CHICKEN DIVAN WITH ALMONDS



Chicken Divan with Almonds image

Chicken Divan, created and served with great flourish in the Divan Parisienne Restaurant in New York's Chatham Hotel in the early twentieth century, remains one of America's most classic and delicious casseroles, a dish as appropriate to an elegant buffet as on the family supper table. In my own lifetime, the casserole was a specialty at the renowned Locke-Ober restaurant in Boston, and it was there I learned to enhance the dish by adding a few slivered almonds.

Provided by Food Network

Categories     main-dish

Time 1h15m

Yield 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 12

1 (2-pound) head broccoli, stems removed
1/4 cup (1/2 stick) butter
1/4 cup all-purpose flour
1 cup chicken broth
1 cup milk
Salt and freshly ground black pepper
1/8 teaspoon ground nutmeg
1/2 cup freshly grated Parmesan
3 tablespoons dry sherry
12 slices cooked chicken or turkey
1 cup slivered almonds
1/2 cup heavy cream

Steps:

  • Place a collapsible steamer in a large saucepan with a tight-fitting lid, pour in enough water to just reach the bottom of the steamer, and bring to a boil.
  • Break the broccoli into florets and place them in the saucepan. Steam until just tender, about 5 to 7 minutes and drain.
  • Preheat to oven to 350 degrees F. Butter a shallow 2-quart casserole and set side.
  • In a medium-size saucepan, melt the butter over moderate heat, then add the flour and stir for 1 minute. Gradually add the broth and milk and stir until thickened. Season with salt and pepper; add the nutmeg, 1/4 cup of the cheese, and the sherry. Stir until the cheese melts, and remove from the heat.
  • Arrange the broccoli in the prepared casserole in a single layer, sprinkle the remaining 1/4 cup cheese over the top, arrange the chicken slices evenly over the broccoli, and sprinkle the almonds over the top.
  • In a medium-size mixing bowl, beat the heavy cream with an electric mixer until soft peaks form, fold into the cheese sauce, pour evenly over the chicken and almonds, and bake until bubbly and golden brown, about 35 minutes.

ALMOND-CRUSTED CHICKEN



Almond-Crusted Chicken image

Chicken breasts with a crunchy breadcrumb-and-almond-sliver coating are a light and satisfying springtime entree. Serve them with Orzo with Peas and Mint and Romaine Salad with Prosciutto Crisps.

Provided by Martha Stewart

Categories     Food & Cooking     Ingredients     Meat & Poultry     Chicken     Chicken Breast Recipes

Number Of Ingredients 8

3/4 cup dry bread crumbs
Coarse salt and freshly ground pepper
2 large eggs
2 teaspoons water
2 whole boneless skinless chicken breasts (1 1/2 to 2 pounds), split
1 1/2 cups sliced almonds, broken into pieces
2 tablespoons unsalted butter
2 tablespoons canola oil

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 400 degrees. In a medium bowl, season bread crumbs with salt and pepper. Place eggs in a small bowl with 2 teaspoons water, and beat lightly. Dip chicken in egg, wiping away excess with your fingers, and dip in bread-crumb mixture. Dredge until lightly coated. Dip in egg again, and coat thoroughly with almonds.
  • Heat butter and oil in a 12-inch ovenproof skillet over medium heat. Saute chicken until nicely browned, about 3 minutes, and turn over. Cook 1 minute more; then transfer pan to oven, and bake until chicken is cooked through, about 10 minutes.

Tips:

  • Choose the right chicken. Boneless, skinless chicken breasts or thighs are the best choices for this recipe. If you use chicken with bones, you'll need to cook it for longer.
  • Use a good quality almond butter. Almond butter is the key ingredient in this recipe, so make sure you use a good quality brand. Look for a brand that is made with 100% almonds and doesn't have any added ingredients.
  • Don't overcook the chicken. Chicken is very easy to overcook, so be careful not to cook it for too long. The chicken is done when it is cooked through and no longer pink in the center.
  • Serve the casserole hot. This casserole is best served hot out of the oven. You can also make it ahead of time and reheat it before serving.

Conclusion:

Almond Chicken Casserole is a delicious and easy dinner recipe that the whole family will love. It's made with simple ingredients that you probably already have on hand, and it can be ready in just 30 minutes. So next time you're looking for a quick and easy weeknight meal, give this recipe a try.
