Chicken Supremes In Parchment With Roasted Squash Sauce And Baby Bok Choy Recipes

ORANGE-GLAZED ROAST CHICKEN WITH STIR-FRIED BABY BOK CHOY

Steps:

• For the roast chicken: Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F.
• Finely grate the zest of 1 navel orange and reserve in a small bowl for the glaze. Thinly slice the navel and blood oranges into rounds, then scatter on the bottom of a Food Network 16-inch Hard-Anodized Nonstick Roaster. Top with the red onions, then pour in the chicken broth. Place the roasting rack on top.
• Add the butter, ginger, chile garlic sauce, 1/2 teaspoon salt and a few grinds of pepper to a small bowl and stir together to combine. Use your fingers to gently separate the skin from the breast and thigh meat of the chicken. Rub half of the butter mixture under the skin, then rub the remaining half all over the skin, making sure to coat both the breasts and thighs. Sprinkle the whole chicken generously with salt and pepper. Tie the legs together with butcher's twine. Place the chicken on top of the roasting rack breast-side up, then tuck the wings under the body (this will prevent them from burning). Roast until the skin starts to crisp and turn golden brown, about 30 minutes.
• For the orange glaze: Meanwhile, add the orange juice, honey, soy sauce, vinegar, ginger chile garlic sauce and reserved orange zest to the 1.5-quart saucepan from a Food Network 10-piece Hard-Anodized Space-Saving Cookware Set and bring to a simmer over medium-high heat. Reduce the heat to medium low and simmer until reduced slightly, 12 to 15 minutes. Slowly whisk in the cornstarch until smooth, then simmer until thickened to a glaze, 1 to 2 minutes more.
• After the chicken has roasted for 30 minutes, reduce the oven temperature to 425 degrees F. Use a pastry brush to brush the glaze onto the chicken skin and continue to roast, brushing on the glaze every 15 minutes or so and adding a splash of chicken broth to the bottom of the pan if it starts to get dry, until the skin is deep golden brown and the internal temperature registers 165 degrees F, 45 to 60 minutes more. Transfer the chicken to a cutting board to rest 10 minutes.
• For the stir-fried baby bok choy: Heat the sesame oil in the 10-inch skillet from a Food Network 10-piece Hard-Anodized Space-Saving Cookware Set over medium-high heat. Add the sugar snaps and cook, tossing occasionally, until crisp-tender, about 2 minutes. Add the bok choy, vinegar and 1/2 teaspoon salt and cook, stirring occasionally, until the vegetables are bright green and tender, about 2 minutes more. Taste and adjust the seasoning with more salt if needed.
• Transfer the oranges and red onions from the roasting pan to a serving platter. Carve the chicken and place on top. Serve with the stir-fried baby bok choy and any leftover glaze on the side.

CHICKEN SUPREME WITH TRUFFLE AND SAGE

Steps:

• For the chicken: Loosen the skin from the breast and wing by inserting fingers, gently pushing between the skin and meat. Insert the truffle slices under the loosened skin over the breast and wing. Cover with sage leaves and put the skin back. Season the chicken with salt and pepper.
• Preheat the oven at 350 degrees F.
• In a large skillet, on high heat, sear the chicken pieces skin-side down and finish cooking in the oven for 15 minutes.
• For the sauce: Reduce the chicken stock by 1/2 for 30 minutes. Add the Dijon mustard and lemon juice. Slowly add the butter, whisking constantly until emulsified. Season the sauce with salt and pepper, to taste.
• Serve the chicken with oven-roasted Jerusalem artichokes, recipe follows.
• Preheat the oven at 350 degrees F.
• Cut the artichokes in half.
• In a bowl, mix everything together. Put on a baking tray, flesh-side down and bake in the oven for 45 minutes or until caramelized and tender.

SAVORY BABY BOK CHOY

Steps:

• Melt butter in a large skillet over medium heat, and cook and stir the garlic and bay leaf until the garlic is lightly browned, about 5 minutes. Stir in the chicken stock and white wine, and increase heat to a full boil. Cook the sauce, stirring often, until reduced to 1 cup, about 15 minutes. Remove bay leaf. Lay the bok choy halves, cut sides down, into the sauce, and reduce heat to a simmer. Cook until tender, about 10 minutes. Serve with sauce spooned over bok choy.
