pan seared chicken


medallions of yellow squash starting to cook in chicken broth

Any time I ask Bill what he would like for dinner if it isn't his birthday, he always wants pan seared chicken. Wegman's came out with a product a couple years ago called pan searing flour. It is a very fine flour with seasonings added. I put a dab of olive oil and a dab of butter in the pan and heat it. Then sprinkle one side of the chicken with the flour, put it flour side down in the pan, sprinkle the top side and sear the chicken on fairly high heat until it is golden. then flip it over, cover the pan, reduce the heat to low and let it cook until it is golden, tender and moist. This time I decided to serve it on a bed of spinach, arugula and radicchio with yellow squash.

It's amazing how much spinach cooks down. I added a few dashes of Greek Vinaigrette dressing to the mix.

Wow! This dinner looks yummy. Love that searing flour. It seems to be kind of seasoned, isn't it?
