PAN SEARED CHICKEN BREAST WITH HERB JUS AND POTATO-VEGETABLE HASH

Steps:

• Heat a large saute pan over high heat and add the oil. Season both sides of chicken breast with salt and pepper, to taste. Sear the chicken, skin side down, 4 to 5 minutes. Reduce the heat to medium, flip the chicken, cover the pan and cook on second side for 7 to 8 minutes.
• After second side has been cooked, add the wine, garlic, and herbs and continue to cook until the liquid is reduced by half.
• Transfer the chicken to a serving platter and allow it to rest.
• Remove the pan from the heat and whisk in the butter, scraping up the bits from the bottom of the pan.
• Serve the chicken with Potato-Vegetable Hash and the pan sauce. Garnish with chives.
• Using a box grater, shred the potato, zucchini and squash, and add them to a large bowl.
• Stir in the onion, egg, flour, garlic, herbs, and Cajun spice. Blend well. Add more flour if mixture is too wet. The mixture should hold its shape when squeezed.
• Heat a large saute pan over medium heat. Add 2 tablespoons grapeseed oil. Portion the hash into 2 cakes, then gently put them in the pan. Cook until golden brown, about 2 to 3 minutes, then flip and cook until the other side is browned. Remove them from the pan to a paper towel and season with salt, to taste. Serve warm.

AIRLINE CHICKEN BREAST

Steps:

• Slice off 1/2 of each chicken wing by cutting through the joint where the wing meets the drumette. Slice through the skin between the thighs and breasts. Make a shallow cut along the breast bone and 2 deep cuts on either side, separating the breasts.
• Slice each breast off the carcass using the tip of the knife, keeping the blade pressed against the bone. Cut through the cartilage to remove breast with the wing attached.
• Remove the tenders and trim as needed. Season with a drizzle of olive oil, salt, pepper, herbes de Provence, and cayenne pepper.
• Push your finger gently under the skin of each breast, right next to the wing bone, to separate it from the meat. Slide 1 tender under the skin, center it, and smooth over the skin. Sprinkle salt over breasts.
• Heat 1 tablespoon olive oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Add chicken breasts, skin-side down. Cook until bottom is browned, 6 to 7 minutes. Flip, reduce heat to medium, and cook until no longer pink on the inside, 7 to 10 minutes more. Add 1 tablespoon butter, rosemary, and thyme. Baste chicken with the butter. Remove chicken from the skillet.
• Pour stock into the pan; increase heat to high. Boil until reduced to desired thickness, about 2 minutes. Turn off heat and whisk in remaining butter. Slice each chicken breast into thirds and spoon the pan sauce on top.

Steps:

• Season chicken on both sides with salt and pepper.
• Heat olive oil in a heavy skillet over medium-high heat until it starts to shimmer. Place chicken breasts in skillet skin side down. Sprinkle with fresh herbs. Do not disturb the breasts until the skin side sears, 5 or 6 minutes. Turn chicken.
• Cook until internal temperature reaches 150 degrees F, about 5 minutes. Add vinegar and butter to pan with chicken. Shake pan gently until butter melts and internal temperature of chicken reaches 160 to 165 degrees F, 2 to 3 minutes more. Add a splash of chicken broth or water if sauce needs to be thinned.

PAN SEARED AIRLINE BREAST

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
• Rinse and pat dry the chicken. Preheat a heavy-bottomed skillet over medium heat. Combine paprika, granulated garlic, salt and pepper, in a small bowl. Rub seasoning mix all over the chicken. When skillet is hot, add oil and sear chicken, skin side first, turn over and sear other side. Remove to a sheet tray and put into the preheated oven to cook through, about 15 minutes.
• To the pan you used to sear the chicken, add in the onions and leeks. Saute for 4 to 5 minutes or until lightly caramelized. Add garlic and olives and olive juice. Saute for 2 minutes more, then deglaze the pan with white wine. Reduce wine by half. Finish sauce by stirring in thyme and butter. Adjust seasoning, if necessary, and keep warm.
• When chicken is done, remove from oven, place on serving platter, and pour any juices into vegetable mixture. Pour over chicken and serve immediately.

ROASTED CHICKEN BREAST

• Place chicken breasts in a shallow baking dish, skin side up.
• Sprinkle each breast with salt, pepper and 1/2 teaspoon thyme.
• Brush with melted butter and roast 1 hour at 350 degrees or until done.

AIRLINE BREAST OF CHICKEN FORESTIERE

Steps:

• 1. To make the chicken breasts: Preheat the oven to 400°F. Place a non-stick, 10-inch skillet on the stovetop over medium-high heat and add oil. Season both sides of the chicken breasts liberally with salt and pepper. When the pan is hot, sear, or brown, the chicken pieces skin side down. Sear until the skin becomes very well browned and crisp, about six to nine minutes. You may need to sear the chicken in batches to avoid overcrowding the pan. Once all of the chicken has been seared, place the pieces meat side down on a clean baking sheet and set aside. You are searing only the skin side for texture; searing the meat side will dry out the meat. 2. Add the wine, thyme, and margarine to the same pan with the rendered fat, and cook until the liquid has reduced by half. 3. Place the baking sheet with the chicken in the oven and carefully pour the reduced cooking liquid into the bottom of the pan. Roast for nine minutes until the chicken is firm to the touch yet still has a little resistance to it when poked with your finger. 4. To make the sauce: Place a 10-inch skillet on the stovetop over medium heat and add the margarine, shallots, garlic, and thyme. Cook gently until softened and slightly browned. Add the mushrooms and the veal stock and cook until the mushrooms are tender and the sauce has reduced and thickened enough to glaze the mushrooms; this will take about 13 to 15 minutes. 5. To finish the dish: When the chicken is ready, remove the pan from the oven and place the chicken pieces on a cutting board. Pour the remaining cooking liquid from the baking sheet into the mushroom sauce and stir well to combine. Season the sauce with salt and pepper. 6. To serve, cut each breast into five slices and fan them onto a plate, being sure to serve the wing piece as well. Generously cover with mushroom sauce. I like this dish served with Israeli couscous or pommes purée. Recipe posted with permission from Le Marais: A Rare Steakhouse - Well Done, by Mark Hennessey and Jose de Mereilles

BEAUTIFUL ROAST CHICKEN WITH SAUCE CHASSEUR

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350°F. Heat oil in a 12-inch stainless steel ovenproof skillet over medium-high. Season chicken with salt and pepper. Sear chicken in skillet, skin side down, until skin is crisp and golden brown, about 4 minutes. Flip chicken; add shallots, cut sides down, and press into skillet. Cook chicken and shallots until shallots are browned, about 4 minutes. Add thyme and wine to skillet. Bring to a simmer over medium-high; add broth, and return to a simmer. Carefully transfer skillet (so skin of chicken stays dry) to preheated oven, and roast until thermometer inserted into thickest part of breast registers 155°F, about 20 minutes.
• Remove skillet from oven. Using tongs, place chicken breasts and shallots on a plate; tent with aluminum foil to keep warm while making sauce. Pour broth mixture through a fine wire-mesh strainer into a heatproof bowl or measuring cup, and set aside. Wipe skillet clean, and return to high heat.
• Melt butter in skillet, and add mushrooms in a single layer. Cook, without stirring, until browned on one side, about 2 minutes. Shake skillet to loosen mushrooms; cook, without stirring, until mushrooms just begin to release their juices, about 2 minutes. Add strained broth mixture and cream to skillet, and bring to a boil over high. Reduce heat to medium-low, and simmer, stirring occasionally, until mushrooms are tender and sauce is thick enough to coat the back of a spoon, 10 to 15 minutes. Remove from heat, and stir in tomato, chives, and tarragon; season with salt to taste.
• Slice chicken breasts crosswise into 1-inch-thick pieces. Divide chicken among plates, and serve with sauce chasseur.

ROASTED CHICKEN PICCATA

Steps:

• To prepare the airline breast, begin with a bone in breast, wing attached. Extend the wing and cut through and around the skin just below the wing joint. Bend the wing tip back and pull right off the joint. Use your knife to carefully scrape any meat and skin back to expose a clean bone. Using a pairing knife, remove the rib bones as well (You can also have your butcher do this for you.)
• Place breasts in a ziplock bag, cover with combined salt/sugar/water brine and refrigerate for 12-24 hours.
• After brining period, remove breasts from brine and rinse well. Pat dry with paper towels and arrange on a cooling rack, set inside a cookie sheet.
• Dry uncovered in the refrigerator for 12-24 hours. The skin will have a translucent look when removed from the fridge.
• Preheat the oven to 400°F.
• Season the chicken lightly on both sides with kosher salt.
• Heat a large ovenproof sauce pan over medium-high heat (2 pans can be used to accommodate the chicken breasts if need be), we like to use a Paella Pan this large pan can accommodate up to 6 breasts and because it does not have a long handle it fits nicely in our oven. Put 1/4 cup of clarified butter or oil in each pan (if using 2) or 1/2 cup in one pan and cook the chicken halves, skin side down, for about 4 minutes or until golden brown.
• Transfer the pan to the oven and cook for about 6-10 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through (depends on the oven and altitude).
• Remove the chickens from the pan, sprinkle with fresh cracked pepper and let them rest for about 5 minutes.
• Put the lemon slices in the pan and let them cook over high heat for about 1 minute so that they caramelize.
• Add the wine and cook, stirring with a wooden spoon and scraping up any browned bits, for 2 to 3 minutes, until reduced by half.
• Add the unsalted butter and capers and stir the sauce to emulsify the butter with the pan juices.
• Squeeze the lemon juice into the sauce, remove from the heat, and continue stirring until blended.
• Stir in the parsley.
• Put a chicken half on each serving plate, atop the mashed potatoes, skin side up, and spoon equal amounts of sauce over each. Place herb roasted onions on the side and serve immediately.
• In a large pot, bring 2 quarts of water and 1 tablespoon of salt to a boil. Meanwhile, peel the potatoes and cut them into 1 1/2-inch cubes. Add them to the boiling water and bring the water back to a boil. Lower the heat and simmer uncovered for 10 to 15 minutes, until the potatoes fall apart easily when pierced with a fork.
• Meanwhile, heat the milk and butter in a small saucepan, making sure it doesn't boil. Set aside until the potatoes are done.
• As soon as the potatoes are tender, drain them in a colander. Place a food mill fitted with a small disk/blade over a heatproof bowl. Pass the potatoes through the food mill, turning the handle back and forth. As soon as the potatoes are mashed, stir in the hot milk mixture with a whisk or rubber spatula. Add enough buttermilk to make the potatoes creamy. Add 1 teaspoon of salt and the pepper, and serve hot. To keep the potatoes warm, place the bowl over a pan of simmering water for up to 30 minutes. You can add a little extra hot milk to keep them creamy.

EASY PAN-ROASTED CHICKEN BREASTS WITH LEMON AND ROSEMARY PAN SAUCE RECIPE

Steps:

• Adjust oven rack to center position and preheat oven to 450°F. Pat chicken breasts dry and season generously with salt and pepper. Heat oil in an oven-safe medium stainless steel skillet over high heat until just starting to smoke. Carefully lay chicken breasts into hot skillet skin side down. Cook without moving until skin is deep golden brown and very crisp, about 6 minutes. Carefully flip chicken breasts and transfer skillet to the oven.
• While chicken roasts, add stock to a liquid measuring cup and sprinkle gelatin over the top. Set aside.
• Cook chicken until an instant-read thermometer inserted into the thickest part of the chicken breasts registers 150°F, about 7 to 12 minutes. Remove skillet from oven and transfer chicken to a cutting board. Set aside to rest while you make the pan sauce.
• Pour off all but 1 tablespoon of fat from the skillet and place over high heat. Add shallots and rosemary and cook, stirring, until softened and fragrant, about 30 seconds. Add stock/gelatin mixture and lemon zest and cook, scraping up any browned bits from the bottom of the pan with a wooden spoon. Continue cooking on high heat until sauce is reduced by about two-thirds, 5 to 8 minutes. Stir in butter, soy sauce, and lemon juice and cook at a hard boil until emulsified, about 30 seconds. Remove from heat and set aside.
• Slice chicken breasts into three pieces on a sharp bias and transfer to individual serving plates. Taste sauce and season with salt and pepper. Spoon sauce over the chicken and serve immediately.
