Total Time: 30 min
Prep 10 min
Cook 20 min

Yield: 4 servings

Level: Easy

Ingredients
1/2 cup all-purpose flour
1 tablespoon Essence, recipe follows
2 (6 to 8-ounce) boneless, skinless chicken breasts, cut in halves and pounded thin
1 tablespoon olive oil
4 tablespoons butter
3 cups sliced mushrooms (cremini, oyster, shiitake)
3/4 cup Marsala
1 cup chicken stock
Salt and freshly ground black pepper
Chopped chives, for garnish

Directions

In a shallow bowl or plate combine the flour and Essence and stir to combine thoroughly. Quickly dredge the chicken breast halves in the seasoned flour mixture, shaking to remove any excess flour.

Heat the oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat until very hot but not smoking. Add 1 tablespoon of the butter and cook the chicken breasts until golden brown on both sides, about 3 minutes per side. Transfer to a plate and set aside. Add 1 tablespoon of the remaining butter to the pan and add the mushrooms. Cook, stirring frequently, until mushrooms are golden brown around the edges and have given off their liquid. Add the Marsala wine and bring to a boil, scraping to remove any browned bits from the bottom of the pan. When the wine has reduced by half, add the chicken stock and cook for 3 minutes, or until the sauce has thickened slightly. Lower the heat to medium and return the chicken breasts to the pan and continue to cook until they are cooked through and the sauce has thickened, about 5 to 6 minutes. Swirl in the remaining 2 tablespoons of butter, add salt and pepper, to taste. Garnish with chopped chives and serve immediately.

Essence (Emeril's Creole Seasoning):
2 1/2 tablespoons paprika
2 tablespoons salt
2 tablespoons garlic powder
1 tablespoon black pepper
1 tablespoon onion powder
1 tablespoon cayenne pepper
1 tablespoon dried leaf oregano
1 tablespoon dried thyme

Combine all ingredients thoroughly and store in an airtight jar or container.

Yield: about 2/3 cup

Baked Chicken with Onions & Leeks Recipe


The Chicken Recipes Kitchen (The home of delicious chicken recipes) invites you to try Baked Chicken with Onions & Leeks Recipe. Enjoy our collection of quick & easy recipes and learn how to make Baked Chicken with Onions & Leeks.    

Baking pieces of chicken is one of the easiest ways to put a meal on the table for your family. This mustard-glazed chicken is roasted on a bed of sliced onions, leeks and garlic that you can serve alongside it.

6 servings
Active Time: 35 minutes
Total Time: 1 hour 20 minutes 


Ingredients

2 cups thinly sliced onions
1 cup thinly sliced and washed leek, white and light green part only
4 cloves garlic, thinly sliced
3 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil, divided
2 teaspoons fresh thyme leaves
1/4 teaspoon salt
2 1/2-3 pounds bone-in chicken pieces (thighs, drumsticks and/or breasts), skin removed, trimmed (see Tip)
1/4 cup Dijon mustard
2 teaspoons minced shallot
1 1/2 teaspoons chopped fresh rosemary
1 teaspoon reduced-sodium soy sauce
3/4 teaspoon freshly ground pepper 

Preparation

Preheat oven to 400ºF.

Toss onions, leek, garlic, 2 tablespoons oil, thyme and salt in a large bowl until the vegetables are well coated. Spread the mixture in a nonreactive 9-by-13-inch baking dish (see Tip). Place the chicken pieces on the vegetables. Bake for 10 minutes.

Whisk mustard, shallot, rosemary, soy sauce and pepper in a small bowl; gradually whisk in the remaining 1 tablespoon oil.

After 10 minutes, brush the chicken with the mustard glaze. Continue baking until an instant-read thermometer inserted into the thickest part of a leg or breast (without touching bone) registers 165°F, 30 to 45 minutes more. Serve the chicken with the vegetables. 

Tips & Notes

Tips: When using a combination of thighs, drumsticks and breasts, cut each breast in half crosswise to make pieces about the size of an average chicken thigh. And if you buy whole legs, separate the drumsticks and thighs. When all the pieces are about the same size, they’ll all cook at the same rate

A nonreactive bowl or pan—stainless-steel, enamel-coated or glass—is necessary when cooking with acidic foods, such as lemon, to prevent the food from reacting with the pan. Reactive pans, such as aluminum and cast-iron, can impart an off color and/or off flavor.

Homey, hearty and flavorful, this easy chicken stew recipe sings with apple cider, rutabaga and pears. Serve over whole-wheat egg noodles or spaetzle.

8 servings
Active Time: 30 minutes
Total Time: 45 minutes

Ingredients

4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts (8-9 ounces each), trimmed
1/4 cup all-purpose flour
3 teaspoons canola oil, divided
1/2 teaspoon salt, divided
1/2 teaspoon freshly ground pepper, divided
2 medium onions, coarsely chopped
1 cup apple cider
1 large rutabaga, peeled and cut into 1/4-by-2-inch julienne (about 8 cups)
1 cup reduced-sodium chicken broth
4 firm ripe pears, such as Anjou, Bosc or Comice
1/4 cup lemon juice
1 tablespoon chopped fresh thyme or 1 teaspoon dried

Preparation

Cut each chicken breast in half on the diagonal to make 8 roughly equal portions. Place flour on a plate and dredge the chicken to coat well on all sides, shaking off excess. (Reserve unused flour.)
 

Heat 1 teaspoon oil in a Dutch oven over medium-high heat. Add half the chicken and cook until golden, about 3 minutes per side. Remove to a plate and season with 1/8 teaspoon each salt and pepper. Add 1 teaspoon oil to the pot and brown the remaining chicken. Remove to the plate and season with 1/8 teaspoon each salt and pepper. Set aside.
 

Reduce heat to medium-low. Heat the remaining 1 teaspoon oil and add onions. Stir until golden brown, about 5 minutes. Add the reserved flour and stir 1 minute more. Gradually add apple cider and stir until thickened, about 2 minutes. Add rutabaga and broth. Bring to a simmer. Reduce heat to low, cover and simmer until the rutabaga is tender, 15 to 20 minutes.
 

Meanwhile, peel pears and cut into 1/2-inch dice. Transfer to a bowl and stir in lemon juice and thyme. 

Add to the cooked rutabaga and season with the remaining 1/4 teaspoon each salt and pepper. Lay the reserved chicken on top and cover the pot. Cook until the chicken is no longer pink in the center and the pears are tender, 5 to 6 minutes more.

You can make this with 2 bone-in chicken breasts (about 12 ounces each) instead of thighs and drumsticks, if you prefer. Remove the skin and cut each chicken breast in half on the diagonal to get 4 portions about equal in weight. Serve with sautéed chard and whole-grain rice pilaf.

4 servings
Active Time: 20 minutes
Total Time: 1 hour 20 minutes
Ingredients

1 bunch scallions
1/4 cup hoisin sauce
1 tablespoon reduced-sodium soy sauce
1 tablespoon minced fresh ginger
1 tablespoon minced garlic
1 teaspoon Asian hot sauce, such as Sriracha, or to taste
1/4 teaspoon Chinese five-spice powder (see Tips)
4 bone-in chicken thighs (1 1/4-1 1/2 pounds total), skin removed, trimmed
4 chicken drumsticks (1-1 1/4 pounds total), skin removed, trimmed
1 1/2 teaspoons toasted sesame seeds (see Tips)

Preparation

Preheat oven to 350°F. Coat a 9-by-13-inch (or similar-size) baking dish with cooking spray.

Thinly slice 1/4 cup scallion greens; set aside. Mince the whites. Whisk the scallion whites, hoisin sauce, soy sauce, ginger, garlic, hot sauce and five-spice powder in a large bowl. Add chicken and toss to coat.

Arrange the chicken in an even layer in the prepared baking dish, meatier-side down. Pour any remaining sauce from the bowl over the chicken.

Bake, turning once halfway so the meatier side is up, until an instant-read thermometer inserted into the thickest part without touching bone registers 165°F, about 1 hour. Transfer the chicken to a serving platter and top with any remaining sauce from the baking dish. Sprinkle with sesame seeds and the reserved scallion greens.
Tips & Notes

Make Ahead Tip: Prepare through Step 2; cover and refrigerate for up to 1 day. Let stand at room temperature while the oven preheats.

Tips: Chinese five-spice powder is a blend of cinnamon, cloves, fennel seed, star anise and Szechuan peppercorns. Look for it in the spice section of the supermarket or with other Asian ingredients.
Sesame seeds can be purchased already toasted. Look for them near other Asian ingredients. Or toast your own in a small dry skillet over low heat, stirring constantly, until golden and fragrant, about 2 minutes.

The Chicken Recipes Kitchen (The home of delicious chicken recipes) invites you to try Five spice chicken and fried rice Recipe. Enjoy our collection of quick & easy recipes and learn how to make Five spice chicken and fried rice.  

Keep dinner fast, interesting and tasty with these bulk-buy items. 

Ingredients (serves 4) 

1.5kg mixed chicken pieces, trimmed
1/2 cup cornflour
1 tablespoon Chinese five spice powder
1 teaspoon white pepper
2 teaspoons sea salt
2 tablespoons lemon juice rice bran oil cooking spray
450g packet white rice in 2 1/2 minutes
2 teaspoons Alfa One rice bran oil
2 eggs, lightly beaten
4 green onions, thinly sliced
1 cup frozen peas
2 tablespoons light soy sauce
 

Method 

Preheat oven to 220ºC/200ºC fan-forced. Place a wire rack over a large baking tray. Using a sharp knife, cut slits in chicken.

Combine cornflour, five spice, pepper and salt in a large snap-lock bag. Brush chicken with lemon juice. Spray lightly with oil. Place in snap-lock bag. Seal. Toss to coat. Place chicken on wire rack. Bake for 30 minutes, spraying chicken lightly with oil halfway through cooking, or until golden and crisp.

Meanwhile, cook rice according to packet directions. Transfer to a bowl. Cool for 10 minutes. Heat a wok over medium heat. Add 1 teaspoon oil. Swirl to coat. Stir-fry egg for 2 to 3 minutes or until scrambled. Transfer to a bowl. Add remaining oil to wok. Swirl to coat. Add rice, onion, peas, soy sauce and egg. Stir-fry for 2 to 3 minutes or until heated through. Serve chicken with rice mixture.
 

Notes 

Buy mixed chicken pieces in bulk and freeze in a single layer in a freezer or snap-lock bag for up to 3 months.

Timesaver shortcut: We've saved you time by using white rice in 2 1/2 minutes, which is cooked in the microwave.

About this recipe: We used a combination of chicken drumsticks, wings and chicken thigh cutlets with the skin on. They're available from the supermarket deli or the fresh meat and poultry section.
