SOY-GLAZED CHICKEN BREASTS WITH PICKLED CUCUMBERS



Soy-Glazed Chicken Breasts With Pickled Cucumbers image

The pan-steam method used here ensures boneless, skinless chicken breasts cook quickly while staying moist. The technique works with water, but a flavorful mixture of soy sauce, honey, garlic and coriander infuses the chicken with even more flavor. Depending on the size of the skillet you use, the sauce may reduce a little slower or faster than the time indicated. When you swipe a rubber spatula across the bottom of the skillet, the sauce should hold a spatula-wide trail that fills in with liquid pretty quickly. If you happen to reduce too much, whisk in water one tablespoon at a time until you're back to a shiny sauce that can be drizzled. Rice is an obvious side, but the sliced chicken and pickled cucumbers are really good tucked inside flour tortillas, too.

Time 30m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 12

1 English cucumber, thinly sliced
1 shallot, peeled, halved and thinly sliced lengthwise
1/4 cup rice vinegar
Kosher salt and black pepper
1/4 cup low-sodium soy sauce or tamari
2 tablespoons honey or maple syrup
4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts (1 1/2 to 2 pounds)
2 tablespoons vegetable oil
2 garlic cloves, smashed
1 teaspoon coriander seeds, roughly smashed with the side of a heavy knife
Cilantro leaves and tender stems, for serving
Steamed rice, for serving

Steps:

  • In a medium bowl, toss to combine the cucumber, shallot, vinegar, 1 teaspoon salt and 1/4 teaspoon pepper; set aside while you make the chicken.
  • In a shallow dish, stir soy sauce and honey together; add chicken and turn to coat.
  • In a large skillet, heat oil over medium-high. Add garlic and coriander and stir to coat. Add chicken breasts (reserve the marinade) and cook until browned on both sides, about 3 minutes per side. (Browning happens a little faster than usual here because of the honey and soy; if the marinade is getting too dark, lower the heat slightly.)
  • Add reserved marinade and 1/4 cup water to the skillet. Bring to a simmer, reduce heat to medium-low and cook, covered, until cooked through, 4 to 5 minutes more per side.
  • Uncover the skillet, increase heat to medium-high and cook, turning chicken occasionally, until liquid is reduced and chicken is glazed, about 5 minutes. Serve chicken drizzled with any leftover glaze over rice with cucumber salad and cilantro.

SAUTEED CHICKEN BREASTS WITH SOY GLAZE



Sauteed Chicken Breasts With Soy Glaze image

This is a fabulously easy recipe. I adapted it from Mark Bittman's How to Cook Everything. The recipe calls for marinated chicken thighs. I made the recipe faster using chopped chicken breasts and not marinating. I think marinating would add to the taste, but not measurably. The sauce might be improved by adding some cornstarch to thicken it. I didn't mind a thin sauce.

SLOW-COOKED SOY-GLAZED CHICKEN



Slow-cooked soy-glazed chicken image

Enjoy this soy-glazed chicken as two courses; shred the leg meat and wrap in lettuce leaves for a starter. Then, slice the breast meat and serve with rice

Provided by Tom Kerridge

Categories     Dinner

Time 2h30m

Number Of Ingredients 17

1 chicken (about 2kg)
small piece of ginger, peeled and finely grated (peel reserved)
1 tsp Chinese five-spice powder
3 garlic cloves, finely grated
1 tbsp Shaohsing wine or dry sherry
2 tbsp soy sauce
150ml chicken stock
1 tbsp honey
3 tbsp soy sauce
2 star anise
2 Little Gem lettuces, leaves separated
1 bunch of spring onions, trimmed and finely shredded
½ cucumber, cut into thin strips
1 red chilli, sliced
small bunch of coriander, chopped
50g roasted peanuts or cashews, roughly chopped
cooked rice, to serve

Steps:

  • Combine the marinade ingredients in a small bowl. Sit the chicken in a casserole dish, rub the marinade all over, and put the ginger peel in the cavity. Cover and leave at room temperature to marinate for 1 hr, or in the fridge overnight.
  • Heat the oven to 180C/160C fan/gas 4. Mix the stock ingredients in a jug, then pour over the chicken. Roast for 1 hr, uncovered, then baste with the liquid in the dish. Roast for 30-40 mins more, basting every 10 mins, until the chicken is deep brown. Keep an eye on the glaze in the base of the dish - you may need to add a splash of water to keep it from burning.
  • Leave the chicken to rest for 20 mins, then transfer to a board. Skim the fat from the juices, bring to the boil, then turn off the heat. Shred the thigh and leg meat and wrap in the lettuce leaves along with the spring onions, cucumber, chilli, coriander and nuts. Slice the breast meat and serve withthe rice and warm roasting juices.

Tips:

  • To ensure the chicken breasts are evenly cooked, slice them into cutlets of uniform thickness. You can use a meat mallet to achieve this.
  • To create the perfect soy glaze, balance the sweet and salty elements. Adjust the amounts of soy sauce, honey, and rice vinegar to suit your taste.
  • Don't overcrowd the pan when searing the chicken. Give each piece enough space to sear properly and develop a nice golden crust.
  • Use a high smoke point oil, such as canola or grapeseed oil, to prevent burning during searing. You can also use a combination of oil and butter to add flavor.
  • Keep an eye on the chicken while it's cooking to prevent overcooking. The internal temperature should reach 165°F (74°C) for safe consumption.
  • Let the chicken rest for a few minutes before slicing and serving. This allows the juices to redistribute, resulting in more tender and flavorful meat.
  • Garnish the sautéed chicken breasts with fresh herbs, such as cilantro or parsley, for an extra burst of flavor and color.
