Steps:

Add oil to the pan, swirl and when very hot and smoking, add chicken breasts, skin side down. Leave on flame for another minute or two until pan is again very hot, then place the pan in the oven. *When golden brown and crispy (about 3-4 minutes) turn. Continue to turn about every 3-4 minutes and continue to cook until done. Remove to a warm plate. *Add squash to the pan and place in the oven. Preheat stovetop burner to high if needed. Cook in oven for 3-4 minutes until slightly browned, then place pan back on the burner. Add remaining vegetables and saute until slightly browned. Add stock, brown sugar, sage and bring to a boil. After thickened, add butter.(can cut in half) Season to taste with salt and pepper. * Divide vegetables between plates, add chicken breast, drizzle with sauce and garnish with the shaved parmesan.

Tips:

  • Use high-quality ingredients: The better the ingredients, the better the dish will taste. This means using fresh, organic chicken, vegetables, and herbs whenever possible.
  • Don't overcrowd the pan: When cooking chicken, it's important to give it enough space so that it can brown properly. If you overcrowd the pan, the chicken will steam instead of brown.
  • Cook the chicken over medium heat: Cooking the chicken over medium heat will help to ensure that it cooks evenly throughout without burning.
  • Don't overcook the chicken: Overcooked chicken is dry and tough. Cook the chicken just until it is cooked through, which is about 165 degrees Fahrenheit.
  • Let the chicken rest before serving: Letting the chicken rest before serving will help the juices to redistribute throughout the meat, making it more tender and flavorful.

Chicken is a versatile and delicious protein that can be enjoyed in many different ways. Whether you're looking for a quick and easy weeknight meal or a special occasion dish, there's a chicken recipe out there for you.
