CHICKEN PARM SANDWICHES



Chicken Parm Sandwiches image

I grew up with chicken cutlets being the norm once a week. One of the first recipes I taught my nephew Blake was how to make this crispy chicken with cheese. It's one of his favorites - and auntie's, too!

Provided by Jackie Rothong

Categories     main-dish

Time 35m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 15

4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts (4 ounces each)
1/2 cup olive oil
4 tablespoons unsalted butter
2 cups panko
1/2 bunch basil, leaves only
1/2 cup freshly grated Parmigiano-Reggiano
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
1 cup all-purpose flour
2 large eggs
2 tablespoons Dijon mustard
2 cups passata (tomato puree)
1 clove garlic, grated
2 fresh basil leaves
Four 6- to 8-inch Italian rolls, preferably crusty, split in half
8-ounce ball fresh mozzarella, thinly sliced

Steps:

  • Preheat the broiler. Place wire racks over 2 sheet pans. Cut two 12-inch sheets of plastic wrap.
  • Place one sheet of plastic on a clean cutting board. Put one chicken piece in the center of the plastic and top with the other sheet of plastic. Pound the chicken with the flat side of a meat mallet, starting in the center and working your way to the edges, until the chicken is 1/4-inch thick.
  • Heat the oil and butter in a large nonstick skillet over medium-low heat.
  • Meanwhile, combine the panko, all but 2 of the basil leaves and Parmigiano-Reggiano in a food processor and pulse until combined. Season with salt and pepper. Transfer the mixture to a small sheet pan or plate. Place the flour on a second small sheet pan or plate and season with salt and pepper. Whisk the eggs, mustard and 2 tablespoons of water together in a shallow bowl until combined. Season with salt and pepper.
  • Begin by dipping one piece of chicken into the flour, then into the egg mixture, then into the breadcrumb mixture to coat completely. Set the breaded cutlet on one of the wire racks. Repeat with the remaining chicken.
  • Raise the heat under the skillet to medium-high. Cook the cutlets in two batches until golden brown, 3 to 4 minutes per side. Transfer to the second wire rack and sprinkle with salt.
  • While the chicken is frying, prepare the sauce.
  • Combine the passata, garlic and reserved 2 leaves of basil in a medium saucepan over medium heat. Season with salt and pepper. Cook until warmed through, about 5 minutes. Remove from the heat.
  • Place the sliced rolls on a sheet pan. Broil the rolls until just toasted, 30 seconds to 1 minute.
  • Top each fried chicken cutlet with the sauce and a few slices of mozzarella. Broil until the cheese is brown and bubbly, 3 to 4 minutes.
  • Place each chicken parm cutlet onto the bottom half of a roll. (If chicken is too wide, cut lengthwise and stack the chicken so it all fits.) Top with more sauce and the top buns. Slice in half and take a crunchy bite!

Provided by Food Network Kitchen

Categories     appetizer

Time 1h

Yield 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 15

2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil, plus more for frying
6 cloves garlic, 4 thinly sliced and 2 finely grated
1 28-ounce can whole peeled San Marzano tomatoes, crushed
1/2 teaspoon dried oregano
Kosher salt and freshly ground pepper
6 chicken tenders (8 ounces each)
1 cup all-purpose flour
2 large eggs, beaten
1 cup breadcrumbs
1 14-inch loaf semolina or other crusty Italian bread
6 tablespoons unsalted butter, at room temperature
3 tablespoons minced fresh parsley
6 slices low-moisture mozzarella cheese
1 cup shredded low-moisture mozzarella cheese
Grated Parmesan cheese, for topping

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 425˚ F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Make the sauce: Heat the olive oil in a medium saucepan over medium-high heat. Add the sliced garlic and cook until golden, 1 to 2 minutes. Add the tomatoes, oregano and a big pinch each of salt and pepper. Cook, stirring occasionally, until reduced to about 2 cups, 12 to 15 minutes. Season with salt and pepper and set aside.
  • Meanwhile, flatten the chicken tenders using the base of your hand; season with salt and pepper. Put the flour, eggs and breadcrumbs in three separate shallow bowls. Dip the chicken in the flour, then in the egg, shaking off the excess, then in the breadcrumbs to coat. Heat 1/2 inch of olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the chicken, in batches if necessary, and cook, turning, until golden brown and crisp, 6 to 8 minutes. Remove to a paper towel-lined plate and season with salt.
  • Trim the ends off the bread loaf. Cut the bread on an angle into 12 slices, leaving the bottom of the loaf intact. (You can position chopsticks along the long sides of the bread to keep from cutting all the way through.) Transfer to the baking sheet.
  • Combine the butter, grated garlic, 2 tablespoons parsley and a pinch each of salt and pepper in a bowl. Spread between the bread slices and on the ends of the loaf.
  • Fill every other bread slice with tomato sauce, starting with the first slice. Stuff each sauce-filled slice with a chicken tender and a mozzarella slice; spoon more tomato sauce around the chicken. Sprinkle the shredded mozzarella over the loaf.
  • Bake until the cheese melts and the bread is toasted, 15 to 18 minutes. Pull apart or slice into individual sandwiches. Sprinkle with Parmesan and the remaining 1 tablespoon parsley. Serve with the remaining tomato sauce.

I came up with this one on the fly when I was a cook at a golf club to use as a daily special. It quickly became a customer favorite! Very simple to make and very tasty. Can also be used as a main course, without the bun, or on top of spaghetti. I also used to lightly toast the kaiser rolls in the oven for a little something extra!

  • If you don't have time to make your own sauce, you can use a good quality store-bought sauce. Just be sure to simmer it for a few minutes to let the flavors meld.
  • Be careful not to overcook the chicken, or it will become dry and tough. Cook it until it is just cooked through, then remove it from the heat and let it rest for a few minutes before slicing.
  • Use a good quality bread for the sandwiches. A sturdy bread like Italian bread or French bread will hold up well to the sauce and cheese.
  • Don't be afraid to experiment with different toppings. You can add roasted peppers, mushrooms, or onions to the sandwiches. You can also use different cheeses, such as mozzarella, provolone, or fontina.
