Pan Roasted Chicken Breasts Recipes

Steps:

• Melt butter in a large skillet over medium heat. Place chicken in the melted butter, skin-side down; cook chicken skin in hot butter until beginning to brown and crisped, about 5 minutes.
• Flip chicken breasts. Arrange potatoes, carrots, and celery around the chicken.
• Chop rosemary and lemon thyme together; sprinkle over the chicken and vegetables. Season everything with paprika, garlic powder, seasoned salt, white pepper, salt and black pepper.
• Place a lid on the skillet and cook until chicken is no longer pink at the bone and the juices run clear, 45 to 50 minutes. An instant-read thermometer inserted near the bone should read 165 degrees F (74 degrees C).

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F. Sprinkle both sides of the chicken breasts with salt and pepper.
• Preheat a large skillet over medium-high heat for 2 minutes. Working quickly, melt 1 tablespoon of the butter, swirling it around the pan. Add the chicken, skin side down. Add the shallots, cut side down and not overlapping. Cook until the chicken and shallots are browned on the bottom, 2 to 3 minutes. Flip the shallots and chicken, nestle in the rosemary sprigs, then carefully pour in the chicken stock.
• Transfer the skillet to the oven and roast until the chicken is cooked through and the shallots are tender, 12 to 14 minutes, removing the smaller pieces of chicken first as they become cooked. Transfer the chicken to a serving plate.
• Check the skillet with the shallots to make sure the stock has not evaporated; if less than a few tablespoons remain, add 1/2 cup more stock or water. Reduce the pan juices over medium heat until about 1/2 cup of liquid remains, about 2 minutes. Remove the skillet from the heat and stir in the remaining 2 tablespoons of butter with a wooden spoon to thicken the pan sauce until it coats the spoon. Remove the rosemary and season the sauce with salt and pepper. Spoon some of the sauce over the chicken and scallions and the rest onto the plate.

Steps:

• Season chicken on both sides with salt and pepper.
• Heat olive oil in a heavy skillet over medium-high heat until it starts to shimmer. Place chicken breasts in skillet skin side down. Sprinkle with fresh herbs. Do not disturb the breasts until the skin side sears, 5 or 6 minutes. Turn chicken.
• Cook until internal temperature reaches 150 degrees F, about 5 minutes. Add vinegar and butter to pan with chicken. Shake pan gently until butter melts and internal temperature of chicken reaches 160 to 165 degrees F, 2 to 3 minutes more. Add a splash of chicken broth or water if sauce needs to be thinned.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 F. Heat a large ovenproof skillet over medium-high heat and add 2 tablespoons of oil. Pat the chicken dry and sprinkle with salt and pepper. Lay the breast halves, smooth-side down, in the skillet and cook, flipping once, until golden on both sides, about 4 minutes per side. Transfer the skillet to oven and bake until just cooked through, 10 to 12 minutes. Transfer the baked chicken to a cutting board to rest for 5 minutes.
• Meanwhile, whisk the remaining 1/4 cup oil, parsley, vinegar, pepper flakes, garlic, 1/2 teaspoon salt and a few grinds of pepper together in a small bowl. Slice the chicken and serve with the herb oil, roasted potatoes and a green salad if desired.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 375°F.
• Season chicken breasts on both sides with salt and pepper. Heat oil in a large oven-safe skillet over medium-high heat until almost smoking. Place chicken, skin side down, and sear until skin is well browned, 6 to 8 minutes. Turn chicken skin side up and transfer skillet to oven. Bake until the thickest part of the breast registers 160°F, about 15 minutes. Transfer chicken to large platter or individual serving platters and tent with foil.
• Place skillet over medium heat, add shallot and cook until softened, stirring frequently. Add flour and cook 1minute, stirring constantly. Add Ale and cook until reduced by half, stirring to scrape browned bits from bottom of pan.
• Stir in mustard, chicken broth, cream, thyme,1/4 teaspoon salt and 1/8 teaspoon pepper. Cook until slightly thickened.
• Remove from heat and whisk in cheese until melted and smooth. Drizzle about 3 tablespoons sauce over each breast, passing any leftover sauce along side. Serve immediately.

Steps:

• In a medium bowl, mix together the paprika, garlic powder, salt, onion powder, thyme, cayenne pepper, and ground black pepper. Set aside about 3 tablespoons of this seasoning mixture for the chicken; store the remainder in an airtight container for later use (for seasoning fish, meats, or vegetables).
• Preheat grill for medium-high heat. Rub some of the reserved 3 tablespoons of seasoning onto both sides of the chicken breasts.
• Lightly oil the grill grate. Place chicken on the grill, and cook for 6 to 8 minutes on each side, until juices run clear.

Steps:

• Prepare sauce: Heat oven to 475 degrees. Toss tomatoes, olives, capers, and 2 tablespoons oil together in a bowl.
• Sear chicken: Season both sides of chicken with salt and pepper. Heat a large ovenproof skillet over high heat until shimmering, about 1 minute. Add remaining tablespoon oil and heat until hot but not smoking. Place chicken in skillet, skin side down, and cook until deep golden brown, about 4 minutes. Use tongs to flip chicken, then add tomato mixture to skillet.
• Roast: Transfer skillet to oven and roast chicken until cooked through and tomatoes have softened, 15 to 18 minutes.
• Serve: Transfer everything to a platter, or divide chicken among plates and spoon some tomato mixture over the top.
