This tasty Chicken Francesca Recipe is made with lemon juice, bread crumbs, and other ingredients, and the dish is highly recommended by Karen. Karen's Note: This is a recipe that I got from Good Morning LA when Regis Philbin was the host. He had a guest comedian named Pat Corley who made his Chicken Francesca. It's the BEST chicken dish I have EVER eaten. Ingredients: | |
4 lg. | boneless chicken breasts, halved |
1 c. | milk, (to soak chicken) |
1 c. | plain bread crumbs |
1 c. | grated Parmesan cheese |
2 tbsp. | chopped fresh parsley |
1 c. | olive oil |
butter for baking dish | |
salt and pepper | |
1 small | orange, sliced (or small lemon) |
1 c. | white wine |
1/2 c. | orange juice, (or lemon if a sliced lemon is used) |
1 10 1/2 oz. can of chicken broth (not buillon)
Grand Marnier liqueur
Instructions:
Remove tenderloin from each breast half and save for another use. Fillet each half into two slices to yield 12 pieces. Use flat side of a meat tenderizer mallet to gently pound each piece of chicken to a uniform thickness. Soak all pieces in milk for 10 minutes.
Mix bread crumbs, Parmesan cheese and parsley. Dredge each piece of chicken and lightly brown on both sides in olive oil.
Place chicken in lightly buttered oblong baking dish. Salt and pepper to taste and place orange slices on chicken.
Remove all but 1/4 c. oil and residue from skillet; add wine and reduce by 1/2. Add broth and orange juice and reduce by 1/2 again. Pour sauce over chicken then drizzle with Grand Marnier (approx. 1/4 c.). The sauce thickens a little when reduced.
Bake at 350 degrees for 20-25 minutes (till bubbly). Serves 4. I make buttered, twisted egg noodles and mixed vegetables with this dish. Mmmm, you'll wish you doubled the recipe!
