Chicken Scaloppine With Prosciutto Mozzarella And Marsala Food

CHICKEN MARSALA

Steps:

• Put the chicken breasts side by side on a cutting board and lay a piece of plastic wrap over them; pound with a flat meat mallet, until they are about 1/4-inch thick. Put some flour in a shallow platter and season with a fair amount of salt and pepper; mix with a fork to distribute evenly.
• Heat the oil over medium-high flame in a large skillet. When the oil is nice and hot, dredge both sides of the chicken cutlets in the seasoned flour, shaking off the excess. Slip the cutlets into the pan and fry for 5 minutes on each side until golden, turning once - do this in batches if the pieces don't fit comfortably in the pan. Remove the chicken to a large platter in a single layer to keep warm.
• Lower the heat to medium and add the prosciutto to the drippings in the pan, saute for 1 minute to render out some of the fat. Now, add the mushrooms and saute until they are nicely browned and their moisture has evaporated, about 5 minutes; season with salt and pepper. Pour the Marsala in the pan and boil down for a few seconds to cook out the alcohol. Add the chicken stock and simmer for a minute to reduce the sauce slightly. Stir in the butter and return the chicken to the pan; simmer gently for 1 minute to heat the chicken through. Season with salt and pepper and garnish with chopped parsley before serving.

CHICKEN SCALOPPINI MARSALA WITH MUSHROOMS RECIPE - (4.4/5)

Steps:

• Step 1 - Steeping raisins in wine: In a small sauté pan or saucepan, combine the wine and raisins. Bring to a boil over high heat; then, turn off the heat and set aside to steep. Step 2 - Flattening the scaloppini: Coat the chicken breasts with a little oil. Place 2 halves, spaced apart, in a large heavy-duty plastic bag. With a meat mallet or the bottom of a heavy small saucepan, gently flatten the pieces to scaloppini 1⁄4 to 1⁄3 inch thick. Repeat with the remaining halves. Step 3 - Dusting the scaloppini: Arrange the scaloppini on parchment paper. Season on both sides with salt and pepper. Dust very lightly on both sides with flour. Step 4 - Cooking the scaloppini: Heat 2 tablespoons oil in a heavy large skillet over high heat. Add scaloppini, working in batches to avoid overcrowding. Cook until golden brown, 2 to 3 minutes per side, turning once and adding a little butter. Transfer to a platter. Repeat with the remaining oil and chicken. Step 5 - Sautéing the mushrooms: Spoon fat from the skillet. Add the shallots and garlic. Sauté until the shallots begin to soften, about 2 minutes. Add the mushrooms, 2 tablespoons butter, salt and pepper, and the sage. Sauté until the mushrooms are browned and tender, 3 to 4 minutes. Step 6 - Making the sauce: Add the wine and, if you like, the raisins. Cook, stirring and scraping to deglaze the pan deposits, until the liquid reduces by half, 2 to 3 minutes. Remove the sage. Stir in the hoisin and simmer to thicken slightly. Stir in the cream and bring to a simmer. Step 7 - Saucing the scaloppini: Return the scaloppini to the pan. Simmer about 1 minute to rewarm them while stirring with a spoon to coat them with the sauce. Sprinkle with some parsley. If the sauce looks too thick, thin with a little stock, broth, or water. Step 8 - Serving the scaloppini: Divide the chicken scaloppini among serving plates. Spoon the sauce over and around the chicken. Sprinkle with more parsley.

CHICKEN SCALOPPINE WITH PROSCIUTTO, MOZZARELLA AND MARSALA

Steps:

• Place chicken breasts between pieces of waxed paper and pound them with a mallet until about 1/4" thick.
• Lay out slices of prosciutto side by side on counter, with the length of the slice facing away from you.
• Place one of the chicken cutlets on top of 3 or 4 prosciutto slices. Fold the upper and lower edges of the prosciutto slices in and over the chicken cutlet. The cutlet will be partially covered by the prosciutto. Flip the cutlet over and it will be totally covered. Repeat with all 4 cutlets. (That seemed like a lot of work to me. I cut a pocket in the chicken cutlets and inserted diced prosciutto. Turned out just fine.).
• Break eggs into a wide shallow bowl and beat well.
• Place enough flour to dust the chicken in another wide shallow bowl.
• Dip each cutlet into the egg, coating well. Let excess egg drip off and then dip lightly in flour.
• In two 8" saute pans, place 3 tbl butter (I used half that amount) and heat over medium heat.
• When butter is foaming, place 2 cutlets in each pan.
• Cook the cutlets until golden on the outside and just done inside (about 2 or 3 minutes per side).
• Preheat broiler.
• When chicken is done, remove cutlets to broiler pan.
• Top each piece with one tablespoon (or more) of parmesan and then a slice of mozzarella.
• Place under broiler until cheese has completely melted and browned slightly.
• Meanwhile, make the sauce. Spill butter out of saute pans and wipe them lightly with a paper towel. (I didn't do this and used the pan juices and butter in the sauce.).
• Return pans to high heat and add 1/4 cup marsala and 1/4 cup chicken stock to each pan.
• Boil quickly until only 3 or 4 tbl of liquid is left in each pan.
• Turn heat to low and place 2 tbl of butter in each pan (again, I used less). Swirl with a whisk until a creamy brown sauce is formed.
• Divide cutlets between 2 plates and pour marsala sauce over and around them.
• Serve immediately.

THE BEST CHICKEN MARSALA

Steps:

• Dredge chicken tenderloins, flattened a little with your hand before dredging, in breadcrumbs and saute in 2 tablespoons olive oil (just enough olive oil to cover bottom of the skillet) in a large skillet over medium low heat until lightly browned and beginning to cook on edges, then turn and brown other side. Then turn off heat and leave in the skillet until other ingredients are done.

PORK SCALOPPINE WITH MUSHROOMS AND MARSALA

Steps:

• Trim the pork loin, leaving only a thin layer of fat, and cut it crosswise into twelve equal slices. Using a meat mallet (or other heavy implement), flatten and spread the slices into scaloppine about 1/4 inch thick. Season lightly on both sides with salt and freshly ground pepper. Dredge the scaloppine in the flour, coating both sides, and shake off the excess.
• Meanwhile, put 4 tablespoons of the olive oil and 2 tablespoons of the butter in the skillet, set over medium-high heat. When the butter begins to bubble, lay four or more scaloppine in the skillet-as many as can lie flat without crowding-and let them sizzle in place until the underside is opaque and tinged with brown, about 3 minutes. Flip them over and color the second side for a couple of minutes; then lift out the slices, let the fat drain off, and put them on a platter. Add a bit more olive oil and/or butter to the skillet if it seems dry, and fry the rest of the scaloppine in the same way.
• When all of the pork is browned, pour off the frying oil but leave any crusty caramelization in the skillet. Put in the remaining 2 tablespoons of olive oil and 3 tablespoons of butter, and return to medium-high heat. When the butter is foaming, drop in the shallots and sage leaves, and cook, stirring, for a minute. Scatter the sliced mushrooms in the pan, season with 1/2 teaspoon salt, and stir continuously as the mushrooms sizzle and start to release their juices. Cook, tossing and stirring, until the moisture has evaporated and the mushroom slices are shrunken, soft, and caramelized, 6 minutes or more.
• Pour in the Marsala, raise the heat, and stir until it boils. Let the wine bubble and reduce for a minute or two, then stir in the stock. Bring to a boil, and cook at a gentle bubbling pace until the sauce is slightly viscous but loose, about 5 minutes. Season to taste with salt and freshly ground pepper.
• One by one, slide the scaloppine into the simmering sauce, and pour in any juices accumulated on the platter. Shake the pan, spoon sauce over the scaloppine, and flip them over once or twice, until they are heated through and glistening with sauce on both sides. If the sauce is too dense to coat all the meat, loosen it with a bit of stock. Turn off the heat, sprinkle the parsley all over, and serve.
