Chicken Cutlets with Grape-Shallot Sauce

How To Prepare
1
Place flour in a shallow dish. Sprinkle chicken with pepper. Dredge the chicken in the flour (reserve excess flour). Heat 3 teaspoons oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Cook the chicken until golden on the first side, 2 to 4 minutes. Reduce heat to medium, turn the chicken and cook until the other side is golden, 2 to 4 minutes more. Transfer to a plate.
2
Add the remaining 2 teaspoons oil to the pan and heat over medium heat. Add shallots and cook, stirring, until just starting to brown, 2 to 3 minutes. Add grapes and cook, stirring occasionally, until just starting to brown, 2 to 3 minutes. Sprinkle with 5 teaspoons of the reserved flour; stir to coat. Add wine and broth; bring to a boil, stirring constantly. Reduce heat to a simmer and cook, stirring occasionally and scraping up any browned bits, until the sauce is reduced and thickened, about 8 minutes. Stir in parsley.
3
Return the chicken to the pan, turning to coat with sauce, and cook until heated through, about 2 minutes. Serve with the sauce.

Chicken Breasts with Mushroom Sauce

How To Prepare
Season chicken with pepper on both sides.
Heat oil in a medium skillet over medium heat. Add the chicken and cook, turning once or twice and adjusting the heat to prevent burning, until brown and an instant-read thermometer inserted into the thickest part registers 165°F, 12 to 16 minutes. Transfer to a plate and tent with foil to keep warm.

Add shallot to the pan and cook, stirring, until fragrant, about 30 seconds. Add mushrooms; cook, stirring occasionally, until tender, about 2 minutes. Pour in vermouth (or wine); simmer until almost evaporated, scraping up any browned bits, about 1 minute.

Pour in broth and cook until reduced by half, 1 to 2 minutes. Stir in chives (or scallions); return to a simmer. Return the chicken to the pan, turn to coat with sauce and cook until heated through, about 1 minute.
TIPS & NOTES
Tip: It’s difficult to find an individual chicken breast small enough for one portion. Removing the thin strip of meat from the underside of a 5-ounce breast—the “tender”—removes about 1 ounce of meat and yields a perfect 4-ounce portion. Wrap and freeze the tenders and when you have gathered enough, use them in a stir-fry or for oven-baked chicken fingers.

Mexican Chicken and Rice

How To Prepare
In a medium sauce pan, cook rice in oil over medium heat for about 3 minutes. Pour in chicken broth, and bring to a boil. Stir in onion, green pepper, jalapeno, and diced tomato.

Mediterranean Shrimp Salad

How To Prepare
In a medium saucepan over medium heat, bring the water, lemon slices, halved garlic, and peppercorns just to a simmer, covered. Add the shrimp and cook, uncovered, for 2 to 3 minutes, or just until the shrimp turns pink. Drain, discarding the lemon, garlic, and peppercorns. Spread the shrimp in a single layer on a large plate. Refrigerate for 10 to 15 minutes, or until cooled.
Meanwhile, put the potato flour in a small saucepan. Pour in the broth, whisking to dissolve. Cook over medium-high heat for about 2 minutes, or until boiling and thickened, whisking constantly. Pour into a small bowl. Let cool at room temperature for 5 to 10 minutes.
Whisk the lemon juice, vinegar, oregano, and minced garlic into the broth mixture. Set aside.
Arrange the remaining ingredients on plates. Top each salad with the shrimp. Drizzle with the dressing.

In most recipes, the sizes of shrimp are interchangeable. That is fortunate, because shrimp size can be confusing. What is “small” in one part of the country may be called “medium” in another area. So it is more accurate to refer to the number of shrimp per pound. If, for instance, a recipe calls for 16 to 20 count, that means there should be 16 to 20 shrimp per pound. If you use shrimp that are a bit larger than called for, add a small amount to the cooking time; conversely, if you use shrimp that are somewhat smaller than called for, don’t cook them quite as long as the recipe says. Watch closely, and always cook shrimp until it is just slightly pink; overcooking will cause it to be tough.

Marmalade Chicken

How To Prepare
Whisk broth, vinegar, marmalade, mustard and potato flour in a medium bowl.

Add the remaining 2 teaspoons oil and shallots to the pan and cook, stirring often, until beginning to brown, about 30 seconds. Whisk the broth mixture and add it to the pan. Bring to a simmer, scraping up any browned bits. Reduce heat to maintain a simmer; cook until the sauce is slightly reduced and thickened, 30 seconds to 2 minutes. Add the chicken; return to a simmer. Cook, turning once, until the chicken is heated through, about 1 minute. Remove from the heat and stir in orange zest.
