Panko Chicken With Creamy Sauce Recipes

PANKO CRUSTED CHICKEN WITH LEMON CREAM SAUCE

Steps:

• Place the egg in a dish.
• In another dish place the flour, salt and pepper.
• In one last dish place the panko, lemon zest and parmesan cheese.
• Place the chicken between two pieces of plastic wrap or a ziploc bag and pound to 1/4 inch thick.
• Remove the breasts and slice them diagonally creating 4 chicken breasts instead of 2.
• Heat a skillet over medium-low heat and add 1 tablespoon of olive oil and 1 tablespoon of butter.
• Dredge the chicken in the flour mixture, then egg and lastly the panko.
• Add two breasts at a time to the skillet and cook 3-4 minutes per side or until golden and cooked through, adding more oil and butter to the pan as needed.
• Meanwhile, heat a saucepan over medium heat and add the butter, and concentrated stock.
• As the two begin to melt add the garlic and cook until everything is melted together and the garlic is fragrant, about 1 min.
• Add the flour and whisk vigorously. Everything will come together in a clump. Continue to whisk for an additional 30 seconds to 1 minute to cook out the flour-y taste.
• Quickly add the white wine and then the heavy cream.
• Season with salt and pepper.
• Whisk for a minute and reduce to a simmer, whisking occasionally, until thickened.
• Add the lemon zest, and lemon juice. Continue to whisk until everything is well incorporated.
• Remove from heat and serve over the chicken alongside sides such as asparagus, roasted mashed potatoes, fingerlings etc.

PANKO CHICKEN WITH CREAMY SAUCE

Steps:

• Combine chicken thighs and buttermilk in a bowl. Stir well. Cover and refrigerate for at least three hours. Overnight is okay, too. My chicken thighs were quite large, so I cut them in half to maximize the coverage of panko breadcrumbs (see note in Step 4).
• When ready to cook, pre-heat oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit.
• Combine panko breadcrumbs, thyme, smoked paprika, lemon zest and salt in a bowl and stir well.
• Remove each thigh piece from marinade and dredge in the panko mixture. Transfer to a plate. Note: Panko breadcrumbs are larger and crispier than regular breadcrumbs. I love their taste and texture -- I cut the thighs in half so I can use more crumbs. If you leave the thighs whole, you will probably need only 1 cup of crumbs.
• Heat 2 tablespoons of the olive oil in a large skillet/frying pan. Brown the thighs, on both sides - about 4-5 minutes per side. Depending on the size of your skillet, you may need to do this in more than one batch.
• Transfer partially-cooked thighs to a baking dish and pop in the pre-heated oven for 20 minutes.
• While the thighs are cooking, wipe out the skillet/frying pan you used for the chicken, so you can use it again. Hey, why wash pots and pans unnecessarily. And slice the onions and mushrooms, and chop the garlic and parsley.
• Melt the butter in the wiped-out skillet and add the last tablespoon of oil. Heat. Then add the sliced onions and cook for 2 minutes. Then add the sliced mushrooms and chopped garlic. Cook, stirring frequently, until everything has softened.
• Stir in the cream and parsley. Heat through.
• When serving, spoon sauce over the chicken.

CRISP PANKO CHICKEN CUTLETS W/TONKATSU SAUCE

Steps:

• With a sharp knife, lightly score both sides of the chicken breasts in a checkerboard pattern.
• Lay a sheet of plastic wrap over the breasts and pound until they are about ½ inch thick.
• Season with salt and pepper.
• Dredge the chicken in the flour and then dip it in the beaten eggs, shaking to remove excess.
• Dip each piece in the flour and egg again an then coat the chicken in the panko.
• In a deep, straight sided sauté pan, heat about ¼ inch vegetable oil over medium high heat until the oil ripples and simmers in the pan and instantly erupts into lots of bubbles when you dip a corner of the chicken breast into it.
• Immediately reduce the heat to medium low and fry the chicken in batches until cooked through and golden on both sides, 4 to 6 minutes per side.
• If the oil seems to cool down to much during frying, increase the heat a little to maintain a steady bubbling action.
• Drain the chicken on paper towels and serve it with abundant shredded cabbage and tonkatsu sauce.
• tonkatsu sauce: In a small saucepan, whisk together the Worcestershire, sugar, soy sauce and ketchup.
• Bring to a simmer over medium low heat.
• Reduce the heat to gentle simmer and whisk often until reduced to 1 cup, about 10 minutes.
• Whisk in mustard and allspice.
• Cool to room temperature.
• The sauce will keep for 1 week in the refrigerator.
