Paillard is another word for cutlet, or a piece of meat that has been pounded thin to ensure quick and juicy cooking results. Serve these chicken paillards with a garlic broccoli toss and red potatoes with chives.
Ingredients
- 4 chicken breasts, boneless, skinless
- 1/3 cup all-purpose flour
- 1 tbsp chopped fresh parsley
- 1 tsp salt
- 1/2 tsp pepper
- 2 tbsp butter
- 1/2 cup apple cider
- 1 tsp crumbled dried sage
- 1 tsp cider vinegar
Preparation
Place each chicken breast between plastic wrap; pound to about 1/4-inch (5 mm) thickness.
In shallow dish, combine flour, parsley, salt and pepper; press each breast into mixture to coat all over.
In nonstick skillet, melt half of the butter over medium heat; fry chicken, in batches, using remaining butter and turning once, until golden outside and no longer pink inside, about 8 minutes for each batch. Transfer chicken to plate; keep warm.
Drain off any fat in pan. Pour in apple cider, sage and cider vinegar; bring to boil. Boil until liquid is reduced by half, about 2 minutes. Drizzle over chicken.
Additional information :
Tip: If you're in a rush, you can omit pounding the chicken breasts; just cook the chicken for about 4 minutes longer.
