Time 40m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 14

1 cup buttermilk
1/3 cup sour cream
2 tablespoons chopped dill
2 1/2 teaspoons chopped chives
2 1/2 teaspoons garlic powder
2 1/2 teaspoons onion powder
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
2 boneless skinless chicken breasts (about 1 1/4 pounds)
1 cup all-purpose flour
2 large eggs
1 1/2 cups panko breadcrumbs
6 tablespoons canola or vegetable oil, plus more for drizzling
2 romaine hearts, roughly chopped
1/4 cup grated Parmesan, plus more for topping

Steps:

  • Whisk 2/3 cup of the buttermilk, the sour cream, dill, chives, 1/2 teaspoon of the garlic powder, 1/2 teaspoon of the onion powder, 1 teaspoon salt and a few grinds of pepper in a medium bowl until smooth. Refrigerate until ready to use.
  • Cut the chicken breasts in half through the middle so that it looks like you are opening up a book, making 4 roughly equal pieces (they should look like thinner chicken breasts). Place a chicken breast between 2 pieces of plastic wrap, drizzle with some canola oil to keep the plastic wrap from sticking, and pound out to 1/4-inch thick. Repeat with the other 3 chicken breasts. Sprinkle each breast with salt and pepper.
  • Set up a standard breading station: Mix the flour, 2 teaspoons salt and a few grinds of pepper in a shallow dish or pie plate. Beat the eggs with the remaining 1/3 cup buttermilk, 1/2 teaspoon salt and a couple grinds of pepper in a second shallow dish or pie plate. Mix the panko, remaining 2 teaspoons garlic powder, remaining 2 teaspoons onion powder, 2 teaspoons salt and a generous amount of pepper in a third shallow dish or pie plate.
  • Dredge one piece of chicken in the flour mixture, turning to coat evenly. Shake off any excess then dip into the egg mixture, turning to fully coat both sides. Let the excess egg drip off, then press firmly into the breadcrumb mixture, turning to coat on both sides and packing the crumbs into any crevices. Transfer the chicken to a baking sheet and repeat with the remaining pieces.
  • Line a clean baking sheet with paper towels or a rack. Heat the oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add 2 pieces of chicken and cook until the breading is golden brown and crisp and the chicken is just cooked through, 2 to 3 minutes per side. Transfer to the baking sheet lined with paper towels or a rack. Sprinkle with salt while the chicken is still hot. Wipe the skillet clean if necessary and repeat with more oil and chicken.
  • Toss the romaine with the buttermilk ranch, Parmesan and a large pinch of salt. Serve the chicken alongside the salad, sprinkle with more Parmesan if desired.

CRISPY RANCH CHICKEN CUTLETS

Provided by Elena Besser

Categories     main-dish

Time 30m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 15

3 radishes
3 Persian cucumbers, or any small cucumber
3 medium tricolor carrots
Kosher salt and freshly cracked black pepper
1 lemon
1 shallot, minced
1/4 cup olive oil
Two 5- to 6-ounce boneless, skinless chicken breasts
1/2 cup all-purpose flour
1 packet ranch seasoning
2 large eggs
1 1/2 cups panko breadcrumbs
1/3 cup canola oil
1 bunch dill
1 bunch parsley

Steps:

  • Thinly slice the radishes, cucumbers and carrots lengthwise using a mandoline or a very sharp knife. Place in a large bowl, sprinkle with salt and pepper and set aside.
  • Zest and juice the lemon. Combine the zest, juice and shallot in a mason jar or other jar with a tightly fitting lid and add salt and pepper to taste. Give it a good mix, then add the olive oil. Screw on the lid and shake to combine. Set aside.
  • Pat the chicken breasts dry. Using a sharp knife, slice each chicken breast in two horizontally so you have a total of 4 thin cutlets.
  • Now it's time to make your dredging station. Get out three pie pans, shallow bowls or plates with deep sides. Place the flour and ranch seasoning in one pie plate and whisk to combine. Crack the eggs in the second bowl, add 2 tablespoons of water and whisk to combine. Place the panko in the final pie pan.
  • Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Working in an assembly line, place a chicken cutlet in the flour mixture and turn to coat both sides; tap off any excess. Place the cutlet in the egg wash and coat both sides. Finally, coat in breadcrumbs and place on the baking sheet. Repeat with the remaining cutlets.
  • Heat the canola oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Once the oil is shiny, add the chicken cutlets and cook until golden and cooked through, about 3 minutes per side. Place on a cooling rack to drain off any excess oil and keep the cutlets nice and crispy.
  • Drain off any excess water from the veggies and pat them dry with a paper towel. Add 1 cup
  • fresh parsley leaves and 1/2 cup dill leaves. Drizzle in the lemon dressing and toss to combine.
  • Congrats, it's time to plate! Place each cutlet on a plate, top with veggies and enjoy!

Tips:

  • For a crispy coating, use a mixture of flour, breadcrumbs, and Parmesan cheese. You can also add herbs and spices to the coating for extra flavor.
  • To keep the chicken moist, pound it thin before cooking. This will help it cook evenly and prevent it from drying out.
  • To prevent the chicken from sticking to the pan, make sure the oil is hot before adding the chicken. You can also use a non-stick pan for easy cleanup.
  • Cook the chicken over medium heat until it is golden brown and cooked through. Do not overcrowd the pan, or the chicken will not cook evenly.
  • Serve the chicken with your favorite sides, such as roasted vegetables, mashed potatoes, or a salad.

Conclusion:

Ranch chicken cutlets are a delicious and easy-to-make meal that can be enjoyed by the whole family.
