CHICKEN BREASTS WITH GARLIC AND PARSLEY
This a great Jacque Pepin recipe. My DH told me he can have it every day. I cut down on the butter to 1 TBS and it was still very good. Make sure that you dry the chicken breast cubes well with paper towels before you season them and don't dredge them in the flour until just before sautéing. If possible, prepare this dish in a 12-inch skillet (preferably nonstick), which is large enough to accommodate the chicken cubes in one layer.

CHICKEN BREAST WITH GARLIC AND PARSLEY
Steps:
- Preheat oven to 250 degrees F.
- Core tomatoes, cut in half horizontally, and remove seeds. Sprinkle with salt and pepper. Place tomato halves cut side up on a rack in the oven and cook for 1 to 1 1/2 hours, or until shriveled and partially dried. Puree half the tomatoes in a blender until liquefied, then add remaining tomatoes, olive oil, salt, and pepper. Puree until smooth. (Thin with a few tablespoons water if sauce seems thick.) Strain to remove any seeds and skins, and set aside until serving time.
- Preheat oven to 400 degrees F. Blanch garlic in a small pot of rapidly boiling, salted water for 1 minute. Drain and set aside to cool.
- Create a pocket for stuffing by running your fingers between the skin and meat of each breast, leaving one side attached. Season all over with salt and pepper.
- In a small bowl, combine chopped parsley and garlic. Divide into 6 equal parts and stuff each breast between skin and meat, spreading evenly. If necessary, tie skin to breasts to keep in place.
- Heat chicken fat or oil in a large, ovenproof skillet over medium high heat. Saute chicken, skin side down first, until golden brown, about 2 minutes per side. Transfer to oven and bake about 10 to 15 minutes. Set aside for 5 minutes, to redistribute juices before serving.
- Whisk tomato puree and coat 6 serving plates with it. Cut each breast into 1/2inch slices, across width. Arrange slices over puree and serve.

Steps:
- Preheat a gas, charcoal or electric grill until moderately hot. Bring a small saucepan of water to a boil, add garlic and boil 1 minute. Drain. Cut garlic into paper-thin slices and toss in a small bowl with the parsley and a little salt and pepper.
- Stuff about 1 teaspoon of the garlic mixture under the skin of each chicken half, in breast and thigh areas. Put chickens on a plate, cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate until ready to use. Reserve remaining garlic mixture.
- When ready to cook, grill chicken halves 7 to 10 minutes on each side, until they are just cooked through. Make sure all pinkness disappears but do not overcook.
- Meanwhile, melt the butter in a saute pan. Add remaining garlic mixture and saute gently until barely golden. Remove from heat. Add lemon juice and season to taste with salt and pepper.
- Put a chicken half on each of 4 warmed plates and spoon the sauteed garlic mixture over each. Serve at once.

Tips:
- Choose the right chicken breasts: Look for boneless, skinless chicken breasts that are about the same size so they cook evenly.
- Pound the chicken breasts: This helps to flatten them out and tenderize them, which results in a more evenly cooked and juicy chicken breast.
- Season the chicken breasts: Use a combination of salt, pepper, garlic powder, and onion powder to season the chicken breasts. You can also add other herbs and spices to taste.
- Sear the chicken breasts: Sear the chicken breasts in a hot skillet over medium-high heat until they are browned on both sides. This helps to lock in the juices and flavor.
- Reduce the heat and cook the chicken breasts: Reduce the heat to medium-low and cook the chicken breasts for about 10 minutes per side, or until they are cooked through. Use a meat thermometer to ensure that the internal temperature of the chicken breasts is 165 degrees Fahrenheit.
- Let the chicken breasts rest: Once the chicken breasts are cooked, remove them from the skillet and let them rest for a few minutes before slicing and serving. This helps to keep the juices in the chicken breasts.
Conclusion:
Chicken breasts with garlic and parsley is a simple yet flavorful dish that can be enjoyed for lunch or dinner. The combination of garlic and parsley adds a delicious savory flavor to the chicken breasts, and the lemon juice helps to brighten up the dish. This recipe is also a great way to use up leftover chicken breasts. Simply cook the chicken breasts according to the recipe and then shred or dice them. Add the shredded or diced chicken breasts to your favorite salad, soup, or pasta dish.
