Mary Berry Chicken Supreme Recipes

CHICKEN SUPREME

Steps:

• Melt the butter with the oil in a large, lidded frying pan over a medium heat. Season the chicken all over and brown on both sides. Remove it from the pan and set aside.
• Add the bacon and onions to the pan and cook gently for 10 minutes until soft, stirring occasionally. Stir in the garlic and cook for another 5 minutes.
• Pour in the wine and let it bubble for a minute or so, then stir in the cream. Return the chicken to the pan, skin-side down, cover and cook for 10 minutes.
• Turn the chicken over, half-cover the pan and cook for 5-10 minutes more, or until the breasts are cooked through and the sauce has reduced to the consistency of thick cream. Season and serve.

MARY BERRY'S RATHER SPECIAL CHICKEN AND HERB CASSEROLE

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 160°C/140°C fan/Gas 3. Place the bacon in a large non-stick ovenproof frying pan or flameproof casserole and fry over a medium heat for a few minutes to render out the fat. Add the onions and continue to fry until the bacon is brown at the edges. Transfer the bacon and onions to a plate using a slotted spoon and set aside. Lightly season the chicken. Place the oil in the unwashed dish, add the chicken and brown over a high heat, turning once. Transfer to the plate with the bacon and onions. Scatter the flour into the dish (adding a little more oil, if needed) and stir to combine. Gradually incorporate the hot stock, whisking, and allow to thicken. Pour in the wine and return the bacon, onions and chicken to the pan. Stir well, add the thyme sprigs, sage sprigs and bay leaves. The sauce will be quite thick at this stage. Bring to the boil, season well with salt and black pepper and cover. Transfer to the oven for 30 minutes. Remove the dish from the oven and add the mushrooms and crème fraîche. Stir well and return to the oven for a further 15-20 minutes, until the chicken is tender. Meanwhile, heat the butter in a small pan over a medium heat. Add the whole sage leaves and fry until crisp. Remove the bay leaves, thyme and sage sprigs from the casserole and discard (some leaves will have fallen off to flavour the casserole). Stir in the parsley and serve with the crisp sage leaves on top. Mary's Tips: Can be made up to a day ahead. Add the crème fraîche and mushrooms when reheating. Freezes well.

Steps:

• Heat half the oil and butter in a large non-stick frying pan. Add the onion and a pinch of salt and fry for 10-15 mins or until golden brown and caramelised. Add the bacon, turn up the heat and cook for 5 mins or until golden brown. Add the garlic and cook for 1 min more. Scrape the mixture into a bowl and set aside.
• Heat the remaining oil and butter in the same pan over a medium-high heat. Season the chicken skin and fry, skin-side down, for 8-10 mins or until deep golden brown and crisp. Flip over and fry for 5 mins on the other side.
• Add the onion and bacon mixture back to the pan. Stir through the flour and cook for 2 mins. Pour in the wine, bring to the boil and simmer for a few minutes.
• Stir through the cream and mustard and simmer over a low heat, uncovered, for 5 mins with the chicken skin-side up. Season to taste. Scatter with parsley, if you like, and serve with mashed potatoes and greens.

CRISPY BAKED CHICKEN SUPREME

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
• Grease a 9x13 baking dish.
• If the chicken breasts are super thick, I slice them in half, horizontally, to get breasts with a more even thickness, otherwise you can just pound them slightly to flatten out the thick end. Evening out the thickness of the meat means it will cook more evenly.
• Place the chicken breasts into the prepared pan.
• Stir together the sour cream and soup. Spread the sauce in an even layer over the top of the chicken breasts.
• Pour the contents of the stuffing box into a gallon-sized zip-top bag. Use a rolling pin to crush the stuffing mix into fine crumbs.
• Once the stuffing is crushed, add the Parmesan cheese to the bag. Shake the bag so all the crumbs and herbs form the stuffing are combined with the Parmesan.
• Sprinkle the Parmesan/stuffing mixture over the sauce on your chicken. Use it all. It will seem like a thick layer, but trust me, it's perfect!
• Distribute the butter slices over the top of the crumbs.
• Bake in a 350 degree oven for 45 minutes to an hour, depending on the thickness of your chicken breasts. Internal temperature of the chicken should be 165 degrees.
