Chicken Dijon With Green Peppercorns Recipes

Steps:

• 1. Premeasure all the ingredients listed. Set them to the side of where you will fry the chicken so they are handy.
• 2. Portion (cut) up the chicken thigh meat and coat with the beaten egg in a bowl.
• 3. Mix the flour, salt and pepper in a bowl. Dredge the egg soaked chicken pieces in the seasoned flour and place on a platter or tray.
• 4. Heat the oil in a large fry pan until quite hot but not smoking.
• 5. Fry the chicken pieces until nicely browned on both sides, turning occasionally until done. That will take about 15-18 minutes depending on how large the pieces are. Remove the cooked chicken to a serving platter.
• 6. Dump the oil from the fry pan. Be careful when doing this. Have a can ready in advance for doing this.
• 7. Return the pan to a medium hi heat. Add the butter to melt.
• 8. Saute the onion in the butter for about a minute, then add the garlic and cook for about a half a minute. Add the lemon zest, parsley, lemon juice, peppercorns, chicken stock and wine. Bring to a full boil and reduce for several minutes. Add the cream and mustard and heat through for about a minute more. Remove pan from the heat and pour over the cooked chicken and serve immediately.

Steps:

• Heat oven to 375°F. Spray 11x7-inch glass baking dish with cooking spray. Place chicken in baking dish.
• In small bowl, mix remaining ingredients except pasta and parsley. Spread mustard mixture over chicken to coat thoroughly.
• Bake uncovered 25 to 30 minutes or until juice of chicken is no longer pink when centers of thickest pieces are cut.
• Meanwhile, cook and drain pasta as directed on package. Garnish chicken with parsley. Serve with pasta.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Brush 1 tablespoon mustard all over the chicken. Sprinkle with the peppercorns, rosemary and salt to taste, patting gently so the seasonings stick. Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat; add 2 tablespoons oil. Add the chicken and cook until golden brown, about 6 minutes, turning once. Transfer to a baking dish (set aside the skillet for the sauce); bake the chicken until cooked through, about 10 minutes. Meanwhile, add the shallots to the skillet; cook over medium-high heat until just soft. Remove the pan from the heat, add the brandy, then return the pan to the heat and scrape up any browned bits. Add the broth, bring to a boil and cook until slightly thickened, about 2 minutes. Stir in the remaining 2 tablespoons mustard and the parsley. Heat the remaining 1 tablespoon oil in a deep skillet over medium-high heat. Stir in the garlic; cook about 30 seconds. Add the spinach, season with salt and cook until wilted; add the lemon zest. Slice the chicken and drizzle with the shallot sauce. Serve with the spinach. Photograph by Antonis Achilleos
