Chile Lemon Garlic Broccolini:
- 4 bundles broccolini
- 6 garlic cloves, minced
- 1 tsp chili flakes
- 1 tsp salt
- 1 Tbsp olive oil
- ½ lemon, juiced
Equipment:
- Mallet
- Plastic wrap
- 10” sauté pan
- Tongs
- Knife
- Cutting board(s)
- Measuring cups
- Measuring spoons
Directions:
Main Dish:
- Cover the chicken breast with plastic wrap and evenly pound the chicken to about ¼ inch. Lightly season the chicken with salt and pepper on both sides.
- Heat up a wide sauté pan with the oil and half the butter. While the pan is heating up, unwrap and coat your chicken breast with flour.
- Once the pan is hot, gently place the chicken in the pan. Lay it down away from you to prevent splashing yourself with oil. Shake your pan just enough to make sure the chicken isn’t sticking to the pan. Cook for 2–3 minutes or until golden brown on the first side, flip away from you and cook for an additional 2–3 minutes.
- Remove the chicken from the pan and add in the butter, garlic, shallots, tomatoes, and capers. Cook for roughly 10 seconds and add in the white wine, parsley, salt, and pepper. Reduce for 2 minutes, or until your sauce has large bubbles, indicating that your sauce has thickened up, add in the juice of one lemon.
Chile Lemon Garlic Broccolini:
- Place a large pot of water on the stovetop and bring to a boil. Season the water with salt and gently lower in the broccolini.
- Cook for 1–2 minutes until tender. In the meantime, grab a large bowl of half ice, half water for an ice bath. Remove the broccolini and shock in the ice water.
- In a large sauté pan, add in the olive oil and butter. Add in the broccolini, followed by the garlic, chili flakes, and salt. Finish with a squeeze of lemon.
- Plate the chicken and broccolini followed by the sauce over the top. Garnish with a grilled lemon and chili flakes.
