Sautéed Chicken Breasts With Shiitake Mushroom Ragout Recipes

Steps:

• Place 2 Tbsp. flour in pie plate. Add chicken, 1 piece at a time; turn to evenly coat both sides of each breast with flour.
• Heat 2 Tbsp. dressing in large nonstick skillet on medium-high heat. Add chicken; turn to evenly coat both sides of breasts with dressing. Cook 3 to 4 min. on each side or until evenly browned on both sides. (Chicken will not be done.) Transfer chicken to plate; cover to keep warm.
• Add 2 Tbsp. of the remaining dressing and mushrooms to skillet; cook 8 min. or until mushrooms are golden brown, stirring occasionally and adding garlic to the skillet for the last minute. Stir in remaining flour; cook and stir 1 min. Add broth, soy sauce and remaining dressing; cook and stir 2 min. or until slightly thickened.
• Return chicken to skillet; spoon mushroom mixture over chicken. Cook 2 min. or until chicken is done.

Steps:

• For the Mushroom Ragout:
• The mushroom ragout can be made ahead and kept in the refrigerator for up to 2 days.
• Heat the oil in a skillet over medium heat.
• Add the shallots and cook until they begin to soften, about 2 minutes.
• Turn the heat to medium-high, add the mushrooms and sauté 2 minutes more.
• Add the tomatoes, tarragon, salt and pepper.
• Heat thoroughly. (If using canned tomatoes, simmer for 30 minutes to reduce the acidic taste.)
• Adjust the salt and pepper to taste.
• For the Sautéed Chicken Breasts:
• Generously season the breasts with salt and pepper.
• Heat the oil over medium-high heat in a pan large enough to accomodate all the breasts.
• Sauté the breasts for 5 to 6 minutes on each side, turning only once. (Thin breasts will take less time, thicker breasts more.)
• Serve the chicken with the mushroom ragout spooned over and around the breasts.

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:

• 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:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
• Wash chicken thoroughly and pat dry with paper towels. Place chicken quarters into a baking dish. Sprinkle with salt, white pepper, garlic, and paprika. Rub these ingredients into the chicken. Add a small amount of water to the bottom of the baking dish. Bake in the oven for 45 to 60 minutes, or until almost done. Remove from oven and add chicken stock. Add onions and mushrooms, which can be pre-sauteed, if desired. Add flour and stir to remove as many lumps as possible. Bake in oven until sauce thickens to desired preference, approximately 10 to 15 minutes. Remove chicken and check temperature which should be above 180 degrees F.

Steps:

• Wash and trim chicken breasts.
• Heat oil and butter in frying pan.
• Brown chicken on both sides.
• Remove from pan.
• Add thyme, salt, pepper and onion to pan and cook about 2 minutes.
• Add broth and mix well.
• Return chicken to pan and cook covered for 15 minutes or until done.
• Remove chicken to serving plate, keep warm.
• Add the minced garlic and reduce the sauce by one half.
• Add red pepper flakes and pour over chicken or pour into smaller dipping bowls.

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.
