SAUTEED CHICKEN BREASTS WITH FRESH HERBS AND GINGER

Steps:

• Heat the oil in a medium skillet over medium-high heat until shimmering. Season both sides of the chicken breasts with salt and pepper, and place them skin side down in the pan. Cook, turning once, until firm to the touch, about 5 minutes per side. Transfer the chicken breasts to a plate.
• Add the lime juice to the skillet, and scrape up any browned bits that cling to the pan with a wooden spoon. Add the chicken broth and ginger, and bring to a boil. Off the heat, add the basil and mint to the pan and swirl the pan to combine.
• Divide the chicken between the 2 plates and spoon the herb sauce over the chicken. Serve.

CARROT-GINGER CHICKEN AND RICE

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F. Put the rice, cinnamon, 1/2 teaspoon salt, and pepper to taste in a saucepan and cover with water by 1 inch. Cover and bring to a boil over high heat, then uncover and cook until the rice is just tender, about 8 minutes. Drain; reserve the cinnamon stick.
• Pulse the ginger, coriander, 1 teaspoon salt, 1/2 teaspoon pepper and 1 tablespoon water in a mini food processor. Heat the vegetable oil in a large ovenproof skillet over medium-high heat. Add the onion and cook until golden, about 8 minutes. Add the ginger mixture and carrots and cook 2 minutes, adding a splash of water if the mixture sticks. Stir in 1/3 cup water, the chicken, herbs and yogurt and heat through. Season with salt.
• Top the chicken mixture with the rice and the reserved cinnamon stick; sprinkle with the almonds. Bake until the rice is cooked through and the almonds are lightly toasted, 8 to 12 minutes.

OVEN-ROASTED CHICKEN BREASTS WITH CARROTS AND RED POTATOES

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F (220 degrees C).
• Wash chicken breasts and pat dry. Separate the skin from the meat to create a pocket on each breast.
• Combine garlic, olive oil, salt, pepper, and rosemary leaves in a small bowl; stir to combine. Rub about 1/6 of olive oil mixture under the skin of each breast and rub another 1/6 on the outside of the skin. Sprinkle with additional salt and pepper if you wish.
• Arrange carrots, potatoes, and onion in the bottom of a roasting pan or casserole dish and season with salt and pepper. Place chicken, skin-side up, on top of the vegetables.
• Roast in the preheated oven for 30 minutes. Remove from the oven and cover with aluminum foil. Lower the temperature to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C) and cook until vegetables are tender and chicken is no longer pink at the bone and the juices run clear, 20 to 30 minutes. An instant-read thermometer inserted near the bone should read 165 degrees F (74 degrees C).

• Combine carrots, shallots, ginger, butter, and honey in a large Dutch oven or other heavy pot; season lightly with salt. Place chicken on top, nestling into vegetables so lid will sit tight. Cover; bake until an instant-read thermometer inserted into the thickest part of breast registers 155°F, about 2 hours. Uncover and let rest 30 minutes.
• Meanwhile, cook oil and sliced garlic in a small saucepan over medium until garlic is lightly browned, 6-8 minutes. Add red pepper flakes and let cool. Stir in lime juice; season dressing with salt.
• Increase oven temperature to 450°F. Place chicken on a rimmed baking sheet and roast until skin is browned and crisp, 10-14 minutes.
