1
Prepare the Chicken
Season the chicken breasts with salt and black pepper on both sides. Heat 2 tablespoons of schmaltz in a skillet over medium-high heat.
2
Cook the Chicken
Add the chicken breasts to the skillet and cook for about 6-7 minutes on each side, or until cooked through and golden brown. Remove from the skillet and let rest.
3
Sauté the Mushrooms
In the same skillet, add the remaining 2 tablespoons of schmaltz. Add sliced maitake mushrooms and cook for about 5-6 minutes until tender and slightly crispy. Add minced garlic and sauté for an additional 1-2 minutes.
4
Make the Gremolata
In a bowl, combine chopped parsley, lemon zest, and lemon juice. Mix well to create the gremolata.
5
Combine and Serve
Slice the rested chicken breasts, top with sautéed maitake mushrooms, sprinkle with grated manchego cheese, and finish with a generous spoon of gremolata.
