Simple Hunter Style Chicken
- 2 chicken breasts
- 2 cups sliced mushrooms
- 1/4 cup diced onions finely
- 10 cherry tomatoes - 12
- 200 grams baby potatoes
- green beans Handful whole
- 1 tablespoon dried cranberries
- 1 tablespoon butter
- 2 ounces white wine
- 1 cup chicken stock
- salt
- 1 teaspoon fresh rosemary
- Grab the chicken and brush vegetable oil on both sides of them. We're using vegetable oil instead of olive oil because of their smoking points. Vegetable has a higher smoking point, so when you're searing your chicken breasts you're not going to turn your kitchen in a ball of smoke. Season the chicken breast with salt and pepper, and then sear each side over medium high heat on a oven safe skillet (cast iron will work as well)
- If you do not have an oven safe skillet, you can substitute it with whatever pan you have and a baking pan/dish.nnOnce you have each side of the chicken breasts golden brown, place the pan into a preheated 370F oven from 20-25 minutes or an internal temp of 165F. Make sure to add a splash of water to the pan so that the drippings doesn't dry out. Periodically check on it, and add more water if needed.
- While the chicken is in the oven, lets prepare the ingredients for the sauce. Slice the mushrooms, finely dice the onions and rosemary, trim the stem ends of the green beans, cut the tomatoes in half, and lightly scrub the potatoes under running water. Place the potatoes and beans into a small pot of salted water and boil until the beans are tender and the potatoes are soft.
- When the chicken is done, take it out of the oven and place the pan over medium heat. Move the chicken breast onto a plate, and let it rest while we make the sauce. If you used a baking dish try to collect all the juices and drippings; you can add a little bit of water to loosen some of the sticky bits.
- Add the mushrooms to the pan, and saute them until they are golden brown. Make sure to scrape the bottom of the pan to loosen any of the fond (the sticky bits from the chicken). Once the mushrooms are ready, toss in the onions and saute them until they start to soft. Pour in the chicken stock along with the rosemary and simmer over low heat until you reach your desired consistency. Toss in the cherry tomatoes at the last 5 minutes and simmer them until they soften.
- Once you think you're done. Turn off the heat, and finish the sauce with the butter and dried cranberries. Season to taste.
