Tips:

  • For the best results, use boneless, skinless chicken breasts that are about the same size. This will ensure that they cook evenly.
  • If you don't have a meat mallet, you can use a rolling pin to pound the chicken breasts thin.
  • Be careful not to overcook the chicken, or it will become dry and tough. Cook it until it is just cooked through, about 3-4 minutes per side.
  • Use fresh, ripe cherry tomatoes for the best flavor. If you don't have cherry tomatoes, you can use halved grape tomatoes.
  • If you don't have ricotta cheese, you can use cottage cheese instead. Just be sure to drain the cottage cheese well before using it.
  • Serve the chicken escalopes immediately with a side of your favorite pasta or vegetables.

Conclusion:

Chicken escalopes with cherry tomatoes, ricotta, and mozzarella is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for a weeknight meal. The chicken is tender and juicy, and the cherry tomatoes, ricotta, and mozzarella add a pop of flavor and creaminess. This dish is sure to be a hit with your family and friends.
