Easy, flavourful, and ready in 30 minutes, this skillet chicken cutlet in creamy, cheesy sun dried tomato sauce recipe is a crowd pleaser. The sauce is not only great for chicken, also perfect for salmon or shrimp. Be sure to use real, freshly grated parmesan cheese, which makes the difference to the texture and flavour of the sauce. Fantastic over some pasta or with zoodles if you are on keto.

  • 4 Chicken cutlets (about 1 pound)
  • Salt and black pepper
  • 2 tbsp Ghee
  • 3 Garlic cloves, peeled and chopped
  • 1/4 tsp Chilli flakes
  • 10 Sundried tomatoes in olive oil, sliced
  • 60 ml White wine
  • 180 ml Chicken broth
  • 120 ml Heavy cream
  • 50 g Parmigiano-Reggiano
  • Fresh herb, chopped (parsley, basil or thyme)
  1. Season the chicken cutlets with salt and pepper. Heat ghee in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the chicken and cook, turning once, until browned, about 8 minutes. Transfer to a plate and cover to keep warm while you make the sauce.
  2. Add garlic, chilli flakes and sundried tomatoes to the pan. Cook, stirring, for 1 minute. Increase heat to high and add white wine. Cook, scraping up any browned bits, until the liquid has mostly evaporated, about 2 minutes. Add in chicken broth, cream, Parmesan and any accumulated juices from the chicken. Cook for 2 minutes. Taste and season.
  3. Return the chicken cutlets to the pan and turn to coat with the sauce. Serve the chicken topped with the sauce and chopped herbs.

Golden Spiced Sandwich Loaf

Sunday, August 15, 2021

© 2021 | http://angiesrecipes.blogspot.com




© 2021 | http://angiesrecipes.blogspot.com


A mix of exotic, aromatic spices (turmeric, fennel, cayenne, cumin and nigella seeds) adds not only beautiful golden colour, also amazing flavour and complexity to this deliciously high-risen sandwich loaf with a beautifully soft, tender crumb. You can enjoy it plain as it is or toast it up as the breakfast with some butter and homemade jam or slice it thick and turn into French toast or use the leftover to bake up a batch of croutons for your next salad, soup and more.

Spice BlendDough
  • 1 tsp Cumin, toasted and coarsely ground
  • 1 1/2 tsp Turmeric powder
  • 1/2 tsp Fennel seeds, toasted and coarsely ground
  • A large pinch of cayenne pepper
  • 240 ml Whole milk
  • Spice blend from above
  • 20 g Maple syrup
  • 50 g Unsalted butter, at room temperature
  • 3 tsp Celtic grey salt (or regular sea salt)
  • 2 tsp Active dry yeast
  • 1 tbsp Nigella seeds
  • 420 g Plain flour
  1. Mix together all of the ingredients for the spice blend. Bring the milk to a simmer and stir in the spice blend. Remove from the heat and let the mixture steep for at least 2 hours. I covered it with a plastic film and left it overnight in the fridge.
  2. Heat the infused milk to lukewarm and place in the bowl of your stand mixer. Add the maple syrup, butter, salt, yeast, and nigella seeds. Add the flour and mix and knead until a soft, smooth dough forms, about 8 minutes.
  3. Turn out the dough on a work surface. Shape the dough into a ball. Lightly grease the mixing bowl with a bit of olive oil. Return the dough and cover with a clean kitchen towel. Let rise for 1 hour, until doubled.
  4. Line a standard loaf pan with parchment paper. Punch down the dough and roll it into a log. Place the log seam-side down in the prepared pan. Cover and let rise till doubled, about 45 minutes.
  5. Near the end of the rise, preheat the oven to 190C/375F. Bake for 30 minutes or until golden brown. Remove from the oven and turn the loaf out onto a rack to cool completely before slicing.

Sesame Green Bean Chicken Salad

Friday, August 13, 2021

© 2021 | http://angiesrecipes.blogspot.com




© 2021 | http://angiesrecipes.blogspot.com


Crispy-tender green beans, delicate shredded chicken, a creamy addictive sesame dressing: this simple, deliciously healthy and flavour-packed salad makes a perfect, almost-effortless summer meal. Although you can find green beans in supermarkets all year round, there’s nothing like plump, fresh green beans in summer. I used 3 chicken thighs for the recipe, but you can use chicken breast, or leftover roasted chicken. Try to shred the chicken the same size as the sliced green beans for the best texture. This salad tastes the best after chilling for an hour in the refridgerator, but if you are short on time or can't wait that long, serve it immediately.

  • 350 g Chicken thigh or chicken breast
  • 2-3 slice Ginger
  • 1 Scallion, chopped
  • Sea salt
  • 400 g Green beans, trimmed
  • 35 g White sesame seeds, toasted
  • 60 g Mayonnaise, homemade or store-bought
  • 1 tbsp Soya sauce
  • 1 Lime, juiced or plain rice vinegar
  • 2 tsp Toasted sesame oil
  • 1 tsp Honey
  1. In a medium saucepan, add the chicken thighs or breast, ginger, scallion and enough cold water to cover it by 1 inch. Bring to a boil over medium-high heat. When the water begins to boil, lower heat immediately to a gentle simmer, cover partially with a lid and cook for 15 minutes for the thighs, and 10 minutes for the breast. Turn off the heat, cover completely with lid, and leave on the stovetop for another 10 minutes.
  2. Meanwhile, bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add in green beans into boiling water and cook until crisp-tender, 4-5 minutes. Fill a bowl with ice water. Use a slotted spoon to transfer the green beans to the ice water to cool completely. Drain well.
  3. Cut the green beans lengthwise into thirds on a slight diagonal. Transfer to a large bowl and refrigerate.
  4. For the dressing, coarsely grind the sesame seeds, leaving some whole. In a small bowl, combine ground sesame seeds, mayonnaise, soya sauce, lime juice or rice vinegar, sesame oil, honey and 1/3 teaspoon sea salt. Stir until smooth.
  5. Transfer the chicken to a plate to cool completely. If you are short in time, just cool it in a bowl of ice wate. When chicken is cool enough to handle, pat dry, then finely shred the meat with 2 forks. The shreds should be similar in size to the sliced green.
  6. Add the shredded chicken and all of the dressing to the chilled green beans. Toss gently until coated. Cover and chill for an hour before serving.

Yoghurt Rye Cake with Apricots and Almonds

Wednesday, August 11, 2021

© 2021 | http://angiesrecipes.blogspot.com




© 2021 | http://angiesrecipes.blogspot.com


Dark rye flour, coconut sugar and cardamom give this simple cake real depth of flavour and a wonderful colour and thanks to natural Greek yoghurt and sweet ripe apricots, the cake turned out really yummy with a perfectly dense and moist texture. It’s great as a teatime snack or you could serve it as a dessert with a little mascarpone cream. For this cake, I used half dark rye flour and half plain flour. Next time I will definitely try it with 100% rye flour.

  • 120 g Rye flour
  • 120 g Plain flour
  • A pinch of salt
  • 1/2 tsp Cardamom
  • 1/2 tsp Baking soda
  • 1 1/2 tsp Baking powder
  • 120 g Kerrygold butter, softened
  • 100 g Coconut sugar
  • 1 tsp Vanilla extract
  • 2 Eggs, medium
  • 285 g Greek yoghurt, room temperature
  • 5 Ripe apricots, pitted and quartered
  • 50 g Almond slices
  • 1 tbsp Coconut sugar
  • 30 g Kerrygold butter, cut into thin slices
  1. Preheat the oven to 180C/350F. Line the bottom of a 24-cm spring-form pan with parchment paper and grease the sides with a bit of butter.
  2. Whisk rye flour, plain flour, salt, cardamom, baking soda and baking powder together.
  3. Using an electric mixer, beat butter, coconut sugar and vanilla until light and fluffy. Add eggs, one at a time, beating after each addition.
  4. Sift in half flour mixture, gently stir to combine. Add in Greek yoghurt, then the remaining flour mixture. Mix until combined. The batter will be thick.
  5. Spoon half the cake mixture into prepared pan. Smooth surface. Top with apricot wedges. Spoon remaining mixture over apricots. Smooth the surface. Sprinkle with almonds and coconut sugar. Arrange the butter slices on top.
  6. Bake for about 50 minutes or until a skewer inserted into the centre comes out clean. Stand cake for 5 minutes in pan. Remove from pan and place on a wire rack to cool.

Jerk Rub Chicken with Peach Salsa

Monday, August 09, 2021

© 2021 | http://angiesrecipes.blogspot.com




© 2021 | http://angiesrecipes.blogspot.com


Jamaican jerk spice blend works great to jazz up the boring bland skinless boneless chicken breast while sweet juicy peach salsa makes an excellent summery addition to the meal. The recipe is easy, quick and very versatile. Use chicken drumsticks or thighs instead of breast, mango or pineapple for the salsa in the place of peach and feel free to use more jalapenos if you want it spicier. If you don't have any fresh lime on hand, just use lemon.
Jamaican jerk rub is a spicy, sweet, and tangy seasoning for grilled meat, pork and chicken particularly.

Jamaican Jerk ChickenPeach Salsa
  • 1 tbsp Garlic granules
  • 1 tbsp Coconut sugar
  • 4 tsp Dried thyme leaves
  • 2 tsp Salt
  • 2 tsp Ground black pepper
  • 2 tsp Ground allspice
  • 1/2 tsp Ground nutmeg
  • 1/2 tsp Ground cinnamon
  • 1 tsp Cayenne pepper
  • 1 tbsp Olive oil
  • 2 tbsp Butter
  • 3 / 500-600 g Chicken breast
  • 350-400 g / 2 Ripe yet firm peaches, peeled and diced
  • 150 g Red bell pepper, seeded, finely diced
  • 1 alapeño, seeded and finely diced
  • 1 Red onion, finely diced
  • 3-4 tbsp Mint and parsley, chopped
  • 2 tbsp Freshly squeezed lime juice
  • 1 Large garlic clove, minced
  • 1 tsp Salt
  • 1/4 tsp Black pepper
  1. In a bowl, combine all the spices for the rub and mix well. Cut the chicken breast lengthways into 2 equal pieces. Add in 2 tablespoons of the prepared rub and massage it into the chicken, making sure that chicken is evenly covered with spice mixture. Store the rest airtight at room temperature. Cover and leave to marinate while you prepare the salsa. You can make this one day ahead and leave the chicken marinate overnight.
  2. Peel and dice the peaches. Transfer them to a bowl. Finely chop seeded bell pepper, jalapeño. and red onion and add all the vegetables to the bowl with peaches. Add chopped mint, parsley, lime juice, salt and pepper. Gently toss everything together until well mixed. Cover and chill in the fridge for 30 minutes.
  3. Heat the olive oil in a large skillet (or grill pan) on high until hot. Add in chicken breast and cook until well browned, about 5 minutes. Lower the heat and add in butter, cook, covered, for a further 5 minutes until cooked through.
  4. Spoon the prepared peach salsa on a platter and top with jerk rub chicken. Garnish with fresh mint leaf. Enjoy!

© 2021 | http://angiesrecipes.blogspot.com


Not only are these easy savoury zucchini and buckwheat muffins ideal for afternoon break, they're great at busting after-school hunger too. They are made with a mixture of spelt and buckwheat flour, so they are much healthier, not gluten free though. Use all purpose gluten free flour instead of white spelt flour if you are gluten intolerant or have a celiac disease. Crème fraîche and olive oil help keep yield muffins that are soft, tender and moist. Add in some walnuts if you want more texture, but these muffins have plenty even without them thanks to the Feta, Dijon mustard and spices.

  • 400 g Zucchini, coarsely grated
  • 1 tsp Salt
  • 150 g White spelt flour
  • 150 g Buckwheat flour
  • 1 1/2 tsp Baking powder
  • 1 tsp Baking soda
  • 80 ml Olive oil (or butter, melted)
  • 2 Large eggs
  • 1 tbsp Coconut sugar
  • 200 g Crème fraîche
  • 2 tbsp Maille Dijon mustard
  • 2 tsp Dried oregano
  • 2 tsp Dried garlic powder
  • 1 tsp Smoked paprika powder
  • 150 g Feta, cubed
  1. Coarsly grate the zucchini and place them in a bowl. Add in salt and set aside for 30 minutes. Squeeze as much of the liquid out as possible.
  2. Preheat the oven 200C/400F. Grease and flour a giant 6-cup muffin pan. Set aside.
  3. In a mixing bowl, add white spelt flour, buckwheat flour, baking powder and baking soda. Make a well in centre.
  4. Whisk olive oil, eggs, coconut sugar, crème fraîche, mustard, oregano, garlic powder and paparika in a jug and pour into the well. Add zucchini and cubed feta. Stir until just combined. Divide the batter among prepared muffin cups.
  5. Bake for 25-30 minutes or until a skewer inserted into the centres comes out clean. Set aside in the pan for 5 minutes to cool slightly. Serve warm or at room temperature.
