Pan Seared Chicken Breast With Herb Jus And Potato Vegetable Hash Recipe 455

Steps:

• Heat a large sauté pan over high heat and add the oil. Season both sides of chicken breast with salt and pepper, to taste. Sear the chicken, skin side down, 4 to 5 minutes. Reduce the heat to medium, flip the chicken, cover the pan and cook on second side for 7 to 8 minutes. After second side has been cooked, add the wine, garlic, and herbs and continue to cook until the liquid is reduced by half. Transfer the chicken to a serving platter and allow it to rest. Remove the pan from the heat and whisk in the butter, scraping up the bits from the bottom of the pan. Serve the chicken with Potato-Vegetable Hash and the pan sauce. Garnish with chives. Using a box grater, shred the potato, zucchini and squash, and add them to a large bowl. Stir in the onion, egg, flour, garlic, herbs, and Cajun spice. Blend well. Add more flour if mixture is too wet. The mixture should hold its shape when squeezed. Heat a large sauté pan over medium heat. Add 2 tablespoons grapeseed oil. Portion the hash into 2 cakes, then gently put them in the pan. Cook until golden brown, about 2 to 3 minutes, then flip and cook until the other side is browned. Remove them from the pan to a paper towel and season with salt, to taste. Serve warm.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400 degrees F.
• Heat a skillet over medium high heat. Drizzle the chicken breast with 1/2 of the oil, and then season the breast with a good crust of salt and pepper. Put chicken in the pan skin side down, then add the herbs, and garlic. When the skin has a nice golden color turn it over, and put in a preheated oven for 8 minutes or until juice runs clear.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F. Heat 2 tablespoons vegetable oil in a large ovenproof skillet over medium-high heat. Season the chicken with 1 teaspoon salt and a few grinds of pepper. Add to the skillet skin-side down and cook until golden, about 5 minutes. Pour off most of the fat from the skillet; transfer the skillet to the oven (do not flip the chicken). Roast 5 minutes, then flip the chicken and roast until cooked through, about 15 more minutes.
• Meanwhile, cook the bacon in the remaining 1 tablespoon oil in a large pot over medium-high heat until crisp, about 5 minutes. Remove with a slotted spoon and drain on paper towels, reserving the drippings in the pot.
• Add the mushrooms, carrots, parsnips, turnips, red onion, 2 tablespoons water, 1/2 teaspoon salt and a few grinds of pepper to the pot. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the vegetables are tender, about 12 minutes. Return the bacon to the pot along with the parsley and thyme. Serve the chicken with the vegetables.
