Chicken Schnitzel Parmigiana Recipes

CHICKEN PARMIGIANA

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Lightly grease a medium baking sheet.
• Pour egg into a small shallow bowl. Place bread crumbs in a separate shallow bowl. Dip chicken into egg, then into the bread crumbs. Place coated chicken on the prepared baking sheet and bake in the preheated oven for 40 minutes, or until no longer pink and juices run clear.
• Pour 1/2 of the spaghetti sauce into a 7x11 inch baking dish. Place chicken over sauce, and cover with remaining sauce. Sprinkle mozzarella and Parmesan cheeses on top and return to the preheated oven for 20 minutes.

BAKED CHICKEN SCHNITZEL

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 425 degrees F (220 degrees C). Line a large baking sheet with aluminum foil and drizzle olive oil over foil. Place baking sheet in preheated oven.
• Flatten chicken breasts so they are all about 1/4-inch thick. Season chicken with salt and pepper.
• Mix flour and paprika together on a large plate. Beat eggs with salt and pepper in a shallow bowl. Mix bread crumbs and lemon zest together on a separate large plate. Dredge each chicken piece in flour mixture, then egg, and then bread crumbs mixture and set aside in 1 layer on a clean plate. Repeat with remaining chicken.
• Remove baking sheet from oven and arrange chicken in 1 layer on the sheet. Drizzle more olive oil over each piece of coated chicken.
• Bake in the preheated oven for 5 to 6 minutes. Flip chicken and continue baking until no longer pink in the center and the breading is lightly browned, 5 to 6 minutes more. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 165 degrees F (74 degrees C).

Steps:

• Beat eggs in a shallow bowl with garlic, parsley, salt and pepper.
• In a separate shallow bowl, combine breadcrumbs (I pulse the bread slices in the food processor to get nice fresh crumbs) and parmesan cheese.
• Dip each cutlet into egg mixture to coat completely, then dredge in breadcrumb mixture, patting it on to help it stick.
• For each 2 cutlets, heat 2 tbsp oil in a large non-stick skillet over med-high heat.
• Cook 2 cutlets at a time until golden brown and cooked through, about 3 minutes per side.
• Transfer the cooked chicken cutlets to an oven-proof platter or pan, and keep warm in the oven while cooking the remaining cutlets and making the sauce.
• Wipe the skillet clean with paper towels.
• Heat butter until melted and add wine.
• Heat 30 seconds and stir in broth and lemon juice.
• Season with salt and pepper.
• Simmer 2 minutes.
• Pour broth mixture over cutlets and serve.
• Garnish with parsley and lemon slices.

CHICKEN PARMIGIANA

Steps:

• Sprinkle both sides of chicken with salt, pepper and Italian herbs. Refrigerate for 30 minutes.
• Heat oil in a saucepan over medium heat. Add garlic and onion, cook for 3 minutes until onion is translucent.
• Add red pepper flakes and herbs, stir for 15 seconds. Add wine, turn up heat and let it simmer rapidly until mostly evaporated and winey smell is gone.
• Add tomato, chicken stock, salt and pepper. Cover, then simmer 10 minutes on low until thickened. Cover and keep warm.
• Preheat oven to 180°C/350°F.
• Crumbing set up: Spread flour out in a shallow bowl. Whisk Egg Dredge in a separate shallow bowl. Mix Crumbing ingredients in a third shallow bowl or pan.
• Dredge & crumb: Press both sides of chicken into flour, then shake off excess. Coat in egg, letting excess drip off, then place in Crumbing, pressing to adhere.
• Transfer to plate and repeat with remaining chicken.
• Line a tray with paper towels and place rack on tray.
• Heat 1.5 - 2cm / 2/3" oil in a skillet over medium high heat to 180°C/350°F (Note 9).
• Carefully place 2 or 3 pieces of chicken in. Cook 2 minutes until underside is golden, then carefully turn and cook the other side for 1 1/2 minutes.
• Transfer to rack, then repeat with remaining chicken. (Note 12 - oil clean and reuse)
• Place chicken on a tray. Spoon 1/3 cup sauce over the chicken - cover around 80% of the chicken, leave the ends crispy.
• Sprinkle sauce with basil, then mozzarella cheese (pile it on in mounds to use it all up), then sprinkle with parmesan. Drizzle oil over parmesan.
• Bake 15 minutes until cheese is melted and there's a few brown spots - no longer, otherwise chicken will overcook.
• Remove from oven, sprinkle with extra basil if desired. Serve immediately (with leftover Tomato Sauce, if you'd like!)
