Chicken Rossini Recipes

TOURNEDOS ROSSINI

Steps:

• Season the filets mignons with salt and pepper; set aside. In a small bowl, combine the veal stock or demi-glace, truffle juice and chopped truffles; set aside.
• In a large skillet over medium heat, melt a third of the butter with the oil and quickly fry the slices of bread until lightly browned on both sides; remove and set aside. Add another third of the butter to the skillet, and sauté the filets mignons over high heat for 4 minutes a side for rare or 5 minutes a side for medium-rare. Remove the filets from the skillet, set aside and keep warm.
• Using the same skillet and high heat, sauté the foie gras slices 90 seconds on each side and put 1 slice on each of the filets.
• Discard all fat from the skillet. While the skillet is still hot, add the Madeira, scraping the bottom of the pan. Add the veal stock mixture, bring to a quick boil, then remove from heat and stir in the remaining butter to make a silky sauce. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
• On each of two plates, place the croutons in the center and top with the filet mignon and foie gras. Garnish with a slice of truffle on the top. Spoon the sauce over and around. Serve hot.

ONE POT ITALIAN CHICKEN & ORZO / RISONI PASTA

Steps:

• Mix Marinade ingredients together in a large bowl. Add chicken and mix to coat. Marinate for 1 hour - 24 hours (See Note 3 to skip marinating).
• Heat oil in skillet over medium heat. Add chicken and cook for 4 minutes on each side, or until cooked. Transfer to a plate and cover with foil to keep warm while resting.
• Turn heat up to medium high. Add oil if required.
• Add onion and garlic, cook for 2 minutes. Add capsicum and cook for 1 minute or until onion is translucent.
• Add risoni, tomato, chicken stock, Italian herbs, red pepper flakes, salt and pepper. Mix and bring to simmer, then lower heat to medium low or so it simmers gently.
• Cook for 9 - 10 minutes, stirring frequently (otherwise it will stick).
• Take it off the stove when the risoni is just cooked (touch under is ok, finishes cooking in residual heat very quickly). It should still be saucy (see video).
• Stir through parmesan and basil - excess liquid will evaporate in this step.
• Spoon risoni into serving bowls, top with chicken. Serve with extra parmesan and basil.

ONE POT CHICKEN, VEGETABLE & PARMESAN ORZO (RISONI)

Steps:

• Heat oil in a large pan over high heat. Make sure the pan is reasonably deep - around 5cm / 2.5" or more. Otherwise, use a large pot.
• Add garlic and onion, cook for 1 minute.
• Add chicken, sprinkle with salt and pepper then cook for 2 minutes until cooked on the outside (raw inside).
• Add frozen vegetables (still frozen ok) and flour, stir until flour is incorporated.
• Add risoni/orzo, stock and milk, then stir well.
• Bring to simmer then adjust heat so it's bubbling gently (see video). Cook for 7 minutes (no lid), stirring every now and then, until risoni is almost tender (still quite soupy at this stage).
• Add parmesan and spinach, stir through. Add salt and pepper to taste.
• Consistency should be like a loose risotto (it absorbs liquid and thickens quite quickly when serving), nice and creamy.
• Serve, garnished with parsley and more parmesan if desired!

• Add a layer of tomato to each chicken breast followed by a layer of ham and a layer of mushrooms, add stock, cover with Foil and bake for 20-30 minutes or until chicken is cooked through (when poked with fork juices run clear!).
• Add cheeses to top of each breast and return to oven uncovered.
• Bake until cheeses are melted.

• Some sauted zuccinni squash on the side is really good and can also be used as an edible garnish.

SHRIMP ROSSINI PASTA

Steps:

• In a large pot, begin boiling water to cook pasta. Cook pasta according to package directions.
• In a large skillet, heat 1 Tbsp. olive oil, and add shrimp. Sprinkle with a little garlic salt to season. Cook for 2-3 minutes, just until shrimp is light pink. Remove from skillet to bowl and set aside. Cover to keep warm.
• In the same skillet, heat 1 Tbsp. olive oil. Add garlic and onion and cook for 6-8 minutes until onion is translucent. Add the white wine, and bring to a simmer. Simmer for 2-3 minutes (this will cook off the alcohol.) Add the tomatoes, tomato sauce, and capers. Bring to a simmer, and stirring occasionally. Add the salt, cayenne pepper and red pepper flakes. Stir to incorporate the spices while simmering. Add the half and half, and cooked shrimp while continue to simmer.
• Once pasta is finished cooking, immediately add to the sauce. Stir to completely incorporate the sauce and pasta. Serve immediately. Top with shaved Parmesan, Romano or Assiago cheese.
