Adventures in Cutting Up a Whole Chicken
On The Menu Tonight: Smoky Paprika and Almond Crusted Chicken
Ingredients:
Chicken
Bread Crumbs
Flat Leaf Parsley
Season Flour with Paprika, Salt, and Pepper in one pan, plate, whatever. Beat eggs with a little milk in a separate pan, plate, whatever. Take two hand fulls of almonds, one handful of breadcrubs, and one handful of parsley and puree in a food processor until mixture is fine. Tranfer to a third a final pan, plate, whatever.
Set up an assembly line in this order: Dredge chicken in flour, shake off excess. Lightly dip in egg mixture and coat with almond crust. Lightly coat the bottom of your biggest frying pan with olive oil. Pan fry 5 minutes on each side or until cooked all the way through.
For this recipe I had a whole chicken in my fridge. It is easier to use chicken breast. I thought I would try something new and attempt to cut up the entire chicken. I would give myself a 7; it wasn't exactly pretty but at least I made it out without losing a finger. I finished this dish off in the oven becuase of the large, slightly uneven cuts of chicken.
