Number Of Ingredients 10

1 tablespoon olive oil
1 cup loosely packed flat-leaf parsley leaves, coarsely chopped
2 whole boneless chicken breasts, skin on, split
Salt and freshly ground black pepper
1 small onion, chopped fine
10 white mushrooms, trimmed and cut into 3/4-inch pieces
1 cup dry white wine
2 tablespoons balsamic vinegar
1 tablespoon butter
4 handfuls fresh baby or flat-leaf spinach, (8 to 10 ounces), stems cut

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Press a scant tablespoon parsley onto skin side of each breast. Season both sides with salt and pepper. Place breasts, skin side down, in skillet; cook until golden, about 8 minutes per side.
  • Remove chicken from skillet, and transfer to a roasting pan. Place roasting pan in oven. Roast until chicken cooks through, 15 to 20 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, return skillet to stove. Add onion; cook, stirring, until just golden, about 2 minutes. Add mushrooms; cook until soft, about 5 minutes. Add wine; scrape skillet's bottom to release cooked-on juices. Cook until wine is almost evaporated, about 5 minutes. Add vinegar; cook 1 minute more. Stir in remaining parsley; season with salt and pepper. Remove from heat; stir in butter.
  • Remove chicken from oven. Place spinach on plates. Slice each breast into sixths; arrange over spinach. Spoon mushroom mixture over chicken, drizzling juices over spinach, and serve.

WARM CHOPPED CHICKEN PICCATA SPINACH SALAD



Warm Chopped Chicken Piccata Spinach Salad image

Categories     Salad     Chicken     Side     Spinach

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 12

6 chicken breast cutlets
Salt and black pepper
3 tablespoons EVOO (extra-virgin olive oil)
4 chewy, crusty rolls
1 tablespoon unsalted butter
2 shallots, chopped
3 garlic cloves, chopped
3 tablespoons capers, chopped
1/2 cup dry white wine
Juice of 1 lemon
2 pounds triple-washed spinach, tough stems removed, coarsely chopped
Parmigiano-Reggiano cheese, for garnish

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 250°F.
  • Season the chicken with salt and pepper on both sides. Heat your largest nonstick skillet with 2 tablespoons of the EVOO, twice around the pan, over medium-high heat. When the oil ripples, add the chicken and cook for 3 minutes on each side. Remove the chicken to a plate and let it rest and cool.
  • Wrap the rolls in foil and place in the oven to warm.
  • To the same skillet, add the remaining tablespoon of EVOO, once around the pan, and the butter. Melt the butter into the EVOO and add the shallots, garlic, and capers. Sauté for 5 minutes, then add the white wine and reduce for 30 seconds. Next, add the lemon juice and immediately add the spinach-mound it up in the pan. You will not be able to fit it all in there at first; just keep turning the spinach and wilting it down until you get it all in, then turn the heat off. Keep some leaves a bit crisp to vary the textures in your salad. Season the spinach with salt and pepper. Chop the chicken into little bits, then add to the warm salad and toss to distribute. Divide the salad among the plates and garnish it with shaved Parmigiano-Reggiano. Serve with a warm roll for mopping.
