Chicken Madeira 😙💨 Cheesecake Factory who??? Full recipe linked in my bio!! #chickenmadeira #dinnerideas #food #easymeals #dinner

I made a copycat version of the chicken Madeira from the Cheesecake Factory. This is one of my personal favorites from the restaurant. It's so good. Let's get into it. I have some thinly sliced chicken breasts. I'm gonna keep it simple with the seasoning. Salt and pepper, garlic powder, onion powder, and some Italian seasoning on both sides. I'm just gonna pan sear these for about five minutes on each side. This chicken came out so pretty. I'm gonna start on the sauce. I'm gonna add in some butter, some baby Bellas, and some fresh garlic. Now, these mushrooms have my house smelling so damn good, but once they start to look like they're getting a little caramelized, we're gonna add in two cups of Madeira wine and a glass for the chef, of course. I'm gonna let this cook down for about five minutes. You want it to be on a low boil, nothing too crazy. And then I'm gonna add in a cup and a half of beef broth, going in with a little garlic powder, onion powder, salt and pepper. Bring this to a boil, let it simmer for about five to 10 more minutes, and then I'm going in with a cornstarch slurry to thicken it up. I ended up using about a tablespoon and a half of cornstarch with just a little bit of water to get it to mix. Add that in slowly. And then I did add a couple tabs Of cold butter for the mashed potatoes. I boiled some russet potatoes until fork tender, adding in some butter, heavy cream, cream cheese, and some salts. I add a lot of salt. Potatoes need salt. Y'all mash until smooth. And this was a 100 out of 10. Give it a try. Let me know what you think.

Broccoli & cheddar chicken soup 🍲 full recipe is linked in my bio! #fallrecipe #broccolicheddarsoup #dinnerideas #soup #food

I made some broccoli and cheddar chicken soup. Yes, I added chicken so it would actually fill me up. It's super rainy and cold here in Virginia, so I had to make some of my favourite soup. Let's get into it. So I have three chicken breasts. I'm just gonna season them with some garlic powder, onion powder and some of this Kinder's cowboy butter. I season them on both sides and just pat that seasoning in a little bit in my Dutch oven. I'm gonna add some olive oil. We're gonna add our chicken breasts in, cover it and cook these on each side for about 5 minutes. And I maybe burn the pot a little bit, but we're gonna keep it pushing. I'm going in with 1/2 a stick of butter, one diced yellow onion, saute that for a couple minutes. And then I'm going in with about 5 minced garlic cloves, one fourth of a cup of all purpose flour, brown that flour a little bit. And I'm going in with 1 cup of chicken broth, four crowns of broccoli that I chopped up. The crowns were a little small, so you could do like three large ones. Going in with four shredded carrots, adding one more cup of broth. I'm gonna cover this, let this simmer for about five minutes, and then we're gonna add four more cups of chicken broth, a little garlic powder, onion powder powder, salt and pepper, 2 cups of heavy cream. Shredding my chicken up, gonna add that back to the pot, let this simmer and then once it gets to a low boil, we're gonna slowly mix in 24 ounces of cheddar cheese. I'm using medium cheddar. You can use whatever you want, but make sure you add it slowly and make sure it doesn't boil too fast because it will clump up and you will have a big gloopy mess. But this was so damn good. Give it a try. Let me know what you think.

Chicken au poivre with maple glazed Brussels and mashed potatoes 🤤 @Corre Larkin thank you for this delicious recipe #chickenaupoivre #dinnerideas #food #dinner #bakedchicken

I made the viral chicken au poivre. I'm probably not saying that right, but it was a 10 out of 10. Let me show you all how I made mine. So I didn't feel like wrestling with a whole chicken. So I got a whole chicken already cut up from Wegmans. Imma drizzle this with some olive oil and some salts, and I'm gonna pop this in the oven for about 15 minutes. And I know you're thinking it needs more seasoning, I'm trying to make this as close to the original creator as possible. In a bowl, I'm adding some fresh cracked pepper, some garlic, some chopped up Rosemary shallots, salt, and heavy cream. Lots of heavy cream and some cooking wine. When the chicken comes out the oven, we're just gonna pour this right over our chicken, and it's gonna go back in for about 45 minutes to an hour, basting it every 10 to 15 minutes. My sauce was a little too thick, so I feel like I should have used some more cream, but it was still really good. In a pan, I'm adding some butter, maple syrup, honey, smoked paprika, red pepper flakes, and soy sauce. That's gonna be the glaze for our Brussels sprouts, which I deep fried for about five minutes until they were nice and crispy. Pour that glaze right over them. I boiled some russet potatoes until fork tender, adding some butter, heavy cream, sour cream, and some salt. Mash Until smooth. I really like this meal. Give it a try. I'll tag the original creator below.
