Easy Healthy Chicken Recipes Biography

This started off life as a reworking of Coronation Chicken, that mixture I can't help liking, against all contemporary culinary strictures, of cold chicken, mayo, mango chutney, curry powder and apricot puree (or that's how both my grandmothers made it). But still, I wanted to pare it down, make it lighter and fresher, and so this is it.
Chicken Mango And Chilli Salad
Ingredients
1 mango (cut into approx. 1cm cubes)
1 spring onion (finely chopped)
1 - 2 red chillies (or to taste) deseeded and finely chopped
juice of 2 limes (to taste)
1 cold cooked chicken breast (cut into chunks)
1 little gem lettuce (sliced or shredded)
1 large handful fresh coriander (chopped)
1 teaspoon groundnut oil
4 drops toasted sesame
Method:
Tumble the mango cubes, and any juice they make, into a bowl and, with your hands, mix in the chopped spring onion and chilli and squeeze over the lime juice: use as much or as little as you want; frankly, the amount of juice you can get from a lime varies enormously from one to another.
I tend to leave all these to steep while I get on with the rest of my shredding and chopping, but whatever way you do it, tumble in the chunked chicken and shredded lettuce and most of the coriander and, using your hands, toss to combine. Add the oils and toss again then decant on to a large serving plate and sprinkle over the remaining bit of coriander.
Even the word pie is comforting. But then, it would be hard to deny the very real lure of pastry, especially when, as here, you know you're going to dunk it in gravied juices till its luscious lightness has become deliciously, soggily heavy. I concede, however, that making and rolling out your own pastry is not necessarily the speediest option, so I use bought, all-butter ready-rolled puff pastry and feel fine about it.
I make the pie even easier, by browning the chicken and making the sauce all in one go. And gold-crusted, welcoming pies for two people in half an hour is not bad going.
Chicken Mushroom And Bacon Pie
Ingredients:
3 rashers streaky bacon (cut or scissored into 2.5cm / 1 inch strips)
1 teaspoon garlic infused olive oil
125 grams chestnut mushrooms (sliced into 5mm/eighth inch pieces)
250 grams chicken thigh fillets (cut into 2.5cm/1 inch pieces)
25 grams plain flour
½ teaspoon dried thyme
1 tablespoon butter
300 ml hot chicken stock
1 tablespoon marsala
375 grams all-butter ready-rolled puff pastry sheet (23 x 40cm / 9 1/2 x 9½ inch
Method:
Preheat the oven to 220°C/gas mark 7/425ºF. In a heavy-based frying pan, fry the streaky bacon strips in the oil until beginning to crisp, then add the sliced mushrooms and soften them in the pan with the streaky bacon.
Turn the chicken strips in the flour and thyme (you could toss them about in a freezer bag), and then melt the butter in the streaky bacon-and-mushroom pan before adding the floury chicken and all the flour left in the bag. Stir around with the streaky bacon and mushrooms until the chicken begins to colour.
Pour in the hot stock and Marsala, stirring to form a sauce, and let this bubble away for about 5 minutes.
Take two 300ml / 1¼ cup pie-pots (if yours are deeper, don't worry, there will simply be more space between contents and puff pastry top) and make a pastry rim for each one - by this I mean an approx. 1cm / ½ inch strip curled around the top of each pot. Dampen the edges with a little water to make the pastry stick.
Cut a circle bigger than the top of each pie-pot for the lid, and then divide the chicken filling between the two pots.
Dampen the rim of the pastry again and then pop on the lid of each pie, sealing the edges with your fingers or the underneath of the prongs of a fork.
Cook the pies for about 20 minutes turning them around halfway through cooking. Once cooked, they should have puffed up magnificently.
