CHICKEN, THREE WAYS



Chicken, Three Ways image

Provided by Food Network

Categories     main-dish

Time 5h30m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 26

2 (3-pound) chickens
2 carrots, chopped
2 stalks celery, chopped
1 onion, quartered
2 garlic cloves
2 bay leaves
10 black peppercorns
1 cup white wine
4 chicken breasts, boneless and skinless* (See Cook's Note)
Kosher salt
Freshly ground black pepper
1 tablespoon unsalted butter
8 sprigs fresh thyme
1/4 cup white wine
2 garlic cloves, halved
1 tablespoon chicken broth
4 cups chopped, cooked chicken
1/2 cup finely chopped celery
1/2 cup finely chopped onion
1 tablespoon finely chopped celery leaves
1 tablespoon chopped parsley leaves
2 tablespoons mayonnaise
1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
1 teaspoon white wine vinegar
Kosher salt
Freshly ground black pepper

Steps:

  • To begin: Cut the breasts from the chickens and refrigerate them until you are ready to use them.
  • For the Broth: Put the rest of the 2 chickens into a large pot. Cover them with cold water. Bring the water to a simmer over medium-high heat, but do not let it boil. Skim off any fat and scum that rises to the surface. Once the water is simmering add the carrot, celery, onion, garlic, bay leaves, peppercorns, and white wine. Simmer slowly for 3 to 4 hours. Remove the chicken from the pot, set it aside to cool, cover, and refrigerate it. Strain the broth through a fine mesh strainer and refrigerate until ready for use. The broth can also be frozen.
  • For the Poached Breasts: Season the breasts with salt and pepper. Place each breast into a small resealable plastic bag. Divide the butter, thyme, wine, garlic, and chicken broth evenly into the bags. Press out all of the air and seal the bags tightly. Keep refrigerated until ready to cook.
  • Bring a large pot of water to a boil over high heat, then reduce the heat and bring it to a simmer. Add the bags to the water and submerge them; don't let the plastic catch the rim of the pan or they will melt. Poach them, stirring occasionally, until the chicken is firm and cooked through, about 10 minutes. Remove the bags from the water and serve the chicken immediately, using the liquid in the bags as the sauce.
  • For the Salad: Pick the meat from the cooled chicken, discarding the skin and bones. Cut the meat into small pieces and put them into a bowl. Add the celery, onion, celery leaves, parsley, mayonnaise, mustard, vinegar, and salt and pepper, to taste. Mix until everything is evenly blended. Serve with salad leaves or make a sandwich.

Tips:

  • Choose fresh chicken livers: Look for livers that are plump, smooth, and have a deep red or purplish-brown color. Avoid livers that are slimy, discolored, or have an off odor.
  • Clean the chicken livers thoroughly: Rinse the livers under cold water and remove any connective tissue or veins. You can also soak the livers in milk for 30 minutes to help remove any bitterness.
  • Cook the chicken livers properly: Chicken livers should be cooked until they are just cooked through, as overcooking can make them tough and dry. The internal temperature of the livers should reach 165°F (74°C) when measured with a meat thermometer.
  • Season the chicken livers well: Chicken livers have a mild flavor, so they need to be seasoned well to be tasty. You can use a variety of seasonings, such as salt, pepper, garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, or chili powder.
  • Serve the chicken livers immediately: Chicken livers are best served immediately after they are cooked, as they can become tough and dry if they are allowed to sit for too long.
