Pan Fried Chicken With Mascarpone Food

CHICKEN WITH MUSTARD MASCARPONE MARSALA SAUCE

Steps:

• Sprinkle the chicken with salt and pepper. Heat the oil in a heavy large skillet over high heat. Add the chicken and cook just until brown, about 4 minutes per side. Transfer the chicken to a plate and cool slightly.
• While the chicken cools, melt 2 tablespoons of butter to the same skillet over medium-high heat, then add the onion and saute until tender, about 2 minutes. Add the mushrooms and garlic and saute until the mushrooms are tender and the juices evaporate, about 12 minutes. Add the wine and simmer until it is reduced by half, about 4 minutes. Stir in the mascarpone and mustard. Cut the chicken breasts crosswise into 1/3-inch-thick slices. Return the chicken and any accumulated juices to the skillet. Simmer, uncovered, over medium-low heat until the chicken is just cooked through and the sauce thickens slightly, about 2 minutes. Stir in the chopped parsley. Season the sauce, to taste, with salt and pepper.
• Meanwhile, bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add the fettuccine and cook until al dente, stirring occasionally, about 8 minutes. Drain. Toss the fettuccine with 3 tablespoons of butter and season, to taste, with salt and pepper. Swirl the fettuccine onto serving plates. Spoon the chicken mixture over top. Garnish with parsley sprigs and serve.

PAN-FRIED CHICKEN WITH MASCARPONE

Steps:

• Pre-heat your oven to 450f.
• Loosen the skin to make a pocket on each breast.
• Mix the fresh rosemary with the mascarpone and season with salt and a good amount of pepper (if you like it!).
• Place 1/2 of the mascarpone in each pocket of the chicken. Season each breast with salt and pepper.
• Heat the oil over hot heat, in a large oven proof frying pan. Brown the chicken quickly on both sides.
• Put the frying pan into the hot oven and roast for about 15 minutes or until cooked through. (Depends on the size of the chicken, but you should test it for doneness).
• Remove the pan from the oven and over a medium flame, add the lemon juice. It will combine with any mascarpone that leaked out, and the chicken juices.
• Turn the chicken to coat with the sauce and serve.
• I like this over wilted garlic spinach, which picks up the juices nicely!

TARRAGON CHICKEN

Steps:

• Heat the oil in a large frying pan over a medium-high heat.
• Take the chicken breasts and sprinkle the salt and pepper over both sides.
• Add the chicken breasts to the pan, and cook for about 3 minutes one side, until sealed and golden.
• Turn the chicken over and move them to one side of the pan.
• Add the onions and garlic, and cook for 3-4 minutes, stirring the onions often, until the onions are soft.
• Add in the white wine, and allow to simmer for 3-4 minutes, until the wine has nearly all evaporated.
• Add the chicken stock and dried or fresh tarragon, then pour in the cream.
• Stir together and bring to the boil.
• Simmer gently for 6-8 minutes, until the sauce has thickened, and the chicken is completely cooked through.
• Serve the chicken and sauce sprinkled with a little more fresh tarragon and black pepper.

PAN-FRIED GLAZED CHICKEN WITH BASIL - WW

• Stir in vinegar, honey, and basil; cook an additional 1 minute.

CREAMY PESTO CHICKEN WITH ROASTED TOMATOES

Steps:

• Heat oven to 200C/fan 180C/gas 6. Use a small sharp knife to make a slit along the side of each chicken breast to form a pocket. Mix together the pesto and mascarpone, then carefully spoon a quarter of the mixture into each chicken breast and smooth over the opening to seal.
• Brush a little oil, about 1 tsp, all over each chicken breast and season well. Tip the breadcrumbs onto a large plate and season. Place each breast on the plate and press all over with the breadcrumbs. Place in a lightly oiled shallow baking dish along with the tomatoes (kept together on the vine in a couple of bunches). Drizzle over the remaining oil.
• Cook in the oven for 20-25 mins until the chicken starts to turn golden and is cooked through. Scatter over the pine nuts and cook for 2 mins more. Sprinkle with basil leaves and serve with new potatoes or crusty bread.

CHICKEN STUFFED WITH HERBY MASCARPONE

Steps:

• Heat oven to 200C/fan 180C/gas 6. Mix the mascarpone with the rosemary, garlic and seasoning. Place the chicken breasts on a board and lift, but don't detach, the skin. Put a spoonful of the mascarpone mix under the skin of each breast. Wrap 2 slices of prosciutto around each, as neatly and tightly as you can, to keep the filling enclosed.
• Heat a non-stick frying pan, add the olive oil and quickly brown the chicken on both sides. Transfer to a roasting tin, then finish off in the oven for 15-20 mins until just cooked.
• Add the lemon juice to the roasting tin and stir over the heat, scraping off any crispy bits. Spoon the juices over the chicken and serve with potatoes and green beans.

PAN-FRIED MOROCCAN CHICKEN

Steps:

• Place chilli, chilli flakes, garlic, lemon juice, cinnamon, cumin, sultanas, pine nuts, half the olive oil and 1 teaspoon salt in a bowl. Mix well. Add chicken and refrigerate for 30 minutes.
• Heat the remaining olive oil in a large frypan. Add the chicken pieces and cook on one side for 1-2 minutes or until golden. Turn over, add the orange slices and cook for 2-3 minutes until cooked through. Stir through the mint. Serve with couscous and some low-fat yoghurt.

PAN-FRIED CHICKEN IN MUSHROOM SAUCE

Steps:

• Heat the oil in a large non-stick frying pan. Fry the thighs for 8-10 mins, skin side only, until golden brown, then transfer to a casserole dish. Fry the drumsticks for about 5 mins each side and add them to the thighs.
• Pour the stock over the chicken legs in the casserole. There should be enough stock to just cover the chicken, if not add a little water. Bring stock to the boil and cover, leaving lid slightly ajar. Cook at just below simmering point for 30-35 mins until chicken is cooked.
• While chicken is simmering, drain oil from the pan. Heat the butter in pan and add onion. Sweat onion for 5 mins until soft, but not coloured. Turn up the heat, add the mushrooms, then fry for 3 mins until they soften and start to smell wonderful. Pour over the white wine, raise the heat to maximum and boil rapidly for 6-8 mins until reduced by two-thirds. Turn off the heat and leave until chicken has cooked.
• Once chicken legs are cooked, strain stock into pan with the onion, mushrooms and white wine, bring back to the boil and reduce again by two-thirds until it is thick and syrupy. Pour in double cream, bring it to the boil, season if you want, then pour it over chicken. Heat chicken through in the sauce for 2-3 mins then turn off the heat and leave for a few mins before serving. This is such an aromatic and beautiful looking dish you should serve it straight from the casserole with the lid on.
