Paneed Chicken Recipes

CHARLES' COUNTRY PAN FRIED CHICKEN

Steps:

• In a bowl or resealable plastic bag, season the chicken with 1 tablespoon salt, 1/2 teaspoon pepper and the garlic powder. Cover or seal and refrigerate overnight or up to 24 hours.
• Pour 1/2 to 1 inch of oil into a deep 12-inch cast-iron skillet and heat until a pinch of flour sizzles upon contact (about 360 degrees F). Set a wire rack on top of a rimmed baking sheet and set aside. In a bowl, whisk together the milk and eggs. Place the flour in a separate bowl. Dip the chicken in the egg wash, drain off the excess, then dredge in the flour, shaking off the excess.
• Working in batches, place the chicken skin-side down in the skillet and fry for 3 minutes without moving. Continue to fry, turning the chicken every 1 to 2 minutes to ensure even browning and cooking, until the chicken is cooked through, 11 to 15 minutes. Drain on the rack and serve hot, warm or at room temperature.

CRISPY PANKO CHICKEN BREASTS

Steps:

• Pound chicken breasts, one at a time in a resealable freezer bag, until about 1/2-inch thick. Lightly beat egg in a shallow bowl. Combine panko crumbs, salt, pepper, garlic powder and onion powder in a separate shallow bowl. Dip chicken breasts in egg until coated, drip off excess and dip in panko mixture. Press chicken into crumbs until fully coated.
• Heat oil in a large skillet on medium high heat. Transfer chicken to pan and cook about 2 to 3 minutes per side or until chicken is brown, crispy and fully cooked.

FUSILLI WITH SHRIMP AND PANEED CHICKEN

Steps:

• Place eggs in shallow bowl and beat to blend. Mix breadcrumbs, 1/3 cup parsley, 3/4 teaspoon salt and 1/2 teaspoon pepper in another shallow bowl. Dip chicken into eggs, then into crumb mixture, turning to coat completely.
• Heat 3 tablespoons oil in heavy large skillet over medium-high heat. Add chicken; sauté until cooked through, about 4 minutes per side. Transfer to plate. Discard oil in skillet; add 1 tablespoon oil. Add shrimp; sauté over medium-high heat until just cooked through, about 3 minutes. Using slotted spoon, transfer shrimp to plate with chicken. Add wine to skillet; boil until reduced to 1/2 cup, about 2 minutes. Add cream; boil until sauce thickens slightly, about 3 minutes. Mix in cayenne and Parmesan.
• Cut chicken into 1/2-inch pieces. Return chicken, shrimp and any collected juices to sauce in skillet. Stir over medium heat until heated through.
• Meanwhile, cook fusilli in large pot of boiling salted water until just tender but still firm to bite.
• Drain pasta. Add to skillet; toss to coat. Season with salt and pepper. Transfer to large bowl. Sprinkle with 2 tablespoons parsley and serve.

WHOLESOME HERB PANEED CHICKEN BREAST

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Lightly grease a baking sheet with olive oil.
• Toast the bread so that it is very done (typically toasting twice in a toaster oven will do). Let cool. In a food processor, grind the toast into crumbs. Add parmesan, rosemary, pepper and salt. Set aside bread crumbs in a pie plate.
• Between two pieces of plastic wrap, pound out the chicken to about 1/4 inch thickness. You can use a rolling pin or a unopened bottle of wine. Trim the excess fat. Cut into 1 inch wide strips.
• In another pie plate, pour buttermilk. Dregde chicken through milk and then through bread crumbs. Place on baking sheet.
• Bake at 350 degrees for about 15 minutes. Enjoy with a salad, fresh sides (my choice is my Cocoaed Strawberries and Chilied Green Beans).
