Chicken Schnitzel With Chile Cherry Tomatoes And Mozzarella Recipes

CHICKEN SCHNITZEL

Steps:

• Pour 1 1/2 inches of oil into a large heavy pot or high-sided skillet. Clip on a deep-fry thermometer and heat the oil over medium-high heat to 360 degrees F.
• Set up a dredging station: Place the flour, eggs, and breadcrumbs in each of 3 separate bowls. Season the breadcrumbs with the paprika, 1 teaspoon salt and a few turns of pepper.
• Place a piece of chicken between 2 large pieces of plastic wrap and use a rolling pin or other blunt object to pound the chicken until it is as thin as you can make it without it tearing. Repeat with the remaining chicken.
• Coat the chicken first in the flour, then in the egg wash and finally in the breadcrumbs. Fry in batches, flipping once, until golden brown, 2 to 3 minutes. Transfer to a wire rack set over a baking sheet to drain; season both sides with salt and pepper. Hold in a warm oven if not serving immediately. Serve with lemon wedges.

CHICKEN-MOZZARELLA MELTS WITH CHERRY TOMATOES

Steps:

• Pound chicken between pieces of plastic to a scant 1/4 inch thick. Heat grill to medium-high. Combine 1/4 cup oil and garlic in a large cast-iron skillet; place on grill. Cook until golden, about 1 minute. Add tomatoes and Peppadews; season with salt and pepper. Cook until mixture thickens slightly and tomatoes burst, about 12 minutes. Remove skillet from grill; cover grill to reheat, 5 minutes.
• Drizzle chicken with 1 tablespoon oil; season with salt and pepper. Grill until charred in spots, 1 to 2 minutes. Flip, top with cheese, and cover grill. Cook until cheese melts and chicken is cooked through, 1 minute. Transfer to a plate; spoon tomato mixture over top. Top with basil. Dress arugula with remaining 1 tablespoon oil and Peppadew brine. Serve atop chicken, with bread.

CHICKEN ESCALOPES WITH CHERRY TOMATOES, RICOTTA, AND MOZZARELLA

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Lightly grease a baking tray.
• Place flour in one bowl, beaten egg in another bowl, and mix panko and Parmesan together in a third bowl.
• Butterfly chicken breasts and season with salt and pepper. Dredge chicken in flour, then in beaten egg, and finally in panko mix to coat.
• Heat vegetable oil in a pan over medium-high heat. Add chicken to the hot pan and cook until browned and crispy but not fully cooked, about 3 minutes per side. Remove chicken and place on the prepared baking tray.
• Add more oil to the pan if needed. Add shallots and tomatoes and saute until soft, 3 to 4 minutes. Season with salt and pepper and add taco seasoning. Remove from the heat.
• Pour tomato mixture over the chicken, then dollop with ricotta and sprinkle with mozzarella. Season with salt and pepper and drizzle with olive oil.
• Bake in the preheated oven until chicken is no longer pink in the center and the juices run clear, 20 to 25 minutes. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 165 degrees F (74 degrees C).

SHEET-PAN CHICKEN WITH TOMATOES AND MOZZARELLA

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400°F. Toss tomatoes, oil, vinegar, garlic, 1 Tbsp. oregano, and 1 tsp. salt on an 18x13" rimmed baking sheet.
• If using skinless, boneless chicken breasts, slice them into 4 cutlets: Holding knife blade parallel to board, cut breast in half, slicing along a long side, to make 2 pieces.
• Season chicken on all sides with pepper and remaining 1 tsp. salt and 1 tsp. oregano. Nestle chicken into tomato mixture. Roast until chicken is almost fully cooked through and tomatoes are starting to burst, 8-10 minutes. Arrange mozzarella rounds over chicken and tomatoes. Return to oven and roast until cheese is melted and chicken is fully cooked through, 2-4 minutes. Top with onion and peperoncini.
