Best 5 Chicken Breasts With Horseradish Scallion Crust Recipes

BAKED CHICKEN BREASTS WITH HORSERADISH CREAM SAUCE

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350ºF.
• In a medium-size saucepan, melt butter over medium heat.
• Stir in flour and cook, stirring, for 1 minute without browning.
• Whisk in milk, bring to a boil, and cook, stirring, until sauce is thick and smooth, about 3 minutes.
• Stir in horseradish, sour cream, sugar, mustard, and vinegar.
• Season with salt and pepper to taste.
• Arrange chicken breasts, skin side up, in a baking dish.
• Spoon half the horseradish sauce over chicken.
• Bake 45 minutes until chicken is tender.
• Broil chicken for 5 minutes to brown.
• Reheat remaining sauce and serve over chicken.

ALMOND-CRUSTED CHICKEN

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
• Put the almonds in a mini-chopper or food processor and pulse until finely chopped. Transfer to a shallow dish and stir in the pimenton. Lightly whisk the egg whites in another shallow dish. Pat the chicken dry and season both sides with salt and pepper. Dip the chicken into the egg white and shake off any excess. Dredge the chicken in the almonds to coat. Place on a baking sheet, cover and refrigerate for 20 minutes.
• Set a wire rack on a baking sheet. Heat a medium nonstick skillet over medium-low heat and add the butter and 1 tablespoon of the oil. Place the chicken smooth-side down in the pan and increase the heat to medium-high. Cook, turning once, until a golden brown crust forms, 3 to 4 minutes per side. Transfer the chicken to the prepared baking sheet and bake until an instant-read thermometer inserted into the thickest part of the chicken registers 160 degrees F, about 20 minutes.
• Whisk together the vinegar and salt and pepper to taste in a medium bowl. Gradually whisk in the remaining 3 tablespoons olive oil. Add the salad greens and toss to coat. Divide the salad evenly among 4 plates and serve with a piece of chicken.

BAKED CHICKEN BREASTS WITH PARMESAN CRUST

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F. Mix the mustard, thyme, 1/2 teaspoon salt and the cayenne in a medium bowl. Add the chicken breasts and turn to coat completely; set aside. In a medium shallow bowl, combine the parmesan and panko. Dredge the chicken pieces in the panko mixture, coating evenly and heavily, and pressing the coating into the meat. Put the chicken on a rack set over a baking sheet, spray with a quick burst of cooking spray and put the sheet in the middle of the oven. Bake until the chicken is golden and cooked through, 15 to 20 minutes. Let rest 5 minutes before cutting or serving.

HORSERADISH BREADED CHICKEN BREAST

Steps:

• Pound chicken breasts until they are about 1/4 of an inch thin.
• Mix together horseradish, mustard, lemon juice, salt, pepper, chives and thyme.
• Coat chicken breasts in the horseradish mix.
• Coat chicken breasts in bread crumbs.
• Heat up vegetable oil in a large pan. Add the chicken breasts to the pan. Once a nice golden-brown crust forms on the bottom, flip the chicken over and cook the other side. By the time the crust browns up, the chicken should be done--maybe 7-10 minutes.

ROAST CHICKEN AND SCALLIONS

Steps:

• Put a flameproof shallow baking pan on rack in upper third of oven and preheat oven to 500°F.
• Pat chicken dry. Cut scallions into 2-inch-long pieces, then toss with chicken, oil, 1 teaspoon salt, and 1/2 teaspoon pepper in a bowl. Roast, without crowding, in hot pan until chicken is browned in spots and just cooked through, about 25 minutes.
• Transfer chicken and scallions to a serving dish, then straddle pan over 2 burners. Add wine and cook over medium heat, scraping up brown bits, 1 minute. Pour sauce over chicken.
