PAN SAUTEED BUTTER CHICKEN AND POTATOES

Steps:

• Chicken:
• Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F.
• Season the chicken thighs with salt and pepper, to taste. In a medium oven-proof frying pan over high heat, add the oil and butter and stir to combine. Add garlic and thyme and cook until the butter is slightly browned. Add the chicken, skin side, down and let it sit in the pan so the skin becomes crispy and golden. While the skin is crisping up, spoon the hot butter/oil over the thighs. Once the skin is crisp, about 5 minutes, and releases from the pan easily, turn the chicken over. Continue cooking for another 5 minutes to sear the meat. Put in the oven and roast for approximately 10 to 15 minutes. Depending on how large the thighs are, check for doneness.
• Potatoes:
• Have an ice bath ready before beginning. Bring a medium stockpot of salted water to boil over medium heat. Blanch each of the varieties of potatoes and carrots; starting with the fingerlings, Yukon gold, carrots and purple Peruvians last. Cook each batch until tender, but still with a little bite. After blanching each set of vegetables, use a strainer remove all of the vegetables out of the water and dunk them in the ice water bath. Once they are cold to the touch, drain and set aside. Right before serving, get a medium fry pan heated over high heat, add the a little oil and some butter. Once the butter is melted and hot, add the potatoes and carrots and saute until heated through. Season with salt and pepper, to taste.
• For the Herbed Jus:
• In a medium saucepan over medium heat, add the oil and 1 tablespoon butter. When the butter has melted, add the onions, garlic and shallots. Cook slowly to soften and bring out the flavors. Do not burn the garlic. Reduce the heat to low if the mixture starts to brown. Stir in the Sauvignon Blanc and allow it to reduce by half. Add the chicken stock and continue cooking at a simmer to reduce again by half. Taste the jus and if it seems a bit too tart and sharp, add more butter to smooth it out. (If you want to make the jus into a thicker sauce, you can add some heavy cream.) Adjust the seasoning with salt and pepper, to taste. When the jus is ready, add the 1/4 cup parsley and 1/2 cup chives right before serving to maintain the bright green color.
• Assembly:
• Put a large serving spoon of heated, seasoned potatoes and carrots in the center of each serving plate, letting some of them spill to the edges. Arrange 1 chicken thigh on top of the vegetables, skin side up. Ladle the jus around each plate and garnish the top of the chicken with a small sprinkling of the minced parsley and chives.

CHICKEN WITH A SWEET CORN AND POTATO SAUTé

Steps:

• Season the chicken breasts with salt, pepper, and the lemon juice. Let the chicken marinate while you get the rest of the meal going.
• Cut the potatoes into quarters lengthwise. Arrange the quarters cut side down on a cutting board. Thinly slice the potatoes across the width-you want thin, bite-size pieces.
• Heat a nonstick large skillet over medium-high heat with about 2 tablespoons of the EVOO, twice around the pan. Add the potatoes in an even layer across the hot skillet. Season the sliced spuds with salt, pepper, and the thyme. Resist the temptation to stir the potatoes for about 2 minutes, to let them brown up a little bit. Once the potatoes brown, stir in the onions and garlic and continue to cook, stirring occasionally, for 7 to 8 minutes, or until the potatoes are flirting with tenderness. If the potatoes are getting too dark, turn the heat back a little.
• While the onions and potatoes are cooking, preheat a second large skillet with the remaining 2 tablespoons of EVOO. Add the chicken breasts and cook for 5 to 6 minutes on each side.
• While the chicken is cooking, add the corn kernels to the potatoes and cook, stirring frequently, for 2 to 3 minutes. Add the chicken stock, turn the heat up to high, and bring the stock up to a bubble and continue to cook for 3 minutes, or until the liquids have reduced by half. Turn the heat off and add the butter, parsley, and lemon zest, stirring until the butter is completely melted.
• Serve the chicken whole or sliced on top of the sweet corn and potato sauté.

CHICKEN WITH A SWEET CORN & POTATO SAUTE

Steps:

• Season the chicken with salt, pepper and lemon juice. Cover with plastic wrap and put in fridge to marinate while you work on the saute.
• Using a food processor, finely chop the onion. Set aside. Chop the garlic and add to the onion.
• Cut the potatoes in half lengthwise. Then cut them in half lengthwise again. Keep them cut side down on your cutting board and thinly slice them, as uniformly as possible, across the width so you end up with bite size, thin pieces.
• Heat a large nonstick skillet over medium high heat and add 2 T of the olive oil. Add the potatoes in an even layer and season with salt, pepper and thyme. Let them sit for about two minutes while they brown up a little, then stir. Once they have browned, add the onions and garlic and cook about 8 minutes, until the potatoes are nearly tender.
• Once you get the onions and potatoes going, add 2 T of olive oil to another large skillet over medium heat and add the chicken. Cook it about 6-7 minutes per side.
• Once the taters are ready, add the corn to them and cook, stirring frequently, about 2 or 3 minutes. Then add the chicken stock and crank up the heat to high. Bring it to a bubble and let it go for about 3 or 4 minutes. The liquid should reduce by about half. Turn the heat off and add the butter, lemon zest and parsley. Stir until the butter melts.
• Serve the chicken on top of the saute. Yum! Makes great leftovers, too.
