Categories     main-dish

Yield 4 to 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 13

4 chicken breasts with bone
3 tablespoons olive oil
2 celery stalks, sliced
2 onions, 1 diced, 1 sliced
1 large carrot, diced
2 cups chicken stock or chicken bouillon
1 cup dry white wine
4 English muffins, cut in half
1 cup pine nuts
Salt and pepper
2 medium summer or crookneck squash, cut in rounds
2 medium zucchini, cut in rounds
1/4 teaspoon dried oregano

Steps:

  • Wash and pat dry chicken breasts, season with salt and pepper and sear in a frying pan with 1 tablespoon of olive oil. Remove from pan and set aside. Drain the oil from pan.
  • Using the same frying pan add 1 tablespoon olive oil and saute celery, diced onion and carrot. Cook through allowing the flavors to meld. Return the seared chicken breasts to the pan and add the chicken stock and the white wine. Bring the liquid to a simmer and cover. Simmer until the chicken breasts are cooked through, about 20 minutes. Remove the lid and reduce the liquid until it is not so brothy. Season with salt and pepper.
  • While the chicken is cooking, toast the English muffins and set aside. Toast the pine nuts in 1 tablespoon of olive oil and season with salt.
  • Saute the remaining sliced onion, squash and zucchini, allowing for some browning. Stir gently while seasoning with salt, pepper and oregano. Continue cooking until squash is slightly browned and the onion is translucent.
  • Remove the chicken breasts from the pan and place on the individual dinner plates. Take the toasted English muffins and soak up some of the pan juices. Using the chicken breast as a "lean to", place it so it faces the front of the plate. Add the sauteed zucchini mixture to the plate and cover the breast and the muffin with the vegetable mirepoix. Garnish with toasted pine nuts.

Tips:

  • Mise en place: Before you start cooking, make sure you have all your ingredients and equipment ready. This will help you stay organized and avoid scrambling.
  • Use fresh, seasonal ingredients: Fresh ingredients will always give you the best flavor. When possible, buy your produce from a local farmer's market or grocery store.
  • Don't overcrowd the pan: When you're cooking chicken or vegetables, make sure you don't overcrowd the pan. This will prevent them from cooking evenly.
  • Season your food well: Don't be afraid to season your food well. Salt, pepper, and garlic powder are all great basic seasonings that can be used on almost anything.
  • Cook the chicken until it's cooked through: Make sure you cook the chicken until it's cooked through. This means the juices should run clear when you poke the chicken with a fork.
  • Serve the dish hot: This dish is best served hot. If you're making it ahead of time, reheat it before serving.
