Recipe instructions
- Skin, bone, chicken; 2 whole chicken breasts (about 1 lb. each), split; or 8 chicken thighs (2 to 2 1/2 lbs total), or half of each; discard skin and bones, then rinse meat and pat dry. Place chicken pieces 5 to 6 inches apart on a sheet of plastic wrap; tuck any scraps of meat under larger pieces. Cover with another sheet of plastic wrap. Pound meat firmly with a flat surfaced mallet (do not hit hard enough to break meat apart) until each piece is evenly 3/16 to 1/4 inch thick.
- Sprinkle chicken LIGHTLY with herbs such as (dry basil, dill weed, rubbed dry sage, dry oregano leaves, dry marjoram leaves, or seasoned pepper. In a 10 to 12 inch frying pan, melt just enough butter to coat bottom of pan over high heat. Add chicken, a portion at a time, without crowding; cook just until lightly browned, 1 to 1 1/2 minutes on each side. Add more butter to pan as needed.
- When all meat has been cooked, return it to frying pan and add brandy; carefully ignite with a match (be sure pan is not beneath a vent, fan, or flammable items). Shake pan until flames die.
- Remove pan from heat; quickly lift meat from juices and keep warm in a serving dish.
- Return pan to high heat and add cream. Stir to scrape browned bits free; boil until large, shiny bubbles form, 2 to 3 minutes. Drain any accumulated juices from chicken into sauce; stir to blend, then pour over chicken. Season to taste with salt.
