Brown rice for serving (Barry sautéed a few finely chopped onions, celery and carrots in olive oil before adding the rice; the mixture was then cooked according to package directions but he used a combination of water and chicken stock for the cooking medium)
1. Heat the oil in a large skillet over moderately-high heat until hot but not smoking.
2. Add the ground chicken and garlic -- using a wooden spoon, break up the clumps and cook until golden brown, 2 to 3 minutes. Season with salt and pepper.
3. Add the stock and scrape up any bits on the bottom of the pan. Bring up to a boil, and then let simmer until slightly reduced, about 10 minutes.
4. Stir in the spinach, cannellini beans and roasted red pepper; heat through.
5. Season with additional salt and pepper, if needed.
6. Serve over brown rice.
