Grilled Lemon Dijon Chicken Thighs With Arugula Salad Recipe 45

Steps:

• Combine the flour, 1 teaspoon salt, and 1/2 teaspoon pepper on a dinner plate. On a second plate, beat the eggs with 1 tablespoon of water. On a third plate, combine the bread crumbs, the 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese, the lemon zest and thyme, and set aside.
• Pound the chicken breasts between two sheets of parchment paper until they are 1/4 inch thick. You can use either a meat mallet or a rolling pin.
• Coat the chicken breasts on both sides with the prepared flour mixture, then dip both sides into the egg mixture and dredge both sides in the bread-crumb mixture, pressing lightly.
• Heat 1 tablespoon of butter and 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a large sauté pan and cook 2 or 3 chicken breasts on medium-low heat for 2 to 3 minutes on each side, until cooked through. Add more butter and oil and cook the rest of the chicken breasts.
• Place the arugula in a large bowl. In a 1-cup glass measure, whisk together the 1/4 cup lemon juice, 1/2 cup olive oil, 1/2 teaspoon salt, and 1/4 teaspoon pepper. Pour enough dressing on the arugula to moisten. Toss well.
• Pile some arugula on top of each hot chicken breast. With a very sharp knife or a vegetable peeler, shave the chunk of Parmesan into large shards and arrange them on top of the arugula.

Steps:

• 1. Sprinkle chicken with 1/4 teaspoon salt and 1/8 teaspoon pepper. Combine chicken, 1 1/2 teaspoons oil, juice, Dijon, and garlic in a bowl; toss to coat. Let stand 4 minutes. Heat a grill pan over medium-high heat. Coat pan with cooking spray. Add chicken to pan; grill 5 minutes on each side or until done. Place chicken on a cutting board. Cut chicken into 1/4-inch-thick slices. 2. Combine remaining 1/4 teaspoon salt, remaining 1/8 teaspoon pepper, remaining 2 tablespoons oil, shallots, vinegar, and honey in a large bowl, stirring with a whisk to dissolve honey. Add tomatoes and arugula; toss to coat. Place 1 1/2 cups arugula mixture on each of 4 plates; top evenly with sliced chicken.

Steps:

• Whisk together the oil, lemon zest and juice, vinegar, mustard, tarragon, honey, 1/4 teaspoon salt and some pepper in a medium bowl. Place the chicken in a large resealable bag and pour in half of the dressing. Seal the bag and allow the chicken to marinate in the fridge for at least an hour. Reserve the remaining dressing for the arugula.
• Preheat a grill to medium high. Remove the chicken from the marinade, season with some salt and pepper and grill until cooked through, 3 to 4 minutes per side. Grill the lemon halves cut-side down until grill marks appear, about 6 minutes. Transfer the chicken and lemon to a platter.
• Pour the remaining dressing over the arugula and toss to coat. To serve, place 1 chicken breast on each plate and top with the arugula, a sprinkling of Parmesan and a grilled lemon half.

• In a food processor, combine all ingredients except oil, salt, pepper, and chicken.
• Process until the ingredients are finely chopped.
• Drizzle in the oil and run until the mixture is fluid.

• Add marinade and seal bag and refrigerate for several hours or overnight.
• Preheat range top grill or outdoor grill.
• Grill for 7 minutes per side until juices are clear and internal temperature is 170 degrees.
