Grilled Chicken Breasts With Sauteed Shiitake Mushrooms Recipes

Steps:

• Sprinkle the chicken breasts with salt and pepper.
• Heat the oil in a heavy skillet and add the chicken breasts, the mushrooms and the onions. Cook about 5 minutes over medium heat or until lightly browned. Turn the pieces and cook 5 minutes more, shaking the pan and turning the mushrooms and onions so they brown evenly. Remove chicken breasts, and keep them warm. Pour off fat from the pan.
• Add the rosemary and shallots and cook briefly, until wilted. Add the wine and cook, stirring and scraping to dissolve the brown particles that cling to the skillet.
• When the wine is almost reduced by half, blend in the chicken broth. Continue cooking and when the sauce is reduced by half, stir in the butter. Remove pan from stove immediately. Pour sauce over chicken, sprinkle with the parsley and serve.

Steps:

• Melt the butter in a nonstick skillet over medium-high heat.
• Add the shallots and saute, stirring occasionally, for 2 to 3 minutes, or until they start to soften.
• Add the mushrooms, 1/4 teaspoon of the salt and 1/8 teaspoon of the pepper, and saute for 5 to 6 minutes until the mushrooms soften.
• Add the sherry and cook 1 to 2 minutes, or until most of the liquid has evaporated.
• Remove from the heat and keep warm.
• Sprinkle the remaining 1/4 teaspoon of salt, 1/8 teaspoon of pepper and the rosemary over the chicken.
• Coat a ridged grill pan or cast-iron skillet with the olive oil and heat over medium high.
• Add the chicken and cook 5 to 6 minutes on each side, or until the chicken is cooked through.
• (A thermometer, inserted horizontally into the center of the breast, should register 160 degrees).
• Place a chicken breast on each plate and serve topped with the sauteed mushrooms.

Steps:

• Heat the grill to high.
• Brush both sides of the mushroom caps with 4 tablespoons of the canola oil and season with salt and pepper. Place on the grill, cap side down and grill until golden brown and slightly charred, 4 to 5 minutes. Turn the mushrooms over and continue cooking until just cooked through, 3 to 4 minutes longer. Remove from the grill and coarsely chop.
• Whisk together the shallots, vinegar, extra virgin olive oil and parsley in a medium bowl until combined and season with salt and pepper. Add the mushrooms and stir to coat. Let sit at room temperature for at least 15 minutes before serving.
• Brush both sides of the chicken with the remaining canola oil and season with salt and pepper. Place on the grill, skin side down and grill until golden brown, 4 to 5 minutes. Flip over, reduce the heat of the grill to medium, close the cover and continue grilling until just cooked through, about 7 minutes longer. Remove chicken from the grill and let rest 5 minutes before serving. Serve 1 breast per person topped with some of the shiitake vinaigrette. Garnish with parsley leaves.

Steps:

• Heat oil in a deep sided heavy skillet or saute pan with a lid, preferably with a non-stick coating, over medium heat. Add the chicken smooth side down. Saute, turning each piece with tongs or a plastic spatula until lightly browned, about 5 minutes per side. Half way through cooking add the shiitakes; lightly brown on both sides. Sprinkle with salt and pepper; remove chicken and shiitakes to a side dish.
• Add the wine to the hot skillet and boil over high heat until reduced by half, about 3 minutes. Add the tomatoes, parsley, garlic and orange zest. Heat to boiling; stirring to combine ingredients. Return the chicken, shiitake and any juices on plate to the skillet. Cover and cook, over medium heat, 10 minutes or until the chicken is cooked through. Transfer the chicken to a heated platter; cover with foil. Turn the heat to high and boil the tomato mixture until slightly reduced and thickened, about 5 minutes. Add basil, if using. Season sauce to taste with salt and pepper. Garnish with basil and serve with Parmesan Orzo (recipe to follow).
• Cook orzo in boiling, salted water, partially covered, stirring frequently to prevent sticking. When the water returns to a boil, uncover and boil until tender, about 15 minutes. Toss with the cheese and parsley.
