Tuesday's Tip ~ Perfect Chicken EVERY time!

Living with a chef lets me take advantage of spontaneous  cooking classes. Here's one lesson I am glad I paid attention to!
 2- 3 lbs  whole chicken cutlets
1/4 - 1/2 cup extra virgin olive oil
kosher salt and freshly cracked pepper

Preheat oven to 350. Take grill pan and place on stove top and turn heat on high.  In the meantime using a pastry brush, brush cutlets with olive oil.  Generously salt and pepper top and bottom of each cutlet.  Once done, your pan will be very hot.  Place cutlets in the pan and leave for approx 2 minutes until it's "marked" ( you will see the marks from the grill pan) Turn over and marked the other side of each cutlet.  Note: chicken will not be fully cooked.  Place marked chicken in a large roasting pan and set in preheated over, cook until you see liquid running out of the cutlets  (do not turn). This takes approx. 30 minutes or more.
