Total Time: 35 min
Prep 15 min
Cook 20 min

Yield: 6 servings
Level: Intermediate

Ingredients

6 (3-ounce) chicken cutlets, pounded to evenly flatten
Salt and freshly ground black pepper
6 paper-thin slices prosciutto
1 (10-ounce) box frozen chopped spinach, thawed
3 tablespoons olive oil
1/4 cup grated Parmesan
1 (14-ounce) can low-salt chicken broth
2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice

Directions

Place the chicken cutlets flat on the work surface. Sprinkle the chicken with salt and pepper. Lay 1 slice of prosciutto atop each chicken cutlet.

Squeeze the frozen spinach to remove the excess water. Season the spinach with salt and pepper. In a small bowl, toss the spinach with 1 tablespoon of oil to coat.

Arrange an even, thin layer of spinach atop the prosciutto slices. Sprinkle the Parmesan evenly over each. Beginning at the short tapered end, roll up each chicken cutlet as for a jellyroll. Secure with a toothpick.

Heat the remaining 2 tablespoons of oil in a heavy large skillet over high heat. Add the chicken and cook just until golden brown, about 2 minutes per side. Add the chicken broth and lemon juice, and scrape the browned bits off the bottom of the pan with a wooden spoon. Bring the liquid to a boil. Reduce the heat to medium. Cover and simmer until the chicken is just cooked through, about 8 to 10 minutes. Transfer the chicken to a platter. Simmer the cooking liquid over high heat until it is reduced to about 2/3 cup, about 5 minutes. Season the cooking liquid with salt and pepper, to taste. Remove toothpicks from the chicken. Drizzle the reduced cooking liquid over the chicken and serve immediately.

Total Time: 1 hr 0 min
Prep 20 min
Cook 40 min

Yield: 6 servings
Level: Easy

Ingredients

4 skinless chicken breast halves, with ribs
2 skinless chicken thighs, with bones
1/2 teaspoon salt, plus 1 teaspoon
1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper, plus 1 teaspoon
1/4 cup olive oil
1 red bell pepper, sliced
1 yellow bell pepper, sliced
3 ounces prosciutto, chopped
2 cloves garlic, chopped
1 (15-ounce) can diced tomatoes
1/2 cup white wine
1 tablespoon fresh thyme leaves
1 teaspoon fresh oregano leaves
1/2 cup chicken stock
2 tablespoons capers
1/4 cup chopped fresh flat-leaf parsley leaves

Directions

Season the chicken with 1/2 teaspoon salt and 1/2 teaspoon pepper. In a heavy, large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. When the oil is hot, cook the chicken until browned on both sides. Remove from the pan and set aside.

Keeping the same pan over medium heat, add the peppers and prosciutto and cook until the peppers have browned and the prosciutto is crisp, about 5 minutes. Add the garlic and cook for 1 minute. Add the tomatoes, wine, and herbs. Using a wooden spoon, scrape the browned bits off the bottom of the pan. Return the chicken to the pan, add the stock, and bring the mixture to a boil. Reduce the heat and simmer, covered, until the chicken is cooked through, about 20 to 30 minutes.

If serving immediately, add the capers and the parsley. Stir to combine and serve. If making ahead of time, transfer the chicken and sauce to a storage container, cool, and refrigerate. The next day, reheat the chicken to a simmer over medium heat. Stir in the capers and the parsley and serve.

Chicken & mushroom puff pie recipe

Photo: Chicken & mushroom puff pie  recipe

The Chicken Recipes Kitchen (The home of delicious chicken recipes) invites you to try Chicken & mushroom puff pie recipe. Enjoy our collection of quick & easy recipes and learn how to make Chicken & mushroom puff pie.

This is just what you need on a cold night. Serve with creamy mashed potatoes

Easy
Serves 4 - 6
Prep 45 mins
Cook 30 mins
Freezable
(filling only, whole pie if using fresh pastry)

Ingredients

1 tbsp vegetable oil
8 skinless boneless chicken thighs
8 rashers smoked streaky bacon , cut into large pieces
1 onion , halved and sliced
250g pack baby button mushrooms
handful thyme sprigs
2 tbsp plain flour
400ml chicken stock
200ml milk
500g pack fresh puff pastry , or frozen and defrosted
1 egg , beaten

Method

Heat the oil in a large, non-stick frying pan. Season the chicken to taste and fry for 5-8 mins until golden brown, turning occasionally. You may need to do this in two batches, depending on the size of your pan. Lift the chicken onto a plate and tip the bacon into the pan. Fry for 5 mins until crisp. Add the onion, mushrooms and thyme, then fry on a high heat for another 3 mins until the onions start to colour.

Tip the flour into the pan and cook, stirring, for 1 min. With the pan off the heat, gradually stir or whisk in the stock, followed by the milk, then add the chicken back to the pan. Bring to the boil, then simmer for 30 mins. Spoon the filling into a large pie or baking dish (approx 20 x 30cm) with a lip and leave to cool.

Heat oven to 220C/fan 200C/gas 7. On a floured surface, roll the pastry to the thickness of two £1 coins. Cut a long strip as wide as the rim of the pie dish and, using a little of the egg, fix to the edge of the pie dish. Brush with egg, then lift the rest of the pastry over the pie, using the rolling pin to help. Gently press the edges with your fingers and trim with a sharp knife. Brush lightly with egg to glaze, then bake for 30 mins or until the pastry is risen and dark golden brown.

A perfectly creamy chicory and chicken dish for a dinner party

Easy
Serves 4
Prep 10 - 15 mins
Cook 35 - 40 mins

Ingredients

3 head of white chicory
1 tbsp olive oil
3 tbsp dry white wine , chicken stock or water
4 skinless boneless chicken breasts
25.0g butter
1 shallot , finely chopped
1 garlic clove , chopped

FOR THE SAUCE

25.0g butter
1 tbsp plain flour
300.0ml milk
150.0ml crème fraîche or soured cream
4-6 sage leaves, chopped
2-3 tsp smooth Dijon mustard
2-3 tsp grainy Dijon mustard
50.0g grated Gruyère or cheshire cheese

Method

Preheat your oven to fan 180C/conventional 200C/gas 6. Trim away the stalk ends of the chicory, discard any limp or tired outer leaves, then cut the vegetable lengthways into quarters. Pour the oil over the bottom of a large shallow baking dish and arrange the sections of chicory, cut-side up, in a single layer. Pour over the wine, stock or water and cover with foil. Bake for 10 minutes while you prepare the rest of the ingredients.
 

Slice the chicken into strips 1cm thick. Season lightly with salt and pepper. Melt the butter in a large frying pan until foaming, add sliced chicken and cook for 4-5 minutes or until the chicken is just turning golden brown. Stir in the shallot and garlic and cook for 1 minute. Remove the dish from the oven and add the chicken mixture to the chicory. Replace the foil and set the dish aside while you make the sauce.
 

Melt the butter for the sauce in the frying pan (no need to wash it) then stir in the flour. Gradually pour in the milk, stirring all the time until the mixture thickens. Remove from the heat and stir in the crème fraîche or soured cream and sage with 2 tsp each of both mustards. Taste and add extra mustard plus salt and pepper if you think they're needed.
 

Pour the sauce over the chicory and chicken and sprinkle cheese on top. Bake, uncovered, for a further 25-30 minutes until the sauce is bubbling and the top is golden.

Lemon Chicken Recipe

Serve this dish with steamed white rice.

4 servings Prep: 25 mins Cook: 25 mins

Ingredients

1 cup Lemon Curd
1/3 cup rice vinegar
Salt
Vegetable oil, for deep-frying
3/4 cup plus 2 tablespoons flour
1/2 cup cornstarch
1 tablespoon baking powder
1 pound skinless, boneless chicken thighs, cut into 1-inch pieces
1 large red bell pepper, cut into matchsticks
2 bunches scallions, cut into 2-inch pieces

Directions

Preheat the oven to 200 degrees . Set a rack on a baking sheet next to the stovetop. In a medium bowl, whisk together the lemon curd, vinegar and 1/2 teaspoon salt.

Fill a large saucepan with enough oil to reach a depth of 2 inches and heat over medium-high heat until it registers 350 degrees ; on a deep-fry thermometer. In a medium bowl, whisk together 1 cup water, 3/4 cup flour, the cornstarch, baking powder and 1/2 teaspoon salt.

In another medium bowl, toss the chicken with the remaining 2 tablespoons flour and a pinch of salt. Working in 3 batches, coat the chicken with the batter and, using tongs, add each piece to the hot oil. Fry until golden, about 5 minutes. Using a slotted spoon, transfer the fried chicken to the prepared rack and keep warm in the oven. Let the oil return to 350 degrees between batches and repeat with the remaining chicken.

Add the bell pepper and scallions to the hot oil and fry until crisp-tender, about 2 minutes. Using a slotted spoon, transfer the vegetables to the lemon curd sauce. Arrange the chicken on a platter and spoon the sauce on top.

Tip Use 1-inch cubes of firm tofu instead of the chicken.
