4 1/4 pounds skinless, boneless chicken breast halves
1 teaspoon garlic powder
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper
1/8 teaspoon paprika
1/2 teaspoon ground black pepper
4 sweet potatoes, peel, sweet cut into 2 inch chunks
Slice chicken into 4 pieces. Slice chicken into 3/4 inch strips. Place strips in a large bowl. Stir seasoning from chicken, garlic powder, salt, cayenne pepper, paprika and ground black pepper. Transfer chicken to 8 large ramekins (Pike, Russe or other sizes), and add enough water to cover.
Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
Rub chicken skin side down into a large bowl. Season with tomato paste. Place a portion of chicken into each ramekin.
Place chicken in prepared dish. Spread tomato sauce over chicken.
Rotate ramekins, dicing as necessary, to spread chicken. Place chicken over chicken and top with tomato mixture.
Bake uncovered at 350 degrees F (175 degrees C) over 1 1 hour, or until chicken is cooked through (bone will be golden).
I made this as the recipe directed and it was delish! I only marinated the chicken overnight uncovered as I do my turkey as per Chef Michael Oliver. So good, as were the leftovers! I took half of the leftover orange and baked it in the cavity of the chicken. Definitely making this again!
Easy and amazing. This recipe was exactly what I had in mind when I made my quinoa. It seemed like a good idea at the time, but once I got the hang of it, it was a pain in the butt to make. I might cut back on the salt a little bit next time, but for now, it's great for grain and vegans.
