FAMOUS LEMON AND BASIL CHICKEN
Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. Place the chicken in a baking dish; sprinkle both sides with salt and pepper and arrange skin side up. Loosen the skin from each chicken breast and slip a basil leaf between the skin and the meat. Add the garlic to the baking dish. Place a slice of lemon on top of each piece of chicken. Drizzle with oil. Bake, basting occasionally with pan juices and turning the chicken and the baking dish occasionally so the chicken browns evenly, 35 to 40 minutes. If using a whole chicken, the baking time will be about 50 minutes. To serve, place a browned lemon slice and garlic clove on top of each portion of chicken.

Steps:
- Spread 1/4 cup flour on a large plate. Season the chicken with salt and pepper, then dredge in the flour and shake off the excess. Heat a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Add the olive oil and heat until shimmering, then add the chicken and cook until golden and almost cooked through, 5 to 6 minutes per side.
- Push the chicken to the edges of the skillet, add the shallot and basil stems to the middle and cook until softened but not browned, about 1 minute. Stir in the remaining 1 tablespoon flour and cook 1 minute. Add the chicken broth and lemon juice and bring to a boil, scraping up any browned bits. Reduce the heat and simmer, turning the chicken occasionally, until cooked through and the sauce is thick, 3 to 4 minutes. Turn off the heat and swirl in 2 tablespoons butter until melted. Add the lemon zest and season with salt and pepper.
- Melt the remaining 1 tablespoon butter in a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Add the zucchini noodles and season with salt and pepper; cook, stirring occasionally, until just softened, 2 to 3 minutes. Toss in half the torn basil. Divide among plates and top with the chicken, lemon sauce, remaining basil and red pepper flakes.

BAKED CHICKEN SCHNITZEL
Growing up, chicken schnitzel was a classic. I decided to make this dish oven-friendly using less oil, and an easier cleanup. This dish tastes great with potato salad, or mashed potatoes and a nice crisp salad. Tastes great the next day cold too! It's a family-favorite! Enjoy with fresh squeezed lemon juice.

- Preheat oven to 425 degrees F (220 degrees C). Line a large baking sheet with aluminum foil and drizzle olive oil over foil. Place baking sheet in preheated oven.
- Flatten chicken breasts so they are all about 1/4-inch thick. Season chicken with salt and pepper.
- Mix flour and paprika together on a large plate. Beat eggs with salt and pepper in a shallow bowl. Mix bread crumbs and lemon zest together on a separate large plate.

CRISP CHICKEN SCHNITZEL WITH LEMONY HERB SALAD
This schnitzel is light and crunchy with a crust that rises like a soufflé. The secret is to trap air in the crust when you cook the meat by moving and shaking the pan (Ms. Clark demonstrates with pork in this video.) You can use this technique with a variety of meat cutlets.

Steps:
- Mince anchovies and garlic and mix with a large pinch of salt until you get a rough paste. Put it in bowl and whisk in the lemon zest, juice and another pinch of salt and some pepper. Slowly drizzle in the olive oil.
- Place eggs in one shallow dish, bread crumbs in another, and flour mixed with cayenne and nutmeg in a third. Season chicken cutlets generously with salt and pepper.
- Heat 1/8 inch oil in a large skillet. While oil heats, dip cutlets one by one into flour (shake off any excess), then into eggs (ditto) and finally into the bread crumbs, taking care not to handle chicken more than necessary (hold meat by ends).
- When oil sizzles when a pinch of bread crumbs is thrown in, add a chicken cutlet (or two if your skillet is large, leave plenty of room around them). Swirl pan so oil cascades over top of cutlet in waves. When bottom is golden brown, about 3 minutes, flip and brown the other side, swirling pan (swirling helps create air pockets, giving you lighter schnitzel). Transfer to a paper-towel-lined baking platter or baking tray and sprinkle with more salt. Repeat with remaining chicken.
- Toss salad greens and herbs with just enough anchovy-lemon dressing to lightly coat them. Divide salad on serving plates and top with schnitzel. Drizzle with more dressing and garnish with scallions.

CRISP CHICKEN SCHNITZEL WITH LEMONY SPRING HERB SALAD
New York Times, June 3, 2009 The hallmark of a perfect Wiener schnitzel, opined the epicure Joseph Wechsberg, is a slice of veal with breading "so dry you could sit on it without having a fat stain on your pants." I've clung to this image since I read it in Mr. Wechsberg's classic 1953 book, "Blue Trout and Black Truffles." Why anyone would ever sit on a schnitzel to test it in the first place wasn't clear, but I liked the notion of such a greaseless fried morsel of meat. Years later, an Austrian chef, Mario Lohninger, gave me a schnitzel lesson. (He and I worked on a cookbook together.) I thought I knew what was what. "They say you should be able to sit on a schnitzel without getting grease on your pants, right?" I said with authority. Mr. Lohninger raised an eyebrow. "Maybe they sit on schnitzel in Vienna," he said. "Where I come from we prefer a crisp, light schnitzel with a crust that rises like a soufflé." The secret, he said, is to trap air in the crust when you cook the meat by moving and shaking the pan. After dipping the veal in flour, egg and bread crumbs, he put a cutlet in the skillet, swirling it so the hot oil undulated over the cutlet in waves. This motion creates steam that lifts the crust away from the meat, allowing the bread crumbs to crisp without sticking to the veal in a gummy mass. Indeed, his schnitzel was a golden, gorgeous thing, with a puffy crust that shattered at the touch of a fork, and tender meat within. He served it with cucumber salad and lingonberry jam. Years went by, but when my next schnitzel craving hit, it hit hard. I wanted crumby, crisp, fried meat for dinner, and would not be denied. What I didn't want, however, was factory farm veal. I know there is humanely raised veal available in New York, but not at my local market. I chose cutlets of free-range chicken instead. Because the cutlets were not quite one-eighth-inch thick - the proper thickness for schnitzel, according to Mr. Lohninger - I pounded them a little with a rolling pin. Then, without handling them too much, I gently dipped them in flour, egg and bread crumbs. When they were all nicely coated, I dropped a cutlet in hot oil, swirling the pan as instructed. The meat puffed slightly and browned beautifully. The chicken was soft and savory (thanks to a pinch of cayenne and nutmeg) beneath the ultra-crisp crust. I served it with a bright herb-laden salad. The schnitzel passed Mr. Lohninger's soufflé test easily, and you don't have to sit on any cutlets - unless you're into that.

LEMON BASIL CHICKEN
This recipe is very simple to prepare, and tastes delicious. A perfect weeknight recipe. Do leave the skin and bones on the chicken pieces for more flavor and a lovely crisp skin. I typically double the recipe so that we can have leftovers. The recipe is from the cookbook Fresh & Fast by Marie Simmons. I serve with fresh seasonal vegetables.
