Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 16

4 garlic cloves, finely chopped
1 cup fresh flat-leaf parsley leaves (a few large handfuls), chopped
1 teaspoon hot sauce, such as Tabasco (eyeball it)
6 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil (EVOO)
Salt and freshly ground black pepper
4 6-to 8-ounce boneless, skinless chicken breast halves
4 tablespoons mayonnaise, plain yogurt, or sour cream
3 tablespoons capers, drained, coarsely chopped
2 tablespoons red wine vinegar (eyeball it)
3 tablespoons fresh dill, chopped
1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
1 pint yellow cherry or grape tomatoes, halved
1 large head of radicchio, thinly sliced
6 scallions, thinly sliced
1 seedless cucumber, cut in quarters lengthwise, then sliced into bite-size pieces
Crusty bread, sliced and toasted

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 400°F.
  • In a shallow dish, combine the garlic, parsley, hot sauce, 3 tablespoons of the EVOO, salt, and pepper. Add the chicken breasts and coat in the mixture; marinate for 5 minutes.

PAN-ROASTED CHICKEN BREASTS WITH ONION AND ALE SAUCE



Pan-Roasted Chicken Breasts With Onion and Ale Sauce image

Cook's Illustrated. "Try to choose 10- to 12-ounce split chicken breasts with skin intact. If split breasts are of different sizes, check the smaller ones a few minutes early to see if they are cooking more quickly, and remove them from the skillet if they are done ahead. Brown ale gives this sauce a nutty, toasty, bittersweet flavor. Newcastle Brown Ale and Samuel Smith Nut Brown Ale are good choices."
