Thai Basil Chicken Soup with Asparagus and Mushroom Filled Crepes and Thai Basil Butter on Toasted Baguette image

Provided by Roger Mooking

Time 2h2m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 42

1 whole chicken, (about 2 1/2 to 3 pounds)
12 ounces shiitake mushrooms, stems and caps separated, reserving caps for crepes
1 celery stalk, cut in half
1 medium carrot, peeled and cut in half
1 medium onion, skin removed and cut in half
1 lemongrass stalk, bruised
1 bunch fresh Thai basil, stems and leaves
1 tablespoon smashed fresh ginger
1 red Thai chile split, seeded if no heat is desired
Peel of 1 lime
2 bay leaves
1 tablespoon black peppercorns
Thai Basil Chicken Broth, recipe above
Red finger chile, optional
1 1/2 tablespoons sugar
1/4 cup fish sauce
Juice of 2 limes
Kosher salt
Leg meat, reserved from Thai Basil Chicken Broth
4 plum tomatoes, quartered, seeded and cut into 1/2-inch triangles
1/2 cucumber, peeled, seeded and sliced
1 bunch green onion, chopped
1 teaspoon sesame oil
1 lime, cut into quarters
Fresh Thai basil, stems and leaves
Asparagus and Mushroom Filled Crepes, recipe follows
Thai Basil Butter on Toasted Baguette, recipe follows
Egg Crepes
1/4 cup butter
1 tablespoon finely minced fresh ginger
6 eggs
1/3 cup 2-percent milk
1 teaspoon sesame oil
Salt
Filling for Crepes
3 tablespoons vegetable oil
Shiitake mushroom caps, julienned (from Thai Basil Chicken Broth recipe)
1 bunch asparagus, thick ends removed, spears blanched in salted water
Salt and freshly ground black pepper
1 bunch fresh Thai basil, washed, rinsed and leaves picked
1 cup butter, melted on low heat and cooled
1/2 baguette, toasted and cut into 4 pieces

Steps:

  • Place the chicken, mushrooms, celery, carrot, onion, lemongrass, Thai basil, ginger, Thai chile, lime peel, bay leaves, and peppercorns in a large pot. Cover with cold water, approximately 2 to 2 1/2 quarts. Bring the mixture to a boil, and then reduce the heat to a simmer, uncovered. Skim the top, removing the impurities throughout the cooking process. Cook for 1 hour at a low simmer. Remove the chicken from the pot. Remove the leg meat, pull into pieces and reserve for soup garnishes. Remove the remaining chicken and reserve for personal use. Strain the stock into a clean pot.
  • For the Thai basil chicken soup garnishes: Bring the stock to a boil. Add the chile, if using, sugar, fish sauce, and lime juice. Season the mixture with salt. Add the pulled chicken meat, tomato, and cucumber. Serve the soup, piping hot, garnish with green onion, sesame oil, lime, and Thai basil.
  • For the egg crepes: Place 2 tablespoons of melted butter in a bowl. Add the ginger, eggs, milk, sesame oil, and salt, and whisk well. Heat a nonstick saute pan over medium heat. Dab a paper towel in the remaining melted butter and coat the pan. Ladle a thin layer of crepe batter in the pan, coating the bottom evenly. Once the batter begins to bubble in the middle, flip the crepe and cook for 3 to 5 seconds on the other side. Remove the crepe from the pan and lay on a dry kitchen towel. Repeat the process with the remaining crepe batter.
  • For the crepe filling and assembly: Heat the oil in a saute pan over medium heat. Saute the shiitake mushroom caps over the medium heat until tender, about 5 minutes. Season the mushrooms with salt, and pepper, set aside.
  • Place one crepe on the cutting board. Place 2 spears of asparagus lengthwise, on one end of the crepe. Place a single layer of shiitake mushrooms over the asparagus. Roll the crepe beginning at one end. Place another crepe on the cutting board and roll the finished crepe inside. Cut the crepe on a diagonal into 3 pieces.
  • Place the Thai basil in a blender and pour the melted butter over. Pulse quickly until just incorporated, ensuring not to bruise the Thai basil. Transfer the mixture to a bowl, place in the freezer for 5 minutes. Remove the butter from the freezer and whisk the mixture until well incorporated, return the Thai basil butter to the freezer. Once the butter has solidified, approximately 5 minutes, whisk again.
  • Transfer the butter to a container and place in the refrigerator or freezer. Spread the Thai basil butter over the toasted baguette pieces.

BASIL LEMON BUTTER CREAM SAUCE



Basil Lemon Butter Cream Sauce image

This is a sauce recipe that was a frequent complement to chicken and fish during my study abroad residence experience with a french family in the Loire Valley region. Cream sauces are very popular paired with white and rosé wines in this geography, and this goes well over a thinly sliced breast of chicken, or a flaky whitefish. Although the sauce itself is somewhat fattening, if used conservatively it's actually a light and refreshing compliment to poultry and fish in the summer. If you absolutely feel the need to tone down the fat, be careful as you don't want the sauce to become too thin as it won't coat as nicely. Enjoy!

GRILLED CEDAR PLANK SALMON WITH GARLIC BASIL BUTTER



Grilled Cedar Plank Salmon With Garlic Basil Butter image

This is by far my FAVORITE way of preparing salmon. I first tried it at McGraths Fish House, then duplicated it at home. You can normally find a cedar plank at your local grocery store in the seafood department.

Provided by Mamafox61

Categories     Very Low Carbs

Time 40m

Yield 6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 6

1 cedar plank
1 1/2-2 lbs salmon
1/4 cup fresh basil
1/2 cup butter, softened
6 -7 garlic cloves, minced
salt & pepper

Steps:

  • Soak your cedar plank in water for 20 minutes, flipping over halfway through soak time.
  • While the plank is soaking, mix together butter, basil and minced garlic cloves, spread on salmon.
  • Salt and pepper to taste.
  • Heat your grill to low, or the right setting for your grill for fish.
  • Take your cedar plank out of the water and place the salmon on top of the plank. Place it on the grill and cook for 20-40 minutes depending on how thick your salmon is.Grill with the lid closed.
  • During the cooking time, if the plank catches on fire, spray it with water.
  • Salmon is done cooking, when it flakes easily with a fork.
  • *Note: Whenever I make this it normally takes around 30-45 minutes to cook on the grill. I constantly check it to make sure the plank doesn't burn & the salmon doesn't over cook.
  • Make sure you have water on hand to spray the cedar plank with, so it doesn't catch on fire.
