TUSCAN CHICKEN IN LEMON-WINE SAUCE (SCALOPPINE AL LIMONE)



Tuscan Chicken in Lemon-Wine Sauce (Scaloppine Al Limone) image

My husband and I learned to make this lemony chicken entree on a cooking vacation in Italy. The recipe is very quick and easy, yet bursting with flavor and tenderness. The sauce is made by whisking a beaten egg into the reduced liquids. We love it served over a side of pasta to soak up all the lemon-wine sauce.

Categories     Chicken Breast

Time 30m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 11

4 boneless skinless chicken breast halves
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/8 teaspoon fresh ground pepper
2 tablespoons flour
1 tablespoon butter
1 tablespoon olive oil
1/2 cup white wine
1/2 cup chicken broth (or water and bullion cube)
1/4 cup fresh parsley, chopped
1 large egg, well beaten
1/4 cup fresh lemon juice, freshly squeezed

Steps:

  • Flatten each chicken breast by pounding gently with a flat meat mallet (Hint - pound chicken inside a Ziploc bag - no mess!). Sprinkle flattened breasts with salt and pepper. Then dredge chicken in flour; shake off excess.
  • Heat butter and oil over HIGH heat; just before butter starts to brown, add the chicken pieces and saute quickly to brown, about 3 minutes. Flip and brown other side (3 more minutes). It doesn't need to be totally cooked through because it will cook more in the sauce later.
  • Remove chicken to platter but leave all browned bits in the skillet.
  • Add wine to browned bits in skillet and boil to reduce wine by almost half (about 3 minutes). Add chicken broth and bring to a boil.
  • In a small bowl, whisk together egg and lemon juice. Stir egg/lemon mixture into simmering wine and broth, whisking constantly until sauce is smooth and a little thickened (about 2 minutes). It will thicken more when you put in the chicken breasts which have a flour coating.
  • Add chicken and any juices back into the sauce; allow to simmer about 5 minutes until chicken is cooked through, turning chicken once. Add chopped parsley.
  • Place chicken on platter and pour sauce over top; garnish with lemon slices and additional parsley sprigs.
  • HINT: Please use FRESH lemons and parsley; it has a big impact on the flavor of the dish, and besides, no aspiring Italian chef would consider using otherwise!

CHICKEN & LINGUINE TUSCANO



Chicken & Linguine Tuscano image

Recipes with cream sauces are a departure for me, but I really like this because it's not that "saucy" (it just coats the chicken and linguine) and the flavor is fabulous. It doesn't take long to prepare and it's a very satisfying dish with some salad or roasted asparagus spears. This will serve 2 for dinner with leftovers for someone's lunch the next day... ;o)

Categories     Main

Time 20m

Number Of Ingredients 14

1 teaspoon kosher salt (plus more for pasta water)
1 pound linguine pasta (uncooked)
3 tablespoon extra virgin olive oil
1 pound boneless skinless chicken breasts
1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
4 cloves garlic (minced)
2 red bell peppers (cored, seeded and cut into thin strips)
1/4 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes
1 cup Chardonnay
2 teaspoons Italian Seasoning Blend
2 cups half-and-half
1 cup freshly shredded Parmesan cheese
5 ounces fresh spinach
1/4 cup chopped fresh Italian parsley

Steps:

  • Bring a pot of water to a boil over high heat. Add a small handful of salt and the linguine and cook until it's al dente (has a bite to it). Drain the pasta and reserve 2 cups of the pasta water.
  • Meanwhile, warm a 10-inch skillet over medium-high heat. Once you can feel the heat when you hold your hand 6 inches above the skillet, add the oil. Season both sides of the chicken with the salt and pepper. Add the chicken to the skillet. Cook the chicken until it's a deep golden brown and completely cooked through, 3 to 5 minutes on each side. Remove the chicken and place it on a plate.

Add the wine and seasoning blend to the skillet and scrape the browned bits from the bottom of the pan. Bring the wine to a boil for 2 minutes. Add the half-and-half and the Parmesan cheese. Stir until the cheese melts into the sauce, about 1 minute. Add the reserved pasta water, a ladleful at a time, to thin the sauce if necessary. Sprinkle in the spinach and add the pasta.
  • Twirl the pasta and spinach into the sauce with tongs. Top with the cooked chicken. Sprinkle with the parsley.

Be sure not to leave it unattended, or you may have a boil-over to clean up. If you are sensitive to alcohol, you can substitute the Chardonnay for chicken stock.

Tips:

  • Mise en Place: Before you start cooking, make sure you have all of your ingredients and equipment ready. This will help you stay organized and avoid scrambling.
  • Use Fresh Ingredients: The fresher your ingredients are, the better your dish will taste. If possible, use organic and locally-sourced ingredients.
  • Cook the Pasta Al Dente: Al dente pasta is cooked until it is just tender, but still has a slight bite to it. This is the ideal texture for pasta dishes.
  • Use Good Quality Olive Oil: Olive oil is a key ingredient in many Italian dishes. Make sure to use a good quality extra virgin olive oil.
  • Season to Taste: Always taste your food before serving and adjust the seasoning as needed. Salt and pepper are essential, but you may also want to add other seasonings such as garlic, onion, or chili pepper.
