BASIC SAUTEED CHICKEN RECIPE - (4.1/5)

Steps:

• 1. Begin by trimming the chicken breasts if they need trimming. I use my beloved kitchen scissors and snip off any shaggy bits of fat or gristle. 2. Pat them dry with paper towels (to helps them brown) and sprinkle them with some kosher salt. 3. Heat a very large pan over medium-high heat and add the butter, which should melt and foam, and the olive oil, which should stop the butter from burning. When the fat is all very hot but not turning black (recipes say "when the foam subsides"), add the chicken breasts in one layer. Now leave them alone for 5 or so minutes while the bottom gets nice and crusty and brown. 4. Use tongs or a spatula to flip them over as they brown, and then cook another 4 or so minutes until the bottom is very brown and the chicken is cooked through. You may want to cut a piece open to check, but pressing a cooked breast with your fingertip will give you a feel for its doneness, which will develop over time into the skill of knowing when it's done without cutting it. 5. Pile the chicken on a heat-proof plate and pop it into a 200ºF heated oven while you "deglaze" the pan. Pour the wine in and scrape with a spatula to dissolve all the yummy browned bits while the wine bubbles and boils furiously in the hot pan. 6. When the wine has cooked down about halfway, add the broth, turn the heat to high, and cook until the sauce seems syrupy and delicious. Taste it for salt, then drizzle it over the chicken, sprinkle with parsley, and serve. Sometimes, if the chicken has browned but doesn't seem quite cooked through, I leave it in the pan while I make the sauce so that it can simmer in there a bit longer.

ITALIAN STYLE PAN SAUCE

Steps:

• Over medium-high heat, in the pan you used to cook the chicken, sauté minced garlic until fragrant, about 30 seconds.
• Stir in the tomato paste and Italian seasoning. Stir for just a few seconds.
• Add the stock and wine, stirring and scraping the bottom of the pan to dissolve the fond. Reduce liquid by about half.
• Taste, and add a little salt and/or pepper if necessary. Reducing the sauce intensifies the saltiness, so don't add any until you finish the reduction.
• Remove from the heat and whisk in the herbs and extra virgin olive oil.
