Miguel's marry me chicken

Category: food

Who doesn’t love gathering around the table with loved ones to share a hearty, home-cooked meal in winter? At Stockland, we believe that food has the power to bring people together and make a house feel like a home. That's why we're excited to share one of Miguel's favourite winter recipes with you – his famous marry me chicken.  

Be prepared to fall head over heels for this dish – it's so good, that you'll be begging for seconds (and thirds, and maybe even fourths!). And the best part? You can easily pull the entire dish together with a quick trip to your local Stockland shopping centre for the freshest ingredients. Then, it's time to hit the kitchen and cook up a storm. 


Method

1. Season the chicken by dusting it in a mixture of the flour and 2 tsp of paprika. 

2. Heat oil and 25g butter in a large deep frypan over medium heat. Cook until deep golden on both sides (2-3 mins each side). 

3. Remove from the pan then add the remaining 25g butter to the pan and melt, then add the onion and cook for 3-4 minutes until softened. 

4. Add the garlic, chilli, oregano, remaining paprika and cook for 1 minute then add the stock and cream. 

5. Cook for 5 minutes, scraping the bottom of the pan. Season with lots of cracked black pepper and add the semi dried tomatoes and then cook for 5 minutes for the flavours to infuse

6. Stir through parmesan and melt then add the chicken back to the pan and cook for another 8 minutes. 

7. Drizzle with lemon juice and scatter with parsley. Serve with parmesan potatoes and green salad. 

 

 

Tip

  • Serve with a green salad of Cos lettuce, chives, cracked pepper and extra virgin olive oil.
