Ingredients
Method
Techniques
  • flour
  • shallots
  • garlic
  • broccoli rabe
  • fresh bella mushroom
  • oil
  • salt
Warm the stock, then turn it off so it does not boil hard. Heat oil in a pan; test with a piece of parsley to see if it fries.
The ingredients laid out
  • 3 pieces chicken breast
Dredge the chicken breasts lightly in flour so they do not stick, shaking off the excess; sear until nicely blonde, about 30 seconds more on each side.
Set the chicken aside to rest; drain off some of the oil and juices.
  • olive oil
  • 1 stick butter
Add olive oil and a little less than a stick of butter and let it melt without burning.
Butter, shallots, mushrooms and rabe
  • pepper
Add the shallots and garlic, then the mushrooms and broccoli rabe; let them sizzle; season with salt and pepper.
  • parsley
  • white wine
Add a pinch of parsley, then a little over a quarter glass of white wine; reduce until the alcohol has evaporated so it does not taste of wine.
  • chicken stock
Add about a scoop and a half of chicken stock -- not too much or it takes forever -- and return the chicken.
Cover with a plate and cook about 7 to 8 minutes, until the juice and sauce reduce.
