CHICKEN CHASSEUR OR HUNTER'S CHICKEN
Chicken Chasseur or Hunter's Chicken is one of the most popular French chicken recipes. It contains simple ingredients like bone-in chicken, mushrooms, tomatoes, wine, and herbs. It's very easy to make and looks as amazing as it tastes. Serve it to your guests or family, tell them that it's Chicken Chasseur and you'll impress everybody. But once they've actually sunken their teeth into it, I guarantee they'll be speechless (that happened in my house).

Steps:
- Heat up your oven to 375 F. In order to make Chicken Chasseur with a crispy skin, heat up clarified butter (or a combination of butter with cooking oil) in a cast iron skillet on medium heat. Season the chicken with salt and pepper and once your pan is hot, add chicken (skin side down) and cook undisturbed for 6-7 minutes, until the skin is nicely browned.
- Turned the chicken over and cook for another 4-5 minutes. Transfer the chicken onto a baking sheet and place in the oven for about 15-20 minutes, until the chicken is cooked through and the internal temperature shows 165F.
- Once you've moved your chicken to the oven, discard all but 2 tablespoons of fat from the skillet. Add sliced mushrooms, season with salt and pepper, and cook for about 5 minutes. Then add chopped shallots and let them sweat for another few minutes.
- If using, add cognac and either flambe it or let it almost entirely cook-off. Add wine and deglaze the pan. Cook until about 1 tablespoon of liquid is left.
- Add tomatoes or tomato paste, chicken stock, and let cook for about 10-15 minutes.
- If your sauce is too liquidy, combine 1-2 tablespoons of either Wondra flour or all-purpose flour with a 1/2 cup of water, mix well (until smooth) and add to the sauce to thicken it up. Cook for another 2 minutes.
- Adjust seasoning, add salt and pepper as needed. Once the sauce has the right consistency, turn it off and add 2 tablespoons of cold butter and let it melt into the sauce (Tip: once you've added butter, then you cannot reduce the sauce more as the butter would break);
- Chop tarragon and parsley. Remove the chicken from the oven. Then for serving, you can either put the chicken back into the pan and sprinkle everything with herbs and serve it family style, or you plate the chicken and drench in your sauce, then sprinkle with herbs. Serve with mashed potatoes or egg noodles. Enjoy!

It looks impressive, but this mouthwatering chicken and mushroom sauce comes together in no time. I think its flavor rivals that of many full-fat entrees found in fancy restaurants. -Jennifer Pemberton, Muncie, Indiana

Steps:
- Heat the oil in a large non-stick frying pan. Fry the thighs for 8-10 mins, skin side only, until golden brown, then transfer to a casserole dish. Fry the drumsticks for about 5 mins each side and add them to the thighs.
- Pour the stock over the chicken legs in the casserole. There should be enough stock to just cover the chicken, if not add a little water. Bring stock to the boil and cover, leaving lid slightly ajar. Cook at just below simmering point for 30-35 mins until chicken is cooked.
- While chicken is simmering, drain oil from the pan. Heat the butter in pan and add onion. Sweat onion for 5 mins until soft, but not coloured. Turn up the heat, add the mushrooms, then fry for 3 mins until they soften and start to smell wonderful. Pour over the white wine, raise the heat to maximum and boil rapidly for 6-8 mins until reduced by two-thirds. Turn off the heat and leave until chicken has cooked.
- Once chicken legs are cooked, strain stock into pan with the onion, mushrooms and white wine, bring back to the boil and reduce again by two-thirds until it is thick and syrupy. Pour in double cream, bring it to the boil, season if you want, then pour it over chicken. Heat chicken through in the sauce for 2-3 mins then turn off the heat and leave for a few mins before serving. This is such an aromatic and beautiful looking dish you should serve it straight from the casserole with the lid on.

CHICKEN WITH MUSHROOMS AND WINE
The boneless, skinless chicken breast is as simple to prepare as a burger, nearly as ubiquitous and generally seen as both classier and "healthier." But in the kitchen, it has two major shortcomings. First, its intrinsic flavor is minimal, more akin to pasta than to even an egg. (An egg is exciting by comparison.) Second, preparing a burger isn't that simple: unless you're looking for well done, you have to get the timing just right. In preparing chicken breasts, the cooking time should be just long enough for all but the last traces of pink to vanish - and no longer. The breast can be done in as little as six minutes, for a thinnish one subjected to high heat, or it might take as long as 10 minutes or even a bit more - but never 20, unless you are cooking the thing on a radiator. Overcooking is easy, and the results are predictably undesirable. Here's a simply wonderful way to prepare the humble breast with just a little wine (practically any kind will do) and mushrooms.

Steps:
- Season chicken breasts with salt and pepper. Put a large skillet over medium-high heat for 2 or 3 minutes.
- Add extra-virgin olive oil and 2 tablespoons butter to the skillet and swirl it around.
- Put flour on a plate. When the butter foam subsides, dredge the chicken in flour, shaking to remove the excess.
- Add the breasts to the skillet and cook so there is a constant sizzle but no burning.
- Cook, turning once, until the chicken is browned on both sides and nearly cooked through, about 5 minutes per side.
- Transfer the chicken to a plate and cover loosely with foil to keep warm.
- Add mushrooms to the skillet and cook, undisturbed, until the liquid from the mushrooms evaporates completely.
- With the heat still on medium-high, add wine to the skillet and let it bubble, stirring, until it is reduced by half, about 2 minutes.
- Add the remaining tablespoon of butter and cook until the sauce is thickened; return the chicken breasts to the skillet, turn them in the sauce. Season to taste with salt and pepper and serve.
- Garnish with chopped parsley.
