3908.0. "CHICKEN: Rosemary/Sherry Glazed Chicken" by FMAJOR::WALTER (used to be Aquilia) Tue Mar 01 1994 13:55

The original recipe for this comes from Bon Appetite' but I had modified it 
to what was in the cabinets.  The sauce makes a gravy with the flour and the
dish comes out tasting like a roasted chicken and very moist.  

1/4 cup olive oil
5 cloves garlic
2/3 cup sherry
2/3 cup chicken broth
4 chicken breasts (although any chicken pieces will do)
1 T crushed rosemary
1 T tomato paste

Heat large dutch oven pot over stove on medium heat.

Slice garlic cloves and saute till soft, but not brown, in olive oil.
Take out garlic slices.  Season chicken with salt and pepper, dredge in 
flour, shake off excess and brown in oil till just brown.  DO NOT OVER
COOK.  Take chicken out and keep warm.  Add sherry, tomato paste
and scrape pan.  Add chicken pieces, broth and paste and turn heat
to low.  Add rosemary and garlic to top of chicken.   Heat/simmer on low
for 20 minutes and turn every five minutes or so.

Serve with Asparagus and pasta/rice.
Enjoy,

3908.1could you use boneless chicken breastsASABET::TRUMPOLTLiz Trumpolt - 223-7195, MSO2-2/F3Wed Mar 02 1994 15:577
    was just wondering if you could use boneless Chicken Breast with this
    recipe instead of chicken breasts with the bone-in.
    
    This sounds really good.  Might give it a try with the boneless chicken
    breasts that I have in my frezzer.

3908.2You can use ANYTHING!SNOC02::MASCALLArt Imitates Life. Again.Wed Mar 02 1994 17:108
Even change the meat if you like.

The best fun in cooking is messing around with the base recipe and 
seeing what else comes out.

3908.3I had boneless but you could use anything I supposeFMAJOR::WALTERused to be AquiliaFri Mar 04 1994 09:5010
    Hi Liz,
    
    I used boneless chicken.  Some had the skin on, and some didn't.  The
    recipe called for "pieces".  I am going to try this next weekend with a
    whole chicken, cut into pieces.  
    
    I also agree that the recipe could be used with pork or meat also.

    I agree with rep 1 and 2... a recipe is only a guide.  Use your own
    	ideas to have more enjoyment when cooking.  Experimentation is
    	what I do all the time, as it can get boring to make the EXACT same
    	thing, the EXACT same way every time.  I know,,,,,,there are some
    	recipes that can't be deviated from, so cut me some slack.
