6 tablespoons cold unsalted butter, cut into tablespoons
2 medium shallots, minced
1 cup heavy cream
1 cup dry white wine
1 cup chicken stock or 1 cup low-sodium broth
2 tablespoons chopped fresh sage
2 teaspoons fresh lemon juice
1 pinch cayenne pepper
salt and fresh ground white pepper
1 cup seasoned dry bread crumb
1/2 cup panko breadcrumbs
1/4 cup freshly grated parmigiano-reggiano cheese
1 finely grated lemon, zest of
1 1/2 teaspoons dried thyme
2 large eggs
8 (6 ounce) boneless skinless chicken breasts, pounded 1/4 inch thick
salt & freshly ground black pepper
vegetable oil, for frying
1/4 cup chopped parsley

Steps:

To prepare the sauce: In a medium saucepan, melt 1 tablespoon of the butter. Add the shallots and cook over moderate heat until softened, 4 minutes. Add the cream, wine and stock and bring to a boil. Simmer over moderate heat until reduced to 1 1/2 cups, 20 minutes. Remove from the heat and whisk in the remaining 5 tablespoons of butter, 1 tablespoon at a time. Add the sage, lemon juice and cayenne. Season with salt and white pepper and cover.
Meanwhile prepare the chicken: In a shallow bowl, combine the bread crumbs, panko, cheese, lemon zest and thyme. In another shallow bowl, beat the eggs. Season the eggs and chicken cutlets with salt and black pepper. Dip each cutlet in the egg mixture and let the excess drip off, then dredge in the bread crumbs. Transfer the breaded cutlets to a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
Preheat the oven to 325°. In each of 2 large skillets, heat 1/4 inch of oil until shimmering. Working in batches, add the breaded cutlets and cook over moderately high heat for 1 minute. Lower the heat to moderate and fry, turning once, until the cutlets are browned and crisp, about 4 minutes. Transfer to paper towels to drain, then keep warm in the oven on another baking sheet while you fry the rest.
Rewarm the sauce over moderate heat, stirring constantly. Arrange the cutlets on plates, sprinkle with the parsley and serve with the sauce.

Time 30m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 11

4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts (each about 6 ounces)
1/2 cup all-purpose flour
3 large eggs whisked with a few tablespoons of water until smooth
2 cups panko breadcrumbs
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
Canola oil, for frying
2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice, plus lemon wedges for garnish
1/4 cup extra-virgin olive oil, plus more as needed
1/2 red onion, thinly sliced
2 ounces baby arugula
1/4 cup freshly grated Parmesan cheese, optional

Steps:

Place 1 chicken breast between 2 sheets of wax paper. Pound with a meat mallet, rolling pin or heavy skillet until 1/4 inch thick. The thinner and more even, the better. Repeat with the remaining chicken.
Place the flour, eggs and breadcrumbs in separate shallow baking dishes and season each with salt and pepper.
Season the chicken on both sides with salt and pepper. Dredge each breast in the flour and tap off the excess. Next, dip into the egg wash and let any excess drip off. Finally, dredge in the breadcrumbs, pressing to help the crumbs adhere evenly on both sides. Transfer the breaded chicken to a wire rack set over a rimmed baking sheet. This step can be done up to 30 minutes in advance.
Heat 2 inches of the canola oil in a large high-sided saute pan over medium heat until the oil begins to shimmer. Cook 1 or 2 cutlets at a time in a single layer until golden brown on each side, about 3 minutes per side. Transfer the cutlets to another wire rack set over a rimmed baking sheet and immediately sprinkle with salt. Let the cutlets rest a few minutes while you make the salad.
Whisk together the lemon juice with some salt and pepper in a medium bowl. Slowly whisk in the 1/4 cup olive oil until the dressing is emulsified. Stir in the onion and let sit a few seconds. Taste and add more olive oil, if needed. Add the arugula and Parmesan and toss to coat; season with salt and pepper.
Place each cutlet on a plate and top with a large amount of salad. Serve lemon wedges on the side.
