Emeril's Chicken in a Basket

YIELD 4 servings

INGREDIENTS

2 cups shredded Savoy cabbage
1 cup shredded Napa cabbage
1 cup julienned carrots
1 cup julienned leek
1 Jalapeno pepper, julienned
4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
1 teaspoon sea salt
1/2 teaspoon freshly ground white pepper
1 teaspoon ground cumin
1 teaspoon ground coriander
1 cup vegetable stock
1 tablespoon mustard seeds

PREPARATION:

Method

  1. Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. Shape four small sheets of aluminum foil into basket shapes. Divide the cabbages, carrots, leeks, and jalapeno strips evenly between each of the aluminum foil baskets. Season the chicken breasts with salt, pepper, cumin and coriander. Pour 1/4 cup of stock into the bottom of each basket and sprinkle the mustard seeds over the top of each. Seal each basket and place on a baking sheet. Bake for 25 minutes. Carefully open the baskets, place the chicken on a plate and top with the vegetables. Spoon the juices over the top and serve immediately.

    Editor's Note: Look for organic chicken—try at your local farmers market.
