Chicken Marbella

BRIEF HISTORY OF CHICKEN MARBELLA-THE SILVER PALATE

It all started in the early 1970’s, Julee Rosso who worked at an advertising company as at that time met Sheila Lukins who was a caterer through a customer of hers.

They both later decided to start a business whereby meals were prepared and customers could walk in and buy themselves a plate at their comfort and that then brought about the creation of “The Silver Palate”.

It said that the restaurant was situated quite close to the central park at that time. The collaborative business grew higher and higher, offering packaged food with the company’s brand name.

In 1981, the Silver Palate Cookbook was published by the joint efforts of Lukins and Rosso and the creation of that cookbook changed cooking in America as a whole.

The chicken Marbella recipe was and still is one of the best to come out of it.

CHICKEN MARBELLA RECIPES

1. THE CLASSIC CHICKEN MARBELLA

Now we definitely can’t name any other recipes without listing the original thing first. If you want the very traditional form of preparation following the basic chicken Marbella recipe step by step then this is it Thesilverpalate.

You can substitute some of the ingredients with what you have available to you.

2. SLOW COOKE CHICKEN MARBELLA

Preparing your chicken Marbella in a slow cooker allows the taste to sink into it, although it takes a whole lot more time.

It also saves you the overnight refrigerating process so you just get your ingredients and start the cooking on the go.

This recipe by Woman’s Day is an all-time favourite of mine. The deep brown colour of the chicken and scent are just heavenly, give it a try.
