Pan Cooked Chicken with Asparagus, Pancetta and Olives image

Provided by Jamie Oliver

Categories     main-dish

Time 25m

Yield 1 serving

Number Of Ingredients 10

1 chicken breast supreme, skin removed
Sea salt and freshly ground black pepper
Olive oil
3 slices smoked pancetta
8 medium-sized spears asparagus, woody ends trimmed off
8 cherry tomatoes, halved
5 kalamata olives, stones left in
Small knob unsalted butter
Handful basil leaves
Splash white wine

Steps:

  • Slice the chicken into 3 finger size pieces, but ensure that you keep it as 1 piece (fan it out). This will help to cook the chicken much faster. Season with salt and pepper.
  • Heat a medium-sized frying pan, add some oil, and brown the chicken on all sides. Place the pancetta on top of the chicken and the asparagus around it, let it char a little, then put the pancetta on the bottom of the pan to crisp up and turn the chicken over. Turn up the heat, throw in the tomatoes, olives, basil, and a good knob of butter. Take off the heat once the butter has melted and add a splash of wine to make a sauce, squishing in a few of the tomatoes to finish it off.

Time 1h

Number Of Ingredients 10

4 bone-in, skin-on chicken-breast halves, split and patted dry
Kosher salt and freshly ground pepper
2 tablespoons unsalted butter
2 leeks, trimmed, thinly sliced, and well rinsed (4 cups)
1/3 cup dry white wine, such as Sauvignon Blanc
1 1/2 cups low-sodium chicken broth
1 pound very small red potatoes (each 1 inch diameter), halved
1 pound asparagus, trimmed and cut into 2-inch pieces
1/4 cup heavy cream
Dill sprigs, for serving

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 450 degrees. Season chicken with salt and pepper. In a large, straight-sided ovenproof skillet, melt butter over medium-high heat. Add chicken to skillet, skin-side down; cook until golden brown, about 5 minutes a side. Transfer to a plate.
  • Reduce heat to medium. Add leeks to skillet; cook, stirring frequently, until softened, about 4 minutes. Stir in wine; cook until almost evaporated, 1 minute. Add broth and potatoes; season with salt and pepper. Bring to a boil, then add chicken, skin-side up; transfer to oven. Roast 15 minutes, then remove and add asparagus; season with salt. Cover and return to oven; roast until potatoes are tender and chicken is cooked through, about 10 minutes more. Transfer chicken to a plate. Stir cream into skillet, then return chicken. Serve, with dill.

Time 1h10m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 29

Four 8-ounce boneless, skinless chicken breast halves
1/2 cup extra-virgin olive oil, plus more for searing
2 tablespoons finely minced fresh flat-leaf parsley
2 tablespoons minced shallots (about 1 small)
1 clove garlic, finely minced
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
1 cup cherry tomatoes, halved
2 teaspoons finely sliced fresh basil, optional
1 small clove garlic, minced
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
Extra-virgin olive oil, if needed
1/2 cup pitted kalamata olives, coarsely chopped
1 1/2 teaspoons minced shallots (about 1/2 small)
1/4 cup sherry vinegar
1/2 cup chicken broth (store-bought or homemade)
1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
Chopped fresh herbs, such as parsley, basil and chives, for garnish, optional
Chopped fresh herbs, such as parsley, basil and chives, for garnish, optional
Winter Greens Salad, recipe follows, for serving, optional
1 cup wild arugula leaves
1 cup torn frisee leaves
1 cup thinly sliced radicchio (about 1/4 head)
1 1/2 teaspoons balsamic vinegar
2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
1/2 cup finely grated Pecorino Romano
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper

Steps:

  • For the chicken: Using a meat mallet, evenly pound the chicken breast halves between 2 sheets of plastic wrap to 1/4-inch thickness. Put the chicken into a heavy resealable bag or 9-by-13-inch baking dish. Add the oil, parsley, shallots and garlic; sprinkle the chicken with salt and pepper and mix in the bag or toss in the baking dish until the chicken is coated in the marinade. Let stand at room temperature for 30 minutes.
  • Using tongs, remove the chicken from the marinade, allowing the oil to drain. (It's ok if some of the garlic and shallots still cling to the chicken.) Discard the marinade.
  • Heat 2 tablespoons oil in a large (12- to 14-inch) skillet over medium-high heat until it shimmers. Add the chicken breasts, 2 at a time, being sure to space them out in the skillet. (Avoid over-crowding, or you won't get a good sear.) Sear until light golden on the first side, 3 to 4 minutes. Flip and sear on the other side until the chicken is cooked through, 3 to 4 minutes more. Transfer the chicken to a serving platter and cover with aluminum foil to keep warm. Cook the remaining 2 chicken breasts, adding another tablespoon of oil if needed. Reserve the skillet for the sauce.
  • For the pan sauce: In a small bowl, combine the tomatoes, basil if using and the garlic; season with salt and pepper and toss to combine. Set aside.
  • Pour out all but 2 tablespoons oil from the skillet. If the skillet is dry and more oil is needed, add about 2 tablespoons. Over medium heat, add the olives and shallots and cook until softened, about 3 minutes. Add the vinegar and cook, scraping up any browned bits in the skillet. Whisk in the chicken broth and any pan juices the chicken released on the platter and bring to a simmer. Cook until the liquid has reduced by half. Stir in the mustard, add the seasoned tomatoes and cook, stirring, until heated through, about 1 minute; season with salt and pepper if needed.
  • Spoon the sauce over the chicken on the platter, garnish with chopped herbs if using and serve immediately with the Winter Greens Salad on the side if desired.
  • Put the arugula, frisee and radicchio into a salad bowl and toss to combine. Drizzle the vinegar over the greens and toss until coated; drizzle the oil over the top and toss again. Add the cheese, season with salt and pepper and toss until well combined. Serve immediately.

Roast Chicken with Pancetta and Olives image

Oltranti and his family prepare this dish with rabbit, but it's equally appealing with chicken. Roasted with super-savory pancetta and olives, the garlicky meat stays moist in a shallow bath of white wine.
