CHICKEN SANDWICHES WITH ROASTED TOMATOES AND PISTACHIO MINT PESTO RECIPE - (4.7/5)

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Cut tomatoes in half lengthwise, arrange on parchment lined baking sheet and roast in oven for 45 minutes, checking after 30 minutes. While the tomatoes are roasting, make the pesto. Put the mint leave, pistachios, garlic and salt into a small food processor and process until coarsely ground. In a steady stream, add the oil and lime juice until it is a consistency you like. Mix pesto and mayonnaise together in a bowl and set aside. This will be used when you layer your sandwiches. Trim chicken breasts and slice in half horizontally. Place chicken between sheets of plastic wrap and pound lightly until they're about 1/2 inch thick. Set up three dishes; one for flour, one for beaten eggs and one for the Parmesan cheese and Panko, mixed together. Season chicken breasts with salt and pepper, dredge in flour, dip in beaten egg and coat with Panko/Parmesan mixture. Set chicken aside on wire racks until ready to cook. Heat olive oil in a skillet over high heat. Add chicken breasts to the pan and immediately reduce the heat to medium-low. Cook chicken for three minutes on each side, or until it's juicy, but not pink. Assemble sandwiches: bread, chicken, tomatoes, microgreens, pesto mayonnaise, bread. Eat and enjoy!

PISTACHIO CRUSTED CHICKEN BREASTS WITH SUN-DRIED CHERRY AND ORANGE SAUCE

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 325 degrees F (165 degrees C). Mix together the pistachios and bread crumbs in a bowl. Beat the egg whites in a separate bowl, and set aside.
• Season the chicken breasts with salt and pepper, gently dip them into the beaten egg whites, and then press into the pistachio-bread crumb mixture to coat. Gently toss between your hands so any coating that hasn't stuck can fall away.
• Heat the oil and butter in an oven-safe skillet over medium heat. Gently place the chicken breasts into the hot skillet, and fry for 5 to 8 minutes, until the bottom coating is golden brown and crisp.
• Turn the chicken over in the skillet, and place the skillet in the preheated oven. Bake for about 30 minutes, until the chicken is no longer pink, the juices run clear, and the top coating is lightly browned.
• While the chicken is baking, melt 1 teaspoon of butter in a saucepan over medium-low heat, add the shallots, and cook for 2 to 3 minutes until tender. Pour in the wine, drop in the cherries, and cook and stir for about 10 minutes to reduce wine to a glaze. Pour in the orange juice, chicken stock, and orange zest, and cook and stir about 20 more minutes, until sauce is reduced and thickened.
