The brigade served up a slap up escalope to the F Word diners
Serves 4
1. Preheat the oven to 200°C.
2. Peel and dice the potatoes. Parboil the potatoes in salted water for 5-6 minutes until just tender. Drain well and set aside.
3. Season the chicken fillets on both side with a little salt and pepper. Lightly beat the eggs together with the milk. Dust each chicken breast in flour, then dip in the beaten eggs and finally coat in the breadcrumbs.
4. Sauté the escalopes in a little hot olive oil until golden brown - approximately 2 minutes on each side. Drain the cooked chicken on kitchen paper, then remove to a baking tray.
5. To make the tomato sauce heat some oil in a heavy based pan. Add the shallots and garlic and cook for 2-3 minutes until softened. Add the tomatoes and basil. Allow the tomatoes to soften. Season to taste with salt and pepper.
6. Spoon a little tomato sauce over each escalope. Top with a round of mozzarella, and sprinkle with the grated parmesan. Bake in the oven for approximately 8 minutes, until the chicken is cooked and the cheese is melted and golden.
7. Drizzle with diced potatoes with oil and chilli flakes and season with salt and pepper. Sauté in a hot pan until golden and cooked through.
8. Heat a little olive oil in a hot pan, lightly sauté the garlic cloves, add the chard and toss. Lightly sauté until the leaves are wilted, remove the garlic and drain on kitchen towel
9. Serve each chicken escalope with a garnish of fresh basil, sautéed potatoes and a spoonful of sautéed chard.
