Method

Cooking Directions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Chicken

    Pound the chicken breasts to an even thickness. Season with salt and black pepper.

  2. 2

    Set up Breading Station

    Set up three bowls: one with flour, one with beaten eggs, and one with breadcrumbs.

  3. 3

    Bread the Chicken

    Dredge each chicken breast in flour, dip in eggs, then coat with breadcrumbs.

  4. 4

    Cook the Chicken

    In a large skillet, heat olive oil over medium-high heat. Add the breaded chicken and cook for about 4-5 minutes on each side, or until golden brown and cooked through. Remove and let drain on paper towels.

  5. 5

    In a large bowl, combine arugula, frisee, and kale. In a small bowl, whisk together champagne vinegar, Dijon mustard, honey, salt, and black pepper. Drizzle over the greens and toss gently.

  6. 6

    Form goat cheese into small balls. Roll in breadcrumbs and fry in olive oil until golden brown.

  7. 7

    Serve

    Plate the chicken Milanese and top with the mixed greens. Add goat cheese croquettes on the side.
