ONION-CRUSTED CHICKEN WITH CARAMEL CITRUS GLAZE

Steps:

• Make the fried onions: Heat up to 1 quart of vegetable oil (2 to 3 inches deep) in a deep saute pan or skillet until it reaches about 350 degrees F.
• Put the flour in a bowl and season with salt and pepper. Add the julienne onions and toss to coat. In batches, being careful not to crowd, add the onions to the hot oil to fry, making sure to lightly shake off excess flour prior to putting them in. When they are golden brown but not dark brown, 3 to 4 minutes per batch, use a slotted spoon to carefully remove the onions to paper towels. When the onions are done, give them a rough chop and set aside.
• Add the bacon and minced red onion to a nonstick saute pan and cook over medium heat until the onion is translucent, about 5 minutes. Add the sugar, 2 cups water and the tomato puree and reduce the mixture until it thickens, another 5 to 8 minutes. Add all the citrus juices and stir well to combine. Remove from the heat and set aside.
• Heat the remaining 1/4 cup oil in a nonstick skillet over medium heat. Season the chicken breast with salt and pepper. Fill one shallow bowl with the beaten egg and milk, and fill a second with the fried onions. Individually, dip the chicken breasts into the egg, then press into the fried onion. Place the chicken breasts in the heated skillet and cook until golden, about 10 minutes per side, carefully turning once.
• Pour the glaze over the breasts to serve. It goes great with rice or mashed potatoes.

Steps:

• Remove the tenderloin strips from each chicken breast half, and cut each breast half into three long strips. Place the chicken pieces in a large bowl, season with salt and pepper, add the buttermilk, stir, and refrigerate for an hour or two. Place the onion slices, vinegar, cucumbers, pepper flakes, and additional salt and pepper in a small bowl. Toss to combine, and set aside for the cucumbers to marinate. Place the flour, diced onion, and some salt and pepper in a large bowl, and mix with your hands just enough to coat the onion with flour, butdon’t allow the onions to stick together. Now coat the marinated chicken. Take a piece at a time with one hand, shake off excess liquid, and place it in the flour mixture. With your other hand, press the chicken with your knuckles so the onion adheres, then flatten out the chicken. Shake off excess, and repeat with remaining chicken. In a large, heavy pot, heat the shortening or oil to 350 degrees F. on a deep-fry thermometer Gently place about 8 strips of chicken in the pot, and cook for 3 to 4 minutes, or until the bottom starts to brown.

Repeat until all chicken is fried. Serve with marinated cucumber at the bottom of each plate, some lettuce in the center, and 3 pieces of chicken on each side of the lettuce. Drizzle blue cheese dressing on top of each salad, place some roasted pepper strips on top, and sprinkle with the crumbled blue cheese.

ONION CRUSTED CHICKEN

Steps:

• 1. I just love this recipe and you can use fresh chicken breast also, I just like the quick of this one. Remove as many large pieces off the chicken as you can. I removed about 6 and the last one was a lot of little pieces I combined together.
• 2. Using a spatula, and coat each side of chicken with mayonnaise. Generously. Then roll and cost in French onion soup mix (pouring the package on a paper plate) first. Place chicken lightly greased baking pan.
• 3. Bake at 350 for 20 min. TIP: you could use any French onion mix but I believe what makes this dish so good is the Knorr mix brand.
