To Know How to Cook is to Eat Well—to Eat Well is to Live Well!
 

If there is one thing all food lovers know it is that a good day can be made even better by the enjoyment of a pleasurable meal.

At Company's Coming, our students learn how to create delicious meals from a wide range of cultures. Using easy to follow recipes with "Make ahead" notes, each hands on participation class prepares a full meal - or a series of small plates. Once the table is set, the group then sits down to enjoy the meal together.

It doesn't matter whether you are a novice, an experienced cook or a lapsed cook. You will learn to cook better with new skills as you gain an appreciation for new flavors. Our recipes specialize in appetizing, fresh and healthy foods that are easy to prepare - we promise!

In addition to our schedule of classes, Company's Coming also offers Customized Classes for business, friends and family. Each of these private classes is customized to make it unique and memorable for your group! Select from Team Building, Corporate or Party classes.
Our Latest Recipe ~ CHICKEN WITH MUSTARD SAUCE
 

Make ahead note:

The chicken can be browned ahead and refrigerated. Remove it and finish the recipe just before serving.

Ingredients

  • 8 chicken breast halves, skinned and deboned
  • 1 cup flour
  • 2 tea dried tarragon
  • 2 tea salt
  • 2 Tbl unsalted butter or extra virgin olive oil
  • 1 cup cognac
  • 1 cup chicken stock
  • 8 Tbl Dijon mustard
  • 4 Tbl lemon juice
  • 8 Tbl capers
  • Salt and pepper to taste

Combine the flour, tarragon and salt in a bowl. Dredge each piece of chicken and shake off the excess. Place on a plate.

Melt the butter in a large skillet. Add the chicken and saute until lightly colored. Turn and cook the other side. This should take about 10 minutes per batch. Remember not to crowd the chicken too much in the skillet.

Warm the cognac in a small saucepan. Reserve one spoonful and pour the rest over the chicken. Light the spoonful and then add to the chicken. Shake the skillet until the flames subside. Add the broth, mustard and lemon juice to the skillet and reduce the heat to low. Simmer the chicken for 20 minutes. Turn the breasts once as they cook. Arrange the meat on a platter and top with the sauce. Sprinkle with the capers and serve.
