Chicken Cutlet Parmesan Food

CHICKEN PARMESAN

Steps:

• Tomato sauce: Heat the oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium heat. Add the onion and cook until softened and lightly browned, about 5 minutes. Add the garlic and cook until fragrant, about 1 to 2 minutes. Add the tomatoes, vinegar, salt, and red pepper flakes; bring to a boil. Reduce the heat and simmer, covered, until the flavors are blended and the sauce begins to thicken slightly, about 10 minutes. Remove from the heat; stir in the basil.
• Chicken: Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F. Spray a 9 by 13-inch baking dish with cooking spray. Sprinkle the cutlets with the salt. Lightly beat the egg whites in a medium bowl. Combine the bread crumbs and Parmesan on a sheet of waxed paper. Spread the flour on another sheet of waxed paper. Working with 1 piece of chicken at a time, dip both sides into the flour, shaking off excess. Dip each piece into the egg whites, shaking off excess, and then press both sides into the breading to coat.
• Heat the oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Add the chicken (in batches, if necessary) and cook until browned, 3 to 4 minutes. Transfer the chicken, in 1 layer, to the baking dish. Spoon the sauce over the chicken then sprinkle with the cheese. Bake, covered loosely with a tent of foil, until the cheese is melted and the sauce is bubbly, about 12 to 15 minutes.

• Put the chips in a food processor and pulse until they are finely ground; set aside.
• Slice the chicken breasts in half horizontally so you have 4 thin chicken cutlets.
• Set up a breading station with 3 shallow dishes: Stir together the flour, chili powder and 1/2 teaspoon salt in the first dish. Beat the eggs in the second dish and add the tortilla chips to the third dish. Coat a cutlet in the flour. Dip in the egg, letting any excess drip off and then press into the tortilla chips. Transfer to a plate and bread the remaining cutlets.
• Heat 1/4 cup of the oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium heat until a piece of the breading sizzles when added to the oil. Add 2 breaded cutlets to the oil, making sure they don't touch each other. Fry until golden brown on both sides, 3 to 4 minutes per side. Remove to a paper towel-lined plate.

CHICKEN CUTLET PARMESAN

Steps:

• Using a meat tenderizer or a heavy skillet, pound chicken breasts between two sheets of plastic until flat, about 1/4 inch in thickness. Place milk, flour, eggs, and breadcrumbs in separate shallow baking dishes. Season eggs with a pinch of salt. Dip each breast in the following order: milk, flour (shake off excess), eggs, and breadcrumbs (press down firmly while coating with breadcrumbs).
• In a large skillet, melt butter with olive oil over medium-high heat until sizzling. Arrange chicken breasts in the pan without crowding, cooking in batches if necessary. Reduce the heat, and cook chicken until golden brown and juices run clear when poked with a sharp fork, 3 to 5 minutes per side. Remove to a baking sheet lined with paper towels; pat off excess oil.
• Place 1/2 cup of the warm tomato sauce in the bottom of a 9-by-13-by-2-inch baking dish. Add 3 cooked breasts to the baking dish; cover with 1/2 cup of the tomato sauce and half of the sliced mozzarella. Repeat with the remaining chicken breasts and sauce; top with mozzarella. Transfer to broiler, and broil until the cheese is melted and golden brown, about 5 minutes. Remove from the broiler, and serve immediately.

CHICKEN PARMESAN

Steps:

• Marinara Sauce: Trim root ends of the garlic cloves, then smash with the flat side of a knife. Peel off skins and set aside. In a 4-quart Dutch oven over high heat, add oil, followed by garlic. When the garlic begins to sizzle, add a pinch of salt. Stir and toast the garlic until deep golden brown, 3-4 minutes. Add red pepper flakes (optional, for heat), reduce temperature to low, and add tomatoes. Increase heat to medium, add two pinches of salt and two pinches of sugar, and bring sauce to a simmer, 10-12 minutes. When simmering, taste and adjust for seasoning. Turn off heat.In a large bowl, add two large sprigs of basil, then pour the sauce over the basil. Set aside to steep while making the chicken. (Makes 2 quarts. Once cool, remove and discard basil; store in an airtight container in the refrigerator up to 4-5 days or in the freezer up to 3 months).
• Chicken: Place chicken breast on a flat surface lined with parchment paper. Carefully slice in half horizontally, into 2 equal pieces. Repeat with remaining chicken breasts to make a total of 8 cutlets.Place 1 chicken cutlet into a 1-gallon zip-top plastic bag. Use a small heavy-bottomed pan or meat mallet to pound the cutlet until it's ¼-inch thick. Remove cutlet, set aside, and repeat with remaining cutlets.
• Breading: In a large bowl, add seasoned breadcrumbs, both cheeses, granulated garlic, dried oregano, potato starch, 1 teaspoon salt, and 13 grinds of pepper. Toss to combine, then set aside. In another large bowl, add flour. Season with 1 teaspoon salt and 6 grinds of pepper; mix to combine. In a third bowl, add 4 eggs and beat with a fork or whisk until combined. Season with 1 teaspoon salt and 6 grinds of pepper.
• One by one, dredge chicken cutlets in flour, shaking off excess flour. (Don't worry if the pounding has left some holes in the chicken-they'll soon be covered by breading and cheese!) Dip dredged chicken in the beaten egg, then into the breading mixture, carefully pressing the breading into the chicken so it adheres. Set breaded chicken on a rack fitted over a baking sheet until ready to fry. (Note: Chicken can be prepared to this point several hours in advance. Store the breaded cutlets in the refrigerator in an even layer, covered with plastic wrap or foil.)
• Fry chicken: In a cast-iron skillet over medium-high heat, add vegetable and olive oils. (There should be about ¼-inch of oil in the pan, so adjust amounts as needed.) Test the oil's temperature by adding a few drops of water: if the water sizzles right away, the oil is ready for frying. Gently lay the chicken into the oil away from you to avoid any splatters; the oil should reach a little more than halfway up the chicken. Let fry undisturbed for about 2 minutes. Use a spatula to check the underside of the cutlet for golden brown color. When it's ready to turn over, gently and carefully flip chicken away from you and cook the other side, about 2 more minutes. (Use a second spatula or spoon if necessary, but try to avoid using tongs, as they might tear the delicate crust.) Chicken is cooked all the way through when it's firm to the touch and both sides are golden brown. Drain fried cutlet on a baking sheet lined with paper towels, and sprinkle with salt while still hot. Repeat with remaining chicken cutlets, adding more oil as needed and keeping the temperature steady.
• Assembly: Preheat broiler. In a large bowl, combine the three cheeses. Place chicken cutlets on a baking sheet in an even layer. (Depending on oven size, you can do this in batches, or use several baking sheets.) Remove basil and garlic cloves from Marinara Sauce and discard. Spread each cutlet with ¼ cup of sauce, leaving the edges uncovered, then top with a generous ¼ cup of cheese mixture. Place in the oven on a rack about 6 inches from the heat source. Don't step away-you don't want the cheese to burn! Broil 1 minute, checking after 30 seconds, and remove when cheese is fully melted and bubbly. Garnish with freshly torn basil leaves and serve immediately.

• Spoon a thin layer of sauce over the bottom of a 9-by-13-inch baking pan. Sprinkle one-third of the Parmesan over sauce. Place half of the cutlets over the Parmesan and top with half the mozzarella pieces. Top with half the remaining sauce, sprinkle with another third of the Parmesan, and repeat layering, ending with a final layer of sauce and Parmesan.

Bring to a simmer; simmer until sauce thickens a bit and flavors meld, 10 to 12 minutes. Cover and keep warm.

Wash and dry the wire rack and return to cookie sheet. As the cutlets saute, cook pasta in boiling water according to package directions.
• Transfer cutlets to clean wire rack over cookie sheet. Top each with a portion of the cheeses. Broil cutlets, 4 to 5 inches from heat source, until cheese melts and is spotty brown.
