CHICKEN SUPREME WITH TRUFFLE AND SAGE

Steps:

• For the chicken: Loosen the skin from the breast and wing by inserting fingers, gently pushing between the skin and meat. Insert the truffle slices under the loosened skin over the breast and wing. Cover with sage leaves and put the skin back. Season the chicken with salt and pepper.
• Preheat the oven at 350 degrees F.
• In a large skillet, on high heat, sear the chicken pieces skin-side down and finish cooking in the oven for 15 minutes.
• For the sauce: Reduce the chicken stock by 1/2 for 30 minutes. Add the Dijon mustard and lemon juice. Slowly add the butter, whisking constantly until emulsified. Season the sauce with salt and pepper, to taste.
• Serve the chicken with oven-roasted Jerusalem artichokes, recipe follows.
• Preheat the oven at 350 degrees F.
• Cut the artichokes in half.
• In a bowl, mix everything together. Put on a baking tray, flesh-side down and bake in the oven for 45 minutes or until caramelized and tender.

CRISPY BAKED CHICKEN SUPREME

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
• Grease a 9x13 baking dish.
• If the chicken breasts are super thick, I slice them in half, horizontally, to get breasts with a more even thickness, otherwise you can just pound them slightly to flatten out the thick end. Evening out the thickness of the meat means it will cook more evenly.
• Place the chicken breasts into the prepared pan.
• Stir together the sour cream and soup. Spread the sauce in an even layer over the top of the chicken breasts.
• Pour the contents of the stuffing box into a gallon-sized zip-top bag. Use a rolling pin to crush the stuffing mix into fine crumbs.
• Once the stuffing is crushed, add the Parmesan cheese to the bag. Shake the bag so all the crumbs and herbs form the stuffing are combined with the Parmesan.
• Sprinkle the Parmesan/stuffing mixture over the sauce on your chicken. Use it all. It will seem like a thick layer, but trust me, it's perfect!
• Distribute the butter slices over the top of the crumbs.
• Bake in a 350 degree oven for 45 minutes to an hour, depending on the thickness of your chicken breasts. Internal temperature of the chicken should be 165 degrees.

BUTTER-ROASTED SUPREME OF CHICKEN WITH WILD MUSHROOM & POTATO GRATIN

Steps:

• To make the gratin, peel and slice the potatoes no thicker than a 50p piece using a mandolin, if you have one. Bring the milk, cream, garlic, herbs and some seasoning to the boil in a large saucepan, then turn down the heat and simmer for a few mins.
• Slip the potatoes into the hot milk mixture and simmer for 10 mins until just cooked. Drain the potatoes in a colander over a bowl to catch the liquid - reserve the milk. While the potatoes are simmering, heat half the butter in a frying pan until foaming. Fry the mushrooms for 2 mins until just wilted, season with salt and pepper and set aside.
• Rub 2 small gratin dishes (or 1 medium) with the remaining butter, sprinkle over the thyme leaves and grate over some of the cheese. Fill the dishes halfway with potato slices, moisten with a little milk and grate over more cheese. Fill up the dishes with potato slices, add enough milk to cover, then top with the mushrooms and the rest of the cheese.
• For the chicken, mix about two-thirds of the butter with the lemon zest and half the juice, the parsley, paprika and some salt and pepper. Lift the skin slightly away from each breast, spread or pipe the flavoured butter under the skin, then stretch the skin back over. Chill up to a day in advance, if you like.
• Heat oven to 220C/200C fan/gas 7. Heat the remaining butter in an ovenproof frying pan until foaming. Pan-fry the chicken, basting constantly with the butter until starting to brown. Add the shallot, garlic, thyme and stock. Place the chicken, skin-side up in its pan, on the higher shelf of the oven, and the gratins on the lower shelf. Roast both for 25-30 mins, then remove the chicken and rest for 15 mins, while the gratins continue to cook.
• To finish, remove the chicken from the pan. Place the pan back on the heat, squeeze over the remaining lemon juice and bring everything to a hard boil. Pass the sauce through a sieve, pressing down firmly on all the soft shallot and garlic. Heat a drizzle of olive oil in another frying pan and reheat the leeks until they start to colour. With the gratins cooked, you are now ready to plate up.
• Line six leeks up in a row in the middle of each plate. Carve the chicken on a slant into five thick slices. Neatly fan out each chicken breast over the leeks. Spoon the sauce over the chicken and around the leeks, and serve with the potato gratin.
