PAN-ROASTED CHICKEN IN CREAM SAUCE



Pan-Roasted Chicken in Cream Sauce image

This recipe is an adaptation of a dish the chef Angie Mar serves at the Beatrice Inn in Manhattan, the chicken crisped in a pan, then napped in a Madeira-laced cream sauce dotted with morels. Which sounds fancy and hard to make but isn't, really. Brown the chicken, and set it aside to rest. Cook the morels in the remaining fat - you could swap them out for another wild mushroom or even button mushrooms in a pinch - and then flash them with Cognac, which you'll find will come in handy again and again once you start cooking with it. (Try it on steak au poivre!) Then build up a sauce with cream and a little butter and crème fraîche for gloss, get the chicken into it and add some fresh savory and tarragon at the end - or just one of those, or neither. Make the dish as you prefer or as you can. It's luxurious, every time.

Time 1h

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 13

1 chicken, 4 to 4 1/2 pounds, cut into pieces, or some combination of chicken parts on or off the bone, approximately 3 pounds
Kosher salt to taste
2 tablespoons olive oil
12 to 15 morels or other wild mushrooms, approximately 3 1/2 ounces
1/4 cup Cognac
1 1/2 cups chicken stock, homemade or low-sodium
2/3 cup heavy cream
1/2 cup Madeira wine
1 tablespoon unsalted butter
1 tablespoon crème fraîche or Greek-style yogurt
2 teaspoons finely chopped savory
1 tablespoon finely chopped tarragon
1/2 tablespoon finely chopped parsley, to finish

Steps:

  • Season the chicken parts aggressively with salt. Set a Dutch oven or large, high-sided sauté pan over high heat, and swirl the olive oil into it. When it is shimmering and about to smoke, turn the heat to medium high, and working in batches, add the chicken to the pan, skin-side down, setting the pieces aside to rest when they are golden and crisp on one side and just kissed by the heat on the other, approximately 30 minutes for all the meat.
  • Discard all but 2 tablespoons of fat in the pan, then return it to medium-high heat and add the mushrooms, tossing to coat them with fat. Cook, stirring often, until the mushrooms just begin to soften, approximately 3-4 minutes, then remove the pan from the heat. Add the Cognac, and carefully ignite it with a match, or simply cook it on very low heat until the alcohol has evaporated and the mushrooms are glossy.
  • Scrape the mushrooms to the sides of the pan, then add to it the chicken pieces, arranged in a single layer if possible. Pour 1 to 1 1/2 cups of chicken stock around the chicken. It should rise about halfway up each piece. Lower heat to medium, allow the mixture to come to a low simmer, then put a lid on the pan and allow the mixture to cook slowly until the meat has cooked through, approximately 15 minutes.
  • Remove the lid from the pan, and transfer the chicken pieces to a platter to rest. Turn the heat to medium high, and allow the chicken stock to reduce by 1/3, then add the heavy cream, and stir to incorporate. Let this mixture simmer for a minute or 2 until it starts to thicken, then add the Madeira, and swirl again to combine.
  • Continue cooking the sauce until it can enrobe the back of a spoon, approximately 2-3 minutes more, then stir in the butter, crème fraîche and chopped savory and stir to combine. Turn the heat off, add the tarragon, stir one more time and then return the chicken pieces to the pan. Spoon some sauce over the chicken, sprinkle with the parsley and serve.

PAN-ROASTED CHICKEN WITH CREAMY MUSTARD SAUCE



Pan-Roasted Chicken with Creamy Mustard Sauce image

Provided by Daphne Brogdon

Categories     main-dish

Time 1h45m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 15

1 cup beef broth
1/2 cup white wine
2 1/2 tablespoons dry mustard powder
2 tablespoons Worcestershire sauce
2 cloves garlic, chopped, plus 2 cloves, smashed
1/2 medium onion, chopped
Salt and fresh ground pepper
4 chicken quarters (thigh and drumstick attached)
3 tablespoons canola or vegetable oil
4 tablespoons butter
1 cup half-and-half
1 sprig rosemary
2 teaspoons cornstarch
1 tablespoon whole-grain mustard
Juice of 1/2 lemon

Steps:

  • In a large resealable bag, combine the beef broth, white wine, 1 tablespoon of the mustard powder, Worcestershire sauce, chopped garlic, onions and some salt and pepper. Add the chicken quarters to the bag, seal well, and shake a bit to coat the chicken in the marinade. Marinate in the refrigerator for at least 1 hour, or up to overnight.
  • Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F
  • Heat the oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Remove the chicken from the marinade and pat dry with paper towels; reserve the marinade. Add the chicken, skin side down, to the skillet and cook until nicely brown, 5 minutes. Flip, and brown on the reverse side, another 4 minutes. Lower the heat to medium-low and add the butter and the smashed garlic to the pan. Cook for 1 minute, basting the chicken with the melted butter.
  • Transfer the skillet to the oven and roast until the chicken reaches an internal temperature of 170 degrees F, measured at the thickest part of the thigh, 10 to 12 minutes. Remove the chicken to a plate and let rest, loosely cover, for 5 minutes.
  • Heat the half-and-half and rosemary in a small saucepan over low heat. Pour off all but about 2 tablespoons of the oil from the skillet the chicken was cooked in. Place the skillet over medium heat and deglaze the pan with half of the reserved marinade, scraping up any browned bit from the bottom of the pan with a wooden spoon. Cook for 2 minutes, to reduce. Strain into the heated half-and-half and remove the rosemary sprig. In a small bowl, mix together the cornstarch and 2 tablespoons cold water. Whisk the cornstarch slurry into the half-and-half, then whisk in the remaining 1 1/2 tablespoons mustard powder, the whole-grain mustard and the lemon juice. Season the sauce with a salt and pepper to taste. Bring to a simmer and cook, stirring occasionally, until the sauce coats the back of a spoon. Pour some of the sauce over the chicken and serve the rest on the side.

CREAMY CHICKEN CHEDDAR CHEESE SAUCE



Creamy Chicken Cheddar Cheese Sauce image

Creamy Chicken Cheddar Cheese Sauce - Chicken smothered in a rich and creamy cheddar sauce with parsley is a truly heartwarming, so cozy, and one perfect dinner meal. Very quick and easy dinner recipe idea to make from scratch which only takes you 30 minutes to make.

Provided by Julia | The Yummy Bowl

Categories     Main Course

Time 30m

Number Of Ingredients 11

1 lb chicken breasts (boneless skinless)
2 tbsp olive oil
1 tbsp butter
Pinch of salt
For the sauce:
6-7 mushrooms ((or more if you love mushrooms))
1 tbsp butter
1 cup heavy cream
1 ½ cup cheddar (grated)
½ tsp chili flakes
1/2 cup fresh parsley leaves (chopped)

Steps:

  • Wash chicken breasts, pat dry with a tissue.
  • Cut each chicken breast in half, and then each piece into 3. Which will make a total of 12 chicken pieces. (If you want, you can also cut the chicken breast into long strips. The chicken will cook even faster this way)
  • Heat 1 tablespoon butter in a large skillet over high heat.
  • Season the chicken with salt and transfer to the skillet. Cook for 4 minutes on each side until golden brown. Leave it aside. (Cook on high heat, don't reduce the heat. Cooking this way will result in more tender chicken from the inside and slightly crispy from the outside.)
  • Add 1 tablespoon butter to the same skillet, add sliced mushrooms and cook for 2 minutes.
  • Add cream, take it to a boil, and reduce heat. Don't boil! Cook for 2-3 minutes.
  • Top with grated cheddar cheese and chopped parsley leaves, stirring and mixing everything well until cheese is melted.
  • Return chicken to the skillet, add chili flakes and cook on low heat for 5 minutes.
  • Taste if you need more salt. The cheddar is quite salty itself, so you may want to leave it as it is.
  • Garnish with parsley and you are ready to serve your delicious dinner!

You could hear the lunch bell ring from all the way over at the barn. Dong! Dong! Dong! "It's time for lunch!" Jerry shouted. He jumped down off the tractor and headed for the old pickup truck. "Whata we having?" yelled Bubba. Dennis smiled, "We having that lip smacking good chicken with that sauce!" Everyone piled into the back of the truck and made their way to the table, it was piled high with tasty chicken, sauce in a gravy ladle and some nice red tomatoes. Hurry up and pass that down here...Granddad boldly nodded. Feel free to add the sauce to potatoes or vegetables as suggested by Jen T who must be a genius! Thanks, Jen! But most of all *enjoy* and gather around the table and rest a spell.
