Sauteed Kidney In Mustard Cream Sauce Recipes

SAUTEED VEAL KIDNEYS WITH ROASTED SHALLOTS, MADEIRA AND CREAM

Steps:

• Heat oven to 400 degrees. Place shallots in a roasting pan or casserole dish. Rub with vegetable oil, cover and roast until soft, about 20 minutes. Meanwhile, split kidneys lengthwise and remove nerve and core from each side. Slice clean kidneys into silver-dollar-size pieces. Set aside.
• Squeeze roasted shallots out of their skins. Reserve 4 whole shallots for garnish and chop remainder. Place a large skillet over medium-low heat and melt 1 tablespoon butter. Add chopped shallots and saute until lightly browned, 2 to 3 minutes. Add Madeira and saute until reduced to a glaze. Stir in cream and simmer until reduced by half. Remove from heat.
• Place a clean skillet over medium heat, and add remaining butter and the olive oil. When butter melts, add kidneys and saute until browned on all sides. Remove kidneys from pan, pour out any liquid in pan, and return kidneys to pan. Add cream sauce and simmer until kidneys are cooked to medium (pink inside) and glazed with sauce. Add parsley and chives. To serve, place equal portions on four plates, and garnish each with a whole roasted shallot. If desired, serve with sauteed spinach.

SAUTEED KIDNEYS

Steps:

• Remove the outside membrane from the kidneys.
• Rinse and pat dry; set to the side.
• Melt the butter and oil together in a skillet.
• Brown the kidneys quickly, and remove to a warm platter.
• Add the onion and mushrooms to the pan and cook until the onion is soft and translucent, stirring frequently.
• Add the wine and cook for another minute or so; return the kidneys to the pan and add salt to taste.
• Heat through.
• Serve on toast points.

SAUTEED CHICKEN IN MUSTARD-CREAM SAUCE

Steps:

• Sprinkle chicken breasts with salt and pepper. In large skillet, heat oil over medium-high heat. Add chicken and saute until cooked through, about 10 to 12 minutes, turning once. Transfer chicken to a plate and keep warm.
• Pour wine into hot skillet. Cook, stirring, until wine has reduced by half, about 1 minute. Whisk in cream, mustard, and tarragon. Cook, whisking all the while, until the sauce has thickened, about 2 minutes.
• Pour any accumulated chicken juices into sauce. Right before serving, drizzle cream sauce over chicken. (I usually just add the chicken back into the pan to coat it completely.).
