CHICKEN FRENCH – serves 4
CHICKEN FRENCH – serves 4
Chicken French is a Rochester, NY regional favorite. Invented at a local restaurant, it’s on the menu of most Rochester eateries. This is a very simple “take” on the recipe.
Ingredients:
¼ cup of searing flour*
½ fresh sliced lemon
1 whole boneless chicken breast (partially frozen to make it easier to slice)
4-5 pats of butter
½ cup of white wine
½ cup chicken broth
¼ cup of searing flour*
½ fresh sliced lemon
1 whole boneless chicken breast (partially frozen to make it easier to slice)
4-5 pats of butter
½ cup of white wine
½ cup chicken broth
Slice the chicken, longways, into several thin cutlets. Pound them between two pieces of Saran to flatten. Dredge them in the searing flour. Brown them on both sides in a large frying pan in olive oil. Remove to a platter ‘til all the cutlets are browned.
Melt the butter in the same pan, add the lemons, brown for about 2 minutes. Add the wine carefully. Let the alcohol steam off. Put the chicken back in the pan with the liquid and lemon slices. Lower heat to simmer. Add the chicken broth and reduce this sauce for couple minutes.
The kitchen will smell wonderful and the family will wander in asking “what’s for dinner?”
Serve the chicken French over a plate of pasta, dressed only with a little olive oil or serve it over a nice dollop of mashed potatoes. Drizzle the sauce over all.
*In Rochester, we can buy searing flour at our local supermarket. If you cannot, just add salt and pepper to regular all purpose flour.
