Time 20m

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 12

1/3 cup Betty Crocker™ All-Purpose Gluten Free Rice Flour Blend
3/4 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon pepper
4 small boneless skinless chicken breasts
3 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
1 tablespoon butter
2 cloves garlic, finely chopped
3 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
1/2 cup gluten-free chicken broth
1/3 cup dry white wine
1/2 cup grape tomato halves
2 tablespoons chopped fresh Italian (flat-leaf) parsley

Steps:

  • In shallow pan, stir together flour blend, salt and pepper; set aside.
  • Between pieces of plastic wrap or waxed paper, place chicken breasts smooth sides down; gently pound with flat side of meat mallet or rolling pin until about 1/4 inch thick.
  • In 10-inch nonstick skillet, heat half the olive oil over medium-high heat. Coat 2 pieces chicken in flour blend mixture. Add to skillet. Cook about 6 minutes, turning halfway through cooking, until chicken is no longer pink in center. Remove chicken to plate; keep warm. Repeat with remaining oil and chicken. (Reserve 1 tablespoon flour blend mixture.)
  • In same skillet, melt butter over medium heat. Cook and stir garlic in butter about 1 minute or just until golden. Stir in reserved flour blend mixture. Add lemon juice and chicken broth; heat to boiling. Add wine and tomatoes; return boiling. Cook and stir about 1 minute longer or until sauce is slightly thickened. Season with additional salt and pepper, if desired. Return chicken to skillet, coating in sauce and cooking until heated through. Divide chicken mixture among 4 serving plates, spooning sauce over chicken. Sprinkle with parsley.

Provided by Ina Garten

Categories     main-dish

Time 1h25m

Yield 3 servings

Number Of Ingredients 11

2 teaspoons fresh thyme leaves
1 teaspoon whole fennel seeds
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
1/3 cup good olive oil
1 lemon, halved and sliced 1/4 inch thick
1 yellow onion, halved and sliced 1/4 inch thick
2 large garlic cloves, thinly sliced
1 (4-pound) chicken, backbone removed and butterflied
1/2 cup dry white wine, such as Pinot Grigio
Juice of 1 lemon

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F.
  • Place the thyme, fennel seeds, 1 tablespoon salt, and 1 teaspoon pepper in a mini food processor and process until ground. Pour the olive oil into a small glass measuring cup, stir in the herb mixture, and set aside.
  • Distribute the lemon slices in a 12-inch cast iron skillet and distribute the onion and garlic on top. Place the chicken, skin side down, on top of the onion and brush with about half the oil and herb mixture. Turn the chicken skin side up, pat it dry with paper towels (very important!), and brush it all over with the rest of the oil and herb mixture.
  • Roast the chicken for 30 minutes. Pour the wine into the pan (not on the chicken!) and roast for another 10 to15 minutes, until a meat thermometer inserted into the thickest part of the breast registers 155 to 160 degrees.
  • Remove the chicken from the oven, sprinkle it with the lemon juice, cover the skillet tightly with aluminum foil, and allow to rest for 10 to 15 minutes. Cut the chicken in quarters or eighths, sprinkle with salt, and serve hot with the pan juices, cooked lemon, and onion.

EASY LEMON CHICKEN -GLUTEN FREE



Easy Lemon Chicken -Gluten Free image

This dish is very easy to prepare. It has pan cooked chicken breast with a lemon sauce drizzled over the top. Ensure your flours, soy sauce and liquid stock used are all gluten free. I use Massell brand stock and Fountain brand soy sauce as they are currently GF. You can substitute the soy sauce for a gluten free Tamari sauce. Nobody would guess this is a GF dish. Make double quantity of the sauce if you like a lot of sauce to serve

Tuscan Style Roasted Chicken image

Provided by Michael Symon : Food Network

Categories     main-dish

Time 45m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 11

One 6-pound whole chicken, cut into 8 pieces
Kosher salt and freshly cracked black pepper
Olive oil, for cooking
3 cloves garlic, sliced
4 ounces dry vermouth
2 beefsteak tomatoes, cut into eighths
1/2 cup pitted green olives (your favorite kind)
Small bundle fresh oregano, tied with butcher's twine
1 1/2 cups chicken stock
2 tablespoons unsalted butter
Fresh basil, torn, for serving

Steps:

  • Set up a grill for cooking with direct and indirect heat. If using a charcoal grill, build the coals on one side only. If using a gas grill, heat one side only. Place a large cast-iron pan on the direct-heat side of the grill to preheat.
  • Sprinkle the chicken with salt and pepper on both sides. Add a film of olive oil to the pan, followed by the chicken pieces, skin-side down. Allow the chicken to deeply brown, 4 to 5 minutes, then flip and add the garlic. Briefly sauté until fragrant, then deglaze with the vermouth. Scatter in the tomatoes, olives and oregano bundle. Add the chicken stock and season with salt and pepper. Move the pan to the indirect-heat side of the grill and close the lid. Allow to cook until the chicken is cooked through and the internal temperature reads 160 degrees F, 15 to 20 minutes. Remove the pan from the heat and stir in the butter. Discard the oregano bundle. Top with the basil and serve.

LEMON CHICKEN SKILLET

Categories     Main Dishes     Pasta     Chicken

Time 30m

Yield 6

Number Of Ingredients 18

12 ounces gemelli pasta
1 tablespoon olive oil
1 tablespoon butter
1 ½ pounds boneless, skinless chicken breast, cut into 2-inch strips
½ teaspoon Italian seasoning
¼ teaspoon granulated garlic
¼ teaspoon salt
½ cup quartered portobello mushrooms (optional)
1 tablespoon vegetable oil
1 tablespoon butter
4 cloves garlic, minced
2 sprigs fresh thyme
1 small lemon, zested and juiced
2 tablespoons Chardonnay wine
2 tablespoons flour
13 ounces chicken broth
8 ounces fresh spinach
5 ounces shredded Gruyere cheese

Steps:

  • Bring a large pot of lightly salted water to a boil. Cook gemelli in the boiling water, stirring occasionally, until tender yet firm to the bite, about 12 minutes. Drain and reserve 1 cup pasta cooking water.
  • Meanwhile, heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add 1 tablespoon butter and allow to melt. Season chicken strips with Italian seasoning, garlic granules, and salt. Once butter is melted, add seasoned chicken strips and cook until strips are a golden color, about 5 minutes. Add portobello mushrooms and cook until softened, about 5 minutes.
  • Remove chicken and mushrooms from the skillet. Set aside on a plate and keep warm.
  • Wipe out skillet and add 1 tablespoon oil and 1 tablespoon butter. Melt butter over medium heat and add garlic; cook until fragrant, about 30 seconds. Add thyme sprigs and lemon zest. Cook for 30 seconds, stirring often. Pour in wine and lemon juice. Continue to cook and stir until sauce has reduced by half, about 3 minutes. Whisk in flour to thicken sauce and create a roux. Gradually add broth, whisking continuously, until you have a thick sauce. Add spinach and cook for 1 minute.
  • Stir in 1/2 of the Gruyere cheese and stir until well combined. Once cheese has melted, add remaining cheese and stir until melted. If sauce is too thick, gradually stir in reserved pasta cooking water to thin out the sauce.
  • Add cooked pasta to the skillet and toss until well combined with the sauce. Add chicken and mushrooms, adjust seasoning to taste, and serve immediately.

Tips:

  • Mise en place: Before you start cooking, make sure you have all your ingredients and tools ready to go. This will help you stay organized and avoid scrambling.
  • Use a nonstick skillet: This will help prevent the chicken from sticking and make cleanup a breeze.
  • Sear the chicken: Searing the chicken helps to lock in the juices and create a delicious crust.
  • Cook the chicken through: Make sure the chicken is cooked all the way through before you serve it. You can check this by inserting a meat thermometer into the thickest part of the chicken. The internal temperature should reach 165 degrees Fahrenheit.
  • Add the sauce: Once the chicken is cooked, add the lemon sauce and simmer until the sauce has thickened.
  • Serve immediately: This dish is best served immediately, while the chicken is still hot and juicy.

Conclusion:

This gluten-free skillet lemon chicken is a quick and easy weeknight meal that is sure to please the whole family. The chicken is tender and juicy, the sauce is tangy and flavorful, and the whole dish comes together in just 30 minutes. So next time you're looking for a delicious and healthy dinner, give this recipe a try. You won't be disappointed!
