Tabaka with Pesto Rub and Sun-Dried Tomato Sauce
Tabaka with Pesto Rub and Sun-Dried Tomato Sauce is a delicious and flavorful dish that is perfect for any occasion. This dish is a combination of juicy and tender chicken, coated with a delicious pesto rub and served with a tangy sun-dried tomato sauce.
To make this dish, you will need the following ingredients per serving:
- 1 whole chicken, butterflied
- 1 tablespoon of pesto
- 1 tablespoon of olive oil
- Salt and pepper to taste
- 1/4 cup of sun-dried tomatoes
- 1/4 cup of chicken broth
- 1 tablespoon of butter
To start, preheat your oven to 400°F. In a small bowl, mix together the pesto and olive oil. Rub the mixture all over the chicken, making sure to coat it evenly. Season the chicken with salt and pepper to taste.
Next, heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the chicken to the skillet, skin side down, and cook for 5-7 minutes or until the skin is golden brown and crispy. Flip the chicken over and cook for an additional 5-7 minutes.
Transfer the chicken to a baking dish and bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F.
While the chicken is baking, prepare the sun-dried tomato sauce. In a small saucepan, combine the sun-dried tomatoes, chicken broth, and butter. Bring the mixture to a simmer and cook for 5-7 minutes or until the sauce has thickened slightly.
Once the chicken is done, remove it from the oven and let it rest for 5-10 minutes before serving. Serve the chicken with the sun-dried tomato sauce on the side.
This dish is a perfect combination of savory and tangy flavors. The pesto rub adds a delicious herbaceous flavor to the chicken, while the sun-dried tomato sauce provides a tangy and slightly sweet contrast. The chicken is juicy and tender, with a crispy skin that adds a satisfying crunch.
Tabaka with Pesto Rub and Sun-Dried Tomato Sauce is a perfect dish for any occasion, whether it's a family dinner or a special occasion. It's easy to make and packed with flavor, making it a crowd-pleaser every time.
