Categories     main-dish

Time 35m

Yield 2 servings

Number Of Ingredients 18

2 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
1 cup all-purpose flour
1 cup almond flour
1 tablespoon smoked paprika
1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
1/2 teaspoon onion powder
3 large eggs
4 tablespoons clarified butter
4 tablespoons olive oil
1 clove garlic, smashed
1 sprig fresh rosemary
1/4 cup sour cream
1 tablespoon chardonnay vinegar
1 teaspoon honey
1 teaspoon poppy seeds
3 cups wild arugula
1/2 Gala apple, sliced

Steps:

  • One at a time, put the chicken breasts between 2 sheets of plastic wrap and flatten to an even 1/2-inch thickness with a meat mallet. Sprinkle on both sides with salt and black pepper. Set aside.
  • Add the all-purpose flour to a baking dish. In another baking dish, stir together the almond flour, paprika, garlic powder, onion powder and 1/2 teaspoon salt. In a small bowl, whisk together the eggs with 2 tablespoons water. Dredge both sides of the chicken breasts first in the AP flour, then the egg mixture and finally the almond flour mixture. Place the coated chicken back on the baking sheet.
  • Heat a large ovenproof skillet over medium-high heat. (Depending on the size of the breasts, you may need two skillets.) Add the butter and 2 tablespoons oil to the skillet. Add the garlic and rosemary and cook to infuse the oil, about 1 minute. Remove the rosemary and garlic from the skillet. Make sure the oil is hot enough to be quivering in the skillet, then add the chicken by placing it in and releasing it away from you. Shake the skillet to ensure it doesn't stick. (You can add the rosemary sprig back to the skillet if you want to infuse more flavor.) Cook until the chicken begins to brown, 3 to 4 minutes, then flip the chicken and cook until the other side is browned, another 3 to 4 minutes. Remove the chicken from the skillet and drain on a half-sheet tray fitted with a rack.
  • In a medium bowl, whisk together the sour cream, vinegar, honey, poppy seeds and 2 tablespoons water. Set aside. Season the arugula with the remaining 2 tablespoons olive oil and salt and pepper to taste and toss. Add the apple slices and toss to coat. Plate the chicken and serve with the arugula salad. Drizzle the salad with the poppy seed sour cream. Serve immediately.

Time 40m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 20

4 boneless skinless chicken breasts
1 cup all-purpose flour
4 eggs, whipped slightly with
1 dash milk
2 cups panko breadcrumbs
salt & freshly ground black pepper
2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
2 anchovy fillets
2 egg yolks (*)
2 garlic cloves, smashed
2 lemons, juice of
1/2 cup extra virgin olive oil
1/4 cup freshly grated parmesan cheese
salt & freshly ground black pepper
1 cup organic grape tomatoes, halved
baby arugula
1/2 lb fresh bocconcini, halved
shaved parmesan cheese, for garnish
lemon wedge, for garnish
extra virgin olive oil, for drizzling

Steps:

  • For the chicken:.
  • Begin by pounding out the chicken breast gently between 2 pieces of plastic wrap.
  • Prepare a breading station with flour, whisked eggs and milk, and panko crumbs. Season all with salt and pepper. Coat the breasts in flour, egg then panko. Lay the coated breasts out on a flat tray and refrigerate to let the crust dry out (about 10 minutes) this will ensure there is less moisture and less chance your coating will break when frying.
  • Shallow fry the paillard in hot oil for approximately 2 to 3 minutes per side depending on how thick the breasts are. Drain well, season with salt and set aside when done.
  • For the dressing:.
  • Put the anchovies, egg yolks, garlic, lemon juice, and water into a blender and process for 30 seconds until the mixture is smooth. With the blender running, pour the olive oil in slowly for the dressing to emulsify. Stir in the Parmesan, season with salt and a couple of grinds of black pepper; set aside. (Refrigerate the dressing if you will not be using it right away.).
  • Prepare the salad by splitting the grape tomatoes in half through the middle lengthwise, mixing all ingredients in a large mixing bowl. Add the dressing and toss the salad well.
  • To serve lay the warm, crispy chicken paillard on the base of the plate and top with the salad. Garnish with shaved parmesan cheese, a wedge of lemon and a drizzle of olive oil.
  • *RAW EGG WARNING Suggest caution in consuming raw and lightly-cooked eggs Due to the slight risk of Salmonella or other food-borne illness. To reduce this risk, we recommend you use only fresh, properly-refrigerated, clean, grade A or AA eggs with intact shells, and avoid contact between the yolks or whites and the shell.

Tips:

  • For the best results, use boneless, skinless chicken breasts that are about 1/2-inch thick. If your chicken breasts are thicker, you can pound them out to an even thickness using a meat mallet.
  • To make the chicken paillard extra crispy, dredge it in flour before cooking. This will help to create a golden brown crust.
  • Be careful not to overcook the chicken paillard. It should be cooked through but still juicy. The best way to check if the chicken is done is to use a meat thermometer. The internal temperature should reach 165 degrees Fahrenheit.
  • The arugula salad is a great way to add some freshness and crunch to the dish. For the best results, use fresh arugula that has not been wilted.
  • The lemon-tahini dressing is a delicious and flavorful addition to the salad. Be sure to whisk the dressing well before using.

Conclusion:

Chicken paillard with arugula salad is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for a weeknight meal. The chicken is crispy and juicy, and the salad is fresh and flavorful. This dish is sure to please everyone at your table.
