CREAMY PARMESAN GARLIC CHICKEN

Steps:

• Season chicken with salt and pepper. Heat olive oil in a large heavy skillet or pan. Add chicken to the pan and cook for 5-6 minute per side or until the outside is golden and the chicken is cooked through (cooking times will vary depending on the thickness of the chicken breasts).
• Remove chicken from the pan, reduce heat to low-medium, and add garlic; stir for 30 seconds. Add the cream, Italian seasoning, and parmesan cheese. Stir to combine. Stir in 1 cup of chopped spinach if desired. Simmer for another 2-3 minutes.
• Return chicken to the pan and simmer for another minute then turn off heat. Spoon sauce over chicken. Serve with pasta or veggies.

CREAMY PARMESAN CHICKEN

Steps:

• Make the coating: In a shallow plate combine the parmesan cheese, breadcrumbs, salt, pepper, garlic powder, and smoked paprika. Dredge the chicken breasts through the cheese mixture and shake off any excess.
• Cook the chicken: In a large skillet, melt 2 tablespoons of the butter over low heat. Add the chicken breasts and cook until golden on each side and cooked through, about 5 to 6 minutes per side. If you notice the chicken browns too quickly and doesn't cook in the middle, lower the heat and cook slowly. Transfer cooked chicken to a plate.
• Make the sauce: If there's too much parmesan cheese left in the bottom of the skillet, wipe clean with a paper towel. Add the remaining butter to the skillet and add the garlic, parsley, Italian seasoning and red pepper flakes. Cook for about 30 seconds until the garlic is aromatic. Deglaze the pan with the chicken broth. Stir in the heavy cream. Taste for seasoning and adjust with salt and pepper as necessary.
• Finish and serve: Return the chicken back to the skillet and simmer for another minute to warm up the chicken. Turn off the heat and spoon some of the sauce over the chicken. Serve immediately with pasta or steamed veggies.

CHICKEN PAILLARD WITH CREAMY PARMESAN SALAD

Steps:

• For the chicken:
• Begin by pounding out the chicken breast gently between 2 pieces of plastic wrap.
• Prepare a breading station with flour, whisked eggs and milk, and panko crumbs. Season all with salt and pepper. Coat the breasts in flour, egg then panko. Lay the coated breasts out on a flat tray and refrigerate to let the crust dry out (about 10 minutes) this will ensure there is less moisture and less chance your coating will break when frying.
• Shallow fry the paillard in hot oil for approximately 2 to 3 minutes per side depending on how thick the breasts are. Drain well, season with salt and set aside when done.
• For the dressing:
• Put the anchovies, egg yolks, garlic, lemon juice, and water into a blender and process for 30 seconds until the mixture is smooth. With the blender running, pour the olive oil in slowly for the dressing to emulsify. Stir in the Parmesan, season with salt and a couple of grinds of black pepper; set aside. (Refrigerate the dressing if you will not be using it right away.)
• Prepare the salad by splitting the grape tomatoes in half through the middle lengthwise, mixing all ingredients in a large mixing bowl. Add the dressing and toss the salad well.
• To serve lay the warm, crispy chicken paillard on the base of the plate and top with the salad. Garnish with shaved parmesan cheese, a wedge of lemon and a drizzle of olive oil.
• *RAW EGG WARNING
• Food Network Kitchens suggest caution in consuming raw and lightly-cooked eggs
• Due to the slight risk of Salmonella or other food-borne illness. To reduce this risk, we recommend you use only fresh, properly-refrigerated, clean, grade A or AA eggs with intact shells, and avoid contact between the yolks or whites and the shell.
