CHICKEN MADEIRA

Steps:

• Place chicken tenders between 2 pieces of plastic wrap and pound with a meat tenderizer to flatten slightly.
• Mix together the flour, salt, pepper, and paprika in a shallow bowl. Coat chicken pieces in flour mixture and set aside on a sheet pan until all pieces have been coated.
• Melt 2 tablespoons butter and 2 tablespoons olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Place half of the chicken in the pan and cook until browned, about 5 minutes per side. Remove chicken to a sheet pan. Heat the remaining butter and oil in the pan, and repeat with the remaining chicken pieces. Set chicken aside.
• Combine mushrooms and shallots in the same skillet and cook until the mushrooms release their juices, about 5 minutes. Add garlic and cook for 1 more minute. Transfer mixture to a bowl and set aside.
• Bring 2 1/2 cups water to a boil in the same skillet and whisk in beef base until dissolved. Add Madeira wine, bring to a boil, and cook until mixture has reduced by about 1/3. Return mushrooms, shallots, and garlic to the skillet and let simmer.
• Mix cornstarch and cold water together in a small bowl. Add to the skillet and boil until sauce thickens slightly, at least 1 minute.

CHICKEN, MADEIRA AND MUSHROOM CASSEROLE

Steps:

• For the casserole, season the chicken pieces with salt and freshly ground black pepper, then dredge them in the flour to coat.
• Heat two-thirds of the butter in a frying pan over a medium heat. When foaming, add the chicken pieces, in batches if necessary, and fry for 2-3 minutes, or until golden-brown on each side. (Do not overcrowd the pan.) Remove the chicken pieces from the pan and transfer to a casserole or a large heavy-based saucepan.
• Place the casserole over a medium heat. Add the onion, garlic, Madeira, chicken stock, cream and thyme, stir well and bring the mixture to the boil. Reduce the heat until the mixture is simmering, then simmer for 12-15 minutes.
• Stir in the mushrooms and continue to simmer for a further 12-15 minutes, or until the chicken pieces are cooked through and the sauce has thickened slightly. (The chicken is cooked through when the juices run clear when pierced in the thickest part with a knife, and no trace of pink remains.) Season, to taste, with salt and freshly ground black pepper, then stir in the remaining butter and the parsley.
• Meanwhile, for the mash, boil the potatoes in a pan of salted water, then reduce the heat and simmer for 12-15 minutes, or until tender. Drain well and return to the pan, then place over a low heat for a couple of minutes to dry them slightly.
• Mash or rice the potatoes until smooth, then stir in the butter and cream until smooth and well combined, and season to taste.
• Serve the casserole with a spoonful of mash.
