Time 40m

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 9

4 boneless chicken breast halves (or cutlets, about 1 1/4 to 1 1/2 pounds)
1/2 teaspoon seasoned salt
1 tablespoons butter
1 tablespoon extra virgin olive oil
1/2 cup chicken broth (low sodium)
1/2 cup half-and-half (or light cream)
1 tablespoon flour
1 teaspoon dried dill weed (or 2 teaspoons freshly chopped dill weed)
Optional: garnish with fresh chopped parsley

Steps:

  • Gather the ingredients.
  • Sprinkle the chicken breasts with seasoned salt. If the chicken breasts are quite large, slice each one in half horizontally to make two cutlets. For faster and more uniform cooking, put each chicken breast or cutlet between two sheets of plastic wrap and gently pound with the smooth side of a meat tenderizer.
  • In a large skillet over medium-high heat, melt the butter and olive oil.
  • When the butter and oil are hot and sizzling, add the chicken breast halves or cutlets to the skillet. Cook for about 3 to 5 minutes on each side or until chicken is browned. Reduce the heat to low.
  • Add the chicken broth to the skillet; cover and simmer 10 to 12 minutes or until chicken is cooked through.
  • Remove the chicken breasts from skillet to a hot platter; tent them with foil to keep them warm.
  • In a small bowl, combine cream or half-and-half, flour, and dill; whisk or blend with a fork until smooth.
  • Add the flour mixture to the skillet; cook and stir until the mixture has thickened.
  • Serve the creamy dill sauce over chicken breasts with rice, noodles, or potatoes and your favorite side vegetables.

SHEET-PAN CHICKEN WITH POTATOES, ARUGULA AND GARLIC YOGURT



Sheet-Pan Chicken With Potatoes, Arugula and Garlic Yogurt image

Your typical sheet-pan chicken recipe roasts everything together on a pan at once. This version pairs potatoes with the poultry, and tops everything off with fresh herbs and arugula, making it a true one-pan meal, salad included. A savory yogurt sauce adds a creamy touch, but it's optional if you're not a yogurt sauce fan. Feel free to double the recipe if you're feeding a crowd, though make sure to use two sheet pans so that everything is spread out in one layer, which is critical for browning.

Time 1h

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 14

1 1/2 pounds chicken thighs and drumsticks
1 1/4 pounds small Yukon Gold potatoes, halved and cut into 1/2-inch slices
2 1/2 teaspoons kosher salt, more as needed
1/2 teaspoon black pepper, more as needed
2 tablespoons harissa (or use another thick hot sauce, such as sriracha)
1/2 teaspoon ground cumin
4 1/2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil, more as needed
2 leeks, white and light green parts only, halved lengthwise and thinly sliced
1/2 teaspoon lemon zest (from 1/2 lemon)
1/3 cup plain yogurt (do not use Greek yogurt)
1 small garlic clove
2 ounces baby arugula
Chopped fresh dill, as needed
Lemon juice, as needed

Steps:

  • Combine chicken and potatoes in a large bowl. Season with salt and pepper. In a small bowl, whisk together harissa, cumin and 3 tablespoons oil. Pour over chicken and potatoes and toss to combine. Let stand at room temperature for 30 minutes, or up to 8 hours in the refrigerator.
  • Meanwhile, in a medium bowl, combine leeks, lemon zest, a pinch of salt and the remaining 1 1/2 tablespoons oil.

GARLIC DILL CHICKEN



Garlic Dill Chicken image

This is a recipe that I clipped from the Toronto Star many years ago. It is very easy to make and very tasty!

Provided by Irmgard

Categories     Chicken

Time 2h30m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 11

4 cloves garlic, finely chopped
4 large shallots, finely chopped
4 tablespoons chopped fresh dill or 1 tablespoon dried dill
1 tablespoon chopped fresh basil or 1 teaspoon dried basil
1 tablespoon paprika
2 tablespoons olive oil
2 tablespoons vegetable oil
2 tablespoons lemon juice
2 lbs chicken thighs
3 tablespoons whole wheat flour
1 cup chicken stock

Steps:

  • Combine garlic, shallots, dill, basil, paprika, oils and lemon juice in a shallow baking pan that is large enough to hold the chicken pieces in a single layer.
  • Add chicken and turn to coat the pieces.
  • Cover and marinate at room temperature for at least 1 hour, turning occasionally.
  • Place the pan containing the marinade and chicken in a preheated 350 degree F oven and bake 1 hour or until the chicken is tender.
  • Baste with the liquid in the pan every 20 minutes.
  • Remove chicken to a platter.
  • Keep warm until the sauce is ready.
  • Sprinkle the surface of the liquid in the baking pan with flour and stir with a wire whisk to combine.
  • Heat the stock.
  • Pour the liquid from the baking pan into a medium saucepan.
  • Whisk the hot stock into the saucepan.
  • Cook over medium heat, stirring constantly, until it comes to a boil and thickens to a medium gravy.
  • If the sauce is too thick, thin with a little more stock.
  • Serve over chicken.

Tips:

  • Choose the right chicken pieces: Boneless, skinless chicken breasts or thighs work best for this recipe. If you're using chicken breasts, pound them thin to ensure even cooking.
  • Marinate the chicken: Marinating the chicken in a mixture of garlic, dill, olive oil, and seasonings helps to infuse it with flavor. You can marinate the chicken for at least 30 minutes or up to overnight.
  • Cook the chicken over medium heat: Cooking the chicken over medium heat helps to prevent it from drying out. Be sure to cook the chicken until it is cooked through, but not overcooked.
  • Don't overcrowd the pan: If you're cooking the chicken in a skillet, don't overcrowd the pan. This will prevent the chicken from cooking evenly.
  • Use fresh herbs: Fresh herbs, such as dill and parsley, add a burst of flavor to this dish. If you don't have fresh herbs on hand, you can use dried herbs, but be sure to use less, as they are more concentrated.

Conclusion:

Garlic dill chicken is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for a weeknight meal. The combination of garlic, dill, and lemon creates a flavorful and aromatic dish that is sure to please everyone at the table. Serve it with your favorite sides, such as roasted vegetables, mashed potatoes, or rice.
