CHICKEN STROGANOFF

Steps:

• Sprinkle chicken with garlic powder, salt and pepper on both sides.
• Heat oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Place chicken in skillet smooth side down.
• Press down lightly with with spatula. Cook for 4 minutes until golden.
• Turn and press lightly with spatula. Cook for 2 minutes.
• Remove chicken onto a plate.
• Turn heat down to medium high. Add butter, melt. Then add onions, cook for 1 minute, then add mushrooms.
• Cook mushrooms until golden. Scrape bottom of fry pan to get all the golden bits off (this is flavour!).
• Add flour, cook, stirring, for 1 minute.
• Add half the broth while stirring. Once incorporated, add remaining broth.
• Stir, then add sour cream and mustard. Stir until incorporated (don't worry if it looks split, sour cream will "melt" as it heats).
• Bring to simmer ,then reduce heat to medium low. Once it thickens to the consistency of pouring cream (3 minutes), adjust salt and pepper to taste.
• Add chicken back in (including plate juices). Simmer for 1 minute, then remove from stove.
• Serve over pasta or egg noodles, sprinkled with parsley or chives if desired.

CHICKEN AND ARTICHOKE STROGANOFF

Steps:

• Drain artichoke hearts, reserving 1/3 cup liquid, and set the artichoke hearts aside. Add enough olive oil to reserved liquid to make 1/2 cup. Stir in 1 Tbsp herbs.
• In a large skillet over medium-high heat, sauté garlic in 1 Tbsp olive oil until garlic just begins to turn white (do not brown).
• Add onion and cook until just beginning to turn transparent (again, do not brown).
• Add chicken and 1/4 cup oil-herb mixture; cook until chicken is browned.
• Meanwhile, combine flour and remaining herbs in a small bowl and stir well. Add the flour mixture to remaining oil-herb mixture and stir until smooth. Pour over chicken. Stir to combine; add boiling water and stir.
• Bring mixture to a boil and cover, reduce the heat, and simmer 4-5 minutes or until chicken is done. Remove from heat.
• Stir in the reserved artichoke hearts and sour cream and heat through. Serve over hot rice or noodles.

CHICKEN STROGANOFF

Steps:

• In a large skillet, melt the butter over medium heat. Add the mushrooms and cook, stirring occasionally, until golden brown, 5 to 7 minutes. Season with salt and pepper. Remove from the skillet and set aside.
• Season the chicken with salt and pepper. Return the skillet to the stove, add the olive oil and increase the heat to medium high. Add the chicken, working in batches if necessary, and cook until it begins to brown on each side, about 5 minutes. Add the onions and cook until tender, 3 to 4 minutes. Stir in the flour and cook for an additional 2 minutes. Stir in the broth, scraping up any browned bits with a wooden spoon. Stir in the Worcestershire sauce, soup mix and cooked mushrooms. Reduce the heat to low and simmer until the broth is thickened to a gravy, about 7 minutes. Stir in the sour cream.
• Serve over egg noodles with a dollop of sour cream and garnish with fresh chives.

CHICKEN WITH ARTICHOKES AND LEMON

Steps:

• If using fresh artichokes, fill a large bowl with water. Cut 1 lemon in half then squeeze the juice into the water; add the spent lemon halves to the bowl, too.
• Prepare the artichokes one at a time, rubbing them all over with the spent lemon halves as you cut and expose the inner artichoke heart. First, cut off at least 1 inch of the thorny top. Trim the stem near the heart, leaving about 2 inches of stem if possible, then peel off the outer green fiber of the stem. Using your fingers, tear off the tough outer leaves, then switch to a sharp paring or bird's beak knife, when necessary, to shave more inner artichoke leaves until you reach the tender pale green or yellow leaves and create a bulbous shape. Gently open the leaves and remove the choke using a grapefruit spoon or melon baller, then scrape and tear (or slice) the remaining leaves off so that only the bottom remains. Cut the artichoke heart in quarters; put the quarters in the lemon water as you work to prevent discoloration. Discard the rest of the artichoke, leaves and stem, or reserve for another use.
• Pat chicken dry, then season all over with salt and pepper. In a large skillet, warm the olive oil over medium-high heat, then add the chicken, skin-side down. Cook, undisturbed until well browned, 7 to 8 minutes. Flip and brown the other side, about 5 minutes. Transfer chicken thighs to a plate and spoon out about 3 tablespoons of fat from the pan, if desired. (You can discard the excess fat or save for another use.)
• Return the skillet to medium heat and add the onion, garlic, parsley and saffron. Season with salt and pepper, and cook, stirring occasionally, until onion is translucent, about 5 minutes. Sprinkle the cinnamon over the onion, then stir to combine.
• Add the broth to deglaze, scraping the bottom of the pan, and bring to a simmer over medium-high. Return the chicken to the pan, nestling it into the pan skin-side up. Arrange the artichokes between the chicken pieces, cover, and simmer over medium-low until the chicken is cooked through, 20 to 25 minutes. Remove the chicken with a slotted spoon and transfer to a plate.
• Raise the heat to medium-high and cook until the sauce is thickened and the artichokes slightly browned, about 5 minutes. Stir in the juice from half the remaining lemon, taste, and adjust with salt and more lemon juice if needed. Spoon artichokes and pan sauces over the chicken, sprinkle with parsley to garnish, and serve.
