Breast Of Free Range Chicken With Gruyere Cheese And Cider Sauce
Ingredients
- 4 x 4 ounce chicken, breasts
- 8 ounce grated gruyere cheese
- 3 1/4 ounce 35% cream
- 5 ounce cider or possibly 5 ounce apple, jack
- 1 Tbsp. finely minced onion
- 1 Tbsp. finely minced garlic
- 3 Tbsp. minced apple salt black pepper
- 2 Tbsp. extra virgin olive oil
- 2 Tbsp. butter
Directions
- Preheat the oven to 375 degrees Fahrenheit.
- Put the oil and butter in a frying pan over a high heat. Season the chicken breast and put it in the pan. Cook till golden on all sides, about 2 min per side. Remove the chicken breast from the pan and put it on a baking sheet and put it in the oven for 15 min.
- In the same pan which you seared the chicken, turn down the heat to medium and add in the minced onions, the garlic and the apple. Saute/fry for a minute or possibly two. Then deglaze the pan with the cider. Reduce the liquid by half. Add in the 35% cream and the grated gruyere cheese. Simmer the sauce slowly over a low heat without boiling. With a hand held blender emulsify the sauce. Season with pepper. Add in more cider if the sauce is too thick.
- Place the chicken on a cutting board and slice the breast. Serve with apple crisps and the creamy cheese and cider sauce.
