BRAISED CHICKEN WITH ASPARAGUS, PEAS, AND MELTED LEEKS
Steps:
- If you see or feel dirt in the leeks, rinse well, separating layers, then pat dry; otherwise, leave rounds intact.
- Heat 2 Tbsp. oil in a large skillet over medium-high until hot but not smoking. Add leeks in a single layer; season with 1/4 tsp. salt and a pinch of pepper. Reduce heat to low and cook, turning once, until leeks are lightly golden, 16-18 minutes. Transfer leeks to a plate; reserve skillet.
- Lightly crush fennel seeds with the bottom of a heavy skillet or pot. Pat chicken thighs dry with paper towels and season with fennel, 1 1/2 tsp. salt, and 1/4 tsp. pepper. Heat remaining 2 Tbsp. oil in a 5-7-qt. Dutch oven or large wide saucepan over medium-high. Cook thighs, skin side down, until well-browned, 12-14 minutes. Transfer skin side up to a plate. Pour off and discard fat.
- Add wine to pot, bring to a simmer, and cook, scraping up bits from bottom of pot, 1 minute. Add broth and return chicken skin side up to pot. Lower heat to medium-low, cover pot, and cook until chicken is cooked through, 15-18 minutes.
- Meanwhile, combine asparagus, peas, and 2 Tbsp. water in reserved skillet, cover, and cook over medium heat until asparagus is crisp-tender, about 5 minutes. Remove from heat. Add 1/2 tsp. lemon zest, remaining 1/4 tsp. salt, and a pinch of pepper; stir gently to just combine.
- Divide chicken, asparagus mixture, and reserved leeks among large shallow bowls. Bring broth to a simmer, add lemon juice, then ladle into bowls. Top with dill and remaining 1 Tbsp. lemon zest.
BUTTER BRAISED GIANNONE CHICKEN WITH SUMMER TRUFFLES AND FOIE GRAS
Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 250 degrees F.
- Prepare chicken by cutting off the legs, neck, and wings. Remove skin from legs and de-bone both legs; reserve skin. Take the skin and roll it out until flat. Place between 2 silpat mats or greased parchment paper and bake with weighted iron until crisp and golden. Reserve both crisp skin and chicken for later. Leave oven at 250 degrees F.
- Beurre blanc: Melt 2 tablespoons butter in a medium saucepan over medium heat. Add shallots and cook until translucent and softened. Deglaze the pan with wine. Add cream and then slowly emulsify the remaining butter into the liquid until creamy and emulsified. Remove from the heat.
- Season the reserved chicken breasts with salt and pepper and then place breasts, wing side down, in a rondeau. Pour beurre blanc over the breasts and add thyme, lemon verbena, and cardamom. Make sure the chicken has enough room to "swim" in the butter and is completely covered. Cover chicken with a round cut from parchment paper. Poach in the oven at 250 degrees F until fully cooked through and tender. Make sure butter does not exceed 140 degrees F.
- Roulade: Remove any tendons and sinew from the legs and lightly flatten the leg meat. Season the legs with salt and pepper and fill with a 4-ounce piece of foie gras that has been cut into a long rectangle. Repeat this step for the other leg. Roll the leg around the foie gras and let it rest on the fold. Soak the caul fat in salted water for 30 minutes.
- Unwrap the caul fat and lay it out to dry. Cut a square out of the caul fat about the same size as the length of the roulade. Allow enough fat to cover the roulade completely. Using butchers' twine, tie up the roulade, allowing at least an inch in between each tie and making sure you do not tie the roulade too tight.
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
- Place the roulades in a large, hot, oven-safe skillet. Sear over high heat until evenly browned. Transfer skillet to the oven and roast until the internal temperature reaches 160 degrees F. Remove from the heat and let rest.
- Garnish: Blanch the leeks and asparagus in boiling, salted water. Glaze with butter, thyme, and minced shallots. Season with sea salt and pepper.
- Arrange the leeks on 1 side of the plate diagonally from a pile of the asparagus. Place a slice of the poached chicken breast on top of the asparagus. Place a slice of the chicken roulade on top of the baby leeks. Garnish the plate with summer truffle slices, and a pluche of fine herbs. Finish with Fleur de Sel and crisp chicken skin.
- Sauce: Reduce your chicken jus until it reaches the desired flavor. Adjust the flavor with 50 percent red wine reduction, percent Port wine reduction, and a little foie gras fat. Drizzle sauce over chicken and serve.
BRAISED LEEKS WITH PARMESAN
My friend Elizabeth tells me that even people who think they don't like leeks like this dish. The leeks are braised in wine and water or stock until soft and golden, then topped with Parmesan and run under a broiler, so you get a crunchy layer on top of soft cooked leeks. One of the tricks here is to discard the outer layers that become papery when you cook them, so that the whole leek will be soft and easy to cut through.

Steps:
- Cut the ends and the dark green leaves of the leeks, and cut in half lengthwise. Place in a bowl of cold water for 10 minutes, then run under the faucet to remove any sand that may be lingering in between the layers. Peel off thick outer layers and discard.
- Heat the olive oil over medium heat in a wide, heavy skillet that will accommodate all of the leeks in one layer. Place the leeks in the pan, cut side down, and cook, shaking the pan and moving them around with tongs, until they are lightly browned, 3 to 4 minutes. Using tongs, turn the leeks over and cook on the other side until they are lightly browned, 3 to 4 minutes. Season with salt and pepper. Turn the leeks back over so that the cut side is down. Peel off the outer layers if they are papery, as they will not soften when the leeks are braised. Pour in the wine and stir to deglaze the bottom of the pan, then add enough water or stock to come just to the top of the leeks. Bring to a boil, reduce the heat and simmer uncovered for 20 to 25 minutes, until the leeks are thoroughly tender when pierced with a knife. Most of the liquid should have evaporated by this time. Meanwhile, preheat the broiler.
- Transfer the leeks to an oiled ovenproof pan if your skillet cannot go under the broiler. Using tongs, turn the leeks so that the flat side is up. If there is still a lot of liquid in the pan, pour it off. Sprinkle the Parmesan over the leeks. Place under the hot broiler until the cheese has melted and is beginning to color. Remove from the heat and serve.

ONE-POT BRAISED CHARD WITH GNOCCHI, PEAS AND LEEKS
Adding a package of prepared potato gnocchi to a pot of braised greens turns a side dish into a vibrant one-pot meal fit for weeknights. The chard stems, leeks and peas are nubby and colorful next to the pillowy gnocchi, while a combination of butter and white wine makes the sauce rich and tangy. For extra creaminess, serve this with dollops of fresh ricotta stirred in at the last minute. Or skip the ricotta for a lighter meal.

Steps:
- In a 5- or 6-quart Dutch oven, melt butter over medium-high heat. Add leeks and chard stems, and cook until tender and lightly brown, 7 to 10 minutes.
- Stir in garlic, thyme and a large pinch of salt and black pepper, and sauté until fragrant, about 1 minute longer. Add wine, scraping up the brown bits at bottom of pot, and let the wine reduce by half, 2 to 4 minutes. Pour in stock and 3/4 teaspoon salt, and bring to a simmer.
- Stir in gnocchi and chard leaves. Cook, partly covered, for 15 minutes, until the chard is soft. Add peas and tarragon, and continue to cook, partly covered, until gnocchi are cooked through, another 5 to 10 minutes. Taste and add more salt, if needed.
- To serve, top with parsley, a generous shower of Parmesan and a big squeeze of lemon. If you like, you can also add a dollop of ricotta and some red-pepper flakes.
