Maple Chicken Cream De Brie Sauce Recipes

BAKED BRIE WITH QUEBEC MAPLE SYRUP

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 200 degrees F (95 degrees C). Place the unwrapped Brie cheese into a baking dish, sprinkle with walnuts, and pour maple syrup over the nuts and cheese.
• Bake in the preheated oven until the cheese warms and softens, about 10 minutes. Serve cheese with slices of baguette.

MAPLE-GLAZED CHICKEN BREASTS

Steps:

• Whisk syrup, soy sauce, lemon juice, garlic, ginger and pepper in a small, shallow dish. Add chicken and turn to coat with the marinade; cover and refrigerate for 2 hours, turning once.
• Coat an indoor grill pan with cooking spray and heat over medium heat. Remove the chicken from the marinade (reserving the marinade) and cook until an instant-read thermometer inserted into the thickest part of the breast registers 165 degrees F, 3 to 5 minutes per side.
• Meanwhile, pour the reserved marinade into a small saucepan and bring to a simmer over medium heat. Cook until reduced by about half, about 4 minutes. Liberally baste the chicken with the reduced sauce and serve.

MAPLE CHICKEN CREAM DE BRIE SAUCE

Steps:

• Place chicken in large mixing bowl, add red pepper, sage, garlic, honey, brown sugar, and maple syrup, and mix thoroughly. Add bread crumbs, salt, and pepper. Place mixture in refrigerator for 15 minutes to set.
• Preheat oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit.
• Place stuffing in pastry bag with a wide tip. Pipe about 4-ounces of stuffing into the pocket of each chicken breast. In a large saute pan, add enough olive oil to cover the bottom of the pan lightly, and heat. Dust the chicken with flour, and saute to brown all sides, place in oven to finish cooking for 8 to 10 minutes.
• Ladle 2 ounces of the Cream de Brie Sauce on to each of 6 plates. Slice chicken into 6 to 7 pieces, and lay on top of sauce. Ladle 1-ounce of sauce over chicken. Sprinkle plate with chopped parsley to finish.
• Reduce wine, garlic, and shallots by 1/2, add cream, and simmer for 10 minutes. Reduce heat, add the Brie and mustard, and mix until smooth. Keep warm until needed.

FARFALLE DEL MONDO

Steps:

• Pound the chicken breasts to even thickness with a meat mallet to cook evenly. Season both sides of the chicken breasts with salt and pepper. Sprinkle southwest seasoning on both sides of chicken. Lightly coat with olive oil. Grill chicken over coals with mesquite or hickory chips added. (In metal tray if using a gas grill). Rotate chicken a quarter turn after a few minutes to add grill marks. Turn chicken over after about 5 to 7 minutes and grill the other side the same way. When chicken is done (moist and tender) take off the grill and let rest.
• Bring a large pot of slightly salted water to a boil for the pasta. Add pasta and cook until it is al dente. Keep cooked pasta covered and warm in a slight bit of its water. In a small, ungreased frying pan, toast pine nuts until they are golden brown. Key - Do NOT burn the pine nuts or the entire dish will taste bitter. Cut the outer covering (rind) off the brie. Throw away the rind and set the cheese aside. Heat a large frying pan to medium-high heat and add all of the olive oil. After 30 seconds or so add the tomato, garlic, parsley/cilantro and basil. Let this saute for about 1 minute. Key - have all of the ingredients ready and next to the stove because this sauce works fast! Add the brie and toasted pine nuts. Toss or slowly stir over low heat for two minutes or until the cheese is completely incorporated into the sauce. You should have a medium thick sauce with a beautifully rich pink color with splashes of green. Drain the remaining water off the pasta in a colander. Place a nice portion of pasta on a decorative plate. Chop the chicken breasts on a bias and place on top of the pasta. Ladle a fair amount of the brie sauce over the chicken and pasta.
