CHICKEN FRESCO RECIPE - (4.3/5)

Steps:

• Marinate the chicken in balsamic vinegar for about 30 minutes. (I used more than 1/2 ounce because I had more to marinate. Next time I will marinate a little longer. I also pounded my chicken breast.) Sauté chicken in enough olive oil to just keep the pan and chicken coated. Sauté chicken until cooked and plate. (I kept it covered in the pan on very low heat to keep it hot.) Place slices of tomato on top of the chicken breast. Combine white wine and lemon juice in a saucepan over low-medium heat until warm and almost a boil. Lower heat to low. Add heavy whipping cream and simmer for about 3 minutes to thicken sauce. Now add your cubed butter and whisk all together constantly. Once sauce is hot and a thicker consistency, pull from the stove and top over the plated chicken. Sprinkle fresh basil on top and serve.

CHICKEN AL FRESCO

Steps:

• In large saucepan, combine water, milk and butter. Bring just to a boil.
• Stir in pasta, contents of seasoning packet, chicken, tomatoes, onions and basil. Return to a boil, reduce heat to medium.
• Boil, uncovered, stirring frequently 6 to 8 minutes. Sauce will be thin, but will thicken upon standing.
• Sprinkle white cheese on top of each serving.

CHICKEN FRANCESE

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.
