Todd was on his knees he liked the tortilla chips so much! I had some corn tortillas left from a failed attempt at enchiladas and decided to fry them up and season them for dipping in the guac. I definitely made up for the too-lemony hollandaise sauce this morning! Yum............and Old Bay Seasoning was a perfect choice.
Amelia dubbed this dish "Amazing Chicken." We saw Rachael Ray do a version of this on T.V. recently and this is what we came up with today:
Chicken
pound chicken breasts out thin and bread with a crumb mixture of plain breadcrumbs, zest of one lemon, a bunch of parmesan cheese, black pepper (we did the classic flour, eggs, breadcrumb process) shallow fry the chicken and keep warm in the oven if you have to do it in batches. fry the remaining breadcrumbs in the hot oil and set aside.
Salad Component-serve piled up on top of the hot fried chicken
toss arugula, red cabbage, sliced scallions with the following lemon viniagrette: zest of one lemon, juice of two lemons (use the zest from the second lemon in the breadcrumbs for the chicken), a tablespoon or two honey, large squirt spicy brown mustard, 2-3 cloves garlic smashed up with salt, black pepper-whisk it all together with olive oil. I like to toss these types of greens an hour or so in advance to give the dressing a chance to penetrate the lettuces.
