CHICKEN WITH CREAMY MUSHROOM SAUCE

Steps:

• Split breast: Cut each breast in half horizontally to form 4 thin steaks in total.
• Dust with flour: Sprinkle each side with salt and pepper, then sprinkle with flour and use your fingers to spread it all over the surface.
• Cook chicken: Melt 15g butter in a large non-stick frying pan over medium high heat. Add chicken and cook each side for 2 1/2 minutes until golden brown and just cooked through. Remove from pan, cover and keep warm.
• Cook mushrooms: In the same frying pan, add remaining butter and increase heat to high. Add mushrooms and cook for 4 minutes, until starting to turn golden brown on the edges.
• Add garlic later: Then add garlic and a pinch of salt and pepper, and continue cooking for another minute until both garlic and mushrooms are golden.
• Deglaze skillet: Add white wine - it will bubble and be steamy! Cook for 30 seconds, scraping the bottom of the pan, until wine is mostly evaporated and the alcohol smell is gone.
• Make creamy sauce: Add chicken stock, cook vigorously for 1 minute so it mostly evaporates. Then add cream, lower heat to medium and simmer for 2 minutes until it reduces and thickens slightly.
• Add parmesan: Stir in parmesan, taste and add more salt and pepper if needed.
• Finish chicken in sauce: Return chicken to sauce for 30 seconds (to warm through slightly.) Garnish with chives and serve as-is in the pan, for people to help themselves (or transfer to serving platter, if you prefer). Alternatively, serve a portion of chicken onto each plate, spoon sauce over and garnish with more chives.
• Sides: Ideal served with mashed potato or rice - something to soak in that amazing sauce! See Note 5 for suggestions.

GARLIC CREAM SAUCE OVER CHICKEN BREASTS

Steps:

• Preheat an outdoor grill for medium-high heat and lightly oil the grate.
• Season chicken breasts with oregano, basil, salt, and black pepper.
• Cook the chicken breasts on preheated grill until no longer pink in the center and the juices run clear, 5 to 6 minutes per side. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 165 degrees F (74 degrees C).
• Melt butter with vegetable oil in a saucepan over medium heat. Cook and stir garlic in the butter mixture until fragrant, about 2 minutes. Stir flour through the butter mixture; cook and stir until flour is incorporated, about 1 minute more. Pour heavy cream and chicken broth into the saucepan; stir. Continue cooking until the mixture thickens, 3 to 5 minutes. Add Parmesan cheese and cream cheese to the saucepan; cook, stirring occasionally, until the cheese is melted into the sauce, about 5 minutes.
• Plate the chicken breasts. Spoon sauce over the chicken. Serve extra sauce on the side.

• Heat oil in a medium skillet over medium heat. Add the chicken and cook, turning once or twice and adjusting the heat to prevent burning, until brown and an instant-read thermometer inserted into the thickest part registers 165°F, 12 to 16 minutes. Transfer to a plate and tent with foil to keep warm.
• Add shallot to the pan and cook, stirring, until fragrant, about 30 seconds. (I like to let them carmelize.) Add mushrooms; cook, stirring occasionally, until tender, about 2 minutes. Pour in vermouth (or wine); simmer until almost evaporated, scraping up any browned bits, about 1 minute. Pour in broth and cook until reduced by half, 1 to 2 minutes. Stir in cream and chives (or scallions); return to a simmer. Return the chicken to the pan, turn to coat with sauce and cook until heated through, about 1 minute.

Steps:

• Make sure you read the cooking notes before you start.
• Step 1 - 2 hours prior to cooking, rinse the chicken breasts under cold water and pat-dry thoroughly with paper towel. Sprinkle with lemon juice and rub it in. Season with salt and pepper on both sides. Set aside, at room temperature. Meanwhile, you can prepare the onion (peel, dice) and the mushrooms (wash, slice).
• Step 2 - Heat up a large frying pan (or skillet) over medium-high heat with the butter. When the butter is sizzling, add the onion (or shallots) and cook for 2-3 minutes, stirring occasionally until fragrant. Add the mushrooms, and cook for 4-5 minutes until the mushrooms are softened, but not browned yet.
• Step 3 - Nestle the chicken breasts between the mushrooms. Cook for 7-8 minutes, without touching. Flip the chicken and cook for 7-8 more minutes. Transfer the chicken to a plate and cover with foil.
• Step 4 - Add the chicken stock to the mushrooms and stir. When the stock is hot, add the crème fraiche and stir. Bring the sauce to a low boil and let simmer for 1-2 minutes until the sauce thickens slightly. Taste and adjust seasoning if needed (salt, pepper). Stir in 1 tablespoon of parsley. Nestle the chicken breasts back into the pan and drape with sauce. Remove from heat and set aside for 5 minutes. Garnish with the remaining 1 tablespoon of parsley.
