BREAST OF CHICKEN WITH ROSEMARY AND POLENTA WITH PORCINI MUSHROOMS

Steps:

• Begin by cleaning and marinating the chicken in 6 ounces of the olive oil, fresh rosemary, and a pinch of salt for approximately 4 hours.
• To prepare the polenta, bring the salted water to a boil. Once the water has boiled, sprinkle the polenta flour in the water and beat with a whisk. Lower the heat and cook for about 40 minutes until the polenta falls away from the sides of the pan. It is hard to determine the exact amount of water as it depends on the quality of the polenta flour. If it becomes hard, add hot water until the polenta softens and can be stirred.
• To cook the chicken, remove it from the marinade, dust the chicken breasts with flour, place them in a pan, add the white wine, and cook on high heat for 10 minutes, flipping on each side.
• At the same time the chicken is cooking, using another pan, heat the remaining 3 ounces of olive oil. Add the rosemary sprigs to flavor the oil. Take the rosemary out and add the porcini mushrooms and salt. Cook for 5 minutes and then add the chopped parsley.
• To serve, place the chicken on a plate and add some of the sauce from the pan. On the side place some polenta and top it with some of the porcini mushrooms. To garnish, sprinkle some parsley and add a sprig of rosemary.

BRAISED CHICKEN WITH MUSHROOMS

• Quick-cooking polenta made to package directions, or crusty-style bake-off packaged bread such as ciabatta or, fresh crusty bread - pop in freezer if storing more than one night.

• Heat a thin layer of olive oil, a couple of turns of the pan, in a large skillet with a tight-fitting lid or a Dutch oven, over medium-high heat. Pat the chicken pieces dry, and season liberally with salt and pepper. To avoid crowding the pan, brown 1/2 the chicken at a time, skin-side down, for 5 minutes, then turn the chicken and brown 3 to 4 minutes more.
• Remove the browned chicken to a plate and add to the pan the sliced fresh mushrooms, browning the mushrooms for 10 to 15 minutes. Add the onion, carrot, celery, garlic, thyme, and bay leaves, salt, and pepper and stir 10 minutes more to soften.

Pour the porcini stock over the chicken, reserving the last couple of spoonfuls, as this is where any grit may have settled.

CHICKEN BREASTS WITH MUSHROOMS

Steps:

• Slit the chicken breasts partly through the side, to create an 'envelope'. Try to slice at the thickest point and not all the way through. Spread 1 tablespoon of cream cheese inside the chicken breast and press the two sides together to reform the shape of the breast. Sprinkle with ground pepper to taste. Put to one side.
• Melt the butter in a frying pan and gently fry the onions and mushrooms until the onions are soft. Turn up the heat to a medium/high level and add the chicken. Cook on one side for about 5 minutes (depending on size) or until cooked on that side. Turn each breast over and cook for a further 5 minutes (again depending on size) or until cooked. Try not to over cook - but always ensure the chicken is completely cooked. Don't worry if the cream cheese starts to leak out of the breasts - it all adds to the flavours later.
• Turn the temperature back down a little, and add the wine (or water) to the pan (around the chicken). Followed by the mustard, thyme and stock cube. Bring to the boil. Let this gently simmer for 10 minutes. Serve with whatever is preferred - but it is good to have something to absorb the sauce. Leftovers freeze very well.
• I've usually add some garlic when cooking the onions and mushrooms, but that is just personal preference.

Once I couldn't find the dried porcini mushrooms so I bought a mix of dried mushrooms. Then I put the dried mushrooms in my spice grinder to grind. I'm sure if you didn't have a spice grinder, you could use a clean coffee grinder or food processor.
