Chicken scallops with chiles and parsley
How to make Chicken scallops with chiles and parsley recipe - PĂ©toncles de poulet aux piments et au persil recette
SERVES 4
Ingredients:
4 skinless boneless chicken breast halves (preferably free-range), about 7oz (200g) each
1 tbsp all-purpose flour
1 cup toasted bread crumbs
handful of flat-leaf parsley, finely chopped
2 fresh red jalapeño chile peppers, seeded and finely chopped
1 egg, lightly beaten
1–2 tbsp olive oil
10oz (300g) fresh spinach leaves
juice of 1 lemon
a few drops of Asian hot chili oil
sea salt and freshly ground black pepper
Method:
1 Sandwich the chicken breasts between 2 large sheets of plastic wrap. Pound with a meat mallet or the side of rolling pin until thin and evenly flattened. Season well with salt and pepper, and dust with flour.
2 In a bowl, mix together the bread crumbs, parsley, and chiles. Dip the chicken in the beaten egg, then coat with the bread crumb mixture.
3 In a large frying pan, heat the oil over high heat. Add the chicken pieces, two at a time, and cook for 6–8 minutes, turning once, until golden and cooked through. Remove from the pan, and set aside to keep warm.
4 Now reduce the heat slightly and add the spinach to the same pan with a sprinkling of water. Cook, stirring, for a few minutes until just wilted. Sprinkle with some of the lemon juice, and serve on warm plates, along with the chicken. Squeeze the remaining lemon juice and a few drops of chili oil over the top, and serve immediately.
