Time 45m

Yield Serves 4

Number Of Ingredients 12

2 boneless skinless chicken breasts (most weigh 8 to 10 ounces)
2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
3 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
2 garlic cloves, minced or puréed
1 teaspoon chopped fresh rosemary
Salt to taste
Freshly ground pepper
2 tablespoons all-purpose flour or a gluten-free flour such as rice flour or corn flour
2 tablespoons grapeseed, sunflower or canola oil
1 pound mushrooms, sliced
1 teaspoon fresh thyme leaves or 1 tablespoon chopped flat-leaf parsley
1/4 cup dry white wine

Steps:

  • Stir together olive oil, lemon juice, garlic, rosemary, and salt and pepper in a large bowl. Cut each chicken breast into 2 equal pieces (3 if they're 12 ounces or more) and place in the bowl. Stir together and refrigerate for 15 to 30 minutes.
  • Remove chicken from marinade and pat dry (discard marinade). Place two sheets of plastic wrap (1 large sheet if you have extra-wide wrap) on your work surface, overlapping slightly, to make 1 wide sheet, and brush lightly with olive oil. Place a piece of chicken in the middle of plastic sheet and brush lightly with oil. Cover the chicken with another wide layer of plastic wrap. Working from the center to the outside, pound chicken breast with the flat side of a meat tenderizer until about 1/4 inch thick. (Don't pound too hard or you'll tear the meat. If that happens it won't be the end of the world, you'll just have a few pieces to cook.) Repeat with the remaining chicken breast pieces.
  • Season the pounded chicken breasts with salt and pepper on one side only. Dredge lightly in the flour (you will not use all of it) and tap the breasts to remove excess.
  • Turn oven on low Heat a wide, heavy skillet over high heat and add oil. When oil is hot, place one or two pieces of chicken in the pan - however many will fit without crowding. Cook for 1 1/2 minutes, until bottom is browned in spots. Turn over and brown other side, about 1 1/2 minutes. (Do not overcook or the chicken will be dry.) Transfer to the platter or sheet pan and keep warm in the oven. If there is more than a tablespoon of fat in the pan, pour some (but not all) it off into a jar or bowl.
  • Turn burner heat down to medium-high. Add mushrooms to the pan. Let them sear for about 30 seconds to a minute without moving them, then stir, scraping the bottom of the pan with a wooden spoon to deglaze. When mushrooms have softened slightly and begun to sweat, add wine, thyme or parsley, and salt and pepper to taste. Continue to stir until wine has evaporated and mushrooms are tender, 5 to 10 minutes. Spoon over the chicken, and serve.

LEMON GARLIC SLOW COOK CHICKEN RECIPE BY TASTY



Lemon Garlic Slow Cook Chicken Recipe by Tasty image

Here's what you need: whole chicken, lemons, garlic, fresh rosemary, salt, pepper

Provided by Tasty

Categories     Dinner

Yield 5 servings

Number Of Ingredients 6

1 whole chicken, based on the size of your slow cooker - a 1.3kg chicken should just about fit into a 3.5L slow cooker - while a 6.5L would probably fit a 2kg chicken
4 lemons
10 cloves garlic, 8 whole and 2 halved
4 sprigs fresh rosemary
salt
pepper

Steps:

  • Remove any giblets etc. from the cavity of the chicken, sometimes in a small bag.
  • Stuff chicken with 1 sprig of rosemary, 1 lemon (quartered) and 4 cloves garlic.
  • Season all sides of the chicken with salt and pepper.
  • Remove both ends of a lemon, cut in half to create very thick slices.
  • Line the bottom of the slow cooker with 4 lemon slices, 4 whole garlic cloves and a sprig of rosemary.
  • Put the chicken in the slow cooker.
  • Cut 2 garlic cloves in half and put all four pieces on top of the chicken along with the 2 remaining lemon slices.
  • Garnish with 1-2 more sprigs of rosemary. Put the lid on the slow cooker and set to high for 4 hours.
  • Place cooked chicken under the grill (broil) for 10 minutes to crisp the skin (optional).
  • Allow chicken to rest for 10 minutes before carving and serving. Leftover juices in the slow cooker are mostly lemon juice with a bit of chicken fat and can be used sparingly as a strongly flavoured sauce.
  • Enjoy!

  • Use fresh ingredients: The fresher your ingredients, the better your dish will taste. If possible, use organic and locally-sourced ingredients.
  • Don't overcrowd the pan: When cooking the chicken, make sure not to overcrowd the pan. This will prevent the chicken from cooking evenly.

  • Use a variety of mushrooms: Feel free to mix and match different types of mushrooms for a more flavorful dish.
