Make the goodness and flavor of summer-fresh cherries last all year long with tart chewy dried cherries—perfect for cooking or out-of-hand snacking.
Green Tea Asian Chicken
Black tea can be substituted for green tea and flank steak subbed for the chicken; but don’t use black tea with the chicken as the tea tannins will stain the chicken a dark color.
6 servings
This recipe is perfect with chicken thighs, but you can use chicken breasts as well.
Ingredients
-
2 tablespoons sugar
-
3/4 cup hot brewed green tea
-
1 teaspoon ground coriander
-
1/2 teaspoon salt
-
1/2 teaspoon coarsely ground black pepper
-
2 teaspoons peeled and finely chopped fresh ginger

-
Fresh cilantro and mint, chopped (optional)

Arugula or spinach (optional)
Instructions
- Stir sugar into tea while hot; let cool. Combine tea with coriander, salt, pepper, ginger, garlic and 2 tablespoons canola oil. Place chicken in a large zip-top plastic bag and pour in half of marinade. Seal and let chill 1 to 6 hours.
- Heat remaining marinade over medium high heat about 4 minutes, or until reduced by one-third.

With a wee bit of heat from the Mexican tomatoes, this is a nice change from the trustworthy, but tired, basil usually found in tomato soup. A bit of cheese swirled into the hot soup tops it off.
