Categories     main-dish

Time 1h30m

Yield 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 18

2 tablespoons olive oil
1 cup small-diced tomatoes
1/4 cup julienned red onions
Salt and freshly ground black pepper
1 teaspoon minced fresh parsley
6 airline-style (with drumette attached) skin-on chicken breasts (about 8 ounces each)
1/4 cup thinly sliced strips red onions
1 1/2 cups tomato sauce
4 cups cooked penne, kept warm
1/4 cup grated Parmesan
1/4 cup warm Parmesan Cream, recipe follows
Olive oil, for drizzling
Chopped fresh parsley, for garnish
3 tablespoons butter
3 tablespoons all-purpose flour
2 cups milk
6 cups grated Parmesan
Salt and white pepper

Steps:

  • For the chicken and stuffing: Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F.
  • In a saucepan, heat 1 tablespoon of the oil on medium-high heat for 2 minutes. Then add the tomatoes and onions and stir. Cook this mixture until softened, 4 to 5 minutes. Season with salt and pepper and finish with minced parsley. Remove from the heat, stir and let cool. Drain off any excess liquid.
  • Slice a pocket in each breast from the top area next to the drumette three-quarters into the breast towards the tip. Fill each pocket with about 2 tablespoons stuffing and pat flat to ensure even cooking.
  • Warm an oven-safe nonstick pan over medium-high heat with the remaining 1 tablespoon olive oil for 2 minutes. Sprinkle the breasts with salt and pepper. Add the breasts to the pan, skin-side first, and allow to sear until the skin is browned, 2 to 3 minutes. Flip and cook on the second side for 2 minutes, and then place in the oven and finish for 8 to 10 minutes. Let the chicken rest until plating; keep the oil in the pan.
  • For the pasta: Place the heated chicken pan again over medium heat and add the onions. Cook, stirring, until softened, 3 to 4 minutes. Finally, reduce the heat to low, add the tomato sauce and stir to warm for 3 to 4 minutes. Add the pasta, stir and warm. Saucing the pasta should take 3 to 4 minutes. Add the Parmesan and stir.
  • Portion the pasta onto individual plates and top with a stuffed breast. Top with some Parmesan Cream and drizzle with olive oil. Garnish with parsley.
  • In a saucepan over medium-high heat, add the butter and cook until melted. Reduce the heat to medium, add the flour and cook, stirring, to create a roux; cook until the roux is a pale blond color. Reduce the heat to low, add the milk and cook, stirring, until thickened. Finally, add the cheese to the milk mixture one cup at a time, stirring until all the cheese has been added and well blended. Taste and season with salt and pepper, and then remove from the heat. Continue to stir to ensure consistency and to allow the mixture to cool.

Time 1h

Yield 2 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 13

3/4 cup softened butter, divided
2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
2 boneless skinless chicken breast halves (about 8 ounces each)
1/2 cup italian-seasoned dry breadcrumbs
1 1/2 cups chicken stock
3/4 cup thinly sliced mushroom (about 3 ounces)
1 cup broccoli floret (see note)
2 tablespoons chopped prosciutto (about 1 slice)
1 garlic clove, chopped
1 pinch red pepper flakes
1/2 lemon, juice of (about 2 tablespoons)
1/2 cup dry white wine
2 cups shredded provolone cheese (8oz divided)

Steps:

  • 1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Melt 1/4 cup butter; set aside.
  • 2. In a bowl, combine the remaining 1/2 cup butter with flour, using the back of a fork or a pastry blender to mix until creamy.
  • 3. Rinse chicken and pat dry. Cut each piece of chicken in half. Coat chicken with bread crumbs, pressing firmly. Drizzle coated chicken with melted butter; grill or broil for about 5 minutes per side or until fully cooked. Keep chicken warm while you make the sauce.
  • 4. In a large ovenproof skillet, bring stock to a boil; whisk in butter-flour mixture. Bring to a boil and cook, stirring, until mixture thickens. Reduce to a simmer. Add mushrooms, broccoli, prosciutto, garlic, red pepper flakes, lemon juice and wine. Simmer 5 minutes.
  • 5. Place cooked chicken pieces in sauce; sprinkle cheese on top of each chicken piece, dividing evenly. Place in oven and bake just until cheese melts, 3 to 4 minutes.
  • 6. Lift chicken onto plates; use a slotted spoon to ladle vegetables over cheese. Pour sauce over all; serve immediately.
  • Note: If using fresh broccoli, cut florets and steam or microwave just until crisp-tender. If using frozen broccoli spears or florets, thaw and drain well.
  • Tester's note: The sauce may be started about 30 minutes ahead. Prepare as directed, but do not add mushrooms and broccoli. Just before serving, add vegetables and simmer until hot, about 7 minutes.

3 large boneless chicken breasts, cut into strips
6 ounces asiago cheese, cut into 3 (or any good Italian cheese)
1/2 cup olive oil
2 cups Italian seasoned breadcrumbs
4 dried bay leaves

Tips:

  • Chicken Selection: Use boneless, skinless chicken thighs for optimal flavor and texture. Chicken breasts can also be used if preferred.
  • Marinade: Marinating the chicken enhances flavor and tenderness. For best results, marinate for at least 30 minutes, up to overnight.
  • Skewers: Use metal or wooden skewers that have been soaked in water for at least 30 minutes to prevent burning.
  • Grilling Technique: Grill the chicken skewers over medium heat to prevent burning and ensure even cooking. Turn the skewers occasionally for even browning.
  • Temperature Check: Use a meat thermometer to ensure the internal temperature of the chicken reaches 165°F (74°C) for safe consumption.
  • Sauce: Baste the chicken skewers with the reserved marinade or a sauce of your choice during grilling to enhance flavor and prevent dryness.
