Best 6 Chicken Romano With Lacinato Kale And Romanesco Recipes

EASY CHICKEN ROMANO RECIPE

Steps:

• Beat eggs in a large low dish
• Place flour in another large low dish and mix in some salt and pepper.
• In a third large low dish combine Parmesan cheese with bread crumbs.
• Dredge the chicken, starting with the flour, then moving to the eggs, and finally to the cheese and bread crumbs bowl.
• Set on a plate as you continue with the remaining chicken cutlets.
• Heat 1/4 cup of olive oil on medium heat in a large skillet.
• Working in batches fry the chicken in the skillet until golden brown on both sides. About 2 minutes on each side.
• Serve with fresh lemon wedges.

CHICKEN IN ROMANESCO SAUCE

Steps:

• Char the bell peppers under a broiler or over a gas flame, turning occasionally. Place the peppers in a bowl, cover with plastic wrap and let cool. Peel off the charred skin and remove the seeds.
• Meanwhile, toast the almonds in a pan or in the oven until golden, then let cool.
• Place the roasted bell peppers in a food processor along with the almonds, chicken stock, parsley, lemon and orange zest and juice, the garlic, chile pepper and red onion. Grate the tomato on the large holes of a box grater. Discard the skin and add the tomato pulp to the food processor. Puree until smooth.
• Meanwhile, heat the EVOO in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Sprinkle the chicken with paprika, salt and pepper and cook until browned, 3 to 4 minutes per side. Add the sherry to the skillet and scrape up any browned bits from the bottom with a wooden spoon. Stir in the roasted pepper sauce, reduce the heat and simmer, partially covered, until the chicken is cooked through, 10 to 12 minutes. Transfer the chicken to plates and spoon the sauce over top.

ROASTED CHICKEN WITH KALE AND TOMATO PANZANELLA

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 425 degrees, with racks in upper and lower thirds. Toss garlic, bread, cheese, and tomatoes with 3 tablespoons oil; season with salt and pepper. Arrange in a single layer on a rimmed baking sheet. Rub chicken with remaining 2 tablespoons oil; season with salt and pepper. Place on bread mixture, skin-sides up, along with thyme. Roast in lower third, flipping chicken and bread mixture once, 25 minutes. Meanwhile, remove ribs from kale; tear into 2-inch pieces. Drizzle with oil and season with salt and pepper.
• Switch oven to broil; remove thyme from baking sheet. Transfer chicken to a plate. Scatter kale over bread mixture; arrange chicken on top. Broil until chicken skin is golden and crisp, 2 to 4 minutes. Transfer chicken to serving plates; toss bread mixture and serve, with more cheese.

CREAMED LACINATO KALE

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
• Heat 1 tablespoon oil in a large braiser over high heat. When the oil begins to smoke, add half the kale to the pan. Season with salt and cook, stirring, until the leaves take on a deep green hue and lose 50 to 75 percent of their volume, 2 to 3 minutes. Transfer the kale to a large bowl with the spinach. Repeat with the remaining oil and kale, adding it to the bowl as done.
• Return the braiser to high heat and add the cream. Simmer the cream until it reduces to about 1 3/4 cups, about 5 minutes. Add the cream to the greens and stir to combine. Add the Parmesan, Gruyere, Worcestershire, chile flakes, nutmeg, lemon zest and juice and salt to taste. Return the greens to the braiser and top with the panko and a drizzle of oil. Bake until warmed, 12 to 15 minutes.

OVEN BAKED PARMESAN-ROMANO CHICKEN

Steps:

• Heat oven to 375 degrees F.
• Combine breadcrumbs, cheeses, black pepper, salt, parsley and paprika in shallow bowl; set aside.
• Combine butter and garlic in a 9-inch pie pan.
• Dip 1 chicken breast at a time into butter mixture; place into breadcrumb mixture, turning to coat evenly.
• Place chicken breasts into ungreased 13x9-inch glass baking dish.
• Drizzle with any remaining butter mixture.
• Bake for 25-35 minutes or until chicken is lightly browned and juices run clear when pierced with a fork. (I turn mine once during the baking).

LACINATO KALE AND LEEK FLAN

Steps:

• Wash leeks in a bowl of cold water, then lift out and drain well. Cook leeks in butter and oil in a 5- to 6-quart heavy pot over moderate heat, stirring occasionally, until softened, about 6 minutes. Stir in kale and cook, covered, until slightly wilted, about 2 minutes. Add broth and water and simmer, uncovered, until kale is tender, about 8 minutes.
• Purée kale mixture in 2 batches in a blender until very smooth (use caution when blending hot liquids). Pour through a fine-mesh sieve into a bowl, pressing on and discarding solids.
• Preheat oven to 325°F.
• Bring cream and cheese just to a boil, then remove from heat. Steep, covered, 10 minutes.
• Whisk together whole egg, yolks, and kale purée in a bowl. Pour cream mixture through fine-mesh sieve into kale mixture and whisk to combine. Divide among buttered ramekins and bake, uncovered, in a water bath until set, 30 to 35 minutes (centers will still be slightly wobbly).
• Transfer ramekins with tongs to a rack and cool 5 minutes. If desired, invert custards onto plates by first running a thin sharp knife around edge of each ramekin.
