Main Dish: Texas Chicken Bryan

Grilled Chicken with Sun-dried Tomatoes, Goat Cheese and Lemon Butter Sauce

Erin: I made Texas Chicken Bryan (courtesy of Carraba's) a few nights ago for Sam. I had the day off of work so I thought what the hell. It is definitely not an easy recipe but it's worth it.

Ingredients:
2 boneless skinless chicken breasts
kosher salt to taste
fresh ground pepper to taste
olive oil
4 oz goat cheese
6 sun-dried tomatoes, chopped
3 tablespoons fresh basil, chopped
4 teaspoons onion, chopped
4 teaspoons garlic, minced
8 tablespoons butter, divided
6 tablespoons white win
1/2 cup of fresh lemon juice

What to do:
1. Brush chicken on both sides with olive oil and season to taste with salt and pepper
2. Grill chicken and prepare lemon butter sauce while chicken is grilling
3. Sautee onion and garlic in 2 tablespoons butter until soft
4. Add white wine and lemon juice, reduce heat to medium low and simmer 10 minutes
5. Add 6 tablespoons of butter, a little at a time until its melts
6. Add chopped sundried tomatoes and basil and continue to heat for 5 minutes
7. When the chicken is nearly done, top each chicken breast with 2 oz of goat cheese
8.  Spoon lemon butter sauce over chicken breasts and enjoy!


I served Chicken Bryan with creamy garlic mashed potatoes and broccoli! Yum!
