TURKEY SCALLOPINI WITH LEMON AND CAPERS



Turkey Scallopini With Lemon and Capers image

This is so delightful and really quite easy for such a deluxe taste. The cook time should be taken with a grain of salt as it will differ greatly depending on just how thick your cutlets actually are and whether you are browning and cooking the turkey cutlets on an electric or a gas stove [more time for electric, less for gas]. The amounts for the herbs and capers do not have to be precise; an approximation according to your likes works fine!

SCALOPPINE WITH ANY MEAT



Scaloppine With Any Meat image

You can use any kind of meat to make these dead-simple scaloppine - veal, turkey, chicken, pork, even beef if you can find pieces thin enough. Cook them quickly in butter over high heat, then turn those buttery pan drippings into your sauce, seasoning it with garlic and a squeeze of lemon or lime. This needs no further embellishment. But a handful of capers, sliced olives, chopped fresh herbs or toasted sliced almonds warmed in the butter at the last minute wouldn't do any harm, either.

CHICKEN SCALOPPINE WITH LEMON



Chicken Scaloppine With Lemon image

In order to make this chicken scaloppine, you'll first make a paillard, which just means you'll flatten the thighs by pounding them with a meat pounder, a wine bottle or the bottom of a heavy skillet. That broadens the surface area of the meat, which in turn browns and becomes crisp during cooking. It's delightful with this simple and bright lemon and white wine sauce.

Provided by Mark Bittman

Categories     dinner, quick, weekday, main course

Time 20m

Yield 12 servings

Number Of Ingredients 13

About 1 1/2 pounds boneless chicken thighs
Salt
Black pepper
1 cup all-purpose flour, or more as needed
1 1/2 cups fresh bread crumbs, or more as needed
3 eggs
2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil, plus more as needed
3 tablespoons butter, plus more as needed
1/4 cup dry white wine
1/2 cup chicken or vegetable stock
1/4 cup freshly squeezed lemon juice
1/4 cup chopped fresh parsley, plus more for garnish
Lemon wedges for serving

Steps:

  • Heat the oven to 200 degrees. Slice each chicken thigh open like a book and lay it flat between two sheets of plastic wrap. Using a meat pounder, a wine bottle or the bottom of a heavy skillet, pound each piece of chicken to 1/4-inch thickness. Put two large skillets over medium-high heat for a minute or 2. Meanwhile, sprinkle the chicken with salt and pepper and put the flour and bread crumbs on two plates or in two shallow bowls. Beat the eggs in another shallow bowl. Sprinkle all with salt and pepper.
  • Add 1 tablespoon each oil and butter to each skillet and swirl it around. When it is hot - a pinch of flour will sizzle - dredge a piece of the chicken in the flour, then dip it in the eggs and finally dredge it in the bread crumbs. Add the chicken piece to one of the pans, then repeat with another piece in the second pan. (You may be able to fit more than one paillard in each pan at a time.)
  • Cook the chicken, rotating occasionally and regulating the heat if necessary so it sizzles constantly but doesn't burn. When the pieces are brown, after about 2 minutes, turn them over.
  • Cook on the second side until the chicken is firm to the touch, 1 to 2 minutes. (Cut into one with a thin-bladed knife; the center should be white or slightly pink.) Transfer the chicken to a platter and put it in the oven. Wipe out the pan with a paper towel and repeat with the remaining chicken, adding more oil and butter to each skillet as necessary.
  • When all the chicken is cooked, turn off the heat under one of the skillets. Add a tablespoon or 2 more oil or butter to the other pan if it looks dry and sprinkle the fat with 2 teaspoons of the remaining flour. Cook over medium-high heat, stirring, for 3 to 4 minutes. Add the wine and stir and scrape the pan until the wine has reduced by about half, about 1 minute. Add the stock and lemon juice and cook, stirring, until the mixture is slightly thickened and a bit syrupy, another 3 to 4 minutes.
  • Add 1 tablespoon butter and swirl the pan around until it melts. Add any juices that have accumulated around the cooked chicken, along with the 1/4 cup parsley. Stir, taste and adjust the seasoning. Spoon the sauce over the chicken, garnish with parsley and serve with lemon wedges.

Tips:

  • To ensure the scaloppine is tender, use thinly sliced turkey cutlets. You can also pound the cutlets with a meat mallet to further tenderize them.
  • For a crispy coating, dredge the turkey cutlets in flour before searing them.
  • Use a large skillet to sear the cutlets so that they have plenty of room to brown.
  • Sear the cutlets over medium-high heat for 2-3 minutes per side, or until they are golden brown and cooked through.
  • Make sure the lemon sauce is simmering before adding the cooked cutlets. This will help to prevent the sauce from curdling.
  • Serve the scaloppine immediately over pasta, rice, or roasted vegetables.

Conclusion:

Turkey scaloppine with lemon sauce is a quick and easy weeknight meal that is sure to please the whole family. The tender turkey cutlets are coated in a crispy breading and then cooked in a flavorful lemon sauce. This dish can be served over pasta, rice, or roasted vegetables.
