LEMON AND GARLIC CHICKEN WITH CHERRY TOMATOES



Lemon and Garlic Chicken With Cherry Tomatoes image

This is a summery dish to make in the middle of a cold winter (or early spring), but you can find decent cherry tomatoes even now, from Florida or from Mexico. I marinate the breasts in lemon juice, olive oil, garlic and rosemary before I pound them. This makes them very flavorful, a great savory contrast to the sweet tomato topping.

Categories     dinner, quick, main course

Time 30m

Yield Serves 4

Number Of Ingredients 13

2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
3 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
2 garlic cloves, minced or pureed
1 teaspoon chopped fresh rosemary
Salt and freshly ground pepper to taste
2 boneless skinless chicken breasts (most weight 8 to 10 ounces)
1/4 cup dry white wine
2 heaped cups cherry tomatoes, - about 3/4 pound
Pinch of sugar
2 tablespoons all-purpose flour or a gluten- free flour such as rice flour or corn flour
2 tablespoons grapeseed, sunflower or canola oil
1 tablespoon chopped flat-leaf parsley
1/4 cup freshly grated Parmesan (optional)

Steps:

  • Stir together the olive oil, lemon juice, garlic, rosemary, and salt and pepper in a large bowl. Cut each chicken breast into 2 equal pieces (3 if they weigh 12 ounces or more) and place in the bowl. Stir together and refrigerate 15 to 30 minutes.
  • Remove chicken from marinade and pat dry with paper towels (discard marinade). Place two sheets of plastic wrap (1 large sheet if you have extra-wide wrap) on your work surface, overlapping slightly, to make 1 wide sheet, and brush lightly with olive oil. Place a piece of chicken in the middle of plastic sheet and brush lightly with oil. Cover the chicken with another wide layer of plastic wrap. Working from the center to the outside, pound chicken breast with the flat side of a meat tenderizer until about 1/4 inch thick. (Don't pound too hard or you'll tear the meat. If that happens it won't be the end of the world, you'll just have a few pieces to cook.) Repeat with the remaining chicken breast pieces.
  • Season the pounded chicken breasts with salt and pepper on one side only. Dredge lightly in the flour (you will not use all of it) and tap the breasts to remove excess.
  • Turn oven on low. Heat a wide, heavy skillet over high heat and add oil. When oil is hot, place one or two pieces of chicken in the pan - however many will fit without crowding. Cook for 1 1/2 minutes, until bottom is browned in spots. Turn over and brown other side, about 1 1/2 minutes. (Do not overcook or chicken will be dry.) Transfer to a platter or sheet pan and keep warm in the oven. If there is more than a tablespoon of fat in the pan, pour some off into a jar or bowl.
  • Turn heat on burner down to medium-high. Add wine to pan and stir with a wooden spoon to deglaze. Add cherry tomatoes and cook, stirring often or tossing in the pan, until they begin to shrivel and burst. Add sugar and salt and pepper to taste and continue to cook, tossing the tomatoes in the pan and stirring often, for 5 to 10 minutes, until tomatoes have collapsed but are still intact. Top chicken breasts with the tomatoes, sprinkle with parsley and with Parmesan if using, and serve.

Tips:

  • Use a nonstick skillet: This will help prevent the chicken from sticking and make it easier to clean up.
  • Season the chicken well: Before cooking, season the chicken with salt, pepper, and any other desired spices. This will help it develop flavor.
  • Sear the chicken in a hot skillet: This will help create a crispy outer layer and lock in the juices.
  • Add the cherry tomatoes and garlic: Once the chicken is seared, add the cherry tomatoes and garlic to the skillet. Cook until the tomatoes start to soften and the garlic is fragrant.
  • Add the white wine: Pour the white wine into the skillet and let it simmer for a few minutes. This will help deglaze the pan and add flavor to the sauce.
  • Add the chicken broth and cream: Stir in the chicken broth and cream. Bring the mixture to a simmer and let it cook for a few minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through.
  • Serve immediately: Once the chicken is cooked through, serve it immediately over rice or pasta.

Conclusion:

This sautéed chicken with cherry tomatoes is a quick and easy weeknight meal that is packed with flavor. The chicken is juicy and tender, the cherry tomatoes are sweet and bursting with flavor, and the sauce is creamy and flavorful. This dish is sure to please the whole family.
