Chicken with CheeseELEGANT AND EASY CHICKEN WITH BOURSIN CHEESE SAUCEI do believe chicken is the most popular entrée, whether at home or dining out. So it’s always fun to share one of my new creations. The recipe I’m sharing today is a winner – easy on the cook but will win you raves. This is homey enough for family, elegant enough for a sit-down dinner for guests. CHICKEN WITH BOURSIN CHEESE SAUCE 4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts, pounded to even thickness Preheat oven to 400. Put Melba in heavy-duty plastic freezer bag, seal and pound with meat pounder (and notice I’m using a meat pounder which is “sealed” where it connects with the handle so no bacteria can work its way in), leaving some crumbs the size of pebbles in the mixture. Pour into shallow pie plate. Mix eggs mustard and seasonings. Pour into another shallow pie plate. Coat chicken on both sides with egg mixture. Then set in crumbs, flipping chicken over to coat both sides. Shake off excess and place on sprayed cookie sheet. Or if you are using one of our AllClad cookie sheets, which is dishwasher safe, non-stick and yes, you can use metal utensils on it, don’t spray. Bake until chicken is golden brown and cooked through, about 20-30 minutes, or until it registers 150 degrees. Carry-over cooking will occur, causing the breasts to raise to 160. Don’t overbake or chicken will be dry. While chicken is baking, make sauce: BOURSIN SAUCE Blend cream and wine together in saucepan. A good nonstick like Calphalon works well so that the mixture doesn’t stick to the bottom. Reduce by 1/3 and add cheese. Whisk until smooth. Stir in chopped parsley. SIMPLE STEAMED FRESH SPINACHA very simple way to cook spinach. No need to add herbs, shallots, etc. because the Boursin sauce is flavorful enough to stand up to plain steamed spinach. If you like, cook the spinach in some melted unsalted butter. 1 pound spinach, washed and with some water left clinging to leaves Place spinach in large sauté or stockpot with lid on. Turn heat on high and cook until wilted, about 3 minutes. To Serve: Place steamed spinach on plate. Put chicken breast on top. Pour sauce over and sprinkle with fresh parsley. Chicken with Cheese Serves 4. A great new recipe - Chicken with Cheese!
