My hometown newspaper (The Orlando Sentinel) finally published this, my favorite chicken dish ever, in their "Thought you'd never ask" column. There are copycats on Zaar, but this is the actual recipe, as given by Carrabba's. Not for the dieter, but a divine dish perfect for company and easy to throw together!

Time 30m

Yield 2 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 12

Ingredients

2 boneless skinless chicken breasts
kosher salt, to taste
fresh ground pepper, to taste
olive oil
4 ounces goat cheese
6 sun-dried tomatoes, chopped
2 -4 tablespoons fresh basil, chopped
4 teaspoons onions, minced
4 teaspoons garlic, minced
8 tablespoons butter, divided
1/2 cup white wine
4 tablespoons fresh lemon juice

Steps:

Brush chicken on both sides with olive oil, season to taste with Kosher salt and cracked pepper.
Grill chicken until done (internal temp of 165F) - prepare lemon butter sauce while chicken is grilling.
Sautee onion and garlic in 2 Tbps butter until soft and fragrant.
Add white wine and lemon juice, reduce heat to medium-low and simmer 10 minutes to reduce.
Add remaining 6 Tbsp butter, a little at a time, until it melts and mixture is emulsified.
Add chopped sun-dried tomatoes and basil, heat until hot (but do not overheat or sauce may break).
Top nearly-done chicken breasts with 2 oz each of the goat cheese until cheese warms and softens.
To serve, spoon lemon butter sauce over chicken breasts.
Enjoy! I serve this dish with pasta tossed in butter or olive oil (the delicious lemon butter sauce will perfect it), garlic mashed potatoes and a green salad -- yummmm!

Tips:

To ensure your chicken is cooked evenly, use a meat thermometer to check that the internal temperature has reached 165°F (74°C) before removing it from the heat.
If you don't have a meat thermometer, you can also check that the chicken is cooked by cutting into it. The juices should run clear, with no pink in the center.
To prevent the chicken from drying out, marinate it for at least 30 minutes before cooking. This will help to keep the chicken moist and flavorful.
If you don't have time to marinate the chicken, you can also brine it for a few hours. This will help to tenderize the chicken and keep it moist.
To get a crispy skin on your chicken, make sure to pat it dry before cooking. This will help the skin to brown and crisp up.
You can use any type of pasta that you like for this recipe. Some good options include spaghetti, penne, or rotini.
If you don't have heavy cream, you can substitute it with milk or half-and-half.
To make the sauce even creamier, you can add a tablespoon of butter to the pan before adding the heavy cream.
Garnish the dish with fresh parsley or basil before serving.

Conclusion:

Carrabba's Chicken Gratella is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for a weeknight meal. The chicken is tender and flavorful, and the creamy sauce is rich and decadent. This dish is sure to be a hit with your family and friends.
