Lemon Garlic Chicken Scallopini Recipes

Steps:

• In a small bowl, stir together the garlic and butter until well combined. Set aside. Place a chicken breast half on a work surface with the thick side facing to the right (if you're right-handed), and place your left hand down on the chicken breast. Using a very sharp knife, carefully cut the chicken breast from the thick side to about 1/2 inch from the edge of the thin side, in a horizontal cut. Open the cut chicken breast and spread it out like an open book. Using a meat mallet, gently pound the butterflied chicken breast out until it's an even thickness.
• Place the flour into a shallow dish, and dredge each chicken breast on both sides with flour. Melt the garlic butter in a large skillet over medium heat until it stops foaming, and cook each chicken breast until golden brown on both sides, 6 to 8 minutes per side. Sprinkle each breast with salt and pepper. Remove the chicken breasts to a platter, and keep warm.
• Cook and stir the mushrooms in the same skillet as the chicken until the mushrooms have absorbed the remaining butter in the skillet and have begun to turn brown at the edges. Stir in capers, lemon juice, white wine, and chicken demi-glace, and stir to combine. Reduce to a simmer. Adjust salt and pepper again, and stir the parsley into the sauce.
• Remove the chicken breasts to plates, and serve the sauce over the chicken. Garnish each serving with a lemon slice.

Steps:

• Melt butter in a skillet over medium-high heat.
• Season chicken with salt and pepper; place in the melted butter. Cook chicken, flipping frequently, until browned, about 5 minutes. Sprinkle 1 tablespoon garlic powder over chicken; flip and sprinkle 1 tablespoon garlic powder on second side. Cook each side for 2 minutes.
• Pour lemon juice over each side of chicken and cook until no longer pink in the center, 5 to 10 minutes more. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 165 degrees F (74 degrees C).

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:

• In a shallow dish stir together flour and garlic salt. Press the chicken into the flour mixture, coating both sides completely. Coat a large, non-stick skillet with olive oil and set it over high heat. Add chicken and brown on each side approximately 45 seconds. Remove chicken and set it aside. Add lemon and chicken broth to skillet and let boil 30 seconds. Return chicken to pan and push it into sauce. Cover and simmer over low heat 3 minutes until meat thermometer inserted in center registers 170° F. To serve, set chicken on plates and pour sauce on top.

Steps:

• First -- this is quick cooking, the sauce, the chicken and the pasta, so make sure you have all your herbs chopped, lemons sliced and chicken ready.
• Chicken -- In a pie plate or medium size pan add the flour, salt and lemon pepper. Now if the chicken isn't pounded, put your chicken breasts between saran or plastic wrap and pound with a meat mallet, rolling pin or even a heavy skillet to flatten. Don't go too far, but you want a nice thin fillet. Then dredge the chicken breasts in the flour mixture. Then set to the side on a plate while you start the pasta.
• Pasta -- In a large pot of boiling salted water, cook the pasta according to directions.
• Garlic Oil -- In a small sauce pan add the garlic and olive oil and cook on medium just 2-3 minutes until the garlic slightly browns but doesn't fry. Just to infuse the oil.
• Pasta and Chicken -- As the water boil, add the pasta. I like a dried spinach pasta, but I have used everything from angel hair to fettuccini for this. Just use your favorite. The spinach to me really adds a lot of flavor, but if you can't find that. Use a regular pasta.
• So as the pasta boils, heat up the butter and oil in a large pan, non stick preferred. Add the chicken and lemon slices and saute 3-4 minutes per side until the chicken is golden brown. It doesn't take long. Flip the lemon a couple of times to get golden brown. Once done, remove the chicken to a plate along with the lemons and cover with foil to keep warm.
• Pasta, Oil, Chicken, and Sauce -- Ok, the pasta should be done. Check it -- drain and set to the side. Olive oil, remove the garlic and the olive oil is done -- Chicken is done and resting -- Sauce. Time to start.
• Sauce -- To the pan you cooked the chicken in, add the shallot and cook just a minute, then add the flour and whisk in, then add the wine, broth and lemon juice and cook until reduced by half, about 3-4 minutes on a medium heat. Reduce and add the cream, thyme, parsley, basil, salt and pepper and any juices from the chicken plate.
• Serving -- Toss the pasta with the garlic oil, lemon pepper, salt and lemon juice. Plate up some pasta on each plate. Top with one of the chicken breasts and then drizzle with the wine sauce. Garnish with a couple of the lemon slices and just enjoy!

Steps:

• FOR THE CHICKEN: heat a sauté pan over medium heat.
• Add oil and heat.
• Add chicken pieces to the sauté pan and sauté on each side for one minute (or until no longer pink).
• Add the sliced mushrooms to the sauté pan and sauté with the chicken for an additional minute.
• When the mushrooms are cooked, squeeze the juice from the lemons into the sauté pan and coat the chicken with the juice (ensure there are no seeds).
• Add the cream to the pan and stir to incorporate.
• Add the lemon sauce and stir to incorporate- DO NOT RETURN TO HEAT/FLAME!
• FOR THE LEMON SAUCE: boil the chablis to reduce to 2 cups.
• Add the lemon juice and butter and melt slowly.
• Add the whipping cream and simmer on low heat until thickened.
• Add the spices and cool to room temperature.
• TO SERVE: in a large bowl, twirl the pasta into a nest.
• Sprinkle the chicken pieces on the pasta and pour the remaining contents of the pan on and around the chicken.
• Sprinkle the artichokes, pancetta and capers over the entire dish.
• Garnish with chopped parsley.
