Time 1h15m

Yield 6

Number Of Ingredients 21

2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
2 tablespoons cornstarch
¼ teaspoon baking soda
¼ teaspoon baking powder
2 tablespoons low-sodium soy sauce
1 tablespoon dry sherry
2 tablespoons water
1 teaspoon vegetable oil
1 dash sesame oil
1 pound skinless, boneless chicken breast meat - cubed
1 cup chicken broth
1 cup white sugar
2 tablespoons distilled white vinegar
2 tablespoons dark soy sauce
2 tablespoons sesame oil
1 teaspoon chile paste
1 clove garlic, minced
¼ cup cornstarch
½ cup water
1 quart olive oil for frying
2 tablespoons toasted sesame seeds

Steps:

  • Sift flour, 2 tablespoons cornstarch, baking soda, and baking powder into a bowl. Pour in low-sodium soy sauce, sherry, 2 tablespoons water, vegetable oil, and a dash of sesame oil; stir until smooth. Stir in chicken until coated with the batter, then cover, and refrigerate for 20 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, bring chicken broth, sugar, vinegar, dark soy sauce, sesame oil, chile paste, and garlic to a boil in a saucepan over high heat. Dissolve 1/4 cup cornstarch into 1/2 cup of water, and stir into boiling sauce. Simmer until the sauce thickens and turns clear, about 2 minutes. Reduce heat to low, and keep sauce warm.
  • Heat olive oil in a deep fryer or large saucepan to a temperature of 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).
  • Drop in the battered chicken pieces, a few at a time, and fry until they turn golden brown and float to the top of the oil, 3 to 4 minutes. Drain on a paper towel lined plate. To serve, place fried chicken pieces onto a serving platter, and pour the hot sauce overtop. Sprinkle with toasted sesame seeds to garnish.

THE BEST CHICKEN CUTLETS



The Best Chicken Cutlets image

When we set out to create the best cutlets, we sought perfectly tender chicken that was flavorful and juicy -- not tasteless and dry -- with a crisp, breaded exterior that stayed put and didn't get soggy. After trying different methods, we found that a mix of panko and Pecorino Romano creates the salty, crunchy crust we crave, while dried spices in both the flour and breadcrumb mixtures ensure that our cutlets are never bland.

Time 35m

Yield 4 to 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 12

4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts (about 2 pounds)
1 cup all-purpose flour
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
2 teaspoons granulated garlic
2 teaspoons onion powder
1 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes, optional
3 large eggs
2 1/2 cups panko breadcrumbs
1/2 cup grated Pecorino-Romano
1 stick (8 tablespoons) unsalted butter
1/2 cup olive oil
Lemon wedges, for serving, optional

Steps:

  • Place a wire rack inside a rimmed baking sheet. Preheat the oven to 200 degrees F.
  • Cut the chicken breasts in half lengthwise making 8 roughly equal pieces. (They should look like large chicken tenders.) Place one sheet of plastic wrap on a clean cutting board. Put one chicken piece in the center of the plastic wrap and top with another sheet. Pound the chicken with the flat side of a meat mallet, starting in the center and working your way to the edges, until the chicken is 1/4 inch thick. Transfer to the prepared baking sheet. Repeat with the remaining chicken.
  • Set up a standard breading station: mix the flour, 1 tablespoon kosher salt, 1 teaspoon granulated garlic, 1 teaspoon onion powder and 1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper and 1/2 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes if using, if using, in a shallow dish.
  • Beat the eggs with 1 tablespoon water in a second shallow dish.
  • Mix the panko, Pecorino-Romano, 1 tablespoon kosher salt, the remaining 1 teaspoon granulated garlic, the remaining 1 teaspoon onion powder, 1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper and the remaining 1/2 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes if using, in a third shallow dish.
  • 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 it on both sides. Let the excess egg drip off, then press the chicken firmly into the breadcrumb mixture, turning to coat on both sides and packing the crumbs into any crevices. Transfer the chicken back to the baking sheet and repeat with the remaining chicken pieces.
  • Line a clean baking sheet with a clean wire rack. Heat 2 tablespoons of the unsalted butter and 2 tablespoons of the olive oil in a large skillet over medium-low heat. Add 2 pieces of chicken and cook until the breading is golden-brown and crisp and the chicken is just cooked through, 3 to 5 minutes per side. Transfer to the clean wire rack, season with salt and hold in the oven at 200 degrees F to keep warm. Wipe the skillet clean and repeat with the remaining butter, olive oil and chicken, making 4 batches in total.
  • Serve with lemon wedges, if desired.

Time 45m

Number Of Ingredients 8

1/2 cup unbleached all-purpose flour
Kosher salt and freshly ground pepper
3 large eggs
3 cups panko breadcrumbs
1/4 cup white sesame seeds, toasted
1 tablespoon dried thyme
1 1/2 pounds boneless, skinless chicken thighs, formed into cutlets
Safflower oil, for frying (about 1 1/4 cups)

Steps:

  • Whisk flour with a pinch each of salt and pepper in a shallow dish. Whisk eggs in a separate dish. Stir together panko, sesame seeds, and thyme in a third shallow dish. Season chicken with salt and pepper, then dredge in flour, shaking off excess. Dip in eggs, allowing excess to drip off, and coat with panko mixture, patting to adhere.

Time 25m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 17

4 chicken cutlets
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
1/2 cup all-purpose flour
1/4 cup milk
2 large eggs, beaten
1 1/4 cups panko breadcrumbs
3 tablespoons everything bagel seasoning
3 tablespoons salted butter
3 tablespoons olive oil
1/2 cup olive oil
1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
2 teaspoons honey
2 lemons, juiced (about 1/4 cup)
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
4 cups mixed greens
1 cup halved cherry tomatoes
2 lemons, halved or sliced, for garnish

Steps:

  • For the chicken: Heat a large skillet over medium heat.
  • Season the chicken with 1/2 teaspoon salt and 1/4 teaspoon pepper. Add the flour to a shallow bowl. Whisk together the milk and eggs in a second bowl. Mix the panko and everything bagel seasoning in a third bowl.
  • Bread the chicken by dredging each cutlet first in the flour, shaking off the excess. Next, dip into the egg wash, then cover in the seasoned panko.

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.

Provided by Greg Lofts

Categories     Food & Cooking     Ingredients     Meat & Poultry     Chicken     Chicken Breast Recipes

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.

Tips:

  • Use boneless, skinless chicken breasts or thighs for tender and juicy cutlets.
  • Marinate the chicken in a mixture of soy sauce, rice wine, sesame oil, and cornstarch for at least 30 minutes to infuse flavor and help the coating adhere.
  • Make sure the chicken is dry before coating it in the cornstarch and flour mixture. This will help the coating stay crispy.
  • Heat the oil to 375°F (190°C) before frying the chicken. This will help the cutlets cook evenly and prevent them from absorbing too much oil.
  • Fry the chicken in small batches to avoid overcrowding the pan and lowering the oil temperature.
  • Cook the chicken until it is golden brown and crispy, about 3-4 minutes per side.
  • Drain the chicken on paper towels to remove excess oil.
  • Serve the chicken immediately with your favorite dipping sauce, such as sweet and sour sauce or plum sauce.

Conclusion:

Sesame chicken cutlets are a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for a quick weeknight meal or a party appetizer. With a few simple ingredients and a little bit of time, you can create a flavorful and crispy dish that will be enjoyed by everyone. So next time you're looking for a tasty and satisfying meal, give sesame chicken cutlets a try!
