Sautéed Chicken With Licorice And Ginger Recipes

SAUTEED CHICKEN BREASTS WITH FRESH HERBS AND GINGER

Steps:

• Heat the oil in a medium skillet over medium-high heat until shimmering. Season both sides of the chicken breasts with salt and pepper, and place them skin side down in the pan. Cook, turning once, until firm to the touch, about 5 minutes per side. Transfer the chicken breasts to a plate.
• Add the lime juice to the skillet, and scrape up any browned bits that cling to the pan with a wooden spoon. Add the chicken broth and ginger, and bring to a boil. Off the heat, add the basil and mint to the pan and swirl the pan to combine.
• Divide the chicken between the 2 plates and spoon the herb sauce over the chicken. Serve.

CHICKEN WITH GINGER

Steps:

• Soak ginger in cold water 10 minutes; drain.
• Heat oil in a skillet over high heat; brown chicken in two batches, 6 to 8 minutes. Set aside.
• In same skillet over medium heat, cook ginger, onion, and garlic, stirring until browned, 8 to 10 minutes. Add soy sauce, vinegar, and sugar; cook over high heat until thick, 3 to 4 minutes. Add chicken; stir to warm. Remove from heat; stir in scallions.

SAUTéED CHICKEN WITH LICORICE AND GINGER

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 500. Place the oil and butter in a Dutch oven or heavy casserole, and turn the heat to high. Season the chicken on both sides with salt and pepper.
• When the butter foam subsides, add the chicken, skin-side down, and brown well on both sides, for about 8 to 10 minutes, turning once.
• When the chicken is browned, tuck the minced vegetables and ginger and chopped mushrooms underneath the pieces, and dust the tops with 1/2 teaspoon licorice powder and the amchur powder or lemon juice. Top with the baby carrots or carrot strips.
• Add the port or wine, and cook 1 minute, then add the stock and transfer the casserole to the oven. Roast 5 minutes, then remove the breast and wing-breast pieces; place them on a warm platter. Roast another 10 minutes, then remove the casserole from the oven and place on top of the stove; return the set-aside white meat to the pot.
• Cook 1 minute over high heat, then taste and add more salt and pepper if necessary. Sprinkle with enough lemon juice to balance the sweetness of the licorice, about a tablespoon, and serve.
