Best Spicy Grilled Chicken With Crunchy Fennel Salad Recipes
CRISPY, BREADED CHICKEN WITH FENNEL SALAD
Steps:
- For the chicken: Preheat the oven to 200 degrees F. Set a wire rack in a rimmed baking sheet.
- Fill a 14-inch cast-iron skillet with enough canola oil to come halfway up the side. Heat over medium heat until the oil reaches 350 to 375 degrees F (or a few panko breadcrumbs bubble up when sprinkled into the skillet).
- Meanwhile, place 1 chicken breast in a 1-gallon resealable plastic bag. Using a rolling pin or the flat side of a meat tenderizer, evenly pound the breast until about 1/4 inch thick. Remove to a plate and repeat with the 2nd breast. Reserve the resealable plastic bag.
- Add the flour, 1/2 teaspoon of salt and 1/2 teaspoon black pepper to the same bag and shake to combine. Add 1 breast at a time and shake to coat.
- Beat the eggs in a medium shallow bowl. In another medium shallow bowl, combine the panko with both sesame seeds, 1/2 teaspoon salt, 1/2 teaspoon black pepper, the garlic powder and cayenne. Stir to combine.
- Dip each floured breast in the egg, coating both sides and then dredge in the panko, pressing to help the crumbs adhere. Return the breaded chicken to the plate.
- Carefully lower the chicken in the hot oil and cook until golden brown and crispy, 3 to 4 minutes per side. Transfer to the prepared baking sheet and keep warm in the oven while you make the salad.
- For the salad: Combine the lemon zest and juice, olive oil, vinegar, Dijon, honey and 1/4 teaspoon pepper in a medium bowl. Whisk together.
- Halve the fennel lengthwise, cut out and discard the core, then thinly slice the fennel crosswise into half-moons and tear the fronds into pieces. Add both to the bowl.
- Halve, core and thinly slice the apple. Add to the bowl along with the walnuts and parsley. Toss and taste for seasoning.
- Remove the chicken from the oven, place on a platter then mound the salad on top. Serve right away.

SPICY GRILLED CHICKEN
Meet the Cook: Very near the top of the list of foods I prepare for company is this chicken. It's easy to fix and has never flopped. It is a family favorite, too - any leftovers are great in a salad or sandwich. My husband and I are the parents of eight, who range in age from 24 to 11. We also have three grandchildren. -Edith Maki, Hancock, Michigan
