Chicken Breast Ala Escarole Recipes

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F. Heat the olive oil in a large ovenproof skillet over medium-high heat. Season the chicken with salt and pepper and add skin-side down to the skillet. Cook until the skin browns, about 10 minutes. Flip the chicken, transfer the skillet to the oven and roast until cooked through, 10 to 12 minutes.
• Meanwhile, trim the escarole, tear into pieces and rinse well. Thinly slice the garlic.
• Remove the chicken to a plate. Discard all but 3 tablespoons fat from the skillet; return the skillet to medium-high heat. Add the garlic and cook until golden, about 1 minute. Add half of the escarole and cook, tossing, until wilted, about 1 minute. Add the remaining escarole and cook, tossing, until wilted, 1 minute; season with salt and pepper. Add the thyme and chicken broth and bring to a simmer. Cook until reduced by half, about 3 minutes. Add the capers, butter and lemon juice. Cook, swirling the pan, until the butter is melted. Discard the thyme sprigs.
• Divide the chicken thighs and escarole mixture among plates. Sprinkle with parsley.

Steps:

• Heat 1 tablespoon oil in a medium skillet over medium heat. Season chicken with salt and pepper and cook, skin side down, until golden brown, 10-12 minutes. Turn and cook until cooked through, 5-8 minutes longer. Transfer to a plate; reserve skillet.
• Wipe out skillet and heat remaining 3 tablespoons oil over medium heat. Add garlic, coriander, cumin, and paprika. Cook, stirring occasionally, until garlic is softened and spices are fragrant, about 2 minutes. Remove from heat, add shallot, and toss to coat; season with salt and pepper.
• Combine cilantro, lemon juice, and 2 tablespoons garlic-shallot mixture in a large bowl; season chermoula with salt and pepper. Add escarole and toss to coat. Slice chicken and arrange on top. Spoon remaining garlic-shallot mixture over and drizzle with more lemon juice, if desired.

Steps:

• Mix together crumbs, garlic and Parmesan cheese and set aside.
• Pound chicken breast lightly to even out thickness (not too thin).
• Dip chicken in egg, then in flour.
• Saute in 2 T oil in large skillet over medium heat for 3 minutes on each side until lightly browned.
• Add half of escarole to skillet, sprinkle with half of bread crumb mixture.
• Add remaining escarole and bread crumbs.
• Pour in broth, then drizzle with remaining olive oil.
• Simmer, covered on low about 15 minutes, until escarole is wilted and chicken is done.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 200 degrees F. Line a baking sheet with paper towels.
• In a shallow dish, beat the eggs. Spread the flour and panko in 2 separate shallow dishes. Season the chicken cutlets with salt and pepper. Dredge each cutlet in the flour, then dip in the egg, letting the excess drip back into the bowl. Dredge in the panko, pressing lightly to help it adhere; transfer to a plate.
• In a large skillet, heat ¼ inch of canola oil until shimmering. In batches if necessary, fry the cutlets in a single layer over medium-high heat, flipping once, until golden and cooked through, about 6 minutes total. Transfer to the prepared baking sheet to drain, then transfer to the oven to keep warm.
• In another large skillet, melt the butter in the olive oil. Add the apple and onion and season with salt and pepper. Cook over medium-high heat, stirring occasionally, until lightly browned and the apple is almost tender, about 3 minutes. Add the escarole and cook, stirring, until just starting to wilt, 2 to 3 minutes. Remove from the heat and stir in the vinegar. Season with salt and pepper. Serve with the cutlets.

Steps:

• In a skillet, brown chicken breasts in 1 tablespoon oil over medium heat. Cook till juices run clear.
• Add orange juice to the pan. When juice just begins to bubble around the edges of the pan, add corn starch dissolved in hot water. Mix ginger and honey together in a cup, and add to orange juice. Cook until sauce is thick and slightly browned. Serve.

Steps:

• Heat 1 Tbsp. oil in a medium skillet over medium heat. Season chicken with salt and pepper and cook, skin side down, until golden brown, 10-12 minutes. Turn and cook until cooked through, 5-8 minutes longer. Transfer to a plate; reserve skillet. Wipe out skillet and heat remaining 3 Tbsp. oil over medium heat. Add garlic, coriander, cumin, and paprika. Cook, stirring occasionally, until garlic is softened and spices are fragrant, about 2 minutes. Remove from heat, add shallot, and toss to coat; season with salt and pepper. Combine cilantro, lemon juice, and 2 Tbsp. garlic-shallot mixture in a large bowl; season chermoula with salt and pepper. Add escarole and toss to coat. Slice chicken and arrange on top. Spoon remaining garlic-shallot mixture over and drizzle with more lemon juice, if desired.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 450°F.
• Place two cast-iron or heavy-bottomed ovenproof skillets over high heat; cast iron will yield a crispier skin. Season the chickens generously with salt and pepper; you should see the seasoning on the meat. Coat each pan with 2 tablespoons of canola oil. Once the oil is shimmering, lay the chicken halves in the pans, skin side down. It's super important to make sure the chicken lies flat and all of the skin is in contact with the pan. Cook until the skin starts to brown, 3 to 5 minutes. Do not move the chicken or the skin will tear. Transfer the pans to the oven and roast until the juices run clear when the meat is pierced with a knife, about 20 minutes.
• Meanwhile, cut the escarole lengthwise through the core and then crosswise into 1/2-inch-wide strips. Put the escarole in a large bowl of water. Swish the water around; sand will fall to the bottom of the bowl. Lift the escarole out with your hands and put it on a kitchen towel to dry; you should have about 5 quarts of escarole. It might seem like a lot, but trust me, it cooks down dramatically.
• Put a large pot or skillet over medium heat and coat with the olive oil. When the oil is shimmering, add the garlic and cook, stirring, until golden, about 30 seconds. Raise the heat to high and add several handfuls of the escarole, stirring to coat with the oil. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the escarole starts to wilt. When there is more room in the pan, add the rest of the escarole. Cook until most of the liquid is evaporated, about 5 minutes. Season with salt and pepper.
• Transfer the chicken to a warm platter, skin side up. To make a quick pan sauce, pour out the excess fat from the pan drippings. Place the pans over two burners set on medium-high heat. Add 2 tablespoons wine to each pan. Using a wooden spoon, scrape up the brown bits stuck to the bottom of the pan. Add 1 tablespoon butter to each, stirring to melt, and sprinkle with parsley.
• To serve, divide the escarole among 4 plates and lay half a roasted chicken on top, skin side up. Drizzle the pan sauce on top.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 450°F, with a rack in upper third. Place potatoes in a pot; cover with 2 inches generously salted water. Bring to a boil and cook until almost tender, 3 to 5 minutes; drain. Remove zest from lemon in long strips with a peeler, then use a sharp knife to slice strips into a fine julienne. Squeeze 3 tablespoons lemon juice into a bowl, whisk in oil and capers, and season with salt and pepper.
• Season both sides of chicken with salt and pepper; arrange in an even layer on a rimmed baking sheet with onion and potatoes. Pour caper mixture over everything; toss to coat. Roast until chicken is golden brown and cooked through, 45 to 50 minutes; transfer to a plate.
• Switch oven to broil and cook vegetables, stirring once, until juices have reduced slightly and vegetables are charred in places, about 5 minutes. Stir in julienned lemon zest and escarole; broil another 30 seconds. Serve with chicken and mustard.

Steps:

• Bring a large pot of water to boil. Add the pasta and cook until just al dente, about 10 minutes. Add the escarole and cook, stirring occasionally, until tender, about 2 more minutes.
• Meanwhile, toast the pine nuts in a large skillet over medium-high heat, about 1 minute. Add 1 T EVOO, the breadcrumbs, and salt and pepper to taste; cook until golden, about 2 minutes. Transfer the mixture to a plate. Wipe out the skillet, add the pancetta and cook until crisp, about 5 minutes. Transfer to paper towels and blot dry.
• Add the remaining 1 T EVOO to the skillet, then add the garlic and jalapeno and cook until fragrant, about 1 minute. Drain the pasta and escarole, reserving 1 cup cooking water, and add to the skillet. Add half of the pancetta and toss, drizzling in enough pasta water to moisten. Season with salt and pepper.
• Divide the pasta among bowls, top with the breadcrumb mixture, remaining pancetta and the parmesan. Drizzle with olive oil.

Steps:

• Whisk together oregano, vinegar, and 1 tablespoon oil. Brush marinade onto both sides of chicken. Transfer chicken to a nonreactive dish; cover, and refrigerate at least 2 hours or overnight.
• Put remaining 2 tablespoons oil and the garlic into a large skillet. Cook over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until garlic has softened, about 2 minutes. Add beans and reserved liquid, and rosemary. Cook, mashing beans with the back of a wooden spoon, 5 minutes. Add 1/4 teaspoon salt; season with pepper. Transfer to a small bowl. Cover, and set aside
• Heat a large grill pan over medium-high heat. Coat with cooking spray. Add chicken. Grill, turning once, until cooked through, 3 to 4 minutes per side. Season with remaining 1/2 teaspoon salt. Transfer to a plate; let cool slightly. Cut chicken into 1/4-inch-thick slices; set aside.
• Toast bread. Spread each slice with white-bean spread, dividing evenly. Top 4 slices with the chicken, radishes, and escarole, and then the remaining bread.
