Categories     main-dish

Time 35m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 10

4 chicken cutlets (about 1 1/4 pounds), patted dry
Kosher salt and freshly ground pepper
2 tablespoons vegetable oil
All-purpose flour, for dredging
1 tablespoon unsalted butter
2 scallions, thinly sliced
8 ounces mushrooms (button, cremini, shiitake or a combination), quartered
1 1/4 cups low-sodium chicken broth
3/4 cup heavy cream
2 cups sugar snap peas, stemmed and halved lengthwise

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 200 degrees F. Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Season the chicken with salt and pepper. Add 1 tablespoon oil to the skillet. Dredge 2 chicken cutlets in flour, shake off any excess and place in the skillet. Cook until golden, about 1 1/2 minutes per side; transfer to a baking dish. Repeat with the remaining 1 tablespoon oil and the other 2 chicken cutlets. Cover the dish loosely with foil; place in the oven while you prepare the vegetables.
  • Add the butter to the hot skillet, then add the scallions and mushrooms; cook, stirring occasionally, until the mushrooms brown, about 4 minutes. Pour in the broth and bring to a boil, scraping up any browned bits with a wooden spoon. Cook until the liquid is reduced by half, about 3 minutes. Add the cream and boil until the sauce thickens slightly, 3 to 4 more minutes. Stir in the snap peas and heat through; season with salt and pepper. Serve the chicken topped with the creamy vegetables.

PRESSURE COOKER PORCINI RISOTTO



Pressure Cooker Porcini Risotto image

This recipe, adapted from the slow-cooking maven Lorna Sass, proves that pressure cookers shouldn't be associated with overcooked food. The rice turns out perfectly in the end, and you save a lot of time and effort. It's finished off with peas for a bit of color, and the usual cheese, salt and pepper. It's a meal that will justify buying that pressurized pot.

Time 15m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 10

1 tablespoon olive oil or butter
1/2 cup finely chopped onions
1 1/2 cups arborio rice
1/2 cup dry white wine or dry vermouth
3 to 3 1/2 cups chicken or vegetable broth
1 ounce dried porcini, broken into bits
1 cup frozen peas
1/2 cup grated Parmesan, plus more to pass at the table
Salt and freshly ground pepper to taste
2 tablespoons chopped parsley, for garnish

Steps:

  • Heat the oil over high heat in a 2 1/2-quart or larger stovetop pressure cooker, or in an electric pressure cooker using the sauté function. Add the onions, and cook for 1 minute, stirring frequently. Stir in the rice, taking care to coat it with the oil. Cook for 30 seconds, stirring constantly.
  • Stir in the wine. Cook over high heat until the rice has absorbed the wine, about 30 seconds. Stir in 3 cups of the broth and the porcini, taking care to scrape up any rice that might be sticking to the bottom of the cooker.
  • Lock the lid in place. Over high heat, bring to high pressure. Reduce the heat just enough to maintain high pressure, and cook for 4 minutes. Turn off the heat. Quick-release the pressure by setting the cooker under cold running water. Remove the lid, tilting it away from you to allow the steam to escape. If using an electric cooker, cook at high pressure for 4 minutes. Manually release the pressure.
  • Set the cooker over medium-high heat or turn on the sauté function, and stir vigorously. The risotto will look fairly soupy at this point. Boil while stirring every minute or so, until the mixture thickens and the rice is tender but still chewy, 1 to 4 minutes. Stir in the peas when the rice is almost done. (if the mixture becomes dry before the rice is done, stir in the extra 1/2 cup of broth. The finished risotto should be slightly runny; it will continue to thicken as it sits on the plate.)
  • Turn off the heat. Stir in the Parmesan, and salt and pepper to taste. Serve immediately, garnished with a little parsley. Pass extra Parmesan at the table.

  • Cook the chicken and mushrooms until they are tender. This will usually take about 10 minutes.
  • Add the peas and cook for an additional 2 minutes.
  • Serve the dish over rice or noodles.
