Nigella Lawson Chicken Teriyaki Recipes

Steps:

• Heat the garlic oil in a frying pan or Dutch oven that has a lid and in which the chicken breasts will fit pretty snugly. Add the scallions, stir, then sprinkle in the freeze-dried tarragon, stir again and cook them in the garlic oil for a minute, stirring some more as they cook.
• Put the chicken fillets into the pan, curved side down, and cook for 5 minutes, watching the scallions don't burn. If they look like they're beginning to, scrape them from the pan and let them sit on the chicken pieces.
• Turn over the breasts, and add the vermouth (or white wine). Let the vermouth bubble up, then add the salt. Put the lid on, turn the heat down low and leave it to simmer gently for 10 minutes. Check the chicken is cooked through by making a small cut into the thickest part and ensuring the juices run clear - if not, simmer for a few minutes longer and check again.
• Remove the chicken breasts to warmed plates. Bring the remaining liquid to a boil, add the cream and stir well, then sprinkle in the fresh tarragon, stir again and give a good grind of white pepper.
• Pour the sauce over the chicken breasts, and give a final scattering of tarragon to serve.

Steps:

• In a non-reactive dish, stir together sake, mirin, soy sauce, brown sugar, ginger and sesame oil. Add chicken pieces, toss, cover with plastic, and refrigerate for 30 minutes.
• Add noodles to salted boiling water and cook until done (they should be fully soft, not al dente like Italian pasta).
• While noodles cook, heat peanut oil in wok or large skillet over medium flame. Remove chicken from marinade and stir-fry for 3-4 minutes. Add marinade, cover and simmer 10 minutes.
• Add sugar snap peas to noodles.
• Transfer chicken pieces to a large piece of foil and fold to seal inches Turn up flame under sauce until it thickens to a glaze. Add chicken back to pan (with any accumulated juices) and toss to coat.
• Drain noodles and peas, and transfer to a serving dish. Pour chicken over the top.

Steps:

• Combine the sake, mirin, soy sauce, sugar, ginger and sesame oil in a dish that you can steep the chicken in, (I use a 23cm square dish, but anything of similar dimensions would do).
• Add the prepared chicken pieces and leave for 15 minutes.
• Heat the peanut oil in a large shallow frying pan or casserole (that has a lid) over medium heat.
• Using a slotted spoon, transfer the chicken pieces from the marinade to the pan.
• Saute them until they look cooked on the outside.
• Add the marinade to the chicken pieces and bring to a bubble, then turn down the heat to a gentle simmer, put the lid on and cook for about 5 minutes.
• Cut into a piece of chicken to make sure it's cooked through.
• Remove the cooked pieces with a slotted spoon (you could keep them in a bowl covered in aluminum foil to keep them warm) and turn the heat up under the pan to let the liquid boil down to a thick dark syrup.
• Return the chicken pieces back to the pan, stir well so that all the chicken pieces are coated in the syrup.
• Serve with a pile of sushi rice and perhaps some steamed baby bok choy or other veggies of your choice.
