CHICKEN IN CREAM SAUCE

Steps:

• Combine chicken (breast-side up), chicken broth, water, Mexican crema, tomatoes, red peppers, jalapeno peppers, onion, garlic, oregano, bay leaf, cayenne pepper, salt, and pepper in a large stockpot, ensuring all ingredients are submerged in the liquid. Bring to a boil over medium heat. Reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer for 1 hour.
• Turn chicken over using a pair of tongs. Cover stockpot and simmer until chicken is cooked through, about 30 minutes. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the thickest part of the thigh, near the bone should read 165 degrees F (74 degrees C). Remove chicken from mixture and set aside.
• Increase heat to high and bring mixture to a boil, skimming off any fat that rises to the surface, 5 to 10 minutes.
• Cut chicken into serving-size pieces and return to stockpot; stir in chopped cilantro and cook until chicken is warmed through, about 5 minutes.

CHICKEN PARMESAN IN CREAM SAUCE

Steps:

• Pat chicken tenders dry with paper towels and season lightly with salt and pepper.
• Place flour on a shallow plate. Place beaten eggs into a shallow bowl. Combine grated Parmesan cheese, Italian-seasoned panko crumbs, and 1 teaspoon smoked paprika, and place on a second shallow plate.
• Cover a dinner plate or platter with parchment paper.
• Dip each lightly seasoned chicken breast tender in flour, shaking off the excess. Next, dip in beaten egg, and hold the tender over the eggs to allow excess to drip back into the bowl. Place each tender on the panko mixture. With dry fingers, scoop panko mix over the tender, patting the crumbs in. Place on the parchment-covered plate.
• Repeat with remaining chicken tenders, until all tenders are breaded with flour, egg, and panko mix.
• Melt 2 tablespoons butter and 2 tablespoons olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat until butter is bubbling. Add tenders, 1 at a time, being careful not to crowd the skillet. You may need to cook chicken in 2 batches. Cook until breading is browned and chicken is no longer pink in the center and the juices run clear, 3 to 4 minutes per side, being careful not to burn the breading.
• Turn tenders when the crust is nicely browned and continue cooking until an instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 165 degrees F (74 degrees C). Adjust heat down a notch or two, if the crust is getting too brown, and add a bit more oil or butter, if the skillet looks dry. Remove cooked chicken to a cooling rack.
• Add garlic to the skillet, and stir until garlic is fragrant, 30 to 45 seconds. Deglaze skillet with white wine, stirring up all the browned bits from the bottom of the skillet. Season Italian herb seasoning blend and red pepper flakes.
• Stir in cream and heat over medium high. Bring sauce to a boil, stirring frequently, and adjust flavor with salt and pepper, if needed. Allow sauce to bubble until desired consistency is achieved, 3 to 4 minutes.
• Return cooked chicken tenders to the skillet and warm in the sauce, about 1 minute.
• Garnish with fresh parsley.

HERBED OVEN-FRIED CHICKEN

Steps:

• In a shallow dish, mix together the buttermilk, garlic, 1/2 teaspoon of the salt and the oil.
• Place the chicken pieces in the buttermilk mixture and coat them thoroughly.
• Marinate the chicken in the buttermilk mixture overnight in the refrigerator.
• Preheat the toaster oven to 425°F.
• In a food processor, mix the oats, red pepper flakes, the remaining 1 teaspoon salt, Parmesan, and basil.
• Pulse until the oats are partially powdered.
• Alternatively, mix the ingredients together in a bowl with a wooden spoon.
• Place the oat mixture on a plate.
• Shake any excess buttermilk off the chicken and dredge to coat each piece thoroughly.
• For easy clean-up, cover the toaster oven baking tray with aluminum foil and lightly spray it with oil. (Check your manufacturer's instructions, however, for any cautions against the use of aluminum foil in your toaster oven.).
• Place the chicken pieces on the tray so that they are not touching one another.
• Spray the chicken pieces lightly with oil and bake for about 10 to 15 minutes, depending upon the thickness of the meat, until the crust is golden brown and crispy.
• Remove the chicken from the toaster oven and serve hot or refrigerate and serve cold over a salad.

15-MINUTE FRIED HERBED CHICKEN

Steps:

• In a blender or the container of a food processor, combine garlic, onion, herbs and tahini. As you purée the mixture, slowly add just enough olive oil through the feed tube to make a thick, smooth paste; do not let it get too thin.
• Put flour in a shallow bowl. Place chicken in another bowl. Rub puréed mixture over chicken, then dredge each piece in flour. Gently shake off any excess flour, coat again with paste and dredge once more in flour.
• Heat 1/4 inch olive oil in a skillet; when it is hot, fry chicken for about 4 minutes each side, until well browned and cooked through; it will take longer if you use chicken with the bone in. Garnish with parsley and serve hot or warm, with lemon wedges.
