  • 2

Ingredients

  • 2 Chicken Cutlets (pounded thin) about 6 ounces
  • 2 tablespoons Flour
  • Salt
  • Pepper
  • 1 tablespoon egg equivalent
  • 1/4 cup Panko
  • 1 tablespoon Olive Oil
  • 1 tablespoon Butter
  • 1 tablespoon Capers (drained)
  • 2 tablespoons Parsley (coarsely chopped)
  • 1 Blood Orange (peeled)
  • 1 tablespoon Shallot (minced)

Preparation

Step 1

* Pound the chicken cutlets to a 1/2-inch thick.
* Zest and juice half of the blood orange and set juice aside. Peel the white pith off the other half, then cut into supremes, and set aside.

* Arrange three shallow dishes: in one - flour, seasoned with salt and pepper. In the second dish, lightly beat the eggs. In the third, add the breadcrumbs.

* Dredge the chicken cutlets lightly on each side in the flour, then eggs, then the breadcrumbs.

* Heat the olive oil over medium-high heat. Add each of the chicken cutlets, cooking for 4 minutes per side, until golden brown and juices run clear. Remove to paper towel lined plate. Drain the pan and wipe clean.

* Add the butter to the pan, and once it has foamed and subsided, add the capers, shallot and blood orange zest and juice, stir and remove from heat.
* In a bowl, combine the parsley, a drizzle of olive oil and blood orange segments. Toss and season.

* Spoon the sauce over the chicken cutlets, and top with the orange-parsley salad to serve.
