Steps:
- For the chicken: Put the chicken in a resealable bag. Add the olive oil, salt, pepper and Italian seasoning to the bag and smush everything together. Seal and refrigerate.
- For the red pepper sauce: Melt the butter and add the olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the onion and garlic and saute for 2 to 3 minutes or until starting to soften. Add the red peppers and cook for 2 to 3 minutes, until hot.
- Add the broth (if you like a thicker sauce only add 1 cup broth, for a thinner sauce add 2 cups broth), salt and pepper and stir until heated. Splash in the cream.
- Remove the skillet from the heat. Carefully transfer the contents of the skillet to a food processor or blender. Place on the lid and puree the pepper mixture until totally blended (there will still be some texture to the peppers). You can serve the sauce right away or cool it and bag it up.
- When ready to cook, heat a grill pan over medium-high heat and grill the chicken until cooked through, about 4 minutes a side.
- Heat up the red pepper sauce in a pan. Serve everyone a piece of chicken, spoon some sauce over each piece, and garnish with Parmesan shavings and a sprinkling of parsley. Serve with roasted vegetables alongside.
CHICKEN WITH GREEN PEPPERCORN SAUCE
This recipe was from Cooking Light magazine, which stated it originally came from the cookbook "French Women Don't Get Fat". My wife and I cooked this up for the first time the other night and absolutely loved it! A great pepper flavor, and the chicken was tender and juicy! It is a slight variation of recipe #275890. We used dry sherry as I did not know which white wines were considered "dry".

GREEN PEPPERCORN CHICKEN

PERUVIAN-STYLE ROAST CHICKEN WITH TANGY GREEN SAUCE
This cumin- and paprika-spiced number gets added punch from an addictively tangy green sauce and a crisp, bright avocado and cucumber salad. Spatchcocking-an easy and fun technique that involves removing the backbone to "flatten" the bird before cooking-makes for quick roasting and produces juicy results.

Steps:
- Roast the chicken:
- Arrange rack in middle of oven; preheat to 400°F. Mix garlic, cumin, oil, paprika, pepper, oregano, 1/2 tsp. salt, and finely grated zest from 1 lemon in a medium bowl. Quarter zested lemon; set aside 2 quarters. Squeeze juice from 1 whole lemon and remaining 2 quarters to yield 2 Tbsp. juice; stir into spice mixture.
- Place chicken breast side down on work surface. Spatchcock chicken by cutting along both sides of backbone with kitchen shears. Remove backbone; reserve for stock. Turn chicken breast side up and splay open. Press down on breastbone with palms until you hear it crack and chicken is as flat as possible. Pat chicken dry with paper towels. Rub chicken all over with 2 reserved lemon quarters. Squeeze juice over bird, then rub skin all over with inside of rinds.
- From both edges of cavity, loosen skin from breasts and thighs, being careful not to tear skin. Using your fingers, gently spread 2 heaping Tbsp. spice mixture under skin (reserve remaining spice mixture), then season chicken all over with remaining 1 tsp. salt. Transfer chicken, spread flat and skin side up, to a roasting pan or large skillet.
- Roast chicken 20 minutes, then brush with spice mixture and pan juices. Continue roasting, basting with spice mixture and pan juices every 20 minutes, until juices run clear when thigh is pierced with a fork or an instant-read thermometer inserted into thickest part of thigh registers 165ºF, 50-60 minutes total.
- Transfer chicken to a cutting board and let rest 15 minutes, reserving pan juices.
- Make the green sauce:
- Purée cilantro, jalapeños, garlic, oil, lime juice, and salt in a blender until combined. Add mayonnaise and purée until well blended. Transfer to a small bowl, cover, and chill until ready to use.
- Make the salad:
- Gently toss cucumbers, avocado, scallions, lime juice, oil, salt, and 1/2 cup cilantro in a large bowl. Sprinkle with more cilantro.
- Carve chicken and transfer to a platter; baste with reserved pan juices. Serve with green sauce and salad alongside.
- Do Ahead
- Green sauce can be made 5 days ahead. Cover and chill.

Steps:
- Arrange the chicken pieces in a large, deep skillet and pour the olive oil over them. Turn the pieces to coat them evenly with oil. Scatter the garlic pieces in the pan and lay the parsley and scallions (both uncut) on top of the chicken so as to "smother" it during cooking. Sprinkle lightly with salt and pepper.
- Cover the skillet securely and cook over very low heat for 1 hour.
- Uncover the skillet. Using a fork, remove all the garlic, parsley and scallion pieces to a blender and puree for a few seconds. With the blender still running, pour in all the juices from the skillet and puree until a smooth green sauce is achieved. Taste the sauce and season as desired with salt. Remove the chicken pieces to a serving platter, pour the sauce over them to coat evenly and serve.

Tips:
- Mise en place: Before you start cooking, make sure you have all of your ingredients and equipment ready. This will help you stay organized and avoid scrambling.
- Use fresh ingredients: The fresher your ingredients, the better your dish will taste. Whenever possible, use fresh herbs, vegetables, and meat.
- Don't overcrowd the pan: When searing chicken, don't overcrowd the pan. This will prevent the chicken from cooking evenly and will make it more likely to stick.
- Cook the chicken until it is cooked through: Use a meat thermometer to ensure that the chicken is cooked to an internal temperature of 165 degrees Fahrenheit.
- Make sure the sauce is thickened: If the sauce is too thin, you can thicken it by adding a cornstarch slurry. To make a cornstarch slurry, mix equal parts cornstarch and water in a small bowl until smooth. Then, add the slurry to the sauce and cook over medium heat until thickened.
- Serve immediately: Chicken with green peppercorn sauce is best served immediately. However, you can make the sauce ahead of time and reheat it before serving.
Conclusion:
Chicken with green peppercorn sauce is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for a special occasion. The creamy sauce, made with green peppercorns, cognac, and cream, is rich and flavorful. The chicken is tender and juicy, and the combination of flavors is simply divine. If you are looking for a new and exciting way to cook chicken, I highly recommend trying this recipe.
