Categories     main-dish

Time 1h50m

Yield 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 12

Two 3 1/2- to 4-pound chickens, cut in eighths
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
All-purpose flour
1/2 cup good olive oil
8 whole garlic cloves
1 1/2 pounds assorted wild mushrooms, such as porcini and cremini, stems removed and (1 1/2-inch) diced
8 sprigs fresh thyme, tied with kitchen string
1/4 cup dry sherry
1 tablespoon minced garlic (3 cloves)
2 cups white wine, such as Pinot Grigio
2 cups good chicken stock, preferably homemade
3 tablespoons unsalted butter, at room temperature

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 325 degrees.
  • Pat the chicken dry with paper towels and sprinkle both sides liberally with salt and pepper. Place 1/2 cup flour in a bowl and dredge the chicken in the flour. In a large (12-inch) ovenproof pot such as Le Creuset, heat the oil. Add the chicken in three batches (don't crowd them!) and brown lightly over medium-high heat for 3 to 5 minutes on each side. Remove the chicken to a plate and continue until all the chicken is browned.
  • Add the whole garlic cloves, mushrooms, and thyme to the pot and cook over medium heat for 5 minutes, stirring occasionally. Add the sherry and cook for 1 minute, scraping up the brown bits. Add the minced garlic and cook for 2 more minutes. Add the wine, chicken stock, 1 tablespoon salt, and 1 teaspoon pepper and bring to a simmer. Add the chicken (large pieces first), cover, and place in the middle of the oven for 30 to 35 minutes, until the chicken is cooked through (about 165 degrees on an instant-read thermometer).
  • Remove the chicken to a bowl and discard the thyme. With a fork, mash together the butter and 1/4 cup flour and add it to the sauce. Simmer, stirring constantly, over medium heat for 5 minutes, until slightly thickened. Season to taste (it should be highly seasoned), put the chicken back in the sauce, and serve hot.

SKILLET CHICKEN WITH MUSHROOMS AND CARAMELIZED ONIONS



Skillet Chicken With Mushrooms and Caramelized Onions image

This comforting one-pot dinner is reminiscent of a rich French onion soup, but made in less time and with lighter ingredients. Cooking the onions in a hot, dry pan forces them to release their moisture, so that they shrink and become silky and sweet in 30 minutes. Serve everything directly from the pan, with some crusty bread to soak up all the juices, or shred the chicken and pile it on top of buttered noodles. For something green, stir in some spinach to wilt at the end or serve alongside a simple green salad or roasted broccoli.

Time 30m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 12

5 tablespoons olive oil
2 tablespoons plus 2 teaspoons sherry vinegar
2 teaspoons honey
1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
1/4 teaspoon red-pepper flakes
Kosher salt and black pepper
1 1/2 pounds boneless, skinless chicken thighs, cut into 3-inch pieces
2 medium yellow onions, thinly sliced (about 4 cups)
3/4 pound cremini mushrooms, stems removed and thinly sliced (about 4 cups)
1/2 cup fresh flat-leaf parsley or dill leaves and fine stems, roughly chopped
1/4 cup grated Parmesan or pecorino (optional)
Bread or cooked pasta, for serving

Steps:

  • In a large mixing bowl, combine 2 tablespoons oil, 2 tablespoons vinegar, the honey, mustard, red-pepper flakes and 1 teaspoon salt; whisk until smooth. Pat the chicken dry and season with salt and pepper, then add to the mixture, coating it well. Set aside at room temperature, stirring it once while you make the onions.
  • Heat a 12-inch cast-iron or heavy skillet over medium-high until very hot, 1 1/2 to 2 minutes, then add the onions in an even layer. Season with salt, then cook, mostly undisturbed, for 4 minutes more, stirring every minute or so. Add the mushrooms, season with salt, and stir to combine. (It will look crowded, and that's OK.) Allow to cook mostly undisturbed until the mushrooms shrink and start to brown, about 4 minutes, stirring every minute or so.
  • Stir in the remaining 3 tablespoons olive oil and allow the onions to cook until they start to color, stirring and lowering the heat as necessary to avoid burning, about 2 minutes. Push the onions and mushrooms to the edges of the skillet, then add the chicken pieces to the center. Pour any remaining marinade (there will be very little) over the onions and mushrooms. Cook undisturbed for 4 to 5 minutes, then combine the chicken and vegetables and cook, stirring occasionally, until the chicken is cooked through, about 10 minutes more. (Reduce the heat to medium if the onions look like they are burning at any point.)
  • Add the remaining 2 teaspoons sherry vinegar, stirring and scraping up anything on the bottom of the skillet. Season to taste with salt.
  • Remove from the heat and top with the parsley and cheese, if using. Serve with bread or pasta.

Categories     Entree

Number Of Ingredients 13

1 1/2 lb (700g) boneless skinless chicken breasts
Kosher salt and black pepper
1 teaspoon oregano
1 teaspoon paprika
1 teaspoon coriander
2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
1 tablespoon ghee or unsalted butter
12 ounce fresh large mushrooms, (sliced)
1/2 cup chicken broth
3 green onions, (chopped)
2 garlic cloves, (minced)
kosher salt and black pepper
Parsley for garnish

Steps:

  • Heat oven to 200 degrees F. You will use it to keep the chicken warm.
  • Cut chicken breasts in halves the horizontal way to make thinner chicken cutlets. Pat dry and season with salt and pepper. Combine oregano, paprika, and coriander in a small bowl. Season the chicken with the spice mixture on both sides.
  • In a large skillet heat 2 tbsp extra virgin olive oil until shimmering but not smoking. Add the chicken cutlets and cook for 3 to 4 minutes on one side, then turn over and cook for another 3 minutes or so. To check for doneness, cut into a piece with a thin-bladed knife and take a peek. Transfer the chicken to an ovenproof platter and put it in the oven.
  • In the same skillet, now add a tiny bit more extra virgin olive oil. Add ghee and melt. Sautee the mushrooms for 5 minutes. Add broth, green onions, garlic, salt and pepper. Bring to a boil.
  • Add the chicken back to the pan, spoon some of the sauce on top. Serve immediately.

Categories     Meat and Poultry Recipes     Chicken     Chicken Breast Recipes     Pan-Fried

Yield 2

Number Of Ingredients 12

2 skinless, boneless chicken breast halves - pounded thin
¼ cup all-purpose flour
salt and ground black pepper to taste
2 teaspoons butter
2 teaspoons vegetable oil
1 (4.5 ounce) can mushrooms, drained
1 cup water
1 packet chicken bouillon granules
1 teaspoon cornstarch
½ teaspoon dried parsley
¼ teaspoon garlic powder

Add chicken and cook until lightly browned on both sides and cooked through, 3 to 4 minutes. Remove chicken and set aside.

Tips:

  • Mise en place: Before you start cooking, make sure you have all of your ingredients prepped and measured out. This will help you stay organized and avoid any scrambling later on.
  • Use a good quality chicken: The quality of your chicken will make a big difference in the final dish. Look for chicken that is free-range and organic, if possible.
  • Brown the chicken well: Browning the chicken adds flavor and helps to keep it moist. Make sure to brown the chicken in a hot skillet over medium-high heat.
  • Use a good quality Beaujolais: Beaujolais is a light-bodied red wine that pairs well with chicken. Look for a Beaujolais that is fruity and has a slightly acidic finish.
  • Don't overcook the mushrooms: Mushrooms should be cooked until they are tender but still have a little bit of bite to them. Overcooking them will make them rubbery.
  • Serve immediately: Chicken sauté with Beaujolais and mushrooms is best served immediately after it is cooked. This will help to preserve the flavors and textures of the dish.

Conclusion:

Chicken sauté with Beaujolais and mushrooms is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for a weeknight meal. The combination of chicken, Beaujolais, and mushrooms creates a flavorful and satisfying dish that is sure to please everyone at the table. So next time you're looking for a quick and easy dinner recipe, give this one a try.
