nucpharm29 said:Here goes:
4 boneless,skinless chicken breasts, pounded until almost flat
1 5-ounce bag of salted pretzels, any shape
1 tblsp fresh thyme leaves, chopped
Pepper
2 eggs
Veggie oil for frying
2 tbsp butter
2 tbsp flour
2 cups grated sharp cheddar cheese
1 cup grated extra-sharp cheddar
2 heaping tbsp spicy brown mustard
salt
1/4 cup flat leaf parsley, chopped
1/4 small onion finely chopped
1 large sour dill pickle finely chopped
1 lemon cut into wedges
Place the pretzels in a food processor or blender and grind until fine. Transfer the ground pretzels to a shallow dish and add the thyme and some pepper. Crack and beat 2 eggs in a 2nd shallow dish witha splash of water. Working with 1 chicken breast at a time, coat the breast in the pretzels, then in the eggs, then in the pretzels again. preheat a large skillet with 1/4 inch of oil, add the chicken to the hot oil. Cook in a single layer, in 2 batches if necessary, about 3-4 minutes oj each side, or until the cutlets' juices run clear and the breading is evenly browned
While hte chicken is frying, in a med. sauce pot over med. heat, melt the butter and add the flour to it. Cook for 1 minute, then whisk in the milk. When the milk comes to a bubble, stir in the cheeses and mustard with a wooden spoon. Season witha little salt and pepper and remove from heat.
Transfer the fried chicken to serving dish, drizzle with cheese-mustard sauce, andthen sprinkle witha little parsley, finely chopped onion and finely chopped pickles. Serve immediately, with lemon wedges along side.
Enjoy!
LindsayDunn228 said:Garlic Roast Chicken with Rosemary and Lemon2 ½ lbs. boneless, skinless chicken breasts, cut into thirds (I forget about the "poundage" and just buy 2 packs of 3 breasts)
6 cloves garlic, crushed but NOT chopped
3 T. fresh rosemary leaves (you can use dried too)
3 T. EVOO (just enough to coat the bottom of a 9x13 casserole dish)
1 lemon, zested and juiced
1 T. grill seasoning (I use McCormick's Montreal Steak)
½ cup white wine (I prefer Sutter Home's Pinot Noir)
Preheat oven to 450.
Arrange chicken in a 9x13 casserole dish. Add garlic, rosemary, EVOO, lemon zest, and grill seasoning. Toss and coat chicken in all the ingredients, then place in oven, uncovered. Roast 20 minutes. Add wine and lemon juice to the dish and combine with pan juice. Return to oven and turn oven off. Let stand 5 minutes then remove chicken from the oven. Spoon pan juices over chicken and serve.
*Note: the pan juices are SOOOOOOOOOO good. Make sure you make rice or something so you can soak them all up!!*
