VELVET CHICKEN BREAST WITH MUSTARD SAUCE



Velvet Chicken Breast With Mustard Sauce image

Cooking chicken breasts can be tricky, especially the "skinless-boneless" kind. No matter if they are pan-fried or grilled, they are apt to be dry if left to cook even a minute too long. This recipe borrows a Chinese technique called velveting that guarantees a moist chicken breast. A simple marinade made with egg white and cornstarch is the solution. Usually the chicken is cut into strips or cubes, but small chicken breasts or cutlets can be prepared the same way for Western-style dishes. Here, an assertive mustard sauce pairs nicely with the tender meat. Serve with boiled potatoes and crisp watercress, or stir-fried spinach.

Categories     dinner, lunch, main course

Time 1h

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 13

4 small skinless-boneless chicken breasts, about 6 ounces each
Salt and pepper
2 egg whites (about 4 tablespoons)
4 tablespoons cornstarch
2 tablespoons Dijon mustard
2 tablespoons whole-grain Dijon mustard
1 teaspoon dried mustard
1 tablespoon grated horseradish
1/2 cup crème fraîche
1 cup chicken broth
3 tablespoons melted butter or vegetable oil
1 teaspoon roughly chopped thyme leaves
2 tablespoons snipped chives

Steps:

  • Trim chicken breasts to a uniform size, shape and thickness; they should be about 1/2 inch thick. (If using larger breasts, slice them into 1/2-inch-thick cutlets.) Season generously on both sides with salt and pepper.
  • Velvet the chicken: In a medium-size mixing bowl, whisk egg whites until frothy, then whisk in cornstarch until lump-free. Add chicken breasts and coat well with cornstarch mixture, then cover and marinate for 30 minutes. (Chicken may also be marinated several hours ahead and refrigerated.)
  • Meanwhile in a small mixing bowl, stir together Dijon mustard, whole-grain mustard, dried mustard, horseradish and crème fraîche. Set aside.
  • Put butter or oil in a skillet over medium heat. Lay chicken breasts in the pan and sauté very lightly for 30 seconds a side without browning. Remove breasts and blot on paper towels. Discard remaining oil and wipe pan.
  • Return skillet to stove and add mustard and crème fraîche mixture and chicken broth. Whisk together to make a thin sauce and bring to a gentle simmer. Add breasts and simmer for 1 minute, then turn breasts over, cover pan and simmer for 2 minutes. Turn off heat and leave covered for 1 or 2 minutes more, until meat is firm to the touch.
  • Transfer breasts to a warm platter. Bring sauce to a boil, add chopped thyme and reduce until slightly thickened. Spoon sauce over breasts, sprinkle with chives and serve.

PAN-ROASTED CHICKEN WITH CREAMY MUSTARD SAUCE



Pan-Roasted Chicken with Creamy Mustard Sauce image

Provided by Daphne Brogdon

Categories     main-dish

Time 1h45m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 15

1 cup beef broth
1/2 cup white wine
2 1/2 tablespoons dry mustard powder
2 tablespoons Worcestershire sauce
2 cloves garlic, chopped, plus 2 cloves, smashed
1/2 medium onion, chopped
Salt and fresh ground pepper
4 chicken quarters (thigh and drumstick attached)
3 tablespoons canola or vegetable oil
4 tablespoons butter
1 cup half-and-half
1 sprig rosemary
2 teaspoons cornstarch
1 tablespoon whole-grain mustard
Juice of 1/2 lemon

Steps:

  • In a large resealable bag, combine the beef broth, white wine, 1 tablespoon of the mustard powder, Worcestershire sauce, chopped garlic, onions and some salt and pepper. Add the chicken quarters to the bag, seal well, and shake a bit to coat the chicken in the marinade. Marinate in the refrigerator for at least 1 hour, or up to overnight.
  • Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F
  • Heat the oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Remove the chicken from the marinade and pat dry with paper towels; reserve the marinade. Add the chicken, skin side down, to the skillet and cook until nicely brown, 5 minutes. Flip, and brown on the reverse side, another 4 minutes. Lower the heat to medium-low and add the butter and the smashed garlic to the pan. Cook for 1 minute, basting the chicken with the melted butter.
  • Transfer the skillet to the oven and roast until the chicken reaches an internal temperature of 170 degrees F, measured at the thickest part of the thigh, 10 to 12 minutes. Remove the chicken to a plate and let rest, loosely cover, for 5 minutes.
  • Heat the half-and-half and rosemary in a small saucepan over low heat. Pour off all but about 2 tablespoons of the oil from the skillet the chicken was cooked in. Place the skillet over medium heat and deglaze the pan with half of the reserved marinade, scraping up any browned bit from the bottom of the pan with a wooden spoon. Cook for 2 minutes, to reduce. Strain into the heated half-and-half and remove the rosemary sprig. In a small bowl, mix together the cornstarch and 2 tablespoons cold water. Whisk the cornstarch slurry into the half-and-half, then whisk in the remaining 1 1/2 tablespoons mustard powder, the whole-grain mustard and the lemon juice. Season the sauce with a salt and pepper to taste. Bring to a simmer and cook, stirring occasionally, until the sauce coats the back of a spoon. Pour some of the sauce over the chicken and serve the rest on the side.

CHICKEN BREASTS WITH BRANDIED MUSTARD CREAM SAUCE



Chicken Breasts With Brandied Mustard Cream Sauce image

I think this was from the Commissary Cookbook but I'm not sure now. This recipe states: The piquant, mustard-tinged sauce is especially good and would be equally at home on sautéed veal, calf's liver, or fish." Time doesn't include clarifying the butter.

Provided by Oolala

Categories     Chicken Breast

Time 30m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 13

4 boneless skinless chicken breast halves
1/2 cup flour
1 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon pepper
1/4 cup butter, clarified (see note below)
2 teaspoons shallots, minced
1/2 cup dry vermouth
2 tablespoons brandy
5 teaspoons Dijon mustard
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon pepper
1 cup heavy cream
2 teaspoons parsley, minced

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 200°F.
  • Note: to clarify butter: Put the butter in a stainless steel bowl in a 200 degree oven. After 1 hour, skim off the crust on top. Put the bowl in the refrigerator. When the butter has re solidified, turn it out of the bowl. Scrape off and discard the white solid layer of milk solids (this is what burns during frying). Wrap and refrigerate the yellow layer of clarified butter until needed. One pound of butter yields about 14 oz. of clarified butter.
  • Mix the flour with the 1 teaspoon each of salt and of pepper.
  • Dredge the chicken in the seasoned flour and shake off the excess.
  • Heat the clarified butter in a skillet and add the chicken and sauté over medium heat for 5 minutes. Turn the chicken and sauté for 3-5 more minutes or until just done.
  • Remove from the skillet and keep warm in the oven.
  • Discard any butter left in the pan.
  • Add the shallots, vermouth, and brandy to the pan; turn the heat to high and reduce the liquid to 3 tablespoons while stirring to scrape up any browned bits.
  • Whisk in the mustard. Add the salt, pepper, and cream and cook over medium-high heat for 2-3 minutes, stirring occasionally, until mixture is the consistency of a light gravy.
  • Transfer the chicken from the oven to dinner plates, mask with the sauce, dust with the parsley and serve at once.

CHICKEN BREASTS WITH CHIVE AND MUSTARD SAUCE



Chicken Breasts with Chive and Mustard Sauce image

Provided by Michael Lomonaco

Categories     Chicken     Herb     Mustard     Poultry     Sauté     Wheat/Gluten-Free     Dinner     Chive     Sugar Conscious     Peanut Free     Tree Nut Free     Soy Free

Yield Serves 4

Number Of Ingredients 10

2 tablespoons unsalted butter
Four 8-ounce skinless, boneless chicken breasts, slightly pounded, and flattened
Fine sea salt and freshly ground pepper
3 tablespoons chopped shallots
1/2 cup brandy, apple brandy, pear brandy, or Kentucky bourbon
1/2 cup dry white wine
3 tablespoons Dijon mustard
1 1/2 cups homemade chicken stock, or store-bought low sodium chicken broth
1/2 cup heavy cream
3 tablespoons minced fresh chives

Steps:

  • 1. Heat the butter in a wide, heavy-bottomed sauté pan until it begins to melt and foam. Season the chicken with salt and pepper. Add the breasts to the pan and brown them on one side, 6 to 8 minutes. Turn them over and cook them until well browned on the other side, about 6 more minutes. The chicken is done when it is firm to the touch and the juices run clear. Transfer the chicken to a plate and cover with foil to keep warm.
  • 2. Add the shallots to the same pan and sauté until softened but not browned, about 2 minutes. Lower the heat, move the pan away from the flame, lean away from it, and carefully pour in the brandy, taking care not to let it flame. (If it does flame, cover with a pot lid until the brandy cooks out.) Continuing to be mindful of potential flare-ups, return the pan to the stove and let the brandy evaporate over low heat.
  • 3. Add the wine to the pan, raise the heat to high, and bring it to a boil. Whisk in the mustard and let reduce for 1 minute. Pour in the broth and cook for 2 to 3 minutes more.
  • 4. Stir in the cream and bring just to a boil. Stir in the chives. Return the chicken breasts to the pan and simmer gently until the stock has reduced and thickened slightly, 4 to 5 minutes.
  • 5. To serve, put 1 chicken breast in the center of each of 4 plates and spoon some sauce over the top.
  • Your Nightly Specials Instead of chicken, use small beefsteaks or pork loin chops. Cooking time will vary based on thickness and desired doneness, but will be about 2 minutes more per side than the chicken.
  • For a spicier sauce, add 1 teaspoon hot, dry, English mustard to the sauce along with the Dijon.

Tips:

  • For a richer flavor, use chicken breasts with skin. Sear the skin side down in a skillet until golden brown before transferring to the oven to finish cooking.
  • If you don't have dry white wine, you can substitute chicken broth or water. However, the wine will add a subtle flavor to the sauce, so it's best to use it if you have it.
  • To make sure the sauce is smooth, strain it through a fine-mesh sieve before serving.
  • Serve the chicken with your favorite sides, such as mashed potatoes, rice, or roasted vegetables.

Conclusion:

This chicken breasts with mustard cream sauce recipe is a quick and easy weeknight meal that is sure to please the whole family. The chicken is juicy and tender, and the sauce is creamy and flavorful. With a few simple ingredients, you can create a delicious and satisfying meal that everyone will love.
