Easy Dakdoritang (Spicy Korean Chicken Stew)

chicken

onion

(500 grams) potatoes

(100 grams) carrot

water (anchovy stock, dashi,

green onion and chili pepper (sliced)

sesame seeds (optional,

tbsp Gochugaru (Korean chili flakes) (or to taste)

soy sauce

garlic (minced)

tbsp honey (or sugar)

tbsp Gochujang (Korean chili paste)

tsp black pepper

[Optional] Bring a large pot of water to a boil. Parboil the chicken for 2 minutes, rinse under cold water, and pat dry. This process will remove the smell, excess oil, and impurities from the chicken.

Combine all sauce ingredients in a bowl. In a large pot over medium heat, add chicken and onion and pour the sauce on top. Toss well to coat and cook for 2 minutes.

Add water and stir to combine. Cover and boil for about 15 minutes, stirring occasionally. Stir in potatoes and carrots, cover, and cook for another 10 minutes.

Remove cover, add green onion and chili pepper, and cook for an additional 5 minutes, or until the stew is thickened to your liking.

Garnish with sesame seeds and fresh green onions if you prefer, and serve over a bowl of steamed rice. Enjoy!

The classic Italian 'hunter's stew' gets a healthy makeover, with low-fat chicken breasts, prosciutto and a rich herby tomato sauce

Lighter chicken cacciatore

olive oil

prosciutto, fat removed, chopped

onion,

garlic cloves, finely chopped

sage

rosemary

chicken breasts

dry white wine

can plum tomatoes

tomato purée

chestnut mushrooms, quartered

parsley,

Heat the oil in a large non-stick frying pan. Tip in the prosciutto and fry for about 2 mins until crisp. Remove with a slotted spoon, letting any fat drain back into the pan, and set aside. Put the onion, garlic and herbs in the pan and fry for 3-4 mins.

Spread the onion out in the pan, then lay the chicken breasts on top. Season with pepper and fry for 5 mins over a medium heat, turning the chicken once, until starting to brown on both sides and the onion is caramelising on the bottom of the pan. Remove the chicken and set aside on a plate. Raise the heat, give it a quick stir and, when sizzling, pour in the wine and let it bubble for 2 mins to reduce slightly.

Lower the heat to medium, return the prosciutto to the pan, then stir in the tomatoes (breaking them up with your spoon), tomato purée and mushrooms. Spoon 4 tbsp of water into the empty tomato can, swirl it around, then pour it into the pan. Cover and simmer for 15-20 mins or until the sauce has thickened and reduced slightly, then return the chicken to the pan and cook, uncovered, for about 15 mins or until the chicken is cooked through. Season and scatter over the parsley to serve.

Healthy chicken breasts and butter beans get a flavour boost from a little bit of cooking chorizo and red wine. Green beans are excellent when in season, but you can also use broccoli, green cabbage or kale on the side.

Easy Chicken Stew

The best chicken and dumplings recipe made completely from scratch with a rich stew and fluffy dumplings. Make it a quick meal by using rotisserie chicken!

Homemade Chicken and Dumplings

unsalted butter

yellow onion (finely chopped)

carrots

celery (finely chopped)

garlic (finely minced)

all-purpose flour

heavy cream

salt

black pepper

thyme

peas

chicken (diced small)

parsley

baking powder

unsalted butter (melted)

milk

Place the chicken broth in a small saucepan and warm over low heat.

In a large pot or Dutch oven, melt the butter over medium-low heat. Add the onion, carrot, and celery and saute until the onion is translucent, 10 to 15 minutes. Add the garlic and cook for an additional 1 minute. Add the flour and cook for 2 minutes, stirring constantly.

Slowly add the hot chicken broth, stirring constantly, and simmer over low heat until thickened, about 1 minute. Stir in the heavy cream, salt, pepper, thyme and bay leaves. Adjust the heat to maintain a slow simmer while you prepare the dumplings.

Make the Dumplings: In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, and salt. Add the melted butter and milk and stir with a rubber spatula until the dough just comes together.

Stir the chicken, peas, and parsley into the pot. Drop the dumpling mixture by large spoonfuls of dough over the surface of the chicken stew. Cover and cook for 15 minutes. Check the dumplings with a toothpick to see if they’re done; if they are still doughy in the middle, flip them over, cover and simmer for an additional 5 minutes. Serve immediately.

This quick and light chicken stew is an easy and comforting midweek meal. It's packed with vegetables and fairly low in calories, so it's healthy too.
