The Keg Blackened Chicken Recipes

Steps:

• Let the chicken come to room temperature before using.
• Cover chicken with butter until well coated.
• Heat a cast iron skillet over high heat until very hot.
• Roll each chicken breast into about 1/2 tsp. seasoning mix (I use my hands).
• Immediately place the chicken pieces skin side down in the skillet to sear.
• Pour about 1 teaspoon of the butter on top.
• Cook about 2+ minutes, until a crust forms on the underside.
• Turn and pour another 1 teaspoon of the butter on each of the chicken pieces.
• Cook until just cooked through.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 200C/400 degrees F.
• In a large bowl, mix together all the blackening spices.
• Toss the chicken in the spices, making sure that each fillet is evenly coated.
• Heat a large heavy based frying pan over high heat until very hot.
• Add the oil and fry chicken fillets on each side.
• You want the chicken to fry quite fast so that you sear and roast the spices very well.
• Don't be tempted to add too many pieces to the pan at once or you will not get the desired effect.
• When the fillet is well seared, place on a roasting tray and bake in preheated oven for 10 minutes.
• Serve the chicken on a platter garnished with a few salad leaves.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Lightly grease a baking sheet. Heat a cast iron skillet over high heat for 5 minutes until it is smoking hot.
• Mix together the paprika, salt, cayenne, cumin, thyme, white pepper, and onion powder. Oil the chicken breasts with cooking spray on both sides, then coat the chicken breasts evenly with the spice mixture.
• Place the chicken in the hot pan, and cook for 1 minute. Turn, and cook 1 minute on other side. Place the breasts on the prepared baking sheet.
• Bake in the preheated oven until no longer pink in the center and the juices run clear, about 5 minutes.

Steps:

• Place chicken between 2 pieces of wax paper on a cutting board and pound very thin.
• Combine the flour, salt and pepper in a shallow bowl.
• Heat the butter in a heavy skillet. Dip the chicken pieces lightly in the seasoned flour and shake off excess.
• When the butter stops foaming, add the chicken and cook 3 to 4 minutes per side, until golden. Remove to a heated serving platter as the remaining pieces are cooked.
• While the chicken is cooking, make the hollandaise sauce per package directions. Keep warm.
• Cover each slice of chicken with crabmeat and top with 3 asparagus spears.
• Drizzle hollandaise sauce over asparagus and serve.
