Categories     dinner, main course

Time 40m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 17

2 tablespoons butter
1/3 cup finely chopped onions
1/4 cup finely diced celery
1/4 cup finely diced carrots
1 teaspoon finely minced garlic
1 cup plus 1 tablespoon flour
1 cup dry red wine
3/4 cup fresh or canned beef or chicken broth
1/4 teaspoon dried thyme
1/2 bay leaf
2 sprigs fresh parsley
Salt to taste if desired
Freshly ground pepper to taste
1 3/4 pounds fresh chicken livers
2 tablespoons ground or rubbed sage
3/4 cup corn, peanut or vegetable oil
1/2 cup finely chopped parsley

Steps:

  • Heat half the butter in a heavy saucepan and add the onions. Cook, stirring, until they start taking on a little color. Add celery, carrots and half the garlic. Cook briefly, stirring, and sprinkle with 1 tablespoon flour. Stir to blend.
  • Add wine, broth, thyme, bay leaf, parsley sprigs, salt and pepper and bring to the boil. Let simmer 20 minutes. Line a sieve and pour in the sauce. Strain, pushing through as much liquid as possible. Discard the solids. There should be about 1/4 cup.
  • Meanwhile, pick over the livers, cutting away and discarding the connecting membranes. Cut the livers in half and then into quarters. Drain thoroughly in a sieve.
  • Blend the remaining 1 cup of flour, salt, pepper and half the sage. Dredge the liver pieces in the mixture and shake off excess. Line a large mixing bowl with a large sieve and have it ready for draining the livers.
  • Heat about one-third of the oil in a heavy skillet. When it is hot add one-third of the livers. Cook, turning the pieces so that they brown evenly. Cook 2 to 3 minutes until brown and crisp on the outside. Drain.
  • Add another third of the oil. When it is hot add another third of the livers. Repeat, draining the livers as necessary and cooking until they are all brown and crisp on the outside.
  • Heat the remaining tablespoon of butter in a casserole and add the remaining tablespoon of sage and remaining half teaspoon garlic. Cook briefly and add the sauce. Bring to a boil and let simmer about 1 minute. Add the livers and cook to heat thoroughly. Stir in chopped parsley and serve.

CHICKEN AND WINE SAUCE

Chicken with a mix of Asian and Italian seasoning. Serve over rice with garlic bread. I usually put extra Italian dressing and soy in. Also, use a full body red wine; the thinner the wine the thinner the sauce.

RED WINE VINEGAR CHICKEN WITH PASTA



Red Wine Vinegar Chicken With Pasta image

This recipe came from an experiment of mine. I was trying to think of new ways to cook chicken in a healthy way, using as little fat as possible. I noticed the different types of vinegar in my kitchen and decided to try red wine vinegar. The result was wonderful! However for those who don't like the strong taste of vinegar you can use less, or use a stronger tasting spaghetti sauce.

Categories     Chicken

Time 40m

Yield 4 main course servings, 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 5

2 fresh chicken breasts or 2 frozen chicken breasts, thawed
1 teaspoon olive oil
1/2 cup red wine vinegar
1 (26 ounce) can spaghetti sauce (any kind will do but I prefer one with garlic)
4 cups pasta (enough for 4 people)

Steps:

  • Fill a large sauce pan with water on high heat.
  • Allow to boil and add pasta.
  • Cook until al dente and rinse with hot water.
  • Set aside.
  • Heat a non-stick frying pan with oil on med heat.
  • Place chicken breast in pan with 1/3 of vinegar.
  • Cook chicken turning over until chicken is cooked through.
  • Allow chicken to lightly simmer in vinegar by pouring vinegar over top of chicken while cooking.
  • When chicken is cooked through remove carefully from pan and cut into strips, returning to pan on lowest setting to keep warm.
  • (Its alright to allow the chicken to slightly brown, but do not allow to dry out). Empty can of spaghetti sauce into sauce pan.
  • Over medium heat stir until heated through.
  • (Add any chopped vegetables to make a chunkier sauce- such as chopped tomatoes, green pepper, onion, zucchini, broccoli, carrots, etc.) Add chicken to sauce before serving.
  • (Alternatively add sauce to pasta and sprinkle pieces of chicken over top).

Tips:

  • Choose the right wine: Use a dry red wine with a medium body and low tannins. Some good options include Pinot Noir, Merlot, and Cabernet Sauvignon.
  • Reduce the wine properly: Simmer the wine over medium heat until it has reduced by about half. This will concentrate the flavor and remove the alcohol.
  • Add some acidity: A little bit of acidity can help to balance out the richness of the sauce. You can add this by using lemon juice, vinegar, or even a splash of white wine.
  • Use fresh herbs: Fresh herbs can add a lot of flavor to the sauce. Some good options include basil, thyme, and oregano.
  • Don't overcook the sauce: The sauce should be simmered for just a few minutes, until it has thickened slightly. Overcooking the sauce can make it bitter.

Conclusion:

Red wine sauce is a delicious and versatile sauce that can be used with a variety of dishes. With a few simple ingredients and a little bit of time, you can easily make your own red wine sauce at home. Whether you're using it to dress up a simple pasta dish or to add some flavor to grilled chicken, red wine sauce is sure to please everyone at the table.
