CHICKEN PAILLARD WITH CREAMY PARMESAN SALAD
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
- Food Network Kitchens 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.

CHICKEN PAILLARD WITH PARMESAN BREAD CRUMBS
This recipe doesn't take long to get on the table, and you can get some aggression out at the start of the process by pounding down the chicken breasts. Then dredge the chicken in bread crumbs and Parmesan and sauté it in butter. At the end, you'll spoon brown butter over the top and add a sprinkling of capers for a very simple meal that looks very fancy indeed.

Steps:
- Place chicken breasts between 2 pieces of plastic wrap, and pound to an even thickness of 1/3 inch. Spread flour in a wide shallow bowl or pie pan. Beat eggs in another wide shallow bowl. In a third such bowl or dish, combine bread crumbs, Parmigiano-Reggiano and 3 tablespoons parsley.
- Season chicken with salt and pepper. Dredge in flour, then in egg, then in bread crumbs, pressing to help crumbs adhere. Place 2 large sauté pans or skillets over high heat for 2 minutes. Place 2 tablespoons olive oil in each pan and swirl pans so oil spreads. Heat until shimmering, 30 to 60 seconds.
- Carefully place 3 chicken breasts in each pan. Cook 3 minutes, then add one tablespoon butter to each pan. Continue to cook until undersides are golden brown, about one more minute. Reduce heat to medium, turn chicken and cook again until golden brown and chicken is opaque in center, 2 to 3 minutes. Transfer chicken to a baking sheet, cover with foil and keep warm.
- Return unwashed pans to medium heat and swirl one tablespoon olive oil into each. Divide rosemary and chili between pans and let sizzle for 30 seconds. Add half the garlic to each pan, stir a few seconds, then add escarole to each pan. Season with salt and pepper and sauté gently until greens have just wilted, 2 to 3 minutes. Season with a squeeze of lemon and transfer to a large warmed platter. Top with chicken, cover with foil and keep warm.
- Wipe out one pan and return to medium heat. Add remaining 10 tablespoons butter and cook until it is browned and has a nutty fragrance. Remove from heat, wait a few seconds and add capers, lemon zest and remaining 3 tablespoons parsley. Adjust salt and pepper as needed. Spoon brown butter and capers over chicken and greens.

BRAISED CHICKEN THIGHS WITH GREENS AND OLIVES
In this quick and comforting one-pot, stove-top meal, chicken thighs are browned, then simmered with sturdy greens. When they're in season, pleasantly bitter dandelion greens are lovely here. But any structured greens with a tendency to wilt when cooked, like escarole, kale and even Swiss chard, will work here, so feel free to use whatever you have on hand. Olives and raisins, tossed in at the very end, add some salty and sweet notes. Round out the meal with a loaf of crusty bread - it's perfect to sop up this brothy braise.

Steps:
- Season chicken thighs well with salt and pepper. In a large heavy-bottomed skillet, heat oil over medium-high heat. Add the chicken thighs, skin-side down, and cook undisturbed until nicely browned, about 5 to 6 minutes. Flip and brown the other side, about 4 to 5 minutes more. Transfer to a plate and set aside.
- Pour off all but 2 tablespoons of fat from the pan and return to medium-low heat. Add red onion, and cook until it begins to soften, about 1 to 2 minutes. Add garlic and red-pepper flakes, if using, and cook for 30 seconds more.
- Add chopped greens to the pan and stir, tossing to coat in the residual chicken fat. It may seem like a lot of greens, but they will cook down. Add the chicken thighs and any juices that have accumulated back to the pan and lay them on top of the greens. Pour in enough of the chicken stock to come up to the chicken about halfway. Bring the chicken to a gentle simmer. Partly cover and allow the chicken to finish cooking through, about 20 minutes more.
- Stir in olives and raisins and cook uncovered until they are warmed through, and the raisins are nicely plumped, about 1 minute more. Garnish with parsley, if using, and serve. Season with flaky salt, if desired.

TUNA & WHITE BEAN PASTA WITH GREMOLATA BREAD CRUMBS
Steps:
- Heat 4 tablespoons of the EVOO in a small pan over medium-low heat with the anchovies, if using. Melt the anchovies into the oil until they dissolve, then add 4 cloves of the garlic and stir for 2 minutes. Add the bread crumbs and cook, stirring, until deeply golden in color. Stir in the lemon zest, the parsley, and the red pepper flakes. Turn off the heat and transfer the gremolata bread crumbs to a bowl.
- Bring a large pot of water to a boil for the pasta. When the water boils, season with salt, add the pasta, and cook to al dente. Heads up: You will need to reserve a ladle of the pasta cooking water before draining.
- Heat a large skillet over medium heat with the remaining 2 tablespoons of EVOO. Add the celery, onions, and the remaining 2 cloves of garlic to the pan and cook until just tender, about 5 minutes. Add the white beans and rosemary and heat through for 2 to 3 minutes more. Add the wine, tuna, and tomato, if using. Stir for 2 minutes and then turn off the heat.
- Add the reserved ladle of starchy cooking water to the skillet along with the drained pasta, then toss to combine. Serve in shallow bowls with lots of gremolata bread crumbs and a drizzle of oil on top.

Steps:
- Cut into and across the chicken breast pieces and open them up like a book. Pound between 2 sheets of wax paper to 1/4-inch thickness, then season with salt and pepper and reserve.
- Heat 4 tablespoons of the EVOO in a large skillet over medium-low heat with the anchovies, if using. Melt the anchovies into the oil until they dissolve, then add half of the garlic and stir for 2 minutes. Add the bread crumbs and stir and cook until deeply golden in color. Stir in the lemon zest, parsley, and red pepper flakes. Transfer the bread crumbs to a bowl.
- Wipe out the pan and return it to the stove. Heat 1/2 tablespoon of the EVOO. Cook 2 pieces of chicken for 5 to 6 minutes, turning once, then transfer to a plate and cover with foil to keep warm. Repeat the process. Once cooked, remove the remaining chicken to the plate and add the remaining tablespoon of EVOO to the pan. Add the remaining garlic to the pan and sauté for a minute or two, then wilt in the escarole. Season the greens with salt, pepper, and the nutmeg. Once the escarole is wilted, stir in the stock and add the beans to heat through, about 2 minutes.
- Serve each paillard on a dinner plate topped with a generous mound of greens and beans and a healthy sprinkle of flavored bread crumbs.
Tips:
- To ensure even cooking, use a meat mallet to pound the chicken breasts to an even thickness. - Season the chicken with salt and pepper before cooking. This will help to enhance its flavor. - Use a large skillet to cook the chicken. This will give it plenty of room to brown and cook evenly. - Cook the chicken over medium heat. This will help to prevent it from burning or becoming dry. - Use a meat thermometer to check the internal temperature of the chicken. It should reach 165 degrees Fahrenheit before it is safe to eat. - Serve the chicken immediately with the wilted greens, white beans, gremolata, and bread crumbs. This will ensure that all of the flavors are at their best.Conclusion:
