	R8chreid / All my dishes 1 year, 1 month ago This dish is a fabulous way to serve chicken over rice with out finding yourself stuck yet again in a cream of mushroom rut. I adapted it from a Crawfish Etouffee recipe that I wanted to try out of the blue but didn't want to make a trip to the store.... More Prep:20m Cook:60m Servings:6	R8chreid

Ingredients

3-4 Tbsp Bacon Fat

1 1/2 cups miced onion

1 cup minced celery

3/4 cup minced green bell pepper

2 tsp miced garlic (more or less to taste, I like more!)

1 Tbsp mild paprika

1/4 tsp ground white pepper

1/4 tsp ground black pepper

1/4 tsp ground cayenne

1/4 cup all purpose flour

2 cups chicken broth

2 lbs chicken breast, cut into 1 inch pieces

1 can minced clams with broth

3 Tbsp unsalted butter

1 cup thinly sliced scallions; white and green portions

1/4 cup basil chiffonade

2 Tbsp chopped flat leaf parsley

Directions

Heat bacon in a dutch oven over medium heat.

Add onion and saute over med heat, stirring frequently for about 6 minutes. Add the celery, bell pepper and garlic; cover pan and cook over low heat, stirring occasionally until vegetables are tender, about 10 minutes. Add the paprika, white pepper, black pepper and cayenne pepper. Saute stirring constantly, until aromatic, about 1 minute.

Sprinkle the flour over the vegetables and continue to cook, stirring constantly, until the mixture is thick and pasty, about 3 minutes. Add the broth and stir well to work out any lumps and add the the minced clams with their broth. Bring to a simmer over medium heat and add chicken. Cover the pot and cook over low heat, stirring frequently until chicken is cooked through and tender, about 40 minutes. If the sauce is too thin remove lid and allow to reduce 10 minutes.

Serve over steaming hot basmati rice.

I like the addition of three peppers in this recipe. Each lends a subtle flavor of their own.
Wonderful!
