Chicken Breasts with Eggplant and Roasted Red Pepper SauceRecipe : Chicken Breasts with Eggplant and Roasted Red Pepper Sauce
Procedure :
2 red bell peppers 2 small eggplant (Italian or Chinese) 2 tablespoons olive oil -- (2 to 4) 4 skinless boneless chicken breasts halves 1 onion -- sliced 1 garlic clove -- chopped 1/4 cup red wine vinegar -- or white fresh herbs -- as noted HERBS: 1 to 2 tablespoons finely chopped fresh herbs, such as thyme or parsley. To Roast Peppers: Place the peppers on the grill or under the broiler, turning them, until charred all over, nearly black. Remove and place in a plastic bag to steam off skin. When cool enough to handle, remove charred skin and seed them. Preheat the grill or broiler. Halve the eggplant, score in 2 or 3 places, and brush with some of the oil. Place on the grill, cut side towards the heat. Turn after 5 minutes. Cook until almost soft. Add the chicken breasts and cook 3 minutes on each side, until done. Remove to a plate. Heat the remaining oil in a large frying pan until singing. Add the onion and garlic, and cook until soft. Puree the peppers and vinegar in a food processor or blender until smooth. Add the puree, eggplants, and chicken to the frying pan, and heat together, about 5 minutes. Place the chicken mixture on a platter surrounded by the eggplant and sauce. Sprinkle with the herbs.
