Paillards are chicken breasts that have been flattened to an even thinness with a meat mallet or rolling pin. They cook exceptionally quickly on the grill, which prevents them from drying out.

Number Of Ingredients 8

1 cup sour-orange or orange marmalade
2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
1 tablespoon fresh orange juice
4 bay leaves
Coarse salt
Freshly ground pepper, to taste
12 chicken paillards (or 6 chicken breast cutlets, halved horizontally and pounded to 1/4 inch thick)
2 oranges (1 thinly sliced into rounds and 1 cut into wedges)

Steps:

  • Combine marmalade, lemon juice, orange juice, bay leaves, 1 teaspoon salt, and pepper in a bowl. Reserve 1/3 cup glaze for serving.
  • Preheat grill to medium-high. (If you are using a charcoal grill, coals are ready when you can hold your hand 5 inches above grill for just 3 to 4 seconds.) Season chicken with salt and pepper. Place chicken on grill, and brush with half the glaze. Grill 3 minutes. Flip chicken, and brush with remaining glaze. Grill until chicken is cooked through, about 3 minutes more. Transfer to a platter.
  • Place oranges on grill. Cook, flipping once, until softened, 1 to 2 minutes per side. Add to platter. Serve with reserved glaze for drizzling over chicken.

Not bad, but not amazing. I think I'll stick to my old grilled chicken recipe.

I loved the unique flavor of this dish! The sour orange marinade really made the chicken stand out. I served it with a side of rice and vegetables, and it was a perfect meal.

This dish was a bit too sour for my taste, but I think that's just a personal preference. The chicken itself was cooked perfectly, though.

The chicken was a bit dry, but the marinade was delicious. I think I'll try it again with a different cut of chicken.

Just made this dish for dinner and it was fantastic! The chicken was moist and flavorful, and the orange marinade added a wonderful citrusy zing. I will definitely be making this again!

This grilled chicken dish was surprisingly easy to make and turned out absolutely delicious! The sour orange marinade really infused the chicken with a unique and flavorful tanginess. I served it with some roasted vegetables and a side of quinoa, and
