CHICKEN BREASTS WITH FENNEL AND LEMON
Lemon is chicken's best friend - stuffed whole inside a roasting bird with a sprig of rosemary; wrapped in foil, baked soft and puréed for a sauce, à la Jean-Georges Vongerichten; or tossed with fennel and egg yolk for a rich, tangy sauce as in this recipe from the food writer Marlena Spieler. It is a simple, rich and wonderfully elegant way to prepare the humble chicken breast. First, lightly brown the chicken and remove it from the pan. Add the fennel, wine, lemon zest, broth and a pinch of cinnamon (trust us) to the pan and bring it all to a boil, reducing until it thickens. Return the chicken to the pan and let it simmer while you beat a couple of egg yolks and some lemon juice together. Incorporate a bit of the pan sauce into the egg yolk mixture, then add it all to the pan. Cook a bit more until the sauce is creamy and your mouth waters with anticipation.

Steps:
- Zest lemon and slice zest into matchsticks. Juice lemon, strain and reserve.
- Lightly sprinkle chicken with salt. Put deep frying pan over medium-high heat, pour in oil and gently sauté chicken breasts, about two minutes per side, until they are about half-cooked. Remove from pan.
- Pour off oil and discard, then add fennel, wine and lemon zest to pan. Bring to boil over high heat and cook until wine is reduced by about half and fennel is tender. Add broth and cinnamon, bring to boil and cook about 5 minutes to reduce sauce a bit.
- Add chicken with its juices and cook for 2 or 3 minutes.
- Meanwhile, in a small bowl, beat egg yolks with half the lemon juice (about 1 tablespoon), then ladle in about 1/4 cup of sauce. Mix well, then add to pan, mixing well. Cook over medium heat, stirring a bit, until sauce appears creamy. Taste and add more lemon juice, if you like.

ROASTED CHICKEN WITH LEMON BUTTER
Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F. Place a large skillet or roasting pan in the oven to preheat while you prepare the chicken.
- Begin by preparing a lemon butter. Place 4 tablespoons of the butter in a mixing bowl and add about 1 teaspoon of zest from the lemons. Season with salt and pepper and mix well.
- Flatten the chicken by cutting out the backbone and flattening the breast by firmly pressing with the heel of your hand. Sprinkle both sides of the chicken with salt and pepper. Using your fingers, loosely separate the skin from the breast and thighs. Smear the lemon butter evenly in the cavity between the skin and meat, ensuring it is worked evenly over the bird. With the skin side facing up, drizzle olive oil over the chicken.
- Remove the preheated pan from the oven and place the chicken in the pan, skin-side down.
- Place the lemon slices over the bird along with fennel, onions, garlic, thyme and oregano. As it cooks, this will flavor the bird.
- Place in the oven and roast for 30 minutes. Remove from the oven, flip the chicken to skin-side up and add half the wine to the pan. Return to the oven and roast until an instant-read thermometer inserted into the joint between the leg and thigh registers 165 degrees F, approximately 30 minutes longer. When the chicken is done, remove from the pan to a serving platter and allow to rest for 15 minutes before carving and plating.
- Meanwhile, make a pan sauce. Place the chicken pan over medium-high heat and add the remaining butter and wine. Stir until the butter is melted and the sauce thickens slightly. Pour the pan sauce over the platter of chicken. Serve immediately.

- Use a mortar and pestle to crush together the fennel seeds, whole coriander seeds, and black peppercorns.
- Use kitchen shears to remove any excess chicken skin or fat. Use paper towels to remove any excess moisture from the skin. Place the chicken in a large bowl and rub your chicken pieces with 2 tablespoons of olive oil. Then cover your chicken with the spice mixture, both over and under the skin. Season with salt according to taste. Now that you’ve got the chicken ready, set it aside at room temperature for about 20 minutes.
- Turn on all the gas burners to high and heat the grill for 10-15 minutes. Keep the lid down. When ready to grill, brush the grill grates with oil or cooking spray; leave one of the burners on medium-high and turn the other burners on low.
- Place chicken on oiled grill grates with the skin side down over the hottest part of the grill. Close the lid, and let the meat cook for 2-4 minutes. Flip and grill the other side for another 2 minutes. Move the chicken, skin side up to the cooler side of the grill, close the lid and cook undisturbed for 30-40 minutes longer. Grill until the internal temperature reaches 170°F (77°C) inserted in the thigh, not touching the bone. This is usually taken in the thickest part of the meat. An instant read thermometer can also be used.
