One-Pan Taste of Portugal Chicken Stew

One-Pan Taste of Portugal Chicken Stew

Indulge in a saucy delight with this one-pan comfort meal using our delicious Taste of Portugal spice blend. Marinated chicken takes center stage, infusing rich flavors throughout.

From the warmth Indian coriander to the zing of Piri Piri chile, this dish has a strong flavor base. A hint of smoky intrigue from smoked paprika and a dash of red wine-vinegar powder add depth. Aromatic garlic and bay leaf join forces, while citric acid and white pepper harmonize for balance.

Pair with crusty bread, rice, or pasta or keep it as is for a gluten-free stew. A satisfying dish that gets even better as leftovers—easy, hearty, and oh-so-delicious.

Ingredients

  • 1.5 lb boneless skinless chicken breast, thinly sliced
  • 2 tablespoons extra virgin olive
  • 3 tablespoons Taste of Portugal
  • 2 teaspoons Pacific Flake Sea Salt
  • 2 tablespoon lemon juice (1 lemon)
  • 1 cup white onion, thinly sliced
  • 1 red bell pepper, thinly sliced
  • 1 15 oz can chickpeas (drained)
  • 14 oz roasted crushed tomato can
  • 1 ½ cups chicken broth
  • 2 tablespoons fresh parsley, chopped

Directions

  1. Put chicken, olive oil, Taste of Portugal spice, lemon juice, and 1 teaspoon of salt in a Ziploc bag. Mix well and place in refrigerator for at least one hour. Overnight is best!
  2. When ready to cook, heat a large skillet on medium high heat.
  3. Lift the chicken pieces from the marinade and shake off any excess marinade. Pan-fry the breasts for 3 minutes on medium heat without moving. Flip the chicken and cook for another 3 minutes and lower the heat to medium.
  4. Remove the chicken from the pan and place on a dish on the side.
  5. In the same pan where you cooked the chicken, add the onion and bell pepper. Sauté until wilted and translucent. Add the chickpeas, roasted tomato, chicken broth, and 1 remaining teaspoon of salt to the pan and bring the mixture to a simmer.
  6. Transfer the cooked chicken back to the skillet with the vegetables and chickpea mixture. Cover the skillet with a lid and let it simmer for 3-5 minutes, ensuring the chicken is fully cooked. The internal temperature should reach 165°F.
  7. Before serving, sprinkle the dish with freshly chopped parsley. Serve the saucy dish alongside crusty bread, rice, or pasta.
