Best 3 Mock Abalone Recipes

MOCK ABALONE

Steps:

• Pound chicken breasts between 2 pieces of plastic wrap until very thin. Place pounded chicken breasts into a non-reactive dish. Pour the clam juice over the breasts, marinade and refrigerate for 8 - 10 hours. Remove chicken from the clam juice. Saute chicken breasts in butter quickly...just until tender and slightly browned. Remove from heat and sprinkle with chopped parsley, paprika, and salt and pepper to taste. Serve immediately. Garnish with lemon wedges and a sprig of parsley. Serve with a nice Chardonnay.

PHONEY ABALONE

Steps:

• If the breasts are thick slice them in half lengthwise and then place between sheets of waxed paper and pound them thin.
• Place the pounded breasts in a closed container and pour in the clam nector and garlic.
• Cover and refrigerate for 36-48 hrs making sure that all of the chicken is covered in the nector.
• If not, then turn the chicken 3 or four times during marinating.
• Drain well just before cooking, dip in slightly beaten eggs and bread crumbs and lightly fry in the butter/oil.

TRADITIONAL ABALONE

Steps:

• Slice the abalone into 1/4 inch thick steaks, making sure to trim off any meat that is not white, as this part tends to be very tough. Place the steaks on a cutting board, and pound with a meat tenderizer until pliable.
• In a small bowl, stir together the ketchup, horseradish, and lime juice to make a cocktail sauce. Refrigerate until ready to use.
• Heat olive oil in a large heavy skillet over medium heat for about 5 minutes. Whisk eggs and milk together in a shallow dish. Place bread crumbs in a large resealable plastic bag. Dip the abalone steaks in egg, then place in the bag with the crumbs and shake to coat.
• Fry coated abalone for 3 to 5 minutes on each side, until golden brown. Remove to paper towels to drain. Place on a platter, and garnish with lime slices and parsley. Serve with the cocktail sauce for dipping.
