CHICKEN FRANCESE

Steps:

• Heat a large saute pan over medium-high heat until warmed. Add the oil. During heating, dip the chicken breasts into the eggs, and then dust each breast with seasoned flour on both sides. Once floured, add to the oiled pan, reduce the heat to medium and cook until light brown in color, 3 to 4 minutes. Flip and repeat cooking for a final 3 to 4 minutes. Once cooked, remove the breasts from the pan and allow to finish with carry-over cooking.
• Return the same pan to the heat and add the stock. Allow to simmer and reduce by three-quarters of the volume. After reducing, whisk in the butter to create a sauce, removing from the heat during the process. Finally, finish with lemon juice and parsley and serve over the chicken.

CHICKEN FRANCESE, AN ITALIAN AMERICAN CLASSIC

Steps:

• Prepare the chicken breast and set aside on a plate. Add the flour to a shallow dish or pie plate, and season with salt and pepper to taste. Mix with your hands to combine. In another shallow dish, beat the eggs with 2 tablespoons water.
• Meanwhile, heat the olive oil in a cast iron skillet over medium high heat. Season the chicken with salt and pepper, and then dredge the chicken in the seasoned flour. Dip them in the egg wash to coat completely, letting the excess drip off. When the oil is nice and hot, add the cutlets and fry for 4 minutes on each side until golden, turning once. Remove the chicken cutlets to a plate and set aside.
• Toss the lemon slices into the pan and cook for 1 to 2 minutes, until fragrant. Add the garlic, wine, broth, and lemon juice, and simmer for 5 minutes to reduce the sauce slightly, stirring often. Reduce the heat to medium low and add the butter.
• Return the chicken to the pan, and place the lemon slices on top of the cutlets. Simmer gently for 2 minutes to heat the chicken through. Season with salt and pepper and garnish with chopped parsley before serving with pasta or rice.

Steps:

• Warm a serving platter in a 250 degree F oven.
• Pile the parsley, anchovies and garlic on a cutting board and finely chop them together. Mix in the lemon zest.
• Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add the pasta and cook until al dente.
• Meanwhile, cut into and across the chicken breasts and open them like a book. Pound into very thin cutlets, 1/8 to 1/4-inch thick. Sprinkle the chicken with salt and pepper on both sides, then dredge in flour to coat. Beat the eggs in a shallow dish with a splash of water.
• Heat 2 tablespoons EVOO and 2 tablespoons butter in a large skillet over medium to medium-high heat. Dip 2 pieces of the chicken in the egg to coat, then saute until cooked through, about 2 minutes per side. Transfer to the warm platter. Add 1 tablespoon butter to the skillet and cook the remaining pieces of chicken. Add to the platter.
• Add the chicken stock, wine and lemon juice to the skillet and simmer until slightly reduced. Add the remaining 3 tablespoons butter and stir until melted. Add the chicken to the sauce, turning it to coat, then return the chicken to the platter. Add half the parsley-anchovy gremolata to the sauce, then add the pasta and toss for 1 to 2 minutes.
• Garnish the chicken with the remaining gremolata and serve alongside the pasta.
