    Good recipe. Very tasty and easy. I recommend seasoning the chicken before flouring. I also added parmesan to the bread crumbs.

        That looks divine. I do a similar 'huli-huli' chicken on the grill, but this looks convenient for off season.

          It’s not. Do not recommend. I had to add bbq sauce and a little more sesame oil.

            Well, I'm grilling burgers on the stove, if you want something even less inspiring.

            Serving with a caprese salad though.

              That’s what I did last night. We are descending into culinary hell.

                    Nice. Burger was meh, caprese salad very good. Got lucky with just the right amount of olive oil and balsamic.

                      That proportion can be tricky. I'll have one this weekend. Just got some buffala mozz yesterday. Makes all the difference. I don't love balsamic on mine. Usually salt, olive oil and plenty of basil.

                        I have a balsamic vinegar bottle with a little spray top. I can just get little droplets on it like it was pepper.

                          That's a great idea. Speaking of simple salads, one of my favorites is fresh arugula with a spritz of great olive oil, a little lemon juice and a sprinkle of parmesan. Might throw in a few pine nuts if you have them. Simple, healthy, delicious, too easy.

                            Found morels today, so chicken with morel sauce tonight. I leave out the cream as it’s better that way.

                                A fussy but yummy beef and broccoli recipe from cooks illustrated.

                                Mayla doesn’t love it and she’s in DC so I made it for me and the boy.

                                    Made this last night. Fantastic, but double the garlic and marinate the chicken for all day or overnight. I I doubt 30 minutes would do anything. I skipped the cayenne for espelette pepper, which was plenty of heat with more flavor. Half a teaspoon of cayenne is a LOT. The salad was a surprising delight. Very light meal but satisfying.

                                    Total Time 30 minutes

                                    INGREDIENTS
                                    Yield: 4 servings
                                    4 boneless, skinless chicken
                                    breasts (about 6 ounces each),
                                    patted dry
                                    Kosher salt
                                    2 tablespoons finely grated ginger
                                    (from a 2-inch piece)
                                    1 garlic clove, finely grated
                                    ¼ cup chopped fresh cilantro
                                    ½ teaspoon ground cayenne
                                    6 tablespoons neutral oil, such as
                                    grape seed or canola
                                    1 lime
                                    ½ small head napa cabbage, cut
                                    lengthwise (about 1 pound)
                                    1 seedless cucumber (Persian or
                                    English), thinly sliced
                                    ½ cup sliced chives (½-inch
                                    lengths)
                                    ½ cup mint leaves

                                    PREPARATION

                                    Step 1
                                    Place chicken breasts between two sheets of parchment paper or
                                    plastic wrap. Using a rolling pin or a bottle, pound each to an even
                                    ½-inch thickness. Season both sides with salt.

                                    Step 2
                                    In a small bowl, combine the ginger, garlic, cilantro, cayenne and
                                    4 tablespoons oil. Finely grate the lime zest directly into the bowl;
                                    reserve the lime. Rub both sides of the chicken breasts with the
                                    marinade. Let sit at room temperature for at least 10 minutes.

                                    Step 3
                                    Meanwhile, cut the cabbage lengthwise, core it, then slice
                                    crosswise into ½-inch-thick strips. Transfer to a large bowl and
                                    toss in the cucumber slices, chives and mint leaves.

                                    Step 4
                                    Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Pour in 1 tablespoon
                                    oil and heat until shimmering, about 1 minute. Place the chicken
                                    breasts in the skillet and cook, turning once, until golden brown
                                    and cooked through, about 4 minutes per side. Cut the reserved
                                    Ginger, garlic and cilantro form the base of an aromatic marinade for this easy stovetop chicken dish.
                                    Lightly pounding the chicken breasts increases their surface area, which helps them soak up the
                                    marinade and cook evenly. A refreshing and crunchy salad of napa cabbage, cucumbers and fresh
                                    mint rounds out the dish into the perfect light lunch or dinner. To make this for a larger group, simply
                                    double the recipe.
                                    2 tablespoons rice vinegar, distilled
                                    white vinegar or apple cider vinegar
                                    lime in half and squeeze the juice over the chicken; slice the
                                    chicken. Transfer the chicken to serving plates and slice.

                                    Step 5
                                    Toss the cabbage mixture with the vinegar and remaining 1
                                    tablespoon oil. Season to taste with salt and serve alongside the
                                    chicken

                                        Thanks! I enjoy cooking, and finding healthy, delicious recipes is great. I'd put a link in but it's NYT so if you aren't subscribed you won't be able to see it. Let me know how you like it. It's going in rotation here.

                                          Just made the marinade for Peruvian Chicken. Added a little grapefruit juice as well as lime juice as I had a little left over. The recipe is above in this thread, but if I make the green sauce I leave out the feta cheese. It just muddles the flavor.
