CHICKEN SCALOPPINI (PAULA DEEN)



Chicken Scaloppini (Paula Deen) image

This is VERY good! I must tell you, tho, the original recipe calls for 4 sticks of butter in the sauce! To be fair, the episode she made this on WAS called "Everything's Better With Butter." LOL I read thru many reviews on the other site and almost all cut the butter back, some even to 1 and 1/4 sticks with no problems. I used 2 sticks of butter and also used bacon instead of pancetta, out of personal preference. Dried or fresh herbs, such as tarragon, thyme, basil, oregano, even an Italian seasoning can be used to season while sauteeing the chicken. I also use the artichokes packed in water, not the oil. The last time I made it, I added some minced garlic while sauteeing the veggies and a bit more lemon (to taste) to the sauce. That said, this is one helluva a good dish!

ITALIAN CHICKEN STICKS



Italian Chicken Sticks image

Yield yields about 3-3 1/2 dozen

Number Of Ingredients 11

1 cup seasoned breadcrumbs
1/2 cup freshly grated Parmesan
1 1/2 teaspoons dried thyme
1 1/2 teaspoons dried basil
1 teaspoon dried oregano
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon garlic powder
Pinch of ground red pepper
8 boneless chicken breast halves, cut into 1/2-inch strips
1/2 cup (1 stick) melted butter
Marinara sauce or honey mustard for dipping

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 400 degrees. In a pie plate or platter, combine the breadcrumbs, Parmesan, thyme, basil, oregano, salt, garlic powder, and red pepper. Dip the chicken strips in the melted butter, then dredge them in the breadcrumb mixture. Place the chicken strips in a single layer on a lightly greased baking sheet. Bake for 20 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through. Serve the chicken sticks hot with marinara sauce, or serve hot or cold with honey mustard.

Tips:

  • Choose high-quality chicken: Use boneless, skinless chicken breasts or thighs for the best results.
  • Tenderize the chicken: Pounding the chicken breasts or thighs with a meat mallet will help to tenderize them and make them more evenly cooked.
  • Use a flavorful breading: The breading is what gives the chicken sticks their flavor, so make sure to use a mixture of herbs, spices, and breadcrumbs that you enjoy.
  • Don't overcrowd the pan: When frying the chicken sticks, don't overcrowd the pan or the oil temperature will drop and the chicken will not cook evenly.
  • Cook the chicken sticks until they are golden brown: This will ensure that they are cooked through and have a crispy exterior.
  • Serve the chicken sticks with your favorite dipping sauce: Some popular choices include marinara sauce, ranch dressing, or honey mustard.

Conclusion:

Paula Deen's Italian Chicken Sticks are a delicious and easy-to-make appetizer or main course. With a flavorful breading and a crispy exterior, these chicken sticks are sure to be a hit with your family and friends. Serve them with your favorite dipping sauce and enjoy!
