Mustard Herb Chicken Cutlets And Garlic Spinach Recipes

CHICKEN CUTLETS WITH MUSTARD-HERB SAUCE

Steps:

• Slice the chicken breasts in half horizontally so that you have 8 thinner cutlets. Season both sides with salt and pepper.
• Heat 1 tablespoon each butter and olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add half of the cutlets and cook until golden brown and cooked through, 3 to 4 minutes per side. Remove to a plate. Cook the remaining cutlets in 1 more tablespoon each butter and olive oil, then remove them to the plate.
• Reduce the heat to medium. Add the garlic and cook, stirring, until golden, 1 minute. Carefully pour in the wine, then just let it bubble and cook until it's reduced by half, about 1 minute.
• Stir in the mustard, then pour in the chicken broth. Add the remaining 2 tablespoons butter and cook, stirring, until the sauce thickens, 1 to 2 minutes. Add the herbs and season with salt and pepper.
• Return the chicken cutlets to the pan, turning them in the sauce to coat. Serve with buttered noodles, spooning the sauce over the top. Garnish with more herbs.

MUSTARDY CHICKEN WITH SPINACH

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
• Stir together the mustard, oil, vinegar, honey, garlic, 3/4 teaspoon salt and 3/4 teaspoon pepper in a large bowl. Toss the chicken with the marinade to coat, then transfer the chicken to a 9- by 13-inch baking dish. Roast, uncovered, until the chicken is browned and cooked through, about 45 minutes.
• Transfer the chicken to serving plates. Add the spinach and butter to the hot baking dish, tossing with tongs to wilt the spinach and coat it with the pan drippings, about 2 minutes. Serve the spinach alongside the chicken.

CRISPY HERB-CRUSTED CHICKEN CUTLETS

Steps:

• Put the flour in a wide, shallow bowl and season with a pinch of kosher salt and pepper. In a second shallow bowl, mix the milk and egg. In a third shallow bowl, combine the panko, oregano, rosemary and thyme with a pinch of salt and pepper.
• Bread the cutlets by dredging them first in the seasoned flour, then dunking them in the egg/milk mixture and finally by pressing them into the herby breadcrumbs so they are completely coated. Set aside.
• Heat the butter and vegetable oil in a large heavy-bottomed skillet over medium-high heat. Once the butter has melted and the oil is hot, add the cutlets and cook until golden and crisp, 3 to 4 minutes per side. Remove to a paper towel-lined plate and sprinkle over the flaky sea salt. Serve immediately.

CHICKEN CUTLETS WITH MUSTARD

Steps:

• On a plate, place the bread crumbs, salt, thyme, dried tarragon and pepper and mix with your hands until thoroughly combined. Set aside.
• Place the chicken breasts between 2 pieces of wax paper and use the back of a small heavy skillet to lightly pound them until they are somewhat flattened and even in thickness. Slather each cutlet with 1 tablespoon of the mustard and roll each in the bread crumbs to coat.
• Heat 2 large skillets over medium heat and add 1 tablespoon of the oil to each. Place 2 cutlets in each skillet and cook, turning once, until the breasts are cooked through and deeply browned, about 7 to 10 minutes. (Lower the heat if the crust begins to brown too quickly.)
• Transfer the cutlets to a platter and garnish with the minced tarragon and lemon wedges. Serve immediately.

SKILLET MUSTARD CHICKEN WITH SPINACH AND CARROTS

Steps:

• Heat oven to 425 degrees and position a rack in the center. In a small bowl, stir together garlic, salt, coriander and pepper. Rub all over chicken, then set aside to rest at room temperature while you prepare vegetables.
• Thinly slice the scallions. Peel carrots if you like, and cut into 1/2-inch pieces (about 1 cup).
• Heat a 12-inch ovenproof skillet over high. When hot, add 2 tablespoons butter. When the butter is melted, place chicken skin-side down in skillet. Cook, without moving, until skin has browned, about 4 minutes. Transfer chicken, skin-side up, to a plate.
• Reduce heat to medium-high and stir in remaining 2 tablespoons butter, along with scallions, oregano sprig and a pinch of salt. Cook until softened and lightly browned, 3 minutes, then stir in stock, wine and carrots. Bring liquid to a simmer. Cover pan and cook, 5 minutes.
• Meanwhile, brush the chicken all over with the mustard. Nestle chicken into skillet skin-side up.
• Transfer skillet to oven and cook, uncovered, until chicken is cooked through, about 20 minutes. Remove pan from oven and transfer chicken to a plate.
• If pan juices are watery, bring to a simmer over high heat and cook until thickened. Pluck out the oregano sprig and discard. Stir spinach, dill and a pinch of salt into pan, tossing to coat with pan juices and wilt greens. Spoon spinach, carrots, and pan juices over the chicken, drizzle with lemon juice, and serve.
