Ingredients
1 cup (250 mL)
white wine
1
small onion, thinly sliced
1 tsp (5 mL)
black peppercorns
1
bay leaf
6
thin sliced chicken breasts (about 1 1/4 lb/550 g)
1/3 cup (75 mL)
seasoned breadcrumbs
1/2 cup (125 mL)
butter, divided
2 tbsp (30 mL)
canola oil
1 tbsp (15 mL)
fresh sage, chopped
1
egg yolk
2 tsp (10 mL)
lemon juice
pinch each salt and fresh ground pepper
Instructions
1
In a shallow saucepan bring wine, onion, peppercorns and bay leaf to a simmer. Simmer for 3 minutes. Add chicken and poach lightly, turning once for about 5 minutes. Remove to plate and discard liquid.
2
Dredge chicken cutlets in seasoned breadcrumbs.
3
Heat 2 tbsp (30 mL) of the butter and oil in a nonstick skillet over medium heat. Brown cutlets on both sides until no longer pink inside and internal temperature reaches 165°F (74°C). Keep warm.
4
Melt remaining butter and sage in a small saucepan over medium-low heat, stirring occasionally for about 10 minutes or until light golden brown in colour. Let cool slightly.
5
In a small bowl whisk together egg yolk and lemon juice. Slowly drizzle in butter-sage mixture while whisking into egg mixture until smooth and thickened slightly. Whisk in salt and pepper and spoon over cutlets to serve.
