Champagne Chicken Recipe 435

Steps:

• Lightly dust chicken breasts with flour and a little salt and pepper.
• In a large skillet, lightly brown chicken breasts to a nice golden brown in olive oil. Once browned on both sides, add mushrooms and champagne. Cook over medium heat, champagne should boil a little, for approximately 1/2 hour. When chicken is tender, transfer chicken to a platter.
• Pour cream into skillet. Simmer about 5 minutes, until slightly thickened. Pour sauce over chicken breasts. Serve.

Steps:

• Heat olive oil in a heavy skillet over medium-high heat and cook onions until soft and translucent, about 5 minutes. Add chicken and carrots and cook until chicken is browned on all sides and carrots are tender, 5 to 10 minutes.
• Pour in champagne and simmer until alcohol has evaporated, 3 to 5 minutes. Add cream and chicken base and simmer until sauce has thickened, 10 to 15 minutes.

Steps:

• Melt the butter with the olive oil in a large saucepan over medium heat. Mix the flour, salt, and pepper together in a large bowl. Dredge the chicken in the flour mixture. Saute the chicken for 5 minutes. Turn over and add the champagne. Cook for another 12-15 minutes (if you're using thighs instead of breasts, they'll cook in less time...8-10 minutes). Add the cream and rosemary and gently stir the sauce to combine. Cook until the sauce is thickened (if the chicken is done before this point, remove and set on a serving platter, while the sauce finishes). Plate the chicken and spoon the sauce over the top. Serve with a hunk of bread to sop up the extra sauce and enjoy!

Steps:

• Pound chicken breasts to even thickness. Sprinkle with 1/2T lemon juice and pepper to your liking.
• Melt 2T butter and olive oil. Saute chicken. About 2 minute on each side until nicely browned. Remove from pan.
• In the same pan, melt 2T butter and saute shallots until translucent. Add garlic, scraping up brown bits from bottom of pan.
• Pur in chicken stock, champagne and remainder lemon juice. Bring to a boil and reduce to thin glaze. Add cream and boil for 6 minute until thick.
• Return chicken to pan and heat through. Sprinkle with chopped chives.
• Serve with white rice, wild rice or spinach fettecini.
