Pancetta Wrapped Chicken With Cabbage Recipes

PANCETTA-WRAPPED CHICKEN WITH CABBAGE

Steps:

• Mix first 4 ingredients in small bowl. Pour 5 tablespoons oil into glass baking dish. Stir in half of herbs. Add chicken. Turn to coat. Cover and chill at least 6 hours or overnight, turning occasionally.
• Sauté chopped pancetta in heavy large Dutch oven over medium heat until crisp, about 8 minutes. Add cabbage and sauté until tender, about 6 minutes. Season with salt and pepper. Set aside.
• Preheat oven to 400°F. Slightly overlap 2 slices of pancetta on work surface. Set 1 chicken breast half atop pancetta. Sprinkle chicken with salt and pepper. Top chicken with 1/4 of remaining herb mixture. Place 2 more slices pancetta atop chicken, tucking edges around chicken to enclose. Repeat with remaining pancetta, chicken and herbs.
• Heat 3 tablespoons oil in heavy large skillet over medium-high heat. Add rosemary sprigs and garlic and sauté until rosemary is fragrant and garlic begins to brown, about 5 minutes. Using slotted spoon, remove rosemary and garlic and discard. Add chicken to skillet and cook until golden brown, about 2 minutes per side. Transfer chicken to heavy baking sheet, being careful to leave pancetta wrapped around chicken. Bake chicken until cooked through, about 12 minutes.
• Meanwhile, drain drippings from skillet. Add wine to same skillet and boil until reduced to 1/4 cup, about 8 minutes. Season with salt and pepper.
• Rewarm cabbage over medium heat, stirring often. Divide cabbage among 4 plates. Top each with chicken breast. Drizzle 1 tablespoon sauce over.

CRISPY PANCETTA CHICKEN WITH SAGE

Steps:

• 1. Wash and dry the chicken. Remove the tenderloin and set aside for another use. Season both sides lightly with kosher salt and pepper. Using a fork, spread the roasted garlic, if using, all over the chicken breasts. On the top side of the breast, lay 1 slice of pancetta over the lower portion of the breast, wrapping it snugly so it adheres. Lay a sage leaf on the center of the breast, and wrap the upper portion with a second slice of pancetta. Turn the breast over and wrap a third slice of pancetta over the back of the breast. Repeat with the remaining chicken, transferring the pieces to a plate as you go. (The chicken can be made in advance up to this point. Just wrap tightly in plastic wrap & refrigerate.).
• 2. Preheat the oven to 450 degrees Fahrenheit.
• 3. Toss the potatoes, lemon, 10 sage leaves, oil, and a pinch of kosher salt and pepper in a large bowl until well coated.
• 4. Meanwhile, heat a large cast-iron skillet or grill pan over high heat until it is very hot. Drizzle the pancetta-wrapped chicken with oil and place in the pan with the sage leaf side down. Cook over high heat until the pancetta is brown, about 5 minutes. Turn the breasts over and transfer the pan to the upper rack of the oven for 15 minutes, or until cooked through.
• 5. Remove the chicken from the pan, transfer to a plate and set aside. Deglaze the pan with the wine over high heat. Reduce the wine until almost evaporated, and add the chicken stock. Continue to cook until reduced by half.
• 6. Transfer the chicken to a large platter.

PANCETTA FRIED CABBAGE

Steps:

• Cook and stir pancetta in a large skillet over medium heat until slightly browned, about 5 minutes. Add onion, garlic, salt, and black pepper; cook until onions become translucent, 5 to 10 minutes. Cook and stir cabbage with pancetta mixture until slightly softened, 5 minutes. Add soy sauce and hot pepper sauce; cook until cabbage is tender, about 10 more minutes.

PANCETTA WRAPPED STUFFED CHICKEN BREASTS

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 425 degrees F (220 degrees C). Line a baking sheet with aluminum foil or parchment paper.
• Mix goat cheese, red pepper, pecans, and garlic together in a bowl; season with salt and pepper. Lay each cutlet onto two slices of pancetta.
• Sandwich each chicken cutlet between two sheets of plastic wrap; pound chicken with a kitchen mallet to about 1/4 inch thick. Spoon goat cheese mixture onto the chicken cutlets. Roll chicken and pancetta around the goat cheese mixture and place onto prepared baking sheet with the seam side down. Season each roll with salt and pepper.
• Cook until the chicken is no longer pink in the center and the juices run clear, 20 to 25 minutes. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center of the rolls should read at least 165 degrees F (74 degrees C).

PANCETTA CHICKEN WRAPS

Steps:

• Arrange a quarter of the pancetta slices in a row on a board, overlapping them slightly along their long sides. Put a chicken breast at one end so that it lies across the slices of pancetta, top with 3 sage leaves and sprinkle with a little sea salt and freshly ground black pepper. Wrap the chicken in the pancetta so that it is completely enclosed. Repeat to make 4 parcels altogether.
• Spoon the oil into a large heavy pan (a cast-iron sauté pan is ideal, or you could use a roasting tin). Put the pan on the barbecue and heat for 1-2 mins until hot, then lay the chicken parcels in the pan and cook for 7-8 mins on each side. The pancetta will become golden and crispy.
• Remove the parcels, lay the tomatoes in the pan and shake to coat in the cooking juices, then heat through for a couple of minutes. Return the chicken to the pan, take the pan off the heat and leave the chicken to rest in it for about 10 mins, so it will cut more easily.
