CHICKEN MARENGO RECIPES RECIPES

Steps:

• Place the chicken breasts one at a time on a flat surface. Using a sharp knife, cut the breasts in half, then lengthwise into thin strips, about 1/2-inch thick.
• Cut the broccoli into florets, peel the stems and cut them into thin slices.
• Bring 4 quarts of salted water to a boil and add the broccoli. Cook for 3 minutes. Do not overcook; the broccoli must remain crisp. Drain and reserve the cooking liquid.
• Bring the reserved cooking liquid to a boil and add the ziti. Stir and cook according to package directions. The pasta should be al dente. Drain and reserve 1/2 cup of the cooking liquid.
• Heat the oil in a large skillet. Add the chicken breasts, salt and pepper. Cook and stir over medium high heat for 1 minute. Add the garlic, stir and cook briefly; do not brown. Add the tomatoes, rosemary, oregano, pepper flakes and cook, stirring, for 1 minute. Add the cream, bring to a boil and simmer for 2 minutes.
• Add the broccoli and the pasta into the tomato mixture. Add the reserved 1/2 cup of cooking liquid, salt and pepper. Bring to a simmer, add the parsley and cheese and toss well for 1 minute while cooking. Serve immediately.

Steps:

• Season the chicken with salt and pepper, to taste, and lightly dredge in flour. In a large saute pan, heat the oil over medium-high heat and add the chicken. Brown on both sides, until nicely golden, about 3 minutes per side. Remove from the pan and set aside on a plate. In the same pan, add more oil, if needed, along with the onion, mushrooms and peppers and saute until softened and fragrant, but not limp, about 5 minutes. Season with salt and pepper, to taste. Stir in the tomato paste and cook a few minutes to cook out the raw flavor. Turn up the heat, and add the wine/wine to deglaze the pan and let it reduce for 2 or 3 minutes. Add the beef broth and tomatoes. Once the mixture begins to bubble, add the browned paillards and any juices from the chicken and reduce the heat to a simmer. Cook until the chicken is warmed through, about 3 minutes. Turn the heat off and stir in the butter. Transfer to a serving platter and serve immediately.
