Seared Chicken Breasts With Herbed Shallot Sauce Recipes

Steps:

• Melt 1 tablespoon butter and heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Season chicken with salt and pepper, and brown on both sides in the skillet. Cover, and continue cooking 10 minutes, or until chicken juices run clear. Set aside, and keep warm.
• Mix shallots and garlic into skillet over medium heat, and cook until tender. Stir in wine, and cook until heated through. Stir in broth, and continue cooking 5 minutes, or until reduced and slightly thickened. Mix in the remaining butter until melted. Serve the sauce over the chicken.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F.
• Heat 2 tablespoons oil in a large oven-safe skillet over medium-high heat. Pat the chicken dry and season both sides with salt and pepper. Lay the breasts smooth-side down in the skillet and cook, turning once, until golden on both sides, about 8 minutes total. Transfer the skillet to the oven and bake until just cooked through, 10 to 12 minutes more.
• Heat the remaining 1 tablespoon oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the green beans and cook about 2 minutes. Season with salt and pepper, add 1/4 cup water then cover and cook until the beans are tender, about 3 more minutes.
• Meanwhile, mix the butter, tarragon, lemon juice and shallot in a small bowl until well combined; season with salt and pepper.
• Top each chicken breast with a dollop of the butter mixture and serve with the green beans and lemon wedges.

Steps:

• Heat a large saute pan over high heat and add the oil. Season both sides of chicken breast with salt and pepper, to taste. Sear the chicken, skin side down, 4 to 5 minutes. Reduce the heat to medium, flip the chicken, cover the pan and cook on second side for 7 to 8 minutes.
• After second side has been cooked, add the wine, garlic, and herbs and continue to cook until the liquid is reduced by half.
• Transfer the chicken to a serving platter and allow it to rest.
• Remove the pan from the heat and whisk in the butter, scraping up the bits from the bottom of the pan.
• Serve the chicken with Potato-Vegetable Hash and the pan sauce. Garnish with chives.
• Using a box grater, shred the potato, zucchini and squash, and add them to a large bowl.
• Stir in the onion, egg, flour, garlic, herbs, and Cajun spice. Blend well. Add more flour if mixture is too wet. The mixture should hold its shape when squeezed.
• Heat a large saute pan over medium heat. Add 2 tablespoons grapeseed oil. Portion the hash into 2 cakes, then gently put them in the pan. Cook until golden brown, about 2 to 3 minutes, then flip and cook until the other side is browned. Remove them from the pan to a paper towel and season with salt, to taste. Serve warm.

Steps:

• Heat oven to 400°F. Line cookie sheet with sides with foil.
• In 12-inch skillet, melt butter over medium-high heat. Rub seasoned salt under skin into chicken being careful not to remove skin completely. Cook in butter, skin side down, 3 to 4 minutes without moving, until chicken releases easily from pan. Turn chicken; reduce heat to medium, and cook 3 to 4 minutes longer or until chicken easily releases from pan. Turn off heat, and reserve pan with juices. Transfer chicken to cookie sheet. Bake 30 to 34 minutes or until juice of chicken is clear when thickest part is cut to the bone (at least 165°F).
• Meanwhile, melt remaining 2 tablespoons butter in skillet, then add onion. Cook 5 to 6 minutes or until onion is translucent and begins to brown. Add apple; cook 1 to 2 minutes. Add mustard and broth; cook 6 to 8 minutes, stirring occasionally, until thickened. Add spinach, and stir until wilted.
• Place a chicken breast on each of 4 plates. Divide sauce among plates.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 425 degrees F (220 degrees C).
• In a bowl, prepare the basting sauce by combining olive oil, onion, garlic, thyme, rosemary, sage, marjoram, salt, pepper, and hot pepper sauce.
• Turn chicken breasts in sauce to coat thoroughly. Place skin side up in a shallow baking dish. Cover.
• Roast at 425 degrees F (220 degrees C), basting occasionally with pan drippings, for about 35 to 45 minutes. Remove to warm platter, spoon pan juices over, and sprinkle with fresh parsley.
