Tender chicken breasts with a sauce exploiting the balance of flavours between the orange and fresh coriander.
Ingredients
- 3 onions, sliced shopping list
- 5 table spoons, olive oil, shopping list
- 1 knob of butter shopping list
- 4 heaped tea spoons of soft brown sugar shopping list
- 1 finely chopped golden pepper shopping list
- 4 chicken breasts shopping list
- 1/2 bottle of white wine shopping list
- 1 large orange peeled and cut into segmants shopping list
- fresh coriander (20 - 25 stalks worth) shopping list
- sea salt shopping list
- Freshly ground black pepper shopping list
How to make it
- Heat the oil and butter in a large pan, then add the onions and brown sugar. Stir on a high heat until the onions become soft, this should take around 5 to 8 minutes.
- Turn the heat down (2 - 3 on most electric hobs) and leave without stirring for 25 to 30 minutes until the onions start to look caramelised (the same colour as the brown sugar but NOT burned). They should not burn, however keep your nose peeled for any signs.
- After the onions have caramelised bring the heat up and place the chicken breasts on top of the onions so that each piece is touching them as much as possible, turn over after 2 or 3 minutes, the chicken should brown slightly.
- Sprinkle the sea salt and ground black pepper (to taste - you dont need too much) on the chicken.
- Place the orange segmants on top of the chicken peices and cover with the fresh coriander.
- Add the golden pepper and cover with the white wine.
- Cook slowly in a pressure cooker on the hob or in a casserole dish at 180c for 1.5 - 2 hours.
- Sauce should be think and chicken tender when cooked.
- Serving suggestion: Serve with steamed basmati / wild rice mix (with a little salt and olive oil added while cooking) garnished with cherry tomatoes and freshly chopped basil.
- [edit] I had this with asparigas (steamed for 3 - 4 minutes then cooked for 1 in butter with ground black pepper, course salt and garlic) that was yummy!
