------
|
|
|
|
== Prep Veggies & Cook Squash ==
|
|
|
|
Dice @summer squash{1,1/4%cup}(diced into 1/4" pieces) and thinly slice @green onion{1}.
|
|
|
|
In a #large nonstick sauté pan{}, heat @olive oil{1%tbsp} over med-high. Add the squash and @salt{} and sauté for ~{4-5%minutes} until softened, then remove, set aside to cool slightly, and wipe out the pan.
|
|
|
|
== Make Chimichurri ==
|
|
|
|
Remove the pit and dice @peach{1}(diced into 1/4" pieces). Remove seeds and mince half of @jalapeño{1/2}(minced) — save remainder for another use, or use all for more heat.
|
|
|
|
Chop @cilantro{2%tbsp} and @parsley{2%tbsp} together.
|
|
|
|
In a #medium bowl{}, combine the herbs, @red wine vinegar{1,1/2%tbsp}, @garlic{1/2%tsp}, jalapeño to taste, and @olive oil{3%tbsp}. Stir in the diced peach and season to taste with @salt{} and @pepper{}.
|
|
|
|
== Cook Chicken ==
|
|
|
|
In the same #large nonstick sauté pan{} used for squash, heat @olive oil{1%tbsp} over med-high. Pat @chicken breasts{2} dry and season with @salt{} and @pepper{}.
|
|
|
|
Add chicken to the pan and cook ~{6-9%minutes} per side, or until done. Remove, wipe out the pan, and keep warm.
|
|
|
|
== Make Batter & Cook Fritters ==
|
|
|
|
Line a #plate with a paper towel.
|
|
|
|
In a #large mixing bowl{}, mix @egg{1}, @olive oil{2%tbsp}, and @water{1/3%cup}. Add the Fritter Starter — @cornmeal{3/4%cup}, @flour{1/2%cup}, @sugar{2%tsp}, @baking powder{1%tsp}, and @table salt{1%tsp} — and stir to combine. Stir in the cooked squash and sliced green onion.
|
|
|
|
In the same #large nonstick sauté pan{} used for the chicken, heat @olive oil{2%tbsp} over medium. Scoop 1/4 cup batter into the heated oil to form fritters and cook ~{3-4%minutes} per side, working in batches and adding more oil as needed. Transfer to the paper-towel-lined plate.
|
|
|
|
Slice the cooked chicken.
|
|
|
|
== Garnish & Gather ==
|
|
|
|
Divide the squash fritters and sliced chicken between plates, then drizzle generously with the peach chimichurri.
