PAN-ROASTED CHICKEN BREASTS WITH ONION AND ALE SAUCE
Cook's Illustrated. "Try to choose 10- to 12-ounce split chicken breasts with skin intact. If split breasts are of different sizes, check the smaller ones a few minutes early to see if they are cooking more quickly, and remove them from the skillet if they are done ahead. Brown ale gives this sauce a nutty, toasty, bittersweet flavor. Newcastle Brown Ale and Samuel Smith Nut Brown Ale are good choices."

Steps:
- Brine the chicken:.
- Combine the orange juice, zest, 6 Tbs. salt, and 4 cups water in a large bowl or pot; stir to dissolve the salt. Add the chicken breasts and refrigerate for 2 to 3 hours.
- Cook the chicken:.
- Position a rack in the center of the oven and heat the oven to 400°F.
- Remove the chicken from the brine and pat it dry with paper towels.
- Heat the olive oil in a 12-inch oven-proof skillet over medium-high heat until shimmering hot. Add the chicken skin side down in a snug single layer and cook until the skin is golden brown, 3 to 5 minutes. Turn the chicken, season with 1/4 teaspoons salt and a few grinds of pepper, and put the pan in the oven. Roast the chicken until an instant-read thermometer registers 165°F in the center of the thickest breast, about 15 minutes. Remove from the oven, transfer the chicken to a carving board, tent with foil, and let rest while you make the sauce.
- Make the sauce:.
- Pour the juices from the skillet into a heatproof measuring cup. Let the fat rise to the surface and then spoon it off.
- Melt 2 Tbs. of the butter in the skillet over medium-high heat. Add the shallot and cook, stirring, until soft, 1 to 2 minutes. Off the heat, add the brandy. Return the pan to the heat and cook, scraping the bottom of the pan, until the brandy has almost evaporated, about 30 seconds. Increase the heat to high and add the orange juice. Boil until thick and syrupy and reduced to about 1/3 cup, about 5 minutes. Add the chicken broth, pan juices, and any juices from the carving board. Boil until reduced to about 3/4 cup, about 3 minutes.
- Swirl in the orange segments. Then, off the heat, swirl in the remaining 1 Tbs. butter and the parsley until the butter is melted. Season to taste with salt and a few grinds of pepper.
- To serve, cut the chicken on the diagonal into thin slices and arrange on 6 serving plates. Drizzle with the sauce.

Tips:
- Choose high-quality chicken breasts. Look for breasts that are plump and have a slightly pink color. Avoid breasts that are thin or have a yellow tint.
- Use a well-seasoned skillet. A cast iron skillet is a great option, but you can also use a stainless steel or non-stick skillet. Make sure the skillet is well-heated before adding the chicken breasts.
- Don't overcrowd the skillet. If you're cooking multiple chicken breasts, make sure to cook them in batches so that they have enough space to brown evenly.
- Cook the chicken breasts over medium heat. This will help to prevent them from burning on the outside and remaining raw on the inside.
- Use a meat thermometer to ensure that the chicken breasts are cooked through. The internal temperature of the chicken breasts should reach 165 degrees Fahrenheit.
- Let the chicken breasts rest before serving. This will help the juices to redistribute throughout the meat, resulting in a more tender and flavorful chicken breast.
Conclusion:
Pan-roasted chicken breasts are a simple but delicious dish that can be enjoyed by people of all ages. By following the tips above, you can ensure that your chicken breasts are cooked perfectly every time. Serve them with your favorite sides, such as roasted vegetables, mashed potatoes, or rice, and enjoy!
