CHEF JOHN'S CHICKEN FRENCH

Chicken French has everything I love in a recipe. It's delicious and easy, frugal, yet fancy, and everyone loves it. Better yet, it has a vague, confusing history and completely preposterous name. This not-French recipe hails from the Rochester area of New York State, where it's a staple on virtually every Italian-American restaurant menu.

Steps:

  • Beat eggs and milk together in a shallow bowl. Whisk flour, salt, black pepper, and cayenne pepper together in another shallow bowl.
  • Gently press chicken into flour mixture to coat; shake off excess flour. Dip into egg mixture and coat completely.
  • Heat olive oil and 1 tablespoon butter together in a large skillet over medium heat. Cook chicken in hot oil until lightly browned, 2 to 3 minutes per side. Transfer chicken to a plate.
  • Cook and stir vegetable broth, sherry, and lemon juice in the same skillet; bring to a boil and cook until sauce is reduced by half. Remove from heat and add cold butter chunks; stir until butter is melted and sauce is shiny and thickened, 1 to 2 minutes. Stir parsley into sauce and season with salt and pepper.
  • Return chicken to the skillet over medium heat, spoon sauce over the top, and cook until chicken is heated through and no longer pink in the center, 1 to 3 minutes more.

Steps:

  • Mix together the flour, salt, and pepper in a shallow bowl. In another bowl, whisk beaten eggs, sugar, and Parmesan cheese until the mixture is thoroughly blended and the sugar has dissolved.
  • Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat until the oil shimmers. Dip the chicken breasts into the flour mixture, then into the egg mixture, and gently lay them into the skillet. Pan-fry the chicken breasts until golden brown and no longer pink in the middle, about 6 minutes on each side. Remove from the skillet and set aside.
  • In the same skillet over medium-low heat, melt the butter, and stir in garlic, sherry, lemon juice, and chicken base. Bring the sauce to a simmer, and stir until smooth and slightly thickened, about 5 minutes. Be sure to dissolve any brown flavor bits from the bottom of the skillet as you stir. Return the chicken breasts to the sauce, and gently simmer until no longer pink in the center, about 15 minutes.
  • To serve, place a chicken breast on a plate, and top with sauce.

Steps:

  • Put the chicken breasts side by side on a cutting board and lay a piece of plastic wrap over them. Pound the chicken breasts with a flat meat mallet, until they are about 1/4-inch thick. Put some flour in a shallow platter and season with a fair amount of salt and pepper; mix with a fork to distribute evenly. In a wide bowl, beat the eggs with 3 tablespoons of water to make an egg wash. Heat the oil over medium-high flame in a large skillet.
  • Dredge both sides of the chicken cutlets in the seasoned flour, and then 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 2 minutes on each side until golden, turning once. Remove the chicken cutlets to a large platter in a single layer to keep warm.
  • Toss the lemon slices into the pan and cook for 1 to 2 minutes, until fragrant. Add the wine, broth, and lemon juice, simmer for 5 minutes to reduce the sauce slightly. Roll the butter in some flour and add it to the skillet, this will thicken the sauce. Stir to incorporate and dissolve the flour. Reduce the heat to medium-low and return the chicken to the pan; 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.

4 skinless, boneless, chicken breasts (about 11/2 pounds)
All-purpose flour, for dredging
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
4 large eggs
3 tablespoons water
1/4 cup extra-virgin olive oil
1/2 lemon, with rind, cut in thin rounds
1/2 cup dry white wine, such as Pinot Grigio
1 cup chicken broth
1/2 lemon, juiced
2 tablespoons unsalted butter
1/4 cup chopped flat-leaf parsley

CHICKEN FRANCESE

Chicken francese, sometimes called chicken French, is one of those rare restaurant dishes that's truly easy to cook at home. If you can make chicken cutlets, you can make this lemony, buttery recipe; the only difference is an easy pan sauce that brightens the whole plate. This version includes lemon slices browned in butter, which are pretty and tasty but entirely optional. Although the name suggests that it's a French or Italian dish ("Francese" means French in Italian), it's actually neither: Like spaghetti and meatballs, it's a mostly Italian-American invention. Serve with something starchy to soak up every drop of the sauce; pasta is traditional.

Steps:

  • In a wide, shallow bowl, whisk eggs, milk, salt and pepper until blended. Place the flour in a separate bowl. Line a baking sheet with paper towels.
  • In a wide skillet, heat olive and vegetable oils over medium heat until shimmering.
  • Working in batches to avoid crowding the pan, lightly dredge the chicken in flour and shake off any excess. Dip into egg batter, let excess batter drip back into the bowl and place in the skillet. Fry, turning once, until golden brown on both sides, about 4 minutes per side. Adjust the heat as the cutlets cook so they brown slowly and evenly, with a steady bubbling. Transfer to the paper-towel-lined pan and repeat with remaining cutlets.
  • When all cutlets are browned, remove the pan from the heat and pour off the oil. Wipe out the pan with paper towels. Return the pan to low heat.
  • If making the lemon slices (if not, skip to Step 6 below): Melt 3 tablespoons of the butter and then scatter the lemon slices over the bottom of the pan. Cook, stirring gently occasionally, until the lemon slices are golden and browning around the edges, about 3 minutes. Scoop out the lemon slices and set them aside.
  • Add 3 tablespoons of butter, the wine and lemon juice and bring to a boil. Boil until the liquid is syrupy, 3 to 4 minutes. Pour in the stock, bring to a boil and cook until thickened into a sauce, about 5 minutes. (It will thicken more when you add the cutlets.) Taste and adjust the seasonings with lemon, salt and pepper; it should be quite lemony and not too salty.
  • Reduce the heat, tuck the cutlets into the pan and simmer very gently until the sauce is velvety and the chicken pieces are heated through, about 4 minutes. Turn the cutlets over occasionally in the sauce. Place the browned lemon slices on top. Sprinkle with chopped parsley and serve, spooning some of the sauce over each serving.

10 FRENCH CHICKEN RECIPES TO MAKE RIGHT NOW | KITCHN

From thekitchn.com
  • French Chicken Casserole a la Normande from Vikalinka. Bacon, apples, sautéed shallots, and a little fresh thyme bring the classic flavors of Normandy into this French chicken casserole.
  • Braised French Onion Chicken with Gruyère. French onion soup is one of the most iconic dishes around, and somehow, improbably, this version — adding chicken thighs and mustard — manages to leave the best parts intact while creating a wholly different dish.
  • Slow Cooker Creamy French Mustard Chicken. “More mustard” is all but a motto when it comes to cooking chicken in the French style, and this slow-cooker dish takes that to heart, adding both grainy and smooth Dijon mustards to the classic base of white wine, shallots, and cream.
  • Chicken Cordon Bleu from A Family Feast. If comfort food were designed in a lab to be the most comforting, it would come out like chicken cordon bleu: breading on the outside, creamy sauce over top, and cheesy ham inside.
  • Crispy Skillet Chicken in White Wine Sauce from A Saucy Kitchen. Wine is chicken’s culinary best friend. The French are well aware (you’ll see it multiple times on this page), and incorporate it nicely into recipes like this one.
  • Creamy Champagne Chicken from Cafe Delites. Silky sauces and perfectly cooked chicken complement each other’s textures in a way that makes for a stellar dish.
  • Roasted Chicken Thighs with Garlic from Cooking Classy. Roasted chicken is good, but roasting the thighs alone gives you all the best parts without having to share or settle for breast meat.
  • Lemon Garlic Chicken Thighs from Damn Delicious. While the previous recipe highlights how well the skin of a chicken thigh crisps up, this one takes the same garlicky goodness, adds some lemon, and shows how great the thigh — minus the skin and bone — can hold moisture through a high-heat trip to the grill.
  • Slow Cooker Coq au Vin from Diethood. Another classic from the annals of French chicken dishes, but this time turned into an easy slow cooker, set-it-and-forget-it recipe.
  • Dorie Greenspan’s Herb Butter Chicken. Of course, nothing is better than a simple roast chicken, and everybody has their own favorite. So why not look to one of our kitchen queens for her standard version?
