CHICKEN SCHNITZEL WITH DILL AND SESAME



Chicken Schnitzel with Dill and Sesame image

All the delicious crunch of fried chicken, with less mess-that's the elevator pitch for schnitzel. Pounding the breasts into thin cutlets helps them cook in a flash. We season the flour and the panko mixture, not just the meat, and add sesame seeds for a nuttier crunch. Serve the dish with Watercress-Apple Relish for a bright, peppery counterpoint.

Time 45m

Number Of Ingredients 10

2 large boneless, skinless chicken-breast halves, sliced in half horizontally, or 4 cutlets (about 1 1/4 pounds total)
Kosher salt and freshly ground pepper
1/3 cup unbleached all-purpose flour
1 large egg
3/4 cup panko
3 tablespoons sesame seeds
4 teaspoons dill weed
Vegetable oil, for frying
Watercress-Apple Relish, for serving
Dijon or other mustard, for serving (optional)

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 175°F. Arrange chicken in a single layer on a large cutting board and cover with plastic wrap. Gently pound with the flat side of a meat mallet or the bottom of a heavy skillet to an even 1/4-inch thickness. Season chicken on both sides with salt and pepper.
  • Place flour in a pie dish or a wide, shallow bowl; season with salt and pepper. Whisk egg in another dish until thoroughly combined (no clear streaks remaining). In a third dish, combine panko with sesame seeds and dill; season. Working one at a time, dredge chicken pieces in flour, turning to evenly coat and shaking off any excess. Dip in egg, turning to evenly coat and allowing any excess to drip back into dish. Dredge in panko mixture, turning and pressing with your hands as necessary to fully coat. Transfer to a rimmed baking sheet lined with a wire rack and let stand 10 minutes.
  • Heat 1/4-inch oil in a large, heavy skillet (preferably cast iron) over medium-high. When it shimmers, carefully add 1 or 2 cutlets in a single layer (do not crowd pan). Cook, flipping once, until chicken is just cooked through and panko turns crisp and golden brown, 4 to 6 minutes total (if panko begins to darken too quickly, reduce heat slightly). Transfer to a wire rack set inside a rimmed baking sheet and keep warm in preheated oven while frying remaining pieces. Serve, with relish and mustard alongside.

ROAST CHICKEN AND VEGETABLES WITH TAHINI



Roast Chicken and Vegetables With Tahini image

This comforting but peppy chicken-and-vegetable combo accommodates any root vegetables that you like or need to use up. Roast them alongside morsels of boneless chicken thighs that have been tossed with ginger, dill and citrus zest. What comes out of the oven needs just a drizzle of straight-from-the-jar tahini: It is nutty, creamy and a great counterpart to sweet root vegetables, for those times you just don't feel like making a sauce. Finish with more herbs and maybe a scattering of red-pepper flakes and sesame seeds, then pile the mixture over whole grains, a salad or sautéed greens, or into a pita. For a vegetarian version, swap the chicken for chickpeas, extra-firm tofu or tempeh.

Time 45m

Yield 2 to 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 10

1 1/2 to 2 pounds boneless, skinless chicken thighs, cut into 1-inch pieces
2 tablespoons grated ginger (from a 3-inch root)
1/4 cup coarsely chopped dill or cilantro leaves and stems
1 tablespoon lime or lemon zest (from 1 to 2 fruits)
5 cups 1/2-inch-diced root vegetables (about 1 1/2 pounds, peeled if desired), such as parsnips, sweet potatoes, carrots, yellow beets, turnips and celery roots
2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil or melted coconut oil
Kosher salt (Diamond Crystal)
Black pepper
3 tablespoons tahini, well-stirred
Red-pepper flakes and toasted sesame seeds (optional), for serving

Steps:

  • Heat the oven to 425 degrees with a rack in the lower third of the oven. On a sheet pan, combine the chicken, ginger and 2 tablespoons of the chopped dill. Sprinkle about 1 tablespoon lime zest over the mixture, then toss with your hands to combine. Add the root vegetables, olive oil, 2 teaspoons salt and a few generous grinds of pepper. Toss to coat, then arrange in an even layer.
  • Roast until the vegetables are soft and caramelized and the chicken is cooked through, 30 to 35 minutes. (Check the mixture halfway through cooking; if some vegetables are browning too quickly, give them a stir.) If you want the chicken more browned, run the pan under the broiler for a few minutes.
  • Drizzle the tahini over the sheet pan and let sit, 2 to 3 minutes. Sprinkle with the remaining dill, as well as the red-pepper flakes and sesame seeds as desired. Cut one of the limes into wedges for squeezing over. (Refrigerate the other for another use.)

Tips:

  • For the best results, use boneless, skinless chicken breasts that are about the same size. This will help them cook evenly.
  • If you don't have a meat mallet, you can use a rolling pin or the bottom of a heavy saucepan to pound the chicken breasts.
  • Make sure the chicken is coated in the egg wash and bread crumbs before frying. This will help the breading adhere to the chicken and prevent it from falling off.
  • When frying the chicken, use a heavy-bottomed skillet over medium heat. This will help prevent the chicken from burning.
  • Cook the chicken for about 4-5 minutes per side, or until it is golden brown and cooked through.
  • Serve the chicken schnitzel immediately with your favorite sides, such as mashed potatoes, green beans, or a salad.

Conclusion:

Chicken schnitzel with dill and sesame is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for a weeknight meal. The chicken is tender and juicy, and the breading is crispy and flavorful. The dill and sesame seeds add a unique and delicious flavor to the dish. This recipe is sure to be a hit with your family and friends.
