Pui Cu Mazare Si Menta (chicken With Peas And Mint)
articol scris de Brindusa blog brindusascheaua.blogspot.com
Astept primavara. Am obosit sa indur iarna, zapada, frigul, bocancii... M-am gandit ca niste mazare verde ar fi tocmai buna ca sa aduca un damf de primavara. De data asta am facut ceva mai deosebit: Am pus niste menta. Ii multumesc lui Mary pentru aceasta idee.
Ingrediente pentru 4 portii:
- 400 g piept de pui, taiat cuburi mai mari
- 500 g mazare verde, congelata
- 2 cepe mari, tocate
- 3 linguri ulei de porumb
- 1 lingurita menta uscata sau 2 lingurite menta proaspata
- 200 ml apa
- 50 ml vin alb
- sare, piper dupa gust
Cum se face:
- Incalzeste uleiul intr-o cratita. Pune carnea si prajeste-o putin pe toate partile.
- Adauga ceapa, Amesteca
- Lasa 3-4 minute la foc mediu, ca sa se inmoaie ceapa.
- Adauga mazarea congelata si amesteca putin
- Pune sare, piper, menta uscata (daca folosesti proaspata, se pune la sfarsit) si apa. Pune capacul si fierbe la foc mic 15 minute.
- Adauga vinul si mai fierbe 5 minute. Daca folosesti menta proaspata, pune-o acum
- Potriveste de sare si piper.
- Serveste mancarea calda, cu salata de castraveti in saramura.
I am sooo waiting for spring. I am tired to endure winter, snow, cold weather, boots ... I thought it would be nice to have some green peas and to bring a whiff of spring. This time I did something special: I put some mint. Thank you Mary for this idea.
