One of our favorite dishes from our September Newsletter was our Chicken Paillard served with a wonderful tomato sauce and a side salad. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Paillard is a french term for a boneless piece of meat that has been pounded thin. This simple technique of pounding the meat has a dual benefit of tenderizing the meat and creating a thinner cut that cooks faster with less moisture loss. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Tip: Avocado oil is best to execute this recipe. Avocado oil has a higher smoke point than olive oil so it will prevent the chicken from burning. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Find the recipe here: https://recipes.ilfustino.com/2019/08/23/chicken-paillard/ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Clickable recipe link in our bio.
