Herbed Chicken Cutlet
Serves 4
1 cup flour
2 large eggs
2 tbsp water or milk
2 cups panko breadcrumbs
2 tbsp chopped fresh parsley leaves
1 tbsp chopped fresh oregano leaves
1 tbsp chopped fresh thyme leaves
4 6-oz chicken breasts, butterflied into two pieces
Kosher salt, freshly ground black pepper, and red pepper flakes
1 ½ - 2 cups high heat cooking oil
Lemon wedges, for serving
1. Place the flour in a shallow bowl or pie pan and season with salt and pepper. Crack the eggs into a separate shallow bowl, season with salt and pepper, and whisk in the water or milk. Mix the panko and herbs in a separate shallow bowl or pie pan.
2. Place each chicken cutlet between two layers of plastic wrap and gently pound them out to a ¼” thickness with the flat side of a meat tenderizer. Season chicken on both sides with salt, pepper and red pepper. Working one at a time, dredge each piece of chicken lightly in flour and shake off excess, Then dip into the egg mixture, coating both sides; lift and let excess egg drip off. Then transfer to the panko and gently pat the breadcrumbs into the cutlet. Transfer to a parchment lined tray and repeat with remaining chicken.
3. Place a large skillet over medium high heat and add ½” of oil; prepare a paper towel lined rack over a tray. When oil is heated to 375 F (use a meat thermometer to check), add 2 pieces of chicken to the pan, laying them away from you into the oil to prevent oil splatter. Fry cutlets until deeply golden on both sides, flipping halfway through, about 3-5 minutes per side; use a thermometer to check that chicken has reached 165 F. Remove to the rack and repeat with remaining cutlets. Serve with lemon wedges.
Green Garlic Pesto
¼ cup pine nuts or pumpkin seeds
4 green garlic stalks, whites and light green only, chopped
kosher salt, freshly ground black pepper, and red pepper flakes
1 lemon, for zest and juice
1 cup packed fresh basil leaves
¼ cup packed fresh parsley leaves
⅓ - ½ cup good quality olive oil
3 - 4 tbsp freshly grated Parmigiano Reggiano or Pecorino Romano
1. Combine the pine nuts and green garlic in the bowl of a food processor and season with salt, freshly ground black pepper, and red pepper flakes. Pulse until chopped; remove lid and scrape sides. Add herbs, lemon zest, and a small drop of lemon juice; process until finely minced.
2. Slowly pour in about ⅓ cup of olive oil while pulsing the machine just a few times. Add 3 tbsp cheese and pulse a couple times until mixed. Taste and adjust, adding more seasoning, cheese, lemon juice, or olive oil, as desired.
