Forevermamas Chicken Or Turkey Cutlets With Balsamic Vinegar Food

APPLE BALSAMIC GRILLED CHICKEN BREAST RECIPE

Steps:

• Saute apple and onion in pan with the olive oil for 5 minutes or until softened. Pour in chicken stock, add rosemary and balsamic vinegar and bring to boil. Reduce heat and simmer (8 minutes) until liquid reduces down to a sauce like texture.
• Layout chicken breasts on a plastic wrap covered solid surface and pound to even thickness with a meat mallet (aprox 1/2 - 3/4 inch). Preheat your Foreman Grill for about 5 minutes. Brush chicken lightly with olive oil and add salt/pepper to taste. Grill meat for 3-6 minutes until juices run clear and internal temp of 165 degrees. Remove from grill and let sit for 5 minutes. Pour sauce over chicken and serve immediately.

BALSAMIC CHICKEN

Steps:

• Whisk together the balsamic vinegar, chicken broth, sugar, garlic, and Italian seasoning in a bowl, place the chicken breasts in the marinade, and marinate for 10 minutes on each side.
• Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Remove the chicken from the marinade and reserve the marinade. Place the chicken in the heated pan and cook until they start to brown and are no longer pink inside, about 7 minutes per side. Pour the marinade into the skillet, and cook until it thickens slightly, turning the chicken breasts over once or twice, about 5 minutes.

CHICKEN BREASTS WITH BALSAMIC VINEGAR AND GARLIC

• Add the garlic. Turn the chicken breasts and scatter the mushrooms over them. Continue frying, shaking the skillet and stirring the mushrooms. Cook for about 3 minutes, then add the vinegar, broth, bay leaf and thyme. Cover tightly and simmer over medium low heat for 10 minutes, turning occasionally.
• Transfer the chicken to a warm serving platter and cover with foil. Set aside. Continue simmering the sauce, uncovered, over medium high heat for about 7 minutes. Swirl in the butter or margarine and discard the bay leaf. Pour this mushroom sauce mixture over the chicken and serve.

FOREVERMAMA'S CHICKEN OR TURKEY CUTLETS WITH BALSAMIC VINEGAR

Steps:

• Rinse chicken or turkey breasts in a colander, let drain.
• Mix vinegar and honey until honey dissolves. Set aside.
• Season bread crumbs with salt and pepper. Dredge chicken or turkey breasts in the Italian seasoned bread crumbs, pressing well to make them adhere.
• Heat a skillet over medium heat. Add 1 - 2 tablespoons olive oil until it is hot.
• Saute the chicken cutlets for 1 minute per side (note that the cutlets won't be cooked all the way through, because they will cook later in recipe). Transfer them to a platter.
• Add the remaining oil and garlic to the pan and cook just until garlic is golden (garlic burns easily, so be careful or it will impart a bitter taste).
• Add the white wine and vermouth. Boil the mixture until sauce is reduced by half (more or less).
• Add reserved honey and vinegar mixture and cook until syrupy. Taste for seasoning.
• Place the cutlets back in the pan and simmer for 3 - 4 minutes more or until completely cooked. Garnish with parsley.
• A Little Bit of a Tip: If you prefer extra sauce, just increase the sauce ingredients. This sauce is scrumptious over rice.

Add broth mixture; cover and cook 5 minutes. Uncover, increase heat to high, and cook, stirring occasionally, until pears are tender and liquid is almost evaporated, 3 to 5 minutes. Return turkey to skillet, along with any juices. Add thyme, toss to combine, and serve.
