Chicken Milanese With Slow Roasted Cherry Tomatoes And Arugula Recipes

Steps:

• To make the Slow Roasted Cherry Tomatoes & Arugula:.
• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
• Put the tomatoes on a rimmed cookie sheet and drizzle with 1 tablespoon of the olive oil and a pinch of salt. Roast for about 30 minutes (depending on your oven, they may be done in as little as 20 minute or as long as 40 min.), stirring occasionally, until the tomatoes are split and blistered. Which means they are super sweet.
• While the chicken is cooking, toss the arugula with the remaining tablespoon of olive oil, the vinegar and pinch of salt. Fold the tomatoes into the arugula.
• Chicken:.
• Put the chicken breasts in between two sheets of wax paper and pound them with a mallet, until they are very, very thin - you should be able to almost see through them - about 1/6 inch thick.
• Mix the oregano, salt and pepper into the bread crumbs or panko and set on a plate.
• Put the milk into a shallow bowl.
• Dip each chicken piece into the milk and then dredge in the bread crumbs. You should have a thin, even coating.
• Heat 1/4 cup of olive oil in a large nonstick skillet. Cook the chicken for about 4 minutes on the first side, or until evenly browned and crisp. Flip and cook for another 2-3 minutes or until the other side is browned and crisp and the chicken is firm to the touch.
• Place a piece of chicken on each plate and mound a handful of the arugula mix over each piece.

Steps:

• Place your palm flat against the top of each chicken breast and carefully slice each piece in half horizontally; you'll be left with 4 thinner chicken breast pieces. Place each chicken cutlet between 2 sheets of waxed paper and use the smooth side of a mallet (or a rolling pin) to pound them until they're very thin. If you think they're thin enough -- pound 'em a few more times! The thinner the better.
• In a dish, whisk together the milk and eggs. Place the flour in another dish and mix in some salt and pepper. Place the breadcrumbs in a third dish. Set the 3 dishes aside for a sec.
• Salt and pepper both sides of the chicken pieces, then dredge them 1 at a time in the flour, then quickly dunk both sides in the egg mixture and then coat both sides in the breadcrumbs. Lay each piece on a plate until you're ready to cook them.
• Heat 1 tablespoon butter and 1 tablespoon olive oil in a skillet over medium-low heat. When it's melted and hot, add 2 pieces of the breaded chicken and cook, flipping once, until the breading is golden brown and the chicken is cooked, 2 to 3 minutes per side; transfer the chicken to a clean plate. Add the other tablespoon of butter and oil to the skillet and cook the other 2 pieces of chicken.
• To serve, place 1 piece of cooked chicken on each plate. Top generously with arugula. Sprinkle with a little kosher salt, drizzle with balsamic vinegar and sprinkle on some Parmesan shavings. Serve with a lemon wedge on the side.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 200 degrees F (95 degrees C).
• Beat eggs with salt and pepper in a shallow dish. Spread flour in another dish and bread crumbs in a third dish.
• Working with one piece at a time, gently press chicken into the flour to coat and shake off the excess flour. Dip into the beaten egg, then press into bread crumbs. Gently toss between your hands so any bread crumbs that haven't stuck can fall away. Place the breaded chicken onto a plate while breading the rest; do not stack.
• Heat vegetable oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Pan-fry chicken in batches of 2 or 3 pieces until golden brown and no longer pink in the center, about 2 to 4 minutes per side. Transfer cooked chicken to a baking sheet and keep warm in preheated oven while cooking remaining chicken.
• Serve with lemon wedges.
