Chicken Breasts Stuffed With White Beans Recipes

Steps:

• Season the chicken all over with salt and pepper. Mix the flour with 2 teaspoons rosemary and 1 1/2 teaspoons pepper in a shallow bowl. Put the buttermilk in another shallow bowl. Spoon 2 tablespoons buttermilk into the flour mixture and stir to make clumps. Dip the cutlets one at a time in the flour, then in the buttermilk, then back in the flour again to make a shaggy coating. (You should use all of the flour mixture.) Set the chicken aside on a plate.
• Heat 2 tablespoons olive oil, the garlic and remaining 1 teaspoon rosemary in a medium saucepan over medium-high heat. Cook until the garlic is lightly toasted, about 1 minute. Stir in the cannellini beans and their liquid, 3/4 cup water and a pinch of salt. Adjust the heat to maintain a steady simmer and cook until slightly thickened, 10 to 12 minutes; add a splash of water if the mixture is too thick. Season with salt and pepper. Remove from the heat and cover to keep warm.
• Meanwhile, heat 1/4 inch olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Working in batches if necessary, add the chicken and cook until deep golden brown and crisp, about 3 minutes per side. Transfer to a rack set on a baking sheet and sprinkle lightly with salt.
• Stir the parsley into the beans and divide among plates; drizzle with the remaining 2 tablespoons olive oil. Add the chicken to the plates. Serve with lemon wedges.

Steps:

• Toss lemon slices and shallots together in a small bowl and season with salt and pepper; set aside. (This will lightly pickle the shallot and soften the lemon while you cook the chicken.)
• Season the chicken with salt and pepper. Heat oil in a large skillet over medium heat and add chicken, skin-side down. Using kitchen tongs or a spatula, press the chicken evenly into the skillet so it makes good contact with the hot surface (which will promote browning). Cook, resisting the urge to check too frequently, until the skin is deeply golden brown (think of the color of a well-baked croissant), 5 to 8 minutes, depending on the size of the chicken pieces. At this stage, most of the fat should be rendered and the skin should be crispy. Flip and continue to cook until pieces are cooked through, another 7 to 10 minutes.
• Using kitchen tongs, transfer chicken to a plate to rest, leaving all the fat behind. Add lemon and shallot to the chicken fat, standing back if you need because it will sizzle. Cook, swirling the skillet, until the lemon has started to caramelize and brown, 3 to 5 minutes. (It'll smell like a mix of lemonade and caramel.)
• Add the beans to the skillet and season with salt and pepper. Cook, tossing occasionally, until the beans have started to brown a bit and soak up all of that caramelized lemon chicken fat, 3 to 4 minutes. Working in batches, add kale and toss to wilt, seasoning with salt and pepper as you go.
• Return the chicken to the skillet, along with any juices that have collected on the plate, and cook for a minute or two, just so everything gets to know each other in there.
• Divide the chicken, beans and kale between plates, making sure to top each serving with a few lemon slices. Sprinkle with flaky salt and a final few turns of pepper, and drizzle with olive oil.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 450 degrees. Using a fork, mash beans, garlic, and olives in a medium bowl until chunky. Season with pepper, and salt if desired (taste before adding salt).
• Using a paring knife, create a pocket in the center of each chicken breast by inserting the tip into the thickest part and cutting a horizontal opening, leaving about 1 inch uncut on each end. (Be careful not to cut all the way through.) Using a spoon, stuff cup bean mixture into each pocket.
• Pour oil into a large ovenproof dish, and arrange breasts in a single layer, skin side up, turning to coat with oil. Season with salt and pepper, and roast until an instant-read thermometer inserted into the thickest part registers 160 degrees, 35 to 40 minutes. Serve immediately.

Steps:

• In a large skillet, brown chicken in oil in batches on both sides. Place the beans, carrots and celery in a 5-qt. slow cooker; top with chicken. , Combine the salad dressing, rosemary, salt and pepper; pour over chicken. Cover and cook on low for 3-4 hours or until a thermometer reads 170°.

Steps:

• Place chicken skin side down on a double thickness of heavy-duty foil lightly coated with cooking spray; sprinkle with salt and pepper. , In a skillet, saute onion and celery in butter until tender. Stir in the remaining ingredients. Spoon over chicken. Fold foil around chicken and seal tightly; place in a baking pan. Bake at 400° for 40-45 minutes. Carefully open foil. Bake 5 minutes longer or until chicken juices run clear.

Steps:

• Position rack in upper third of oven and preheat to 425°F. Toss beans and capers in a 13x9" baking dish and spread out evenly on bottom of pan. Spread 1 tsp. mustard on skin of each chicken thigh and nestle, skin side up, into beans and capers. Arrange lemon slices under and around chicken and add enough water (about 1/3 cup) to come up sides of chicken by 1/2". Drizzle chicken with oil and season whole dish with salt and pepper.
• Roast chicken, stirring and shaking dish halfway through, until skin is browned and an instant-read thermometer inserted into thickest part of chicken registers 165°F, about 35 minutes. If chicken skin starts to burn, move pan to a lower rack to finish cooking.
• Transfer chicken, beans, lemon slices, and capers to a serving platter. Spoon some of the pan sauce around chicken and sprinkle with parsley.
