HAZELNUT LIQUEUR - FRANGELICO

Steps:

• In a glass bottle or jar, steep the chopped hazelnuts in the vodka for about 2 weeks in a cool, dark place, gently shaking the bottle every day.
• Gently pour the jar's contents through a regular strainer or sieve, pressing hard on the nuts to release all of their flavor.
• Follow this by two strainings through slightly dampened cheesecloth.
• For true clarity and professional looking results, pour the strained mixture through a large clean coffee filter placed inside a funnel or clean coffee cone; loosely cover with plastic wrap since the process may take several hours.
• In a very small saucepan, combine the sugar and water.
• Bring to a boil over moderately high heat.
• Simmer, uncovered, 5 minutes.
• Let cool to room temperature.
• Stir in the vanilla.
• Funnel the strained hazelnut mixture into a clean, sterilized, glass bottle and then funnel in the sugar syrup.
• Cover tightly; shake to blend.
• Let mature, at room temperature or slightly cooler, for at least three weeks.

CHICKEN FRANGELICO

Steps:

• Cut the chicken in ½ lengthwise & pound to ¼ inch thick. Rince the chicken under cold water them pat dry with paper towel. On a plate combine the flour and Italian seasoning and stir to combine thoroughly. Season the chicken with salt and pepper then dredge in flour mixture.
• In a large skillet over medium heat, melt 1 tablespoons butter and 1 tablespoons oil. Working in batches, sear the chicken until golden brown, about 3 min, per side. Remove and set aside.
• Drain the fat from the skillet and return the skillet to the heat. Add 2 tablespoons butter when it is melted, add in the shallots. Cook, stirring, until wilted, about 3 minute Add the mushrooms. Cook, stirring frequently, until the mushrooms are golden brown around the edges and the liquid evaporates, about 4 to 6 minute.
• Add in the Frangelico and bring to a boil, scraping the bottom of the skillet and reduce by half. Add in the stock and worcestershire sauce and bring to a boil. Reduce until the sauce has slightly thickened.
• Lower heat to medium, return the chicken and continue to cook until the chicken has cooked through and the sauce has thickened, about 5 to 6 minute Swirl in 2 tablespoons of butter and season with salt and pepper. Garnish with the parsley, plate and serve immediately.
• Serve with pasta of your choice.
