Easy Green Peppercorn Chicken

November 13, 2018 by Lovoni | Leave a Comment

Creamy, dreamy, warming, rustic – whatever cliched, comfort food adjectives you can throw at it, this Easy Green Peppercorn Chicken will stand up to the overused accolades. Serve it for a simple weeknight meal or joosh it up with some creamy mashed taters & steamed greens for a stress-free dinner party meal.

Growing up, whenever green peppercorn sauce was served with steak or chicken in our home, well I knew it was a special occasion. Whether it be for someone’s birthday, an anniversary or when mum & John threw one of their legendary dinner parties, green peppercorn sauce always seemed a little decadent, special. And I always loved it & still do. Now I make it to capture that feeling & do a little reminiscing. 

Easy Green Peppercorn Chicken

You’ll find green peppercorns in some supermarkets, Asian grocery stores, specialty food markets & online. Here’s a link for them on Amazon which is where I buy them. Once opened, store them in a jar with a screw-top lid in the fridge. They will keep for months. Add them to cream sauces to accompany steak, pork or chicken. They’re also an ingredient in some Thai recipes.

There’s just a handful of ingredients in this recipe. Sherry, garlic & green peppercorns give the sauce its distinctive flavor. Cream adds the luscious mouthfeel we all love & the parsley adds an element of vibrancy. Switch the bone-in chicken thighs for whatever protein you fancy. Serve simply with steamed green beans & mashed or roasted potatoes. Chat to you soon, oh & if you’re looking for some other fabulous chicken recipes, here are three of the most popular on Fresh Hunger: Rustic Country Chicken with Olives & Potatoes, Bacon Wrapped Chicken & Broccoli Alfredo or The Best Roast Chicken.

Finnish Mustard - move over every other mustard I’ve ever loved, this is my new favourite. The recipe is an adaptation of @tessakiros from #fallingcloudberries a cookbook I highly recommend. If a mustard can be decadent then this is it. It’s also so simple to make. 
I purged many of my cookbooks recently. I’m replacing some with cookbooks I want to cook from and will make a point of using. Beth from @oldetymemarketplace along with @downshilohroad & @myrustichouse have started a fun hashtag to encourage us to make & share recipes from our cookbooks #friendswhocookwithabook 
It’d be such fun if you joined along. I know we all have those cookbooks that sit collecting dust. Well time to use them or pitch them. Or treat yourself & buy some new ones. Finding recipes online is convenient but never the same as holding a gorgeous cookbook in your hands. 
If like me you love mustard I urge you to try this mustard recipe. It’s divine.

QUICK & EASY TIRAMISU - a quick word to anyone who QUICK & EASY TIRAMISU - a quick word to anyone who has to add whipped cream to a recipe that’s having its pic taken - never use canned cream. You know the shit in a can I’m talking about?! That stuff breaks down quickly & is total crap. You need to whip the cream yourself and, you need to stabilize it with some powdered sugar. And don’t over whip the cream. Whip 1 1/2 cups of heavy cream in a cold bowl until it’s starting to thicken, add about 1/3 - 1/2 cup powdered sugar, whip until soft peaks form & then you can make great swirls, dollops or pipe it & it’ll behave & stay looking good to have its pic taken. Perfect swirls & dollops = pretty pics. 

Meanwhile, here’s the recipe for this yummy & really easy to make dessert.

SWEET CHILI MISO SALMON & STIR-FRIED VEGGIES - who SWEET CHILI MISO SALMON & STIR-FRIED VEGGIES - who made new year’s resolution to go on a diet? God I’ve been on so many bloody diets. They work of course, as long as one stays on diet of choice. Kudos to those who do. As a mere mortal & coupled with my recipe testing, writing, styling & such I can’t, nor do I want to, eliminate whole food groups from my diet. I fail miserably at it. Then I beat myself up. And the vicious cycle goes around & around. My health - physical & mental & business are my main focuses this year. Diets are kicked to the curb along with negative self-talk. Enough already.  Wholesome foods, moving my body with exercise that makes me happy & I want to do is key. Who else feels the same? 
Here’s the link to this vibrant recipe. I really enjoyed it for dinner last night & last week. Serve it up with some steamed jasmine rice. So good.
