GARLIC-ROASTED CHICKEN BREASTS
Thick chicken breasts can be hard to get just right; often you're left with a too-dry, too-bland dinner. But this high-heat roasting method results in crisp, crackly skin that gives way to moist flesh, perfumed throughout by a pocket filled with herbed garlic paste.

GARLIC-GINGER CHICKEN BREASTS WITH CILANTRO AND MINT
This chicken, which is the brainchild of my aunt Sonia, is legendary among our cousins. Until recently, though, no one knew what, exactly, went into it. Whenever my aunt would make it on a family vacation, she'd disappear for a half-hour and reemerge with a Ziploc bag filled with the marinade and the chicken breasts. No one (not even her only daughter, Isha) was allowed to know the contents. The marinating chicken would smell so good, I'd legitimately have thoughts about eating it raw, carpaccio-style (which is disgusting, I know!). Well, folks, I am here to tell you that, after much negotiation, I have finally pried that chicken recipe out of Sonia's hands. Both the marinade and the cooking method (low and sort of slow) feel ingenious to me, and the payoff is huge: Charred, spicy, slightly funky, juicy chicken that is equally wonderful by itself or rolled up in a roti, taco-style, and served with various salads and chutneys.

Steps:
- Make the marinade: Add the garlic, ginger, mint, cilantro, lemon juice and 3 tablespoons oil to a large resealable bag. Seal the bag and massage to combine the ingredients into a paste. Add the coriander, turmeric, amchur (if using), red chile powder and salt, and seal the bag. Shake or massage to combine.
- Place the chicken breasts in the marinade and seal the bag tightly. Use your hands to gently massage the marinade onto the chicken breasts until each breast is coated. Refrigerate at least 2 hours and up to overnight.
- Warm a large lidded skillet over medium-high heat. Once the pan is quite hot, add the oil, swirling the pan to coat the entire surface. Reduce the heat to medium, remove the chicken from the marinade and shake gently to remove any excess marinade. Add it to the pan. Working in batches if necessary, cook the breasts, undisturbed, until lightly golden underneath, 1 to 2 minutes, then flip them and cook until lightly golden on the second side, 1 to 2 minutes.
- Reduce the heat to low, cover, and cook the chicken for 10 minutes (no peeking!). Turn off the heat (if you have an electric stove, take the pan off the heat) and let the chicken sit, covered, for 10 to 15 minutes, depending on the thickness of the breasts. Don't lift the lid, or you'll release the hot steam that finishes cooking the chicken.
- Check to make sure the breasts are cooked through: There shouldn't be any pink in the middle. If you have a meat thermometer, the chicken should register at least 165 degrees. Place the chicken on a cutting board, and slice each breast into strips. Garnish with mint and cilantro.

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Slice tops from garlic heads, reserving the bottoms; arrange tops, cut sides down, in the center of an 11-by-17-inch roasting pan. Place 1 sprig of oregano over each garlic top, and arrange chicken breasts over garlic.
- Place reserved garlic bottoms, cut sides up, next to chicken in the pan. Drizzle chicken and garlic bottoms with the olive oil. Season chicken with salt and pepper; place remaining 4 sprigs of oregano on top.
- Roast chicken for 30 minutes; turn garlic bottoms cut sides down, and rotate the pan. Continue roasting chicken until skin is browned, juices run clear, and an instant-read thermometer inserted into thickest part of the meat registers 165 degrees, about 30 minutes more.
- Pour pan juices into a measuring cup; skim fat from the top. Serve juices with chicken and roasted garlic.
CHICKEN BREASTS WITH ROSEMARY AND CHANTERELLES AND ROASTED GARLIC POTATOES
Steps:
- To make potatoes: Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Place a roasting pan in the oven for 5 minutes to preheat. In a mixing bowl, combine the potatoes, garlic, and olive oil and stir to coat the potatoes and garlic. Season generously with salt and pepper. Transfer to the roasting pan and roast, stirring occasionally until potatoes are soft when pierced with the tip of a knife and the garlic cloves are very soft and sweet in flavor, about 40 minutes. Remove from oven and keep warm.
- To make mushrooms: In a 12-inch saute pan, heat the butter over medium heat. Add the shallots and cook for about 3 minutes, until softened. Add the garlic and cook about 1 minute longer. Add the mushrooms and thyme. Cover the pan and cook for 7 to 10 minutes, until the mushrooms are tender and have released their juices. If the mushrooms seem dry during cooking, add about 1/4 cup of the chicken stock.
- When the mushrooms are soft, add the rest of the chicken stock, raise the heat to high, and cook until the liquid is reduced by half, about 6 minutes. There will be quite a bit of liquid in the mushrooms. Remove them from the heat, cover, and set side to keep warm.
- To make the chicken:
- Heat the oil and 1 tablespoon of the butter in a 12-inch saute pan over medium-high heat. Season the chicken breasts with salt and pepper. Place the chicken breasts in the pan, skin side down. Cook for about 6 minutes, until golden brown. Turn and cook until the juices run clear when pierced with the tip of a knife, about 6 more minutes. Add the rosemary and cook, basting frequently, for 6 to 8 minutes longer, until the chicken is cooked through and nicely browned. Transfer to a serving platter and set it aside, covered, to keep warm.
- Pour off any oil in the pan and add the wine and Cognac. Raise the heat to high and deglaze the pan by scraping up any browned bits with a wooden spoon. Add the stock and cook until the sauce is reduced nearly by half or thickened and richly flavored, about 4 minutes. Remove the pan from the heat and swirl in the remaining 3 tablespoons of butter. Season with the chives, salt, and pepper. Spoon the sauce over the chicken and serve, passing the mushrooms and potatoes on the side.
GRILLED GARLIC, ROSEMARY AND LEMON DIJON CHICKEN BREASTS

BREADED LEMON-GARLIC CHICKEN BREASTS
This is one of my family's favorite chicken recipes (I have many posted on this site!) --- to save time you may coat with the breading mixture, roll up the breasts and refrigerate until ready to bake --- the subtle lemon flavor gives the chicken it a really nice kick --- there is no need to pound the breasts thin just roll them up as tightly as you can they will stay together during and after baking, also I have even topped them with sliced mozzarella cheese :)

- In a bowl, combine the dry breadcrumbs, parmesan cheese, garlic powder, parsley, salt and pepper.
- In another bowl combine the melted butter/garlic mixture and lemon juice; whisk well to combine (if you run out of butter when dipping the breasts, which has happened to me many times, just melt about another 1/4 cup butter and add in about 1 tablespoon more of lemon juice in the microwave.
- Dip chicken in butter mixture, then roll in crumbs (patting down the crumbs into the chicken breasts).
- Roll-up chicken jelly-roll style; place seam side down in a greased baking dish drizzle with any remaining butter mixture; sprinkle with paprika if desired.
- Place a slice of cheese on top the last 10 minutes of baking if desired.
- Bake uncovered for 35-45 minutes or until the chicken is cooked though (baking time will vary depending on how thin you pounded the chicken).

CHICKEN BREASTS WITH MISO-GARLIC SAUCE
Boneless, skinless chicken breasts are known for becoming dry, but brining them before cooking helps retain moisture. The chicken is soaked in cold, salted water to which a small amount of whey or yogurt is added. (The lactic acid and phosphates in the dairy help with moisture retention.) However, the star of this recipe isn't the chicken: It's the sauce, made from miso, plenty of garlic and a good amount of lemon and leftover pan juices. Just take care when salting it: Miso is salty by nature, and lemon juice tends to heighten its brininess. Round out the meal by pairing it with white rice, or a vibrant salad.

Steps:
- Heat oven to 500 degrees. Line a 9-by-13-inch high-heat baking dish with aluminum foil. In a large bowl, stir 1 tablespoon salt and the yogurt into 4 cups cold water. (The brine helps the chicken retain its moisture, for juicier breasts.) Add the chicken and let sit for 15 minutes.
- In a small bowl, mix together butter, onion powder, garlic and chipotle powders, and black pepper until they form a paste.
- After 15 minutes, drain the breasts, discarding liquid. Pat dry, transfer to the baking dish, and spread the paste all over the chicken.
- Roast until the top is golden brown and the chicken reaches an internal temperature of 165 degrees, about 30 minutes. If chicken is darkening too quickly, tent loosely with foil. Let the chicken cool, covered, for 5 minutes. Reserve the pan juices.
- About 10 minutes before the chicken is done, prepare the miso-garlic sauce: In a medium saucepan, melt the butter over medium-low heat. Remove from the heat and stir in garlic, lemon zest, black pepper and miso. Return to the heat and add the lemon juice and 2 tablespoons water, then mix until a velvety sauce forms. Remove from heat and stir in the reserved pan juices from the chicken. Taste and season with salt as needed.
- To serve, either slice the chicken breasts across the grain or keep them whole. Pour the sauce over the chicken and garnish with the minced scallions or chives. Serve immediately.
