Chicken Breasts With Fennel Mustard Butter And Radicchio Recipes

Steps:

• For Fennel-mustard butter:
• Stir fennel seeds in small skillet over high heat until beginning to brown, about 1 minute. Place in spice mill and grind to coarse powder. Transfer to small bowl. Add remaining ingredients; stir to blend. Season with salt and pepper. (Can be made 2 days ahead. Cover and chill.)
• For Chicken:
• Whisk oil, lemon juice, and garlic in small bowl to blend. Place chicken in 13x9x2-inch glass baking dish. Sprinkle with salt and pepper. Pour oil mixture over. Turn to coat. Cover with plastic wrap; refrigerate at least 1 hour and up to 3 hours.
• Heat 2 heavy large skillets over medium-high heat. Add 3 chicken breasts with some of marinade to each skillet; sauté until cooked through, about 3 minutes per side. Transfer chicken to platter. Place 2 teaspoons fennel-mustard butter atop each chicken breast. Melt 1/4 cup mustard-fennel butter in 1 skillet over medium-high heat. Add anchovies; mash with fork. Stir in radicchio and capers; sauté until radicchio just begins to wilt, about 1 minute. Spoon radicchio atop chicken breasts.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 450 degrees and set the rack in the center.
• Place fennel seeds in a small frying pan and toast over medium heat until fragrant. Place seeds in a small bowl and combine with olives, juice, zest, and 1 tablespoon of the olive oil. Season with salt and freshly ground black pepper and set aside to marinate, at least 15 minutes.
• Heat a large ovenproof 12-inch frying pan over medium heat. Rub chicken with remaining 1 tablespoon of olive oil and season with salt and pepper. Add chicken to the pan, skin side down, and cook until golden brown, about 3 minutes. Flip chicken over with tongs and put it in the oven to finish cooking. (If you're not using an ovenproof frying pan, transfer the chicken to a baking dish first). Roast chicken for about 15 minutes, or until the internal temperature registers 160 to 165 degrees on a meat thermometer.
• Take the chicken out and let it rest for 5 minutes so that the juices settle. Transfer to a serving plate and top with reserved olive mixture. Serve.

Steps:

• Place flour in a shallow bowl; season with salt and pepper. Dredge chicken in flour, shaking off excess.
• In a large skillet, heat 1 tablespoon oil over medium-high. Add half the cutlets; cook until lightly browned and cooked through, 1 to 3 minutes per side (reduce heat if browning too quickly). Transfer chicken to a plate, and cover with aluminum foil to keep warm. Cook remaining cutlets, and add to plate; cover and set aside (reserve skillet).
• In a large skillet, heat 1 tablespoon oil over medium-high. Add half the cutlets; cook until lightly browned and cooked through, 1 to 3 minutes per side (reduce heat if browning too quickly). Transfer chicken to a plate, and cover with aluminum foil to keep warm. Cook remaining cutlets, and add to plate; cover and set aside (reserve skillet).
• Wipe out skillet with a paper towel. Add remaining tablespoon oil, and place over high heat. Add radicchio, cut side down, and sear, without turning, until lightly charred, 1 to 2 minutes. Turn and repeat on other side. Serve chicken and radicchio drizzled with sauce.

Steps:

• In a large nonstick frying pan, heat 2 1/2 teaspoon of the oil over moderately high heat. Add the fennel and half of the rosemary.
• Cook, stirring frequently, until the fennel is golden brown and almost done, about 10 minutes. Add broth and bring to a boil. Cover, reduce the heat and simmer until the fennel is tender, about 3 minutes. Remove the fennel and the cooking liquid from the pan.
• Heat the remaining 1 1/2 teaspoons oil over moderate heat. Pound chicken breasts so they are of an even thickness. Season the chicken with the 1/4 teaspoon salt and 1/8 teaspoon of the pepper. Add the chicken to the pan with the remaining 1 teaspoon of rosemary and cook until brown, about 4 minutes. Turn and cook until almost done, about 3 minutes longer.
• Add the garlic; cook, stirring, for 30 seconds. Add the fennel and its cooking liquid and the remaining 1/8 teaspoon pepper. Bring to a simmer. Move the fennel so that it sits on top of the chicken. Cover the pan and simmer on very low heat for 3 minutes. Stir in the parsley and serve.

Steps:

• Zest lemon and slice zest into matchstick. Juice lemon, strain and set aside.
• Lightly salt chicken breasts. Put a deep frying pan over medium high heat, pour in oil and saute chicken, about 3 minutes on each side until they are half ay done. Cooking time really depends on the thickness of the pieces you use.
• Discard oil, then add lemon zest, fennel, and wine to pan. Bring to boil over high heat and let cook until the wine reduces by about half and fennel is tender. Add broth and cinnamon, bring to boil and cook about 5 minutes to reduce the sauce a little bit.
• Add chicken and let simmer for about 2 to 3 minutes.
• In the mean time, in a small bowl, beat egg yolks with half of the lemon juice, then ladle in about 1/4 cup of the sauce and mix well. Add the mixture to pan. Cook over medium heat, stirring a little bit until sauce is creamy. Taste for seasoning, and add more lemon juice if you like.
• You can serve this dish stand alone. I served it with spagetti drizzle with a bit of olive oil.

Steps:

• Zest lemon and slice zest into matchsticks. Juice lemon, strain and reserve.
• Lightly sprinkle chicken with salt. Put deep frying pan over medium-high heat, pour in oil and gently sauté chicken breasts, about two minutes per side, until they are about half-cooked. Remove from pan.
• Pour off oil and discard, then add fennel, wine and lemon zest to pan. Bring to boil over high heat and cook until wine is reduced by about half and fennel is tender. Add broth and cinnamon, bring to boil and cook about 5 minutes to reduce sauce a bit.
• Add chicken with its juices and cook for 2 or 3 minutes.
• Meanwhile, in a small bowl, beat egg yolks with half the lemon juice (about 1 tablespoon), then ladle in about 1/4 cup of sauce. Mix well, then add to pan, mixing well. Cook over medium heat, stirring a bit, until sauce appears creamy. Taste and add more lemon juice, if you like.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).
• Place mustard in a shallow dish or bowl; place onions in a second shallow dish or bowl. Dredge chicken in mustard to coat both sides, then dredge in onions. Place coated chicken in a lightly greased 9x13 inch baking dish.
• Bake at 375 degrees F (190 degrees C) for 50 to 60 minutes or until chicken is cooked through and juices run clear.

Steps:

• If the chicken breast halves are connected, separate and trim membrane or fat. Salt and pepper.
• Trim the fennel and save 4 green leaves for chopping, leaving only the white bulb at the bottom. Cut the bulb into 1/4-inch cubes. There should be about 1 1/2 cups.
• Heat the oil in a nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Add the chicken breasts and cook until lightly browned, about 3 minutes. Add the shallots.
• Turn the chicken breasts and scatter the fennel around them. Continue cooking, shaking the skillet and redistributing the fennel, until it is cooked evenly. Cook about 3 minutes. Add the wine, broth, bay leaf, thyme and Tabasco sauce. Cover tightly and cook over medium heat for 10 minutes. Turn the pieces occasionally.
• Transfer the chicken to a warm platter, cover with foil and keep warm.
• With a slotted spoon, remove about 1/2 cup of the fennel cubes. Remove the bay leaf and thyme sprig. Pour the remaining fennel mixture into a blender or food processor. Add the butter and blend to a very fine puree. Pour the mixture into a saucepan, season with salt and pepper as needed. Add any liquid that may have accumulated around the chicken. Add the reserved fennel cubes and the chopped fennel leaves. Bring to a simmer and spoon the sauce over the chicken breasts. Serve immediately.

Steps:

• Stir together fennel seeds, 3/4 teaspoon salt, and 1/2 teaspoon pepper. Pat chicken dry, then sprinkle both sides with fennel mixture.
• Heat 2 tablespoons butter with oil in a 12-inch heavy skillet over medium heat until foam subsides, then cook 2 cutlets, turning once, until just cooked through, 4 to 5 minutes total. Transfer to a plate and cover loosely. Add remaining 2 cutlets to skillet and cook, then transfer to plate. (Butter will brown as chicken cooks.)
• Add capers and orange juice to skillet along with any meat juices from plate and bring to a boil, scraping up brown bits. Remove from heat and swirl in remaining 2 tablespoons butter. Pour over chicken.
