Swiss Style Chicken
Serves 4
Filled with lovely flavours. This is a very simple dish. Tender moist chicken topped with a creamy mushroom sauce and gruyere cheese.
1 TBS extra virgin olive oil
1 TBS butter
1 clove garlic, peeled and crushed
200g mushrooms, sliced (1/2 pound)
1 TBS chopped Tarragon
125ml whipping cream (1/2 cup)
1 TBS brandy
4 large slices Gruyere or Swiss Cheese
Place your chicken between two pieces of cling film and pound lightly until they are each about 1/2 inch thick. Season with salt and black pepper and dust lightly with flour.
Heat half of the olive oil and butter in a large skillet. Add the chicken breasts presentation sides down, and brown on one side for approximately 3 minutes until golden. Flip over and brown on the other side for a further 3 minutes. Place onto the baking tray and pop into the oven while you make the sauce.
Add the remaining butter and oil to the pan drippings. Add the mushrooms and garlic and cook over medium heat until the mushrooms have softened. Add the tarragon, cream and brandy. Stir over high heat for about 2 minutes, or until the sauce has reduced and thickened.
Remove the chicken from the oven and spoon the hot sauce over top, dividing it equally amongst the four pieces. Top each with a slice of cheese and pop back into the oven for about 5 minutes or until the cheese has melted. Serve immediately.
Easy peasy this is. Perfect for these busy last few days before the holidays . . . well, for anytime really. I would serve this to company and I am sure they would love it. Actually it is beautiful dinner party fare because it is quick and easy and yet tastes like you have been slaving all day over it. I served with English petit pois and roasted potatoes. Yum. Bon Appetit!
