6 ounces thick cut bacon, cut into 3/4-inch dice
4 boneless skinless chicken breast halves
1/4 cup all-purpose flour
1/4 cup finely chopped yellow onion

4 tablespoons unsalted butter, cut into pieces
1 tablespoon chopped fresh thyme

Steps:

  • In a large, heavy saucepan, cook the bacon over medium-high heat until crisp and the fat is rendered, 4 to 5 minutes. Remove and drain on paper towels. Drain off all but 1 tablespoon of the fat.
  • Season the chicken on both sides with Essence. Dredge in the flour to coat lightly, shaking to remove any excess.

Add the onions and cook, stirring, for 3 minutes. Add the Calvados and cook, stirring, to deglaze the pan. Simmer until reduced by half. Add the cider, bring to a boil and cook until reduced by half. Add the apples and cook, stirring, until tender, about 2 minutes. Add the cream and simmer until reduced by half. Reduce the heat to medium-low and add the butter, several pieces at a time, and cook, stirring, until each is incorporated. Stir in the thyme. Return the chicken and any accumulated juices to the pan and cook until the chicken is heated through and cooked all the way, turning, 1 to 2 minutes.
  • Remove from the heat and divide the chicken and sauce among 4 plates. Garnish each serving with the bacon and fresh chives and serve.

Categories     main-dish

Time 1h25m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 33

4 (6 to 7-ounce) boneless, skinless chicken breast halves
2 tablespoons plus 1/2 teaspoon Essence or Creole Seasoning, recipe follows
1/2 cup plus 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
1 cup fine dry bread crumbs
1 large egg beaten with 1 tablespoon milk to make an egg wash
2 tablespoons olive oil
4 tablespoons (1/2 stick) unsalted butter, cut into pieces
1/4 cup minced yellow onions
1 tablespoon chopped garlic
3/4 pound assorted exotic mushrooms, such as shiitakes, chanterelles, and black trumpets, stemmed, wiped clean, and sliced (about 4 cups)
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon ground white pepper
1/4 cup dry white wine
1 cup chicken stock, or canned, low-sodium chicken broth
1/2 cup heavy cream
4 large boiled artichoke hearts, recipe follows, cut into 1/4-inch thick slices
1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
2 tablespoons chopped green onions
1 tablespoon minced fresh parsley leaves
1 tablespoon dried thyme
2 1/2 tablespoons paprika
2 tablespoons salt
2 tablespoons garlic powder
1 tablespoon black pepper
1 tablespoon onion powder
1 tablespoon cayenne pepper
1 tablespoon dried oregano
1 gallon water
4 large globe artichokes, about 10 ounces each
1 lemon, halved
4 bay leaves
3 tablespoons salt
2 teaspoons whole black peppercorns

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Line a baking sheet with aluminum foil and set aside.
  • Season each chicken breast half with 1/2 teaspoon of the Essence and set aside.
  • Combine 1/2 cup of the flour with 1 1/2 teaspoons of the Essence in a shallow bowl. In another shallow bowl, combine the bread crumbs with the remaining tablespoon Essence. Put the egg wash in a third bowl.
  • Dredge the chicken first in the flour, shaking to remove any excess, then in the egg wash, letting any excess drip off, and then in the bread crumbs.
  • Heat the oil and melt 1 tablespoon of the butter in a large skillet or saute pan over medium-high heat. Add the chicken in 2 batches and cook until golden brown, 1 1/2 to 2 minutes per side. Transfer the chicken to the prepared baking sheet and roast until cooked through, 15 to 18 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, in a large clean skillet, heat 2 tablespoons of the remaining butter over medium-high heat. Add the yellow onions and cook, stirring, until soft, about 3 minutes. Add the garlic and cook, stirring, until fragrant, about 30 seconds. Add the mushrooms and cook until soft and they give off their liquid, about 4 minutes. Add the salt and pepper and stir. Add the remaining 2 tablespoons flour, stir to incorporate, and cook until the mixture is thick, about 1 minute. Add the wine and cook, stirring, until evaporated, 30 seconds to 1 minute. Add the chicken stock, stir well to incorporate, and simmer until the mixture is thickened, about 2 minutes. Add the cream, bring to a simmer, and cook until the mixture is thickened enough to coat the back of a spoon, about 2 minutes. Add the sliced artichoke hearts and lemon juice and stir to incorporate. Remove from the heat and stir in the remaining tablespoon butter, the green onions, and parsley. Adjust the seasoning, to taste.
  • To serve, place 1 chicken breast in the center of each of four large plates and top each with an equal portion of the sauce. Serve immediately.
  • Combine all ingredients thoroughly.
  • Recipe from "New New Orleans Cooking", by Emeril Lagasse and Jessie Tirsch, published by William and Morrow, 1993.
  • Bring the water, bay leaves, salt, and peppercorns to a boil in a large pot.
  • With a small, sharp knife, trim the tough outer skin from the artichoke stems and remove the bottom row of leaves. Using long handled tongs, carefully add the artichokes and lemons to the pot and return to a boil. Place 2 small heavy plates on top of the artichokes to keep them submerged, lower the heat, and cook at a low boil until the artichokes are tender, 20 to 25 minutes. Drain in a colander and let the artichokes sit until cool enough to handle.
  • Pull off the large outer leaves from the artichokes, and discard or reserve for another use. Remove and discard the spiky inner leaves. Scrape the hairy choke from each heart and slice as needed or serve whole.

CHICKEN NORMANDY (ESCALOPE DE POULET A LA NORMANDE)



Chicken Normandy (Escalope de Poulet a la Normande) image

This is how my mum and grandma make chicken Normandy. The main things in this recipe are to have the chicken breasts really tender and the sauce not too liquidy. Bon appetit!

Provided by CeliaBC

Time 40m

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 8

1 tablespoon olive oil, or as needed
4 (5 ounce) skinless, boneless chicken breasts
1 (4.5 ounce) can button mushrooms, drained
1 cup heavy cream
1 large egg yolk
1 tablespoon Dijon mustard, or more to taste
salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste
2 cups hot cooked rice, or as needed

Steps:

  • Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Pan-sear chicken breasts in the hot oil until lightly browned, 2 to 3 minutes per side. Remove chicken breasts from the skillet.
  • Add drained mushrooms to the pan juices in the skillet and cook until they start to pop, about 5 minutes.
  • Whisk together cream, egg yolk, Dijon mustard, salt, and pepper in a small bowl; pour into the skillet with the mushrooms. Return chicken breasts to the skillet and simmer over medium-low heat, stirring occasionally to prevent the egg yolk from setting, until chicken is no longer pink in the center and the juices run clear, 15 to 20 minutes. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center of the chicken breast should read at least 165 degrees F (74 degrees C).
  • Serve with cooked white rice.
