Brusseaus Chicken With Apples And Hazelnuts Recipes

CHICKEN, APPLE, AND BRUSSELS SPROUT SHEET PAN DINNER

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F (220 degrees C).
• Toss Brussels sprouts, apple, and pancetta with 1 tablespoon olive oil and rosemary in a bowl. Spread into a single layer on a sheet pan.
• Leave space on the pan for the chicken thighs. Toss chicken with the remaining 1 tablespoon oil in the same bowl; place on the sheet pan. Sprinkle salt and pepper on top.
• Bake in the preheated oven, stirring the Brussels sprouts mixture every 15 minutes, until chicken is no longer pink in the center and the juices run clear, 40 to 45 minutes. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 165 degrees F (74 degrees C).

BRUSSEAU'S CHICKEN WITH APPLES AND HAZELNUTS

Steps:

• Cut each breast in half. Combine flour and sage and dip chicken pieces in mixture and shake off.
• Heat 3 to 4 tablespoons butter and brown chicken lightly, five to seven minutes on each side. Add 1 tablespoon brandy. Remove from heat and cool.
• Melt 4 tablespoons butter in sauté pan. Add garlic and shallots and cook over medium heat 2 to 3 minutes. Add apple, 1 tablespoon brandy and cider. Cover and steam three to five minutes, or until apples are tender but still hold their shape. Remove from heat and add hazelnuts.
• Melt remaining butter. Lay out one sheet of phyllo; brush lightly with butter and repeat, stacking one sheet upon the other and using five sheets. Cut stack in half horizontally. Repeat process one more time for two additional packages.
• Place one piece of chicken in center of one stack of phyllo. Spoon 1/4 of apple-hazelnut mixture over top of chicken. Fold long sides of phyllo over the chicken and crimp them to hold. Roll up ends; crimp and brush top with butter.
• Butter two remaining sheets of phyllo and cut lengthwise into four strips, each 3/4-inch wide. Twist each strip into a rosette and place one on top of each chicken package. Brush each rosette with butter. (There will be some left over.)
• Bake immediately or refrigerate for up to 36 hours. To bake place on ungreased baking sheet and bake at 375 degrees for 25 minutes.

ONE-PAN AUTUMN CHICKEN BREASTS WITH APPLES

Steps:

• Heat 1 tablespoon olive oil and butter in a large oven-safe skillet over medium-high heat. Season both sides of the chicken breasts with salt and pepper and add to the hot skillet, skin-side down, leaving at least 1 inch between the breasts to ensure even cooking and browning. Cook until skin is browned, about 6 minutes. Turn and cook an additional 6 minutes until browned on both sides. Transfer chicken breasts to a plate.
• Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).
• Add remaining 1 tablespoon olive oil to the skillet and stir in apples and onion. Cook, stirring occasionally, for 4 minutes. Season with sage, rosemary, thyme, salt, poultry seasoning, and pepper; stir to combine.
• While apples are cooking, whisk together chicken broth, whipping cream, honey, and mustard in a small bowl. Pour broth mixture in with the seasoned apples and onions and gently scrape browned bits from the bottom using a wooden spoon. Slide chicken breasts back into the skillet, nestling them between onions and apples.
• Transfer skillet to the preheated oven and cook until chicken is no longer pink at the bone and the juices run clear, about 30 minutes. An instant-read thermometer inserted near the bone should read 165 degrees F (74 degrees C).

EASY CHICKEN CUTLETS WITH APPLES

Steps:

• Sprinkle chicken breasts with 1/4 teaspoon salt, or as needed, on both sides. Place onto a rack, cover, and refrigerate for 30 minutes. Remove from refrigerator, and cut in half lengthwise on a slight diagonal to make 4 equal-size pieces. Place the chicken pieces between two sheets of heavy plastic (resealable freezer bags work well) on a solid, level surface. Firmly pound the chicken with the smooth side of a meat mallet to make 4 cutlets about 1/4 inch thick.
• Preheat oven to 200 degrees F (95 degrees C).
• Mix together flour, cornstarch, 1 teaspoon of salt, black pepper, and sugar in a shallow bowl. Place each cutlet into the flour mixture to coat; shake off excess flour. Melt 2 tablespoons of butter in a skillet over medium heat until foam disappears, and gently lay the coated cutlets into the butter. Cook until golden brown on both sides, about 3 minutes per side. Remove the chicken, and set aside on an oven-proof plate in the preheated oven to stay warm.
• Pour the sherry into the skillet and bring to a boil, scraping and dissolving all the brown flavor bits from the bottom of the skillet. Cook until the sherry is reduced to half its volume, about 5 minutes, and stir in the chicken broth; add the apple slices to the skillet. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the apples are soft and the sherry mixture is reduced by half. Stir in the brown sugar, 1 tablespoon of butter, and the Marsala wine until the sugar is dissolved and the sauce is thick.
• Return the chicken cutlets to the sauce, together with any juice from the plate, and turn to cover cutlets with sauce. Simmer about 2 minutes per side, and serve 2 cutlets per serving, topped with apple slices and sauce.

ROSEMARY-ROASTED CHICKEN WITH APPLES AND POTATOES

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Spray the top and bottom parts of a broiler pan with cooking spray.
• Melt butter in a skillet over medium heat and add onion slices. Sprinkle onions with 1 teaspoon salt and saute for 2 minutes. Add sugar and continue cooking until onions are translucent but not browned, 6 to 8 minutes. Remove from heat.
• Layer apples, potatoes, and sauteed onion slices in the bottom part of the broiler pan. Cover with the part top of the broiler pan.
• Drizzle olive oil over chicken thighs. Sprinkle with fresh rosemary, salt, and pepper. Rub olive oil and spices thoroughly all over each thigh and place on the top part of the broiler pan.
• Roast in the preheated oven until juices run clear and an instant-read thermometer inserted into the thickest part of the thigh, near the bone, reads 165 degrees F (74 degrees C), about 1 hour. Serve apples, potatoes, and onion alongside chicken thighs.
