Best 8 Veal Chicken Or Fish Francese With Lemon And Wine Recipes

CHICKEN FRANCESE

Steps:

• Put the chicken breasts side by side on a cutting board and lay a piece of plastic wrap over them. Pound the chicken breasts with a flat meat mallet, until they are about 1/4-inch thick. Put some flour in a shallow platter and season with a fair amount of salt and pepper; mix with a fork to distribute evenly. In a wide bowl, beat the eggs with 3 tablespoons of water to make an egg wash. Heat the oil over medium-high flame in a large skillet.
• Dredge both sides of the chicken cutlets in the seasoned flour, and then dip them in the egg wash to coat completely, letting the excess drip off. When the oil is nice and hot, add the cutlets and fry for 2 minutes on each side until golden, turning once. Remove the chicken cutlets to a large platter in a single layer to keep warm.
• Toss the lemon slices into the pan and cook for 1 to 2 minutes, until fragrant. Add the wine, broth, and lemon juice, simmer for 5 minutes to reduce the sauce slightly. Roll the butter in some flour and add it to the skillet, this will thicken the sauce. Stir to incorporate and dissolve the flour. Reduce the heat to medium-low and return the chicken to the pan; place the lemon slices on top of the cutlets. Simmer gently for 2 minutes to heat the chicken through. Season with salt and pepper and garnish with chopped parsley before serving.

FISH, CHICKEN OR VEAL FRANCESE SAUCE RECIPE

Steps:

• Pat Fish dry if frozen with paper towels
• Beat the eggs with the cheese in a large bowl to blend.
• Mix the flour with the salt and pepper in a shallow pie plate. Place the fish in the flour, cornstarch and turn to coat on all sides.
• Dip into the egg mixture and lift to let the excess drip off. Return to the flour and turn again to coat on all sides.
• Note: (When dipping the chicken, I dip in egg again and back into the flour, so it's double dipped)
• Heat 2 tablespoons oil in a large skillet on medium heat.
• Cook until gold brown 5 minutes per side.
• Transfer to a large platter. Cover with foil.
• Heat about 2 inches of oil in a deep saucepan over medium heat.
• Working in batches, add the herbs, until crisp about 10 seconds on each side.
• Sprinkle with salt.
• Add the butter, wine, lemon juice, parsley to skillet and heat till bubbling.
• Season with salt, pepper.
• Add capers if using.
• Spoon a small amount of sauce over each piece of a fish top with fried herbs.
• A great side dish is a pasta with extra sauce.

FLOUNDER FRANCAISE OR CHICKEN FRANCAISE

Steps:

• In a large skillet, heat the oil and 1 tablespoons of butter over medium heat.
• Place the flour and all the seasonings in a plastic bag and shake to blend.
• Place the beaten eggs in a shallow dish.
• When the skillet is good and hot, put the flounder fillets in the bag one at a time and then dip in the egg. Coat them completely with the egg and place in skillet. The egg should sizzle immediately. If it doesn't, the oil isn't hot enough.
• Save 1 tablespoon of the flour mixture for the sauce.
• Fry over medium heat until brown on both sides, about 3 to 4 minutes per side. Add extra butter if you need to.
• Remove from skillet, keep warm.
• Discard any oil left in skillet and add the butter and the 1 tbsp of seasoned flour reserved from the flounder. Whisk until smooth. Add the rest of the sauce ingredients, stirring constantly until well blended. Bring to boil and cook 5 minutes, stirring frequently. If the sauce thickens too much, add more water- just 1 tsp at a time until you achieve the desired consistency.
• To serve place flounder over a bed of buttered rice (or whatever you're using) and pour a little sauce over each fillet. Garnish with lemon slices and parsley.

VEAL FRANCAISE

Steps:

• Prep the ingredients including juicing the one lemon and slicing the other.
• Flatten the veal cutlets to a uniform ¼ inch thickness by placing them between two sheets of wax paper and hitting them with a meat hammer, rolling pin or sauce pan.
• Season the cutlets with salt and pepper.
• If frying 4 cutlets at a time (see note below) dredge 4 of them in the flour, knocking off any exess flour and then into the beaten egg.
• Heat your fry pan up over medium-high heat. Add 1 tablespoon of olive oil to the pan and when hot, add the 4 coated veal cutlets.
• Cook for 2 minutes on one side, flip and another 2 minutes on the other.
• Transfer the 4 cutlets to a plate, cover with foil and keep warm.
• Repeat the same process with the other 4 cutlets.
• After removing the last 4 cutlets from the pan, reduce heat to medium and add the chicken stock, lemon juice and wine, stir to combine.
• After 3 minutes, whisk in the butter 1 tablespoon at a time and then the heavy cream if using.
• Return the reserved veal cutlets to the pan and cook for a couple of minutes to reheat and combine with the sauce.
• Add some sauce to each plate, top with 2 cutlets, a little more sauce and sprinkle with mince parsley.

VEAL, CHICKEN, OR FISH FRANCESE WITH LEMON AND WINE

Steps:

• Place a platter in a low oven to warm. Heat a very large nonstick skillet over medium heat. Add 1 tablespoon of the EVOO and 2 tablespoons of the butter to the skillet.
• Season the meat or fish with salt and pepper. Coat half the meat at a time in flour, then in the eggs, adding each piece directly to the hot fat in the pan. Sauté the cutlets or fillets for 2 to 3 minutes on each side, until golden and puffy. Transfer the cooked meat or fish to the warm platter and repeat with the remaining cutlets or fillets, using the remaining tablespoon of EVOO and 2 more tablespoons of the butter.
• Once all of the meat or fish has been cooked, add the nutmeg, the juice of half of the lemon, and the white wine to the pan. Scrape up the pan drippings with a whisk. Slice the remaining half lemon into thin disks and add to the sauce. Stir the capers and parsley and the remaining tablespoon of butter into the sauce. Turn off the heat. Shake the pan to combine the sauce. Arrange the lemon slices over the platter, then spoon the sauce evenly over the cutlets or fillets. Serve immediately with crusty bread and greens or spinach.

SIMPLE VEAL FRANCESE

Steps:

• Place veal pieces between 2 sheets of waxed paper and pound with a mallet until they're thin. Season with salt and pepper. Place the beaten egg in a wide, shallow bowl. Place the flour on a wide plate. Dip the pounded veal in the egg. Remove, letting the excess egg drip off. Place each scallop in the flour, and coat lightly. Remove the scallops from the flour, and hold them in a single layer.
• Add 4 tablespoons of the butter to a saute pan large enough to hold the 6 scallops in a single layer. Melt the butter over medium-high heat. When it foams, add the veal. Saute, turning once, until the scallops are golden on the outside. Remove the scallops and hold in a single layer.
• Spill the butter out of the saute pan, and return the pan to high heat. Add the white wine and reduce it to 1/2 cup. Turn heat to very low. Swirl in the butter until the sauce is thickened. Add the reserved veal to the pan, turning them until they are coated with the sauce. Divide scallops among 2 plates, pour remaining sauce over them, serve immediately.
