• Add the chicken to the sauce; increase the heat to medium and simmer until just cooked through, about 3 minutes. Add the gruyere and parmesan and continue simmering, stirring occasionally, until the cheese melts and the sauce thickens, about 2 minutes (do not boil). Add the parsley; season with salt and pepper.

CRISPY CHICKEN WITH ROSEMARY-LEMON SALT

Steps:

• For the salt: Heat 1/4-inch oil in a large, high-sided skillet over medium-high heat (the oil is hot enough when a pinch of cornmeal sizzles when added to the pan). Add the rosemary sprig and fry for 30 seconds until crisp. Using tongs, remove the rosemary sprig and drain on paper towels. Remove the leaves and finely chop to yield 1 tablespoon. Place the rosemary, salt, and lemon zest in a small bowl. Mix with a fork until combined. Set aside.
• For the chicken: In a medium bowl, mix together the chicken, garlic, rosemary, lemon zest, salt, and pepper. Add the cornmeal and toss until the chicken is coated. Add 1/2 the chicken to the same skillet used to cook the rosemary and fry until golden and crispy, 2 to 3 minutes on each side. Drain on paper towels. Repeat with the remaining chicken. Sprinkle with the rosemary-lemon salt and serve.

CHICKEN WITH ROSEMARY, GARLIC, AND TOMATO SAUCE

Steps:

• Lightly season the chicken with salt and pepper. Place the chicken and rosemary in a sealed container or resealable bag. Refrigerate for at least 6 hours, or up to overnight.
• Thirty minutes before cooking, remove the chicken from the refrigerator. Reserve the rosemary.
• Place a large, deep cast-iron skillet that has a lid, or a Dutch oven, over medium-high heat. Add 1/4 cup of the olive oil and heat until hot. Working in 2 batches, sear the chicken for 4 to 5 minutes per side, or until golden brown. Transfer to a plate. If necessary, add up to another 1/4 cup olive oil between batches.
• Add the onion and garlic to the pan. Saute for 3 minutes, stirring occasionally and pressing down on the garlic cloves. Pour in the tomato sauce and stir constantly for 2 minutes.
• Add the wine, scraping the carmelized bits from the bottom of the pan with a wooden spatula or spoon. Reduce the heat to low and return the chicken to the pan. Partially cover the skillet with the lid and braise the chicken for 40 minutes, stirring occasionally. If the pan looks dry at any time, reduce the heat slightly and add some chicken stock or water.
• Add the rosemary and cook for an additional 20 minutes, or until the chicken is fork-tender. Transfer the chicken and sauce to a platter and serve.
