SUN-DRIED TOMATO & VEGGIE STUFFED CHICKEN CUTLETS
Sun-dried tomatoes are the star of this dish! They really add a nice tanginess to the chicken. But the caramelized onions add a hint of sweetness that cuts the tart of the tomatoes. With the perfect amount of seasoning, this is a simple but elegant dinner the family will love.

CRISP STUFFED CHICKEN CUTLETS
The chef Alexandra Raij modeled this recipe on a traditional Spanish dish called flamenquines, in which flattened chicken breasts are stuffed with ham and cheese, then rolled up, coated in egg and bread crumbs and fried. Her recipe mostly follows that lead, but instead of pounding the breasts and rolling them up with the stuffing, she used thin cutlets of chicken and layered the stuffing between two of them, sealing them together with an egg mixture. Fried to a golden hue, the dish is both crunchy and greaseless. The crumbs insulate the delicate meat and help keep it from overcooking.

Steps:
- Season chicken lightly with salt and pepper. In a bowl, whisk together the egg whites, cornstarch, parsley and garlic until lumps dissolve and mixture is slightly foamy. Set aside.
- Brush one side of each chicken cutlet with mustard. Divide cheese and ham among 3 cutlets and place on mustard side. Top each with 1 tablespoon sauerkraut and 1/8 teaspoon caraway seeds. Arrange remaining 3 cutlets mustard-side down on top of sauerkraut to sandwich the ham and cheese. Press to seal.
- Dip stuffed cutlets in egg white mixture and dredge in bread crumbs. (You can do this several hours ahead and refrigerate until needed).
- Heat oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Carefully place cutlets in hot pan and fry until dark brown and cooked through, 2 to 3 minutes a side. Transfer to a paper towel-lined plate to drain; serve hot, with additional sauerkraut on the side.

CHICKEN CUTLETS WITH BURRATA AND MELTED BABY TOMATO SAUCE
Scott Conant tested the recipes in his newest cookbook, Peace, Love, and Pasta, in a way he never has before: in his home kitchen, surrounded by his family. The Chopped judge wrote the entire book during quarantine. "It really represents this transition I've had over time, from cooking all my meals in restaurants to cooking at home for my children," he says. Instead of filling the pages with complicated, chef-y recipes, he decided to share takes on Italian-American classics, like these chicken cutlets with burrata and tomato sauce - a simple twist on chicken parm. "The flavors are so vibrant," Scott says. And because the cutlets are cooked on the stove, not baked, they're faster than classic chicken parm, too!

Steps:
- In a shallow bowl, combine the flour and a pinch of salt. In a second shallow bowl, beat the eggs with a splash of water and a pinch of salt. In a third shallow bowl, combine the panko, oregano, grated Parmigiano-Reggiano, red pepper flakes and a pinch of salt. Lightly sprinkle salt over the chicken thighs, then dredge 1 seasoned chicken thigh in the flour, making sure to coat both sides evenly. Shake off the excess flour, then dip the thigh into the seasoned egg wash, making sure to coat both sides evenly. Let the excess egg mixture drip off, then dip the thigh into the panko mixture, pressing down to coat the chicken thoroughly with the breadcrumb mixture on both sides. Set aside and repeat with the rest of the chicken.
- Heat the oil in a large sauté pan set over medium heat and add the breaded chicken cutlets, working in batches if necessary. Cook until the breading is golden brown on the bottom, 7 to 9 minutes, then flip and add the butter and thyme to the pan. Cook the second side of the cutlets until golden brown, basting with the browning butter, 3 to 4 minutes. Remove the cutlets to a paper towel-lined plate and lightly sprinkle salt over each one. Repeat until all the cutlets have been fried.
- Divide the cutlets among four dinner plates. Spoon melted baby tomato sauce over the top, then add a few spoonfuls of burrata on top of the tomatoes. Season with additional salt to taste and serve immediately.
- In a sauté pan, heat the oil slightly over low heat. Add the garlic slices, oregano and red pepper flakes and sauté for 30 seconds. Before the garlic has taken on any color, add the cherry tomatoes to the pan, turn the heat up to medium high, season with a pinch of salt and continue to sauté as the tomatoes release their juices. Once the juices and the pectin from the tomatoes have combined with the oil and have started to form a nice sauce (about 8 to 10 minutes), stir in the basil. Remove from the heat and adjust the seasoning with salt. Serve immediately, or store in an airtight container in the refrigerator for 4 to 5 days until ready to use.
CHICKEN BREASTS WITH TOMATOES AND CAPERS
This recipe was originally developed by Pierre Franey in 1991 for the 60-Minute Gourmet column, a weekly feature dedicated to Times-worthy dishes that were easy, quick and inexpensive. This recipe fit the bill perfectly, and it still does. Just sauté the chicken breasts until they are lightly browned. Then add shallots and garlic, tarragon, tomatoes, vinegar, capers, white wine and tomato paste. Stir well and cook for about 9 minutes more. That's it.

Tips:
- Choose the right chicken cutlets. Look for cutlets that are about 1/2-inch thick and boneless, skinless. You can also use chicken breasts, but you will need to pound them thin to about 1/2-inch thick.
- Use a sharp knife to score the chicken cutlets. This will help the marinade penetrate the chicken and make it more flavorful.
- Don't overcook the chicken. Chicken cutlets are very thin, so they cook quickly. Overcooking will make them dry and tough.
- Use a flavorful marinade. The marinade will help to add flavor to the chicken and keep it moist. You can use a variety of marinades, but some good options include olive oil, lemon juice, garlic, herbs, and spices.
- Cook the chicken cutlets over medium heat. This will help to prevent them from burning.
- Serve the chicken cutlets immediately. They are best when served hot and fresh.
Conclusion:
Tomato and garlic stuffed chicken cutlets are a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for a weeknight meal. The chicken is tender and juicy, and the tomato and garlic stuffing is flavorful and savory. This dish is sure to please everyone at your table.
