Spiced Chicken Wrap

Let's start with the first chicken recipe from Gordon Ramsay's Ultimate Cookery Course: the spiced chicken wrap. This dish is full of flavors and perfect for a quick and satisfying meal. To make the spiced chicken wrap, you'll need a marinated chicken breast, tortilla wraps, and a variety of spices.

To marinate the chicken, Gordon Ramsay recommends a combination of paprika, cumin, coriander, and garlic. This gives the chicken a rich and aromatic flavor. After marinating the chicken, grill it until it's cooked through and slice it into thin strips.

Next, warm up the tortilla wraps in a pan or microwave. Spread a generous amount of mayonnaise or yogurt sauce on the wraps, and add the sliced chicken, along with some lettuce, sliced tomatoes, and onions. Feel free to add other toppings of your choice, such as avocado or cheese.

Roll up the wrap tightly, tucking in the sides as you go, and enjoy the delicious combination of flavors in every bite. The spiced chicken wrap is perfect for a quick lunch or dinner, and you can easily customize it to suit your taste preferences.

Easy Chicken Pastilla

Another fantastic chicken recipe from Gordon Ramsay's Ultimate Cookery Course is the easy chicken pastilla. This Moroccan-inspired dish is a true delight and perfect for those special occasions when you want to impress your guests.

For the chicken pastilla, you'll need some boneless chicken thighs, phyllo pastry sheets, almonds, cinnamon, icing sugar, and fresh herbs like cilantro or parsley.

Start by seasoning the chicken thighs with salt, pepper, and ground cinnamon. Brown the chicken in a hot pan until it's cooked through and set it aside to cool. Once cooled, shred the chicken into small pieces.

In a separate pan, toast the almonds until they turn golden and fragrant. Remove from the heat and let them cool before chopping them.

Now comes the fun part! Layer the phyllo pastry sheets, brushing each sheet with melted butter before adding the next one. In between the layers, sprinkle a mixture of ground cinnamon and icing sugar for a touch of sweetness.

Spread the shredded chicken and chopped almonds over the top phyllo layer. Fold the edges of the pastry inward to enclose the filling, creating a neat package. Brush the top with melted butter and bake in the oven until the pastry turns golden and crispy.

Once baked, remove the chicken pastilla from the oven and let it rest for a few minutes. Dust some icing sugar and ground cinnamon on top and garnish with fresh herbs. The combination of savory and sweet flavors in the easy chicken pastilla is truly exceptional and will leave your taste buds wanting more.

Sichuan Chicken Thighs

If you're a fan of spicy food, you'll love Gordon Ramsay's Sichuan chicken thighs. This dish is packed with flavor and has just the right amount of heat.

To make the Sichuan chicken thighs, you'll need chicken thighs, Sichuan peppercorns, soy sauce, honey, garlic, ginger, and a splash of rice vinegar.

Start by marinating the chicken thighs with a mixture of soy sauce, honey, minced garlic, minced ginger, and ground Sichuan peppercorns. Let the chicken marinate for about 30 minutes to allow the flavors to penetrate the meat.

Heat up a pan with some oil and add the marinated chicken thighs. Cook the chicken until it's browned and cooked through. Make sure to reserve the marinade.

Once the chicken is cooked, remove it from the pan and set it aside. In the same pan, add the reserved marinade and a splash of rice vinegar. Cook the marinade until it thickens into a delicious sauce.

Return the chicken thighs to the pan and coat them with the sauce. Let it simmer for a few minutes on low heat to absorb the flavors.

Serve the Sichuan chicken thighs with steamed rice and garnish with chopped green onions and toasted sesame seeds. The combination of spicy, sweet, and savory flavors in this dish is absolutely irresistible.

Chicken with Garlic & Chestnut Stuffing

Last but not least, Gordon Ramsay's chicken with garlic & chestnut stuffing is a classic and comforting dish that's perfect for a special Sunday roast.

For this recipe, you'll need a whole chicken, chestnuts (roasted and peeled), garlic cloves, fresh thyme, breadcrumbs, chicken stock, and butter.

To prepare the stuffing, mix together the roasted and peeled chestnuts, minced garlic, fresh thyme leaves, breadcrumbs, and a knob of melted butter. Season with salt and pepper to taste.

Carefully loosen the chicken skin by gently sliding your fingers underneath it, being careful not to tear it. Stuff the chestnut mixture under the skin, spreading it evenly over the breast and thighs.

Truss the chicken to keep the stuffing in place and season the skin with salt and pepper. Place the chicken in a roasting pan and cook it in the oven at a high temperature for the first 20 minutes to crisp up the skin. Then, reduce the temperature and continue roasting until the chicken is cooked through.

Once the chicken is cooked, remove it from the oven and let it rest for a few minutes before carving. The chicken with garlic & chestnut stuffing is incredibly flavorful and the stuffing adds a delicious nuttiness to every bite.

Serve the chicken with your favorite vegetables and gravy for a complete and satisfying meal.
