Chicken & Shrimp Clemenceau
Pick up some boneless chicken breasts from new Saturday pastured poultry vendor Adam Aucoin of Coq Au Coin this weekend for this Chicken & Shrimp Clemenceau. Or pick up a whole bird to roast. In addition to photos of his happy birds, Adam also has cooking tips for pastured poultry to share. He recommends cooking it at a lower temperature for a shorter period of time than conventional or free-range chicken: 300 degrees for 1 1/2-2 hours, or to 150-160 degrees internal temperature for whole birds.
Ingredients
- 2 cups peeled and diced Idaho potato (about 2 medium potatoes)
- oil for frying
- 1-1/2 sticks butter, divided
- 3 boneless chicken breasts, cut into strips
- 1 cup sliced mushrooms
- 2 pounds shrimp, peeled
- 4 to 5 cloves garlic, finely minced
- 1 cup green peas (frozen or canned)
- 1 tablespoon chopped fresh flat leaf Italian parsley
- 1/2 teaspoon paprika
- salt and pepper
Directions
Fry potatoes in oil until browned (or blanch potatoes, drain, and then brown in butter). Transfer potatoes to a dish and set aside.
Melt one stick of butter in a large skillet. Add chicken strips and brown lightly. Transfer chicken to a dish and set aside.
Melt remaining half-stick of butter (if needed) in the same pan. Add mushrooms and sauté until they release their juices. Add shrimp and sauté for 2 to 3 minutes or until pink. Reduce heat, add garlic, and cook for 2 to 3 minutes.
Return chicken to pan, then add potatoes and peas; heat thoroughly. Sprinkle with parsley, paprika, salt, and pepper.
