JELLIED CHICKEN AND CORIANDER "TERRINE"



Jellied Chicken and Coriander

Terrines - molded preparations of meat, fish, or vegetables - are wonderfully rich and dense. This chicken variation, with a fraction of the calories and fat of a traditional terrine, draws its structure and moistness from aspic and its lively seasonings from China. To accompany it, try Japanese soba noodles - their springy texture contrasts with the terrine's smooth gel and tender chicken - and fast-cooked snow peas , for crunch.

Yield Makes 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 16

3 cups chicken broth, fat skimmed
1/2 cup medium-dry Sherry
2 teaspoons soy sauce
a 1 1/2-inch piece fresh gingerroot, cut into 1/4-inch-thick slices
6 scallions, each cut crosswise into thirds and flattened with flat side of a large knife
1 1/2 tablespoons star anise pieces*, crushed lightly
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 pound skinless boneless chicken breasts (about 3 breast halves)
about 3/4 cup cold water
1 envelope plus 1 1/2 teaspoons (about 4 1/2 teaspoons total) unflavored gelatin
1/2 cup fresh coriander leaves, washed well and spun dry
For sauce
2 tablespoons hoisin sauce
4 teaspoons rice vinegar (not seasoned)
Accompaniment: 1/4 cup drained pickled ginger*
*available at Asian markets and some specialty foods shops

Steps:

  • In a 3-quart saucepan simmer broth, Sherry, soy sauce, gingerroot, scallions, star anise, and salt, covered, 25 minutes. Add chicken and cook at a bare simmer, uncovered, 15 minutes. Cool chicken in liquid, uncovered, 1 hour.
  • Transfer chicken to a bowl, reserving cooking liquid, and tear into thin shreds. Chill chicken, covered, while making aspic.
  • Pour reserved cooking liquid through a fine sieve lined with a dampened paper towel into a bowl. Measure liquid and add enough cold water (about 1/2 cup) to measure 3 cups total. Return liquid to cleaned pan.
  • In a small bowl sprinkle gelatin over 1/4 cup cold water to soften. Stir gelatin mixture into cooking liquid and heat over moderate heat, stirring, until gelatin is dissolved (do not boil).
  • Toss chicken with coriander and arrange evenly in a 2-quart terrine or loaf pan. Pour aspic slowly over chicken mixture. Chill terrine, covered, until firm, at least 6 hours, and up to 2 days.
  • Make sauce:
  • In a small bowl stir together hoisin sauce and vinegar until smooth.
  • Run a thin knife around edge of terrine and dip terrine or pan into a larger pan of hot water 10 seconds to loosen. Invert terrine onto a platter and serve with sauce and pickled ginger. Terrine will be quite fragile: If slicing, use an electric knife; otherwise, serve with a spoon.

Tips:

  • Choose the right chicken. Boneless, skinless chicken breasts are the best choice for this recipe, as they are lean and cook quickly. If you use chicken with bones or skin, you will need to remove them before shredding the chicken.
  • Cook the chicken properly. The chicken should be cooked through but not overcooked, as overcooked chicken will be dry and tough. To ensure that the chicken is cooked through, use a meat thermometer to check that the internal temperature has reached 165 degrees Fahrenheit.
  • Shred the chicken finely. This will help the chicken to blend well with the other ingredients and create a smooth loaf.
  • Use a flavorful broth. The broth that you use to make the jelly will add flavor to the loaf. Use a broth that you enjoy the taste of, such as chicken broth, beef broth, or vegetable broth.
  • Let the loaf chill before serving. This will help the loaf to set and firm up.

Conclusion:

Jellied chicken loaf is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for any occasion. It is a great way to use up leftover chicken, and it can be served as an appetizer, main course, or side dish. With its simple ingredients and flavorful taste, jellied chicken loaf is sure to be a hit with your family and friends.
