Time 35m

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 17

1 teaspoon garlic powder
1 teaspoon onion powder
¼ teaspoon paprika
salt and ground black pepper to taste
1 pound chicken tenders
2 tablespoons olive oil
1 tablespoon butter
1 cup sliced mushrooms
¼ cup finely chopped onion
1 ½ teaspoons minced garlic
⅔ cup fat free half-and-half
½ cup low-sodium chicken broth
3 tablespoons freshly squeezed lemon juice
3 tablespoons chopped fresh dill, divided
1 tablespoon cornstarch
salt and ground black pepper to taste
1 lemon, cut into wedges

Steps:

  • Mix together garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, salt, and pepper in a bowl. Sprinkle on both sides of chicken tenders.
  • Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add chicken tenders and sear until browned, about 3 minutes per side. Remove to a plate and loosely tent with foil.
  • Reduce heat to medium and melt butter in the skillet. Add mushrooms and onion and cook until mushrooms start to brown, about 4 minutes. Stir in garlic and cook until fragrant, about 30 seconds.
  • Whisk together half-and-half, chicken broth, lemon juice, 2 tablespoons dill, and cornstarch in a medium bowl; add to the skillet. Stir until sauce is slightly thickened, about 3 minutes, and season with salt and pepper.
  • Reduce heat to low, add chicken and any accumulated juices to the pan. Simmer until chicken is no longer pink in the center and the juices run clear, 4 to 5 minutes. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 165 degrees F (74 degrees C). Sprinkle the remaining 1 tablespoon dill on top of the chicken, and serve with lemon wedges.

VELVET CHICKEN BREAST WITH MUSTARD SAUCE



Velvet Chicken Breast With Mustard Sauce image

Cooking chicken breasts can be tricky, especially the "skinless-boneless" kind. No matter if they are pan-fried or grilled, they are apt to be dry if left to cook even a minute too long. This recipe borrows a Chinese technique called velveting that guarantees a moist chicken breast. A simple marinade made with egg white and cornstarch is the solution. Usually the chicken is cut into strips or cubes, but small chicken breasts or cutlets can be prepared the same way for Western-style dishes. Here, an assertive mustard sauce pairs nicely with the tender meat. Serve with boiled potatoes and crisp watercress, or stir-fried spinach.

Categories     dinner, lunch, main course

Time 1h

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 13

4 small skinless-boneless chicken breasts, about 6 ounces each
Salt and pepper
2 egg whites (about 4 tablespoons)
4 tablespoons cornstarch
2 tablespoons Dijon mustard
2 tablespoons whole-grain Dijon mustard
1 teaspoon dried mustard
1 tablespoon grated horseradish
1/2 cup crème fraîche
1 cup chicken broth
3 tablespoons melted butter or vegetable oil
1 teaspoon roughly chopped thyme leaves
2 tablespoons snipped chives

Steps:

  • Trim chicken breasts to a uniform size, shape and thickness; they should be about 1/2 inch thick. (If using larger breasts, slice them into 1/2-inch-thick cutlets.) Season generously on both sides with salt and pepper.
  • Velvet the chicken: In a medium-size mixing bowl, whisk egg whites until frothy, then whisk in cornstarch until lump-free. Add chicken breasts and coat well with cornstarch mixture, then cover and marinate for 30 minutes. (Chicken may also be marinated several hours ahead and refrigerated.)
  • Meanwhile in a small mixing bowl, stir together Dijon mustard, whole-grain mustard, dried mustard, horseradish and crème fraîche. Set aside.
  • Put butter or oil in a skillet over medium heat. Lay chicken breasts in the pan and sauté very lightly for 30 seconds a side without browning. Remove breasts and blot on paper towels. Discard remaining oil and wipe pan.
  • Return skillet to stove and add mustard and crème fraîche mixture and chicken broth. Whisk together to make a thin sauce and bring to a gentle simmer. Add breasts and simmer for 1 minute, then turn breasts over, cover pan and simmer for 2 minutes. Turn off heat and leave covered for 1 or 2 minutes more, until meat is firm to the touch.
  • Transfer breasts to a warm platter. Bring sauce to a boil, add chopped thyme and reduce until slightly thickened. Spoon sauce over breasts, sprinkle with chives and serve.

Baked Lemon Chicken with Mushroom Sauce image

A great chicken recipe that I have made for years. Serve with rice and a fresh veggie. Impressive!

Provided by Anonymous

Categories     Meat and Poultry Recipes     Chicken     Chicken Breast Recipes

Time 55m

Yield 6

Number Of Ingredients 8

1 tablespoon olive oil
6 skinless, boneless chicken breast halves
1 lemon
¼ cup butter
3 cups fresh sliced mushrooms
2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
½ cup chicken broth, or more as needed
1 tablespoon chopped fresh parsley

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 400 degrees F (205 degrees C).
  • Pour olive oil in an 8x8-inch glass baking dish. Place the chicken breasts in the dish, coating each side with oil. Squeeze the juice of 1/2 lemon over each chicken breast. Slice the rest of the lemon and place a lemon slice on top of each chicken piece.
  • Bake in the preheated oven until no longer pink in the center and the juices run clear, 30 to 40 minutes. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 165 degrees F (74 degrees C).
  • Melt butter in a skillet over medium heat; add mushrooms. Cook and stir until mushrooms are brown and liquid is evaporated, about 6 minutes. Sprinkle flour over mushrooms and stir until coated. Add chicken broth, stirring to make a medium-thick sauce. Allow sauce to reduce, adjusting with a little more broth to make a creamy sauce. Add fresh parsley at the last minute. Spoon the sauce over the baked chicken breasts.

Tips:

  • To achieve the velvety texture of the sauce, it's crucial to use full-fat coconut milk. Low-fat alternatives may result in a thinner sauce.
  • When sautéing the chicken, ensure it's cooked through but not overcooked to maintain its tender texture.
  • To enhance the flavor of the mushrooms, sauté them separately from the chicken, allowing them to caramelize and develop a rich umami taste.
  • For a vibrant and flavorful sauce, use freshly squeezed lemon juice and grated ginger. Avoid bottled or pre-packaged alternatives.
  • Baby spinach cooks quickly, so add it towards the end of the cooking process to retain its鮮豔的綠色 and nutrients.
  • Serve the dish immediately, garnished with fresh herbs like cilantro or parsley, to preserve its vibrant flavors and colors.

Conclusion:

The Velvet Chicken with Mushrooms, Spinach, and Ginger-Lemon Sauce is an exquisite dish that combines tender chicken, succulent mushrooms, and vibrant spinach in a rich and creamy sauce. The harmonious blend of flavors, textures, and colors makes this dish a delightful culinary experience. Whether you're hosting a special occasion dinner or seeking a comforting and flavorful meal, this recipe promises to impress and satisfy.
