Chicken And Spring Green Gratin Recipes

Steps:

• Heat oven to 400°F. Spray 11x7-inch baking dish or 2-quart casserole with cooking spray.
• Spread broccoli in baking dish. Stir Potatoes, Sauce Mix, Cheese Sauce, boiling water and margarine in medium bowl. Stir in milk. Spread over broccoli. Place chicken breast halves on potato mixture.
• Bake uncovered 30 minutes. Place cheese slices on chicken. Sprinkle with Topping. Bake 3 to 5 minutes longer or until cheese is melted and juice of chicken is no longer pink when centers of thickest pieces are cut. Let stand 5 minutes or until sauce is as thick as desired.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350°F. Melt butter in an ovenproof 10" skillet (such as cast iron) over medium-low heat. Add leeks and ramp bulbs and cook, stirring often, until leeks are softened, about 10 minutes. (Try to keep the leeks from browning.)
• Add ramp greens, arugula, and spinach in big handfuls, cooking and wilting one batch before adding the next. (At first it will look like all those greens will never fit in the skillet, but keep at it-you'll see!) When all greens are wilted (this may take 15-20 minutes), add coriander, salt, and cayenne. Cook, stirring, until spices are incorporated, about 1 minute. Add lemon zest, cream, and 1/2 cup Parmesan. Continue to cook, stirring, until cream has slightly reduced, about 2 minutes longer. Remove from heat.
• Toss bread with oil in a large bowl to coat. Arrange bread on top of vegetables, taking care not to cover the greens completely (you want them to peek through here and there). Sprinkle remaining 2 Tbsp. Parmesan over.
• Transfer to oven and bake gratin until bread is golden brown and crisp, cheese is melted, and cream is bubbling, 35-45 minutes. Let cool slightly before serving.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F.
• For the chicken and spring vegetables: Whisk the olive oil, lemon juice, dill, parsley and garlic together in a large bowl. Set aside 2 tablespoons of the marinade. Add the chicken to the bowl with the remaining marinade and toss to coat. Let sit at room temperature for 20 minutes.
• Toss the carrots and 1 tablespoon of the reserved marinade in a medium bowl. Sprinkle with salt and pepper.
• Remove the chicken from the marinade and put on a sheet pan, skin-side up. Sprinkle generously with salt and pepper. Scatter the carrots around the chicken in a single layer; reserve the bowl. Roast the chicken and vegetables until the chicken turns opaque on the outside, about 15 minutes.
• Toss the potatoes and scallions with the remaining 1 tablespoon marinade in the reserved bowl used for the carrots. Sprinkle with salt and pepper.
• Remove the sheet pan from the oven and scatter the potatoes and scallions in a single layer around the chicken. Continue to roast until the vegetables are tender and an instant-read thermometer inserted into the chicken (avoiding the bone) registers 165 degrees F, about 30 minutes more.
• For the Dijon herb sauce: Meanwhile, whisk together the Dijon and olive oil in a small bowl. Add the dill, parsley and 3 tablespoons cold water and whisk until combined. Season with salt and pepper.
• To serve, divide the chicken and vegetables among 4 plates and drizzle each with some of the sauce.

Steps:

• Set oven to 450 degrees.
• Set oven rack to center position.
• Butter a baking dish (large enough to hold casserole).
• For the cheese sauce, melt butter over low heat in a heavy-bottomed saucepan.
• Gently cook shallots and garlic for a few minutes, or less, be careful not to brown.
• Gradually whisk in cream, and then the chicken broth, whisk and cook until smooth (about 5 minutes).
• Blend in grated cheese and green onions, stir until blended.
• Set sauce aside.
• In a baking dish, place the diced chicken, and cover with about 1 cup cheese sauce.
• Top with carrots and green beans.
• Cover with half of potato slices.
• Then pour half of the remaining cheese sauce over the carrots and beans.
• Cover with remainig potato slices, then finish with the remainder of sauce on top of potatoes.
• Sprinkle top with grated cheddar cheese.
• Bake in the center of oven for 40-45 mins.

Steps:

• Cook greens in large pot of boiling salted water until tender, 5 to 10 minutes. Drain; rinse under cold water. Squeeze dry; chop greens finely. DO AHEAD: Greens can be made 1 day ahead. Cover and chill.
• Sprinkle chicken with salt and pepper. Melt 1 tablespoon butter in heavy medium skillet over high heat. Add chicken; sauté until golden brown, 2 to 3 minutes, then transfer to bowl.
• Add remaining 1 tablespoon butter to same skillet and melt over low heat. Add flour and whisk 1 minute (do not brown). Pour in cream. Increase heat and bring to boil, whisking until sauce is thick and smooth, about 2 minutes. Whisk in broth, then stir in greens and nutmeg. Season with salt and pepper.
• Preheat oven to 400°F. Butter 9-inch-diameter glass pie dish. Add eggs to mixture with greens. Stir gently, partially breaking yolks and whites. Spread mixture in prepared dish. Push chicken pieces down into mixture. Sprinkle breadcrumbs over. Drizzle with olive oil.
• Bake gratin until top is golden brown and eggs are cooked, about 18 minutes.
