2 c unsalted chicken stock
1/2 carrot, cut into 1 inch pieces
1/2 celery stalk, cut into 1-inch pieces
1/4 onion, halved
1 bay leaf
1 clove garlic, crushed
4`` skinless, boneless chicken breast halves, 6 ounces each
1/2 tsp kosher salt, divided
1/2 tsp black pepper, divided
3 Tbsp all-purpose flour
2 Tbsp olive oil, divided
2 tsp butter, divided
1 c mushrooms, quartered
1/2 c green onion, sliced
1 Tbsp water
2 1/2 tsp cornstarch
1 Tbsp fresh tarragon, chopped

Steps:

  • 1. Place the first 6 ingredients in a saucepan; bring to a boil. Cook 6 minutes or until reduced to 1 1/4 cups. Remove the solids with a slotted spoon; discard.
  • 2. Cut the chicken breast halves in half horizontally to form 8 cutlets. Sprinkle evenly with 1/4 teaspoon salt and 1/4 teaspoon pepper.
  • 3. Place the flour in a shallow dish; dredge the chicken in flour.
  • 4. Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add 1 tablespoon oil and 1 teaspoon butter to the pan; swirl until the butter melts. Add 4 cutlets to the pan; cook 2 minutes on each side or until golden. Remove from pan; keep warm. Repeat the procedure with the remaining 1 tablespoon oil, 1 teaspoon butter, and 4 cutlets.
  • 5. Return the skillet to medium-high heat. Add mushrooms and onions; cook for 5 minutes or until browned, stirring occasionally. Add the stock mixture; bring to a boil, scraping the pan to loosen the browned bits.
  • 6. Combine 1 tablespoon water and cornstarch in a small bowl. Stir the cornstarch mixture into the stock mixture; cook 1 minute or until the sauce thickens. Stir in the remaining 1/4 teaspoon salt, remaining 1/4 teaspoon pepper, and tarragon. Spoon the sauce over the chicken.

CHICKEN CUTLETS WITH MUSHROOM DRESSING



Chicken Cutlets With Mushroom Dressing image

This French-inspired chicken dish isn't exactly weeknight fare, but it is sophisticated comfort food that is well worth the effort. First, boneless chicken thighs or breasts are pounded into cutlets, marinated in garlic, lemon juice and thyme (up to 6 hours, but even a short sit will do nicely), then breaded and fried. They are then dressed in a rich yet delightfully piquant sauce of mushrooms, shallots, garlic, Dijon mustard, white wine and balsamic vinegar that is a welcome contrast to the richness of the fried chicken. Serve with a crisp green salad (and a potato gratin or pommes Anna if you're feeling particularly ambitious). If you'd prefer to fry the chicken 30 minutes or so in advance and keep it in the oven at 175 degrees, that'll work beautifully. As for what to drink, this dish pairs perfectly with the pinot noirs of the Côte Chalonnaise on the southern end of Burgundy. Bon appétit!

Time 1h15m

Yield 4 to 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 16

3 tablespoons lemon juice
4 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
4 cloves garlic, minced
6 boneless, skinless chicken thighs, about 2 pounds, pounded flat
Salt and ground black pepper
6 sprigs fresh thyme plus 1 tablespoon thyme leaves
1/3 cup chopped shallots
12 ounces small button mushrooms, quartered
2 tablespoons Dijon mustard
1/4 cup dry white wine
1 tablespoon good quality balsamic vinegar
1/3 cup flour
2 eggs, beaten
3/4 cup dry bread crumbs
4 tablespoons grapeseed oil
6 lemon wedges

Steps:

  • Combine lemon juice, half the olive oil and half the garlic in a shallow dish that can hold chicken in a single layer. Add chicken, turn to coat, dust with salt and pepper and top with thyme sprigs. Cover and refrigerate about 6 hours.
  • About 45 minutes before serving, heat remaining olive oil in a 10-inch skillet. Add shallots and remaining garlic and sauté on medium until soft. Add mushrooms and sauté, stirring, until they are moist and softened, starting to color and have exuded juices. Shut off heat. Dissolve mustard in wine and mix in vinegar. Reheat mushrooms, add mustard mixture and cook on medium-high until liquid has reduced to thickness of heavy cream. Season with salt and pepper; remove from heat.
  • Place flour in a shallow bowl, eggs in another bowl and bread crumbs in a third. Discard thyme sprigs from chicken. Dip chicken thighs, 1 at a time, lightly in flour, then egg, then crumbs to coat both sides. Set on a plate. Heat grapeseed oil in a large skillet, preferably cast iron. Sauté chicken cutlets on medium until golden brown, about 3 minutes per side in 2 shifts. Remove to a serving platter as they are done. Tent with foil to keep warm.
  • Reheat mushrooms and add thyme leaves. Place some mushroom mixture on each cutlet along with a lemon wedge and serve.

CHICKEN CUTLETS WITH MUSHROOM SAUCE



Chicken Cutlets With Mushroom Sauce image

This recipe came from my American Heritage cookbook. Juicy and tender breaded chicken with a wonderfully rich and creamy sauce. My father's favorite (and that's saying alot)! Simple to make but doesn't taste like it. I hope you enjoy it as much as we do.

Categories     Chicken Breast

Time 50m

Yield 4-8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 14

4 large boneless skinless chicken breasts, halved lengthwise
1/4 cup all-purpose flour
2 beaten eggs
2 tablespoons milk
1 cup fine breadcrumbs
1/4 cup olive oil or 1/4 cup vegetable oil
2 tablespoons butter
1/2 cup sliced fresh mushrooms
1/4 cup chopped onion
1 tablespoon all-purpose flour
1 cup milk
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon pepper
1/2 cup sour cream

Steps:

  • Pound chicken to 1/2" thickness--I do this between cellophane to avoid any mess. Coat with flour. Dip in egg/milk mixture. Coat with bread crumbs. Fry 2-4 at a time in hot oil until golden (about 5 minute per side). Remove and keep warm while frying the rest. Serve with MUSHROOM SAUCE.
  • MUSHROOM SAUCE:.
  • Cook mushrooms and onion in butter until tender. Stir in flour. Add milk, salt and pepper. Cook and stir until boiling and thickening. Stir in sour cream and heat through--Do Not Boil.

Tips:

  • Make sure the chicken cutlets are pounded thin and evenly so they cook quickly and evenly.
  • Season the chicken cutlets generously with salt and pepper before dredging them in flour. This will help to enhance the flavor of the chicken.
  • Use a heavy-bottomed skillet to sear the chicken cutlets. This will help to prevent them from sticking and will also create a nice crust.
  • Cook the chicken cutlets over medium-high heat until they are golden brown and cooked through. Do not overcrowd the skillet, or the chicken will not cook evenly.
  • While the chicken cutlets are cooking, make the tarragon mushroom sauce. Sauté the mushrooms in butter until they are tender and browned. Then add the tarragon, white wine, and chicken broth. Bring the sauce to a simmer and cook until it has thickened.
  • Serve the chicken cutlets with the tarragon mushroom sauce. Garnish with fresh tarragon leaves.

Conclusion:

Chicken cutlets with tarragon mushroom sauce is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for a weeknight meal. The chicken is tender and juicy, and the sauce is rich and flavorful. This dish is sure to please everyone at the table.
