From Chef Hidaka of Ristorante Acquapazza, here's an easy-to-make chicken dish for your home. Enjoy nutrient-rich broccoli as both a side and a key ingredient in a fantastic curry-flavored sauce. This vibrant dish is sure to please the whole family.

Ingredients

Main Ingredients (2 servings)

  • Chicken thighs 2 pieces
  • Broccoli 1 large head
  • Onion 1/2

Seasonings

  • Extra Virgin Olive Oil (to taste)
  • Salt (to taste)
  • Curry powder (to taste)

Steps

  1. Cut off the dried parts of the broccoli.
  2. Trim away the tough outer part of the broccoli stalk.
  3. Separate the broccoli florets into portions for grilling and for the sauce. Cut the broccoli for the sauce into small pieces.
  4. Soak the broccoli in water to remove any potential insects. Adding vinegar can help dislodge them.
  5. Cut the broccoli stalk and chop it further into smaller pieces for the sauce.
  6. Slice the onion against the grain. This helps to bring out its sweetness and soften it for blending later.
  7. Remove any excess sinew from the chicken thighs.
  8. Lightly heat Extra Virgin Olive Oil in a frying pan and add the sliced onion.
  9. Lightly sauté the onion and sprinkle with a little salt.
  10. Add water or hot water to the sautéed onion and reduce.
  11. Add the broccoli for the sauce to the simmering mixture, cover, and cook. The cooking liquid is also part of the sauce, helping to retain the broccoli's nutrients.
  12. Lightly season both sides of the chicken thighs with salt.
  13. Add a little Extra Virgin Olive Oil to another frying pan and start searing the chicken thighs skin-side down.
  14. Let the covered broccoli steam for 5 to 6 minutes.
  15. Drain off any excess fat rendered from the chicken.
  16. In the same pan where the chicken is cooking, use the empty space to grill the broccoli for serving.
  17. Once the liquid from the broccoli for the sauce has reduced, add a little water and steam-braise.
  18. Once the chicken thighs are browned, flip them and cook the other side.
  19. Transfer the broccoli for the sauce and the onion, along with their cooking liquid, into a food processor and blend into a coarse puree.
  20. Remove the chicken and grilled broccoli from the pan.
  21. Return the broccoli sauce to the pan with the chicken juices, and season lightly with salt to taste.
  22. Plate the chicken, add the grilled broccoli as a side, and pour the broccoli sauce over everything.
  23. Finish by sprinkling curry powder over the dish. The combination of grilled broccoli and curry powder is particularly delicious.
