Ranch Chicken Cutlets Recipes

Steps:

• Thinly slice the radishes, cucumbers and carrots lengthwise using a mandoline or a very sharp knife. Place in a large bowl, sprinkle with salt and pepper and set aside.
• Zest and juice the lemon. Combine the zest, juice and shallot in a mason jar or other jar with a tightly fitting lid and add salt and pepper to taste. Give it a good mix, then add the olive oil. Screw on the lid and shake to combine. Set aside.
• Pat the chicken breasts dry. Using a sharp knife, slice each chicken breast in two horizontally so you have a total of 4 thin cutlets.
• Now it's time to make your dredging station. Get out three pie pans, shallow bowls or plates with deep sides. Place the flour and ranch seasoning in one pie plate and whisk to combine. Crack the eggs in the second bowl, add 2 tablespoons of water and whisk to combine. Place the panko in the final pie pan.
• Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Working in an assembly line, place a chicken cutlet in the flour mixture and turn to coat both sides; tap off any excess. Place the cutlet in the egg wash and coat both sides. Finally, coat in breadcrumbs and place on the baking sheet. Repeat with the remaining cutlets.
• Heat the canola oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Once the oil is shiny, add the chicken cutlets and cook until golden and cooked through, about 3 minutes per side. Place on a cooling rack to drain off any excess oil and keep the cutlets nice and crispy.
• Drain off any excess water from the veggies and pat them dry with a paper towel. Add 1 cup
• fresh parsley leaves and 1/2 cup dill leaves. Drizzle in the lemon dressing and toss to combine.
• Congrats, it's time to plate! Place each cutlet on a plate, top with veggies and enjoy!

Steps:

• Place a wire rack inside a rimmed baking sheet. Preheat the oven to 200 degrees F.
• Cut the chicken breasts in half lengthwise making 8 roughly equal pieces. (They should look like large chicken tenders.) Place one sheet of plastic wrap on a clean cutting board. Put one chicken piece in the center of the plastic wrap and top with another sheet. Pound the chicken with the flat side of a meat mallet, starting in the center and working your way to the edges, until the chicken is 1/4 inch thick. Transfer to the prepared baking sheet. Repeat with the remaining chicken.
• Set up a standard breading station: mix the flour, 1 tablespoon kosher salt, 1 teaspoon granulated garlic, 1 teaspoon onion powder and 1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper and 1/2 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes if using, if using, in a shallow dish.
• Beat the eggs with 1 tablespoon water in a second shallow dish.
• Mix the panko, Pecorino-Romano, 1 tablespoon kosher salt, the remaining 1 teaspoon granulated garlic, the remaining 1 teaspoon onion powder, 1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper and the remaining 1/2 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes if using, in a third shallow dish.
• Dredge one piece of chicken in the flour mixture, turning to coat evenly. Shake off any excess, then dip into the egg mixture, turning to fully coat it on both sides. Let the excess egg drip off, then press the chicken firmly into the breadcrumb mixture, turning to coat on both sides and packing the crumbs into any crevices. Transfer the chicken back to the baking sheet and repeat with the remaining chicken pieces.
• Line a clean baking sheet with a clean wire rack. Heat 2 tablespoons of the unsalted butter and 2 tablespoons of the olive oil in a large skillet over medium-low heat. Add 2 pieces of chicken and cook until the breading is golden-brown and crisp and the chicken is just cooked through, 3 to 5 minutes per side. Transfer to the clean wire rack, season with salt and hold in the oven at 200 degrees F to keep warm. Wipe the skillet clean and repeat with the remaining butter, olive oil and chicken, making 4 batches in total.
• Serve with lemon wedges, if desired.

Steps:

• Whisk 2/3 cup of the buttermilk, the sour cream, dill, chives, 1/2 teaspoon of the garlic powder, 1/2 teaspoon of the onion powder, 1 teaspoon salt and a few grinds of pepper in a medium bowl until smooth. Refrigerate until ready to use.
• Cut the chicken breasts in half through the middle so that it looks like you are opening up a book, making 4 roughly equal pieces (they should look like thinner chicken breasts). Place a chicken breast between 2 pieces of plastic wrap, drizzle with some canola oil to keep the plastic wrap from sticking, and pound out to 1/4-inch thick. Repeat with the other 3 chicken breasts. Sprinkle each breast with salt and pepper.
• Set up a standard breading station: Mix the flour, 2 teaspoons salt and a few grinds of pepper in a shallow dish or pie plate. Beat the eggs with the remaining 1/3 cup buttermilk, 1/2 teaspoon salt and a couple grinds of pepper in a second shallow dish or pie plate. Mix the panko, remaining 2 teaspoons garlic powder, remaining 2 teaspoons onion powder, 2 teaspoons salt and a generous amount of pepper in a third shallow dish or pie plate.
• Dredge one piece of chicken in the flour mixture, turning to coat evenly. Shake off any excess then dip into the egg mixture, turning to fully coat both sides. Let the excess egg drip off, then press firmly into the breadcrumb mixture, turning to coat on both sides and packing the crumbs into any crevices. Transfer the chicken to a baking sheet and repeat with the remaining pieces.
• Line a clean baking sheet with paper towels or a rack. Heat the oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add 2 pieces of chicken and cook until the breading is golden brown and crisp and the chicken is just cooked through, 2 to 3 minutes per side. Transfer to the baking sheet lined with paper towels or a rack. Sprinkle with salt while the chicken is still hot. Wipe the skillet clean if necessary and repeat with more oil and chicken.
• Toss the romaine with the buttermilk ranch, Parmesan and a large pinch of salt. Serve the chicken alongside the salad, sprinkle with more Parmesan if desired.

Steps:

• Beat the eggs and 1 tablespoon water in a shallow bowl. Set aside until ready to fry.
• In a food processor, pulse the breadcrumbs with the parsley, pecorino, granulated garlic and salt until just incorporated. Transfer the breadcrumbs to a shallow dish.
• Cut the chicken breasts in half crosswise. On a sturdy cutting board, place a piece of chicken between 2 pieces of plastic wrap. Using a mallet or other blunt object, pound the chicken into a flat piece about 1/8-inch to 1/4-inch thick. Repeat with the remaining chicken.
• Heat 1 cup olive oil to 350 degrees F in a 14-inch cast-iron pan with the garlic cloves. Line a sheet tray with a wire rack.
• Working in an assembly line, dredge the cutlets in the egg and then the breading. Double-bread by going back to the egg wash and back into the breading. Add the first piece of breaded chicken to the preheated oil along with 1/2 stick butter. Once the butter is mostly melted, add another piece of chicken. Fry until an internal temperature of 160 degrees F is reached, 2 to 3 minutes on each side. Add more oil and butter to the pan as needed while you fry the rest of your batches, allowing the oil to come back to heat between batches. Rest on the wire rack.
• Meanwhile, preheat a 10-inch cast-iron pan over medium-high heat until hot, then place the lemon halves, cut-side down, directly in the pan and allow to caramelize, 1 to 2 minutes. Reserve for garnish.
• Place the chicken cutlets on a large platter and garnish with freshly grated pecorino, parsley leaves and caramelized lemon halves.

Steps:

• In a shallow dish, combine dressing mix, bread crumbs and Parmesan cheese.
• Dip chicken in butter, then roll in crumb mixture.
• Place in a greased baking dish and bake at 350 degrees for 45 minutes or til done.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease baking sheet with vegetable oil.
• Put bread crumbs and ranch dressing into separate bowls.
• Dip chicken into ranch dressing and press into bread crumbs to coat. Gently toss between your hands so any bread crumbs that haven't stuck can fall away. Arrange onto prepared baking sheet.
• Bake in preheated oven until no longer pink in the center and the juices run clear, about 30 minutes. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 165 degrees F (74 degrees C).
