This recipe features chicken breasts, seasoned and seared to give a nice crunchy surface, then soaked in a quick garlicy tomatosauceand baked in the oven until perfectly done but still soft and juicy
as a pizza topping (see my pita bread one), with grilled fish or chicken, as a bruschetta or garlic bread topping, as a sauce for pasta or zucchini noodles, as an arancinifilling, with cheese and savoury crackers (like my fennel flatbreads), to top soccas/farinata, as a savoury pancake filling
In a large frying pan or casserole dish heat the olive oil and brown all the chicken thighs. I had something very similar at a friends house last week and enjoyed it so much I wanted to try and recreate the dish last night
I know sundried tomatoes are considered a bit retro, and not in a cool way, but I recently picked up a packet at a bargain price and was planning to throw them into a salad
Meanwhile, once the tomatoes have softened in your frying pan, add the spring onions (finely chopped), aubergine (chopped into small chunks), garlic (finely chopped) and olives (quartered)
But before it’s all barbecues and salads, let’s indulgein the comfort food of colder seasons, like this very creamy polenta with aubergineand chorizo in a rich tomatosauce
Aubergine braised in spicy tomatosauceand then smothered with Seer Moss - GarlicYogurt sauce was in my early days of blogging through a now sadly defunct blog called The Culinary Adventures of a Confessed Shakamboo, I was curious about it at the time as I was not that familiar with Afghanistan cuisine, but at the same time somewhat dismissed it as I was not overly keen on aubergines aka eggplant a key ingredient for the recipe
Aubergineand Green Peas in spicy Onion andtomatosauce, yet another curry recipe wherein amount of Onion used is relatively larger compared with the other mainingredients
Add the aubergines back to the pan. I've gone slightly over the top with the pepper theme and have included bell peppers, chilli pepper, paprika and black pepper in the recipe
