Chicken Cutlets Milanese

I visited Rome last year, and tried a lot of new dishes there. This particular dish, I hadn’t ever even heard about!

During my stay there, the most wonderful snack I had was the chicken Milanese cutlet. It was crispy, and had an arugula topping. So simple, yet so perfect - heavenly delicious!

I make this snack at home quite often, and top it with whatever feels right. Mostly, it’s tomatoes in summer, and peppery salad with arugula & herbs in the winter, taking me right back to that wonderful dish - and the time I spent there of course.

I add cannabis to the dressing, in this dish, as the temperature to make the cutlet crisp is too hot for the infused oil.

Cannabis-Infused Chicken Cutlets Milanese is always better with our canna-oil.

Ingredients

2 lightly beaten eggs
2 cups panko crumbs
canola oil
6 skinless and boneless thin pounded chicken breasts
salt and pepper, use as per your preference
1 bunch of rinsed, dried, and trimmed arugula
1 bunch of fresh mixed herbs, cleaned and dried
2-3 tbsp lime juice
4 tbsp olive oil
1 peeled and thinly sliced red onion
1 cup of grape tomatoes
2 tbsp cannaoil
6 tbsp crumbled goat cheese
1 lime cut in slices

Instructions

1. Place Pounded Chicken Breasts on Work Surface
Place thinly pounded chicken breasts on a work surface, and sprinkle with salt & pepper.
2. Coat Check Breasts with Bread Crumbs
Place breadcrumbs & whisked eggs, into two separate bowls. First, dip the chicken breasts in egg, and then in the crumbs. Make sure they are well coated. Gently shake off excess bread crumbs.
3. Preheat Skillet with Oil
Pour oil into a skillet & preheat - it should be at least ¼ inch above the bottom of the pan. When oil is warm/hot, add 1 or 2 cutlets.
Note: Do not overcrowd the pan.
4. Pan Fry Cutlets Until Golden Brown
Pan fry for 4 - 6 min, or until golden brown, and then turn cutlets to cook the other side. Repeat with remaining chicken breasts.
5. Place Cutlets on Cooling Racks Over Baking Sheets
Place on cooling racks over baking sheets covered with a clean, dry dish towel, or paper towels, to absorb excess oil.
Tip: The racks help keep the cutlets crispy.
6. Combine with Other Ingredients
Combine herbs, arugula, tomatoes & onions, in a medium-sized mixing bowl & toss to evenly distribute ingredients.
7. Whisk Canna-oil with Ingredients
Whisk infused cannabis-oil with olive oil, salt, pepper & lime juice.
8. Divide Salad Into Bowl and Place Cutlet
Divide salad into serving bowls, and place one cutlet on top. Drizzle with dressing, add chunks of goat cheese & serve with a slice of lime.
