Hard Cider Sauced Chicken Scallopine Recipes

Steps:

• Warm the olive oil in a large skillet over high heat. Season the chicken
• cutlets with salt and pepper. Cook the chicken until golden and cooked
• through, about 2 to 3 minutes per side. Transfer the chicken to serving
• plate and tent with foil to keep warm. Turn the heat to medium, add the
• shallot and the garlic and cook until tender, about 2 minutes.
• Deglaze the pan with the white wine. Using a wooden spoon, scrape all the brown bits from the bottom of the pan. Cook until the wine is almost evaporated.
• Add the chicken broth and saffron threads, bring to a simmer and reduce for 10 minutes. Add the cream, salt, and pepper. Stir to combine and simmer for 1 minute to blend the flavors. Pour the sauce over the chicken.
• Sprinkle with parsley and serve immediately.

Steps:

• Put the flour in a large shallow dish and season with the salt and pepper. Pat the chicken scaloppini dry with paper towels, then put them in the flour, coating the chicken on both sides. Set aside.
• Heat the olive oil in a 14-inch cast-iron skillet over medium-high heat. Add the floured chicken and cook, in batches if needed, until deeply golden, about 3 minutes per side. Remove to a wire rack-lined sheet tray.
• Reduce the heat under the same cast-iron skillet and add the onion, garlic and rosemary. Stir occasionally and cook until the onions are translucent, 3 to 5 minutes. Add the butter and capers and scrape the skillet as the butter melts to deglaze. Add the chicken stock and lemon juice, stirring to combine. Add the chicken pieces back to warm through and allow the sauce to reduce, another 2 to 3 minutes, spooning the sauce over the chicken to coat.
• Garnish with the lemon supremes and serve.

Steps:

• Heat the oil in a large lidded non-stick pan (we used a wide, high-sided frying pan) and cook the chicken for 3-4 mins on each side until browned. Remove with a slotted spoon, then add the onions to the pan. Cook for 3 mins, then stir in the garlic and cook for 1 min more. Pour in the cider and bring to the boil. Return the chicken to the pan, cover with a lid and simmer for 10 mins.
• After 10 mins, remove the lid and stir in the crème fraîche, mustard and herbs. Bubble for another 5 mins, then season. Serve with rice and Tenderstem broccoli.

Steps:

• Heat the oven to 200 degrees. Slice each chicken thigh open like a book and lay it flat between two sheets of plastic wrap. Using a meat pounder, a wine bottle or the bottom of a heavy skillet, pound each piece of chicken to 1/4-inch thickness. Put two large skillets over medium-high heat for a minute or 2. Meanwhile, sprinkle the chicken with salt and pepper and put the flour and bread crumbs on two plates or in two shallow bowls. Beat the eggs in another shallow bowl. Sprinkle all with salt and pepper.
• Add 1 tablespoon each oil and butter to each skillet and swirl it around. When it is hot - a pinch of flour will sizzle - dredge a piece of the chicken in the flour, then dip it in the eggs and finally dredge it in the bread crumbs. Add the chicken piece to one of the pans, then repeat with another piece in the second pan. (You may be able to fit more than one paillard in each pan at a time.)
• Cook the chicken, rotating occasionally and regulating the heat if necessary so it sizzles constantly but doesn't burn. When the pieces are brown, after about 2 minutes, turn them over.
• Cook on the second side until the chicken is firm to the touch, 1 to 2 minutes. (Cut into one with a thin-bladed knife; the center should be white or slightly pink.) Transfer the chicken to a platter and put it in the oven. Wipe out the pan with a paper towel and repeat with the remaining chicken, adding more oil and butter to each skillet as necessary.
• When all the chicken is cooked, turn off the heat under one of the skillets. Add a tablespoon or 2 more oil or butter to the other pan if it looks dry and sprinkle the fat with 2 teaspoons of the remaining flour. Cook over medium-high heat, stirring, for 3 to 4 minutes. Add the wine and stir and scrape the pan until the wine has reduced by about half, about 1 minute. Add the stock and lemon juice and cook, stirring, until the mixture is slightly thickened and a bit syrupy, another 3 to 4 minutes.
• Add 1 tablespoon butter and swirl the pan around until it melts. Add any juices that have accumulated around the cooked chicken, along with the 1/4 cup parsley. Stir, taste and adjust the seasoning. Spoon the sauce over the chicken, garnish with parsley and serve with lemon wedges.

Steps:

• 1. Season the chicken with salt and pepper. Heat 1 tablespoon of the oil in a large saute pan or skillet over medium-high heat. Add as many chicken cutlets as will fit comfortably, working in batches to keep from crowding the pan or skillet. Cook for 2 to 3 minutes, until the first side is nicely browned; turn them over and cook for 3 to 4 minutes or until the cutlets are cooked through. Adjust the heat as necessary to keep the pan or skillet hot, but not smoking. Transfer the cooked chicken to a platter as you work. 2. When all of the cutlets are cooked, add the remaining 1/2 tablespoon of oil to the pan or skillet along with the onion and a pinch of salt. Cook over medium heat for 3 to 4 minutes, until the onion has softened. Add the celery and apple; cook for 3 to 4 minutes, stirring once or twice, until the celery is tender. 3. Whisk in the broth and 1 1/4 cups of the hard cider, the mustard and brown sugar. Increase the heat to medium-high; once the mixture comes to a boil, cook for about 5 minutes, stirring a few times, until it has reduced by half. 4. Dissolve the cornstarch in the remaining 1/4 cup of the cider in a cup to form a slurry; add that to the pan or skillet, whisking to incorporate and slightly thicken the sauce. 5. Return the chicken cutlets and any accumulated juices to the pan or skillet and reduce the heat to low; allow
