CHICKEN CHILI (Ina Gartner) Amy Barlow

Read more at: http://www.foodnetwork.com/recipes/ina-garten/chicken-chili-recipe.html?oc=linkback

Ingredients
4 cups chopped yellow onions (3 onions)
1/8 cup good olive oil, plus extra for chicken
1/8 cup minced garlic (2 cloves)
2 red bell peppers, cored, seeded, and large-diced
2 yellow bell peppers, cored, seeded, and large-diced
1 teaspoon chili powder
1 teaspoon ground cumin
1/4 teaspoon dried red pepper flakes, or to taste
1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper, or to taste
2 teaspoons kosher salt, plus more for chicken
2 (28-ounce) cans whole peeled plum tomatoes in puree, undrained
1/4 cup minced fresh basil leaves
4 split chicken breasts, bone in, skin on
Freshly ground black pepper

Toppings:
Chopped onions, corn chips, grated cheddar, sour cream, avocado

 I just tweeted it a little, I add more chopped garlic, and when it's time to add the tomatoes and spices, I add a portion of a box of chicken broth, if I'm making a large batch, the whole box, but also I include all the broth rendered from the baked split chicken breasts. Ina bakes split chicken breast, very important, skin on and bone in, olive oiled, salt and pepper, and baked to 165 internal temp. This renders juices that I pour off and put in frig while they are cooling. When juices are cooled you scrape off the fat and pour broth in the soup as it simmers. I found that preparing the base and letting it sit overnight in frig, then pulling and cutting up chicken and adding the next day to simmer again, following the process of Ins's recipe for about 20-30 mins longer on low improves the flavor. At this point, l also add white beans, two cans, can be Northern White beans or the Can...? The Italian version of white beans, both work, and I add a teaspoon or two, depending on the size of the batch, of tomato paste, deepens the flavors. Then just add additional spices to taste.  If I get a good amount of broth off the baked chicken my adjustments are small. If I don't get much broth from cooking the breasts, I sometimes add a chicken broth cube Knor brand. Just depends on how it goes, but it's all really simple to put together. If you don't have time, just go through the process and serve. But it will be better the next day, as all soup/chilies are. I'll see if I can forward the recipe from Food Network, but if not, just go there and type in Ina Garten chicken chili.
Cook the onions in the oil over medium-low heat for 10 to 15 minutes, until translucent. Add the garlic and cook for 1 more minute. Add the bell peppers, chili powder, cumin, red pepper flakes, cayenne, and salt. Cook for 1 minute. Crush the tomatoes by hand or in batches in a food processor fitted with a steel blade (pulse 6 to 8 times). Add to the pot with the basil. Bring to a boil, then reduce the heat and simmer, uncovered, for 30 minutes, stirring occasionally.

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.

Rub the chicken breasts with olive oil and place them on a baking sheet. Sprinkle generously with salt and pepper. Roast the chicken for 35 to 40 minutes, until just cooked. Let cool slightly. Separate the meat from the bones and skin and cut it into 3/4-inch chunks. Add to the chili and simmer, uncovered, for another 20 minutes. Serve with the toppings, or refrigerate and reheat gently before serving.

Stir in flour and bring to a boil, cooking 2 to 3 minutes.  Slowly stir in beef stock, water and vinegar.  Simmer partially cover about 15 minutes to blend flavors.  Add salt and pepper to taste.

Heave oven to 225 and cut bread into 4 thick slices.  Bake 6 minutes per side until dry.  Turn on broiler.  Pour soup into over safe individual serving dishes and lay one slice of bread on top of each dish.  Sprinkle grated cheese on top of the bread stack it as high as you can and broil 2 to 3 minutes, or until cheese is cooked to preference.  Make 4 servings 578 calories per serving.

Mom’s Chicken Noodle Soup
1 whole chicken (or chicken parts or beasts)
1 large onion
2 stalks celery
Carrots, chopped
Homemade noodles
2 cups flour
2 large eggs
1 teaspoon salt
4 tablespoons water

Cook chicken, onion, and celery together with salt and pepper.  You don't have to chop things up small just put them in the pan and cover with water.  Cook until the Chicken is done and the veg. are well cooked.  Pour into a colander to separate the veg and meat from the broth.

To the broth add chicken bouillon and seasonings.  I like the one that Dara brings me.  Put in chopped carrots.  Cook the carrots. 

Homemade noodles: mix the flour, eggs and salt together.  Add the water by tablespoons until you get a consistency that will stick together.  Use as little water as possible.  (Somewhere between 3 and 6 tablespoons) Wrap the dough ball into a plastic bag and let it set for at least 10 min.  Use flour and use a pasta maker to roll out dough.

Put noodle in the broth and cook until done.  Skin and bone the meat and cut up.  Add to broth and serve.  You can make it a cream sauce by adding canned milk and thickening a little.  But I don't do that. 


Pasta –All Purpose
2 cups flour
2 large eggs
5 water
1 teaspoon salt

Mix together.  Start with 3 tablespoons of water and add up to 6 if needed so you can barely knead the dough until smooth.  Let dough rest 10 to 20 min in plastic. Divide into 3 or 4 balls work on one ball at a time.  Keep others covered in plastic.  Shape into the kind of paste you want.
