CHICKEN SCALLOPINI



Chicken Scallopini image

While many have heard of veal scallopini, you can make this Italian dish with most any meat or even vegetables. The trick is to use a demi-glace of the same style -- i.e., a venison demi if using deer. You can 'fake' a demi-glace by reducing an appropriate brown stock and adding a water and flour slurry to thicken. Makes an awesome romantic dinner for two.

Time 40m

Yield 2

Number Of Ingredients 12

1 clove garlic, pressed
¼ cup butter, softened
2 skinless, boneless chicken breast halves
½ cup all-purpose flour
salt and ground black pepper to taste
4 ounces sliced mushrooms
20 capers, or to taste
2 tablespoons lemon juice
¼ cup white wine
2 tablespoons chicken-flavored demi-glace, or to taste
1 teaspoon chopped fresh parsley, or to taste
2 lemon slices

Steps:

  • In a small bowl, stir together the garlic and butter until well combined. Set aside. Place a chicken breast half on a work surface with the thick side facing to the right (if you're right-handed), and place your left hand down on the chicken breast. Using a very sharp knife, carefully cut the chicken breast from the thick side to about 1/2 inch from the edge of the thin side, in a horizontal cut. Open the cut chicken breast and spread it out like an open book. Using a meat mallet, gently pound the butterflied chicken breast out until it's an even thickness.
  • Place the flour into a shallow dish, and dredge each chicken breast on both sides with flour. Melt the garlic butter in a large skillet over medium heat until it stops foaming, and cook each chicken breast until golden brown on both sides, 6 to 8 minutes per side. Sprinkle each breast with salt and pepper. Remove the chicken breasts to a platter, and keep warm.
  • Cook and stir the mushrooms in the same skillet as the chicken until the mushrooms have absorbed the remaining butter in the skillet and have begun to turn brown at the edges. Stir in capers, lemon juice, white wine, and chicken demi-glace, and stir to combine. Reduce to a simmer. Adjust salt and pepper again, and stir the parsley into the sauce.
  • Remove the chicken breasts to plates, and serve the sauce over the chicken. Garnish each serving with a lemon slice.

HARD CIDER-SAUCED CHICKEN SCALLOPINE



HARD CIDER-SAUCED CHICKEN SCALLOPINE image

Categories     Chicken     Apple

Yield 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 13

1 1/2 pounds thinly sliced chicken cutlets, between 1/4- and 1/2- inch thick
Salt
Freshly ground black pepper
1 1/2 tablespoons olive oil
1 medium onion, cut into 1/4 -inch dice (1 cup)
1 large rib celery, cut into 1/4-inch dice (3/4 cup)
1 medium sweet, crisp apple, peeled and cored, such as Honeycrisp, cut into 1/4-inch dice (1 cup)
1 cup homemade or no-salt-added chicken broth
1 1/2 cups (one 12-ounce bottle) hard cider
1 tablespoon Dijon-style mustard, or more to taste
1 tablespoon light or dark brown sugar, or more to taste
2 teaspoons cornstarch
2 tablespoons chopped parsley, for garnish

Steps:

  • 1. Season the chicken with salt and pepper. Heat 1 tablespoon of the oil in a large saute pan or skillet over medium-high heat. Add as many chicken cutlets as will fit comfortably, working in batches to keep from crowding the pan or skillet. Cook for 2 to 3 minutes, until the first side is nicely browned; turn them over and cook for 3 to 4 minutes or until the cutlets are cooked through. Adjust the heat as necessary to keep the pan or skillet hot, but not smoking. Transfer the cooked chicken to a platter as you work. 2. When all of the cutlets are cooked, add the remaining 1/2 tablespoon of oil to the pan or skillet along with the onion and a pinch of salt. Cook over medium heat for 3 to 4 minutes, until the onion has softened. Add the celery and apple; cook for 3 to 4 minutes, stirring once or twice, until the celery is tender. 3. Whisk in the broth and 1 1/4 cups of the hard cider, the mustard and brown sugar. Increase the heat to medium-high; once the mixture comes to a boil, cook for about 5 minutes, stirring a few times, until it has reduced by half. 4. Dissolve the cornstarch in the remaining 1/4 cup of the cider in a cup to form a slurry; add that to the pan or skillet, whisking to incorporate and slightly thicken the sauce. 5. Return the chicken cutlets and any accumulated juices to the pan or skillet and reduce the heat to low; allow

SCALLOPED CHICKEN

My husband has never been too fond of chicken, but he certainly likes it prepared this way. My children love this dish, too, and they make it often in their own homes. For easy preparation, make everything but the topping a day ahead and then refrigerate it. Add the topping before baking.

CHICKEN SCALLOPINI WITH MUSHROOM SAUCE



Chicken Scallopini With Mushroom Sauce image

I don't remember where I found this recipe, it has been in my recipe box for about 25 years now. It is wonderful for a special occasion dinner, but can also be made up fairly quickly on a weeknight. You can buy sliced mushrooms to use in this to speed it up a bit. This is going to be the main course for my Valentine's Day Dinner this year. I use chicken broth from a 1 litre carton if I don't have any homemade frozen. While it definitely is not diet food you can lighten it up a bit by using half & half instead of heavy cream, but the sauce will be a bit thinner then. While this takes a bit more work than just cooking some chicken breasts it is well worth the effort. You can serve this with pasta or risotto, and some whole green beans with baby carrots.

Provided by Meghann

Categories     Meat and Poultry Recipes     Chicken     Chicken Breast Recipes     Skillet

Time 50m

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 9

3 tablespoons canola oil
4 skinless, boneless chicken breast halves, pounded 1/2-inch thick
salt and pepper to taste
2 cloves garlic, minced
2 onions, sliced
½ cup white wine
½ cup chicken stock
¾ cup heavy cream
1 ½ teaspoons all-purpose flour

Steps:

  • Heat the canola oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Season the chicken breasts with salt and black pepper. Arrange the chicken in the skillet and pan fry until golden brown, no longer pink in the center, and the juices run clear, about 10 minutes on each side. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 165 degrees F (74 degrees C). Transfer the chicken to a large platter, and cover with aluminum foil.
  • Return the skillet to the stove and reduce heat to medium. Stir in the garlic and onion; cook and stir until the onion has softened and turned translucent, about 5 minutes. Stir in the white wine and scrape up any brown bits from the skillet with a spatula. Add the chicken stock, and continue to cook and stir until the liquid has reduced, about 5 minutes. Stir in the heavy cream and flour; cook and stir until thickened. Top the chicken with the sauce before serving.

Tips:

  • Choose the right cut of chicken: For this recipe, boneless, skinless chicken breasts or thighs are best. They cook quickly and evenly, and they're tender and juicy.
  • Pound the chicken breasts or thighs thin: This will help them cook evenly and quickly. You can use a meat mallet or a rolling pin to do this.
  • Use a good quality hard cider: The flavor of the hard cider will come through in the sauce, so it's important to use a good one. Look for a hard cider that is flavorful and not too sweet.
  • Don't overcook the chicken: Chicken breasts and thighs cook quickly, so it's important not to overcook them. Otherwise, they will become dry and tough.
  • Serve the chicken immediately: Hard cider sauced chicken scaloppine is best served immediately after it is cooked. The sauce will thicken as it cools, so it's important to serve it while it is still hot.

Conclusion:

Hard cider sauced chicken scaloppine is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for a weeknight meal. The chicken is tender and juicy, and the sauce is flavorful and slightly sweet. Serve it with your favorite sides, such as mashed potatoes, roasted vegetables, or a salad.
