Pan-fried chicken with apples & rosemary

Step by Step

Step 1

Put the chicken in a large bowl with the flour, salt and plenty of freshly ground black pepper. Toss to combine and set aside. Put the oil and 30g butter in a large sauté pan (about 28cm diameter) and set over a medium-high heat. Once hot, add the rosemary, lemon zest and apple wedges, laying them flat on their sides. Cook for about 8 minutes, turning halfway, until golden on both sides. Use a slotted spoon to transfer the apples to a plate lined with kitchen paper; set aside.

Step 2

Keeping the pan on the heat, add the chicken and cook for 5-6 minutes, turning halfway through, until golden on both sides. Transfer to a plate and set aside.

Step 3

Add the wine, garlic, oregano and olives (or capers) to the pan. Bring to a simmer, then cook on a high heat for about 2 minutes to thicken the sauce slightly. Add the lemon juice, stock (or water) and remaining 30g butter. Stir to combine and heat for a minute, then return the chicken and apples to the pan. Season, stir, bring to a simmer and gently bubble away for about 3 minutes until the chicken is cooked through, no pink meat remains and the juices run clear. Serve at once with some buttery mash or polenta, or a crisp green salad, if liked.
