Recipe for Chicken and Black Pudding
Ingredients:
– 4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
– 200g black pudding, sliced
– 1 onion, diced
– 2 cloves of garlic, minced
– 1 red bell pepper, diced
– 1 tsp paprika
– 1/2 tsp dried thyme
– 1/2 cup chicken broth
– Salt and pepper to taste
– Fresh parsley, chopped (for garnish)
Instructions:
1. Start by preheating your oven to 375°F (190°C). In a large oven-safe skillet, heat some olive oil over medium-high heat.
2. Season the chicken breasts with salt, pepper, and paprika. Place them in the skillet and cook for about 4-5 minutes on each side until golden brown. Remove the chicken from the skillet and set aside.
3. In the same skillet, add the diced onion, minced garlic, and red bell pepper. Cook until the vegetables are soft and fragrant, about 3-4 minutes.
4. Add the sliced black pudding to the skillet and cook for an additional 2-3 minutes, allowing it to crisp up slightly.
5. Sprinkle the dried thyme over the mixture and pour in the chicken broth. Stir well to combine all the flavors.
6. Return the chicken breasts to the skillet, nestling them into the black pudding and vegetable mixture.
7. Transfer the skillet to the preheated oven and bake for 20-25 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through and the juices run clear.
8. Once cooked, remove the skillet from the oven and let it rest for a few minutes before serving.
9. To serve, spoon the black pudding and vegetable mixture over the chicken breasts. Garnish with freshly chopped parsley for a pop of freshness.
Enjoy this delicious Chicken and Black Pudding dish with a side of creamy mashed potatoes, roasted vegetables, or crusty bread to soak up all the flavorful juices.
