Chicken Supremes In Parchment With Roasted Squash Sauce And Baby Bok Choy Recipes

CHICKEN SUPREME WITH TRUFFLE AND SAGE

Steps:

• For the chicken: Loosen the skin from the breast and wing by inserting fingers, gently pushing between the skin and meat. Insert the truffle slices under the loosened skin over the breast and wing. Cover with sage leaves and put the skin back. Season the chicken with salt and pepper.
• Preheat the oven at 350 degrees F.
• In a large skillet, on high heat, sear the chicken pieces skin-side down and finish cooking in the oven for 15 minutes.
• For the sauce: Reduce the chicken stock by 1/2 for 30 minutes. Add the Dijon mustard and lemon juice. Slowly add the butter, whisking constantly until emulsified. Season the sauce with salt and pepper, to taste.
• Serve the chicken with oven-roasted Jerusalem artichokes, recipe follows.
• Preheat the oven at 350 degrees F.
• Cut the artichokes in half.
• In a bowl, mix everything together. Put on a baking tray, flesh-side down and bake in the oven for 45 minutes or until caramelized and tender.

OYSTER SAUCE CHICKEN WITH BOK CHOY

Steps:

• For the chicken: In a large bowl, sprinkle the chicken with salt and pepper. Add the cornstarch and toss to coat.
• For the sauce: In another smaller bowl, combine the stock, cornstarch, oyster sauce, soy sauce and chili sauce. Mix well and set aside.
• For the stir-fry: Heat a wok over high heat and, when the wok starts to smoke, add the peanut oil. Add the ginger and stir-fry for a few seconds. Then add the chicken, let settle for 1 minute, and then stir-fry for 3 minutes more. As the chicken starts to turn opaque, add the rice wine and stir-fry for 30 seconds. Stir in the reserved sauce and bring to a boil. Add the mushrooms and bok choy stalks and cook for 1 minute. Then stir in the bok choy leaves and cook for another minute. Remove from the heat and stir in half the scallions. Transfer to a serving dish, garnish with the remaining scallions and serve immediately.

SHEET-PAN SCALLION CHICKEN WITH BOK CHOY

Steps:

• Heat oven to 450 degrees. In a small bowl, combine scallions, mustard, ginger, garlic, miso, sugar, 1 teaspoon salt, 1/2 teaspoon pepper and 6 tablespoons of the oil. Mix well.
• On a rimmed baking sheet, toss bok choy with the remaining 2 tablespoons oil and season with salt and pepper, then spread in an even layer. Season chicken with salt and pepper, arrange on top of bok choy and rub chicken all over with the scallion-mustard marinade.
• Roast until chicken is cooked through and vegetables are tender, about 30 minutes.
• Serve chicken and vegetables over rice or mashed potatoes. Spoon pan juices over the chicken and garnish with scallions. Serve with lemon wedges.

MICROWAVE BABY BOK CHOY WITH MISO SAUCE

Steps:

• Put 3 tablespoons of water in a large heatsafe glass bowl. Add the bok choy, ginger and garlic. Gently stir to combine. Cover with a vented lid or plastic wrap with 6 small holes poked in it. Microwave on high for 3 minutes. Carefully uncover and stir the bok choy. Cover again and cook on high until the bok choy is crisp-tender, about 3 more minutes.
• Meanwhile, whisk together the miso paste, sesame oil, rice vinegar, 3 tablespoons water and a pinch of black pepper in a small bowl. Reserve.
• Use a pair of tongs to transfer the bok choy to a serving platter, discarding any extra liquid and the garlic cloves left behind in the bowl. Drizzle with the miso sauce and garnish with the toasted sesame seeds.
