Olive Garden Chicken Lombardy Recipe

chicken breasts

eggs (lightly beaten)

all-purpose flour

salt

black pepper

breadcrumbs

mozzarella cheese

provolone cheese

bacon, cooking until crispy and crumbled

alfredo sauce

parsley

Place the flour, salt and a pinch of black pepper into a shallow dish. In another shallow dish add the beaten egg. In yet another shallow dish add the breadcrumbs. Dip each chicken breast in the flour until evenly coated, then dip in the egg and then roll in breadcrumbs. Repeat until all of the chicken breasts are coated.

In a small saucepan heat the alfredo sauce until heated through.

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Heat oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the chicken breasts and fry until golden on both sides. Remove from the pan and place on a baking sheet.

Place into the oven and bake for 25-30 minutes or until the chicken is fully cooked, the internal temperature has reached 165 degrees F.

During the last few minutes of cooking top each chicken breasts with some of the mozzarella and provolone cheeses. Bake until the cheese has melted. Remove from the oven and place the chicken onto individual plates. Spoon about 1/4 cup of the heated Alfredo sauce over each chicken breast, top with some crumbled bacon and minced parsley.

Black pepper and sumac strawberries with honey creme fraiche

caster sugar

water

Tbsp sumac

black pepper (about 1 tsp)

creme fraiche

Tbsp honey

Put the sugar and water in a small pot set over a medium heat. Stir until the sugar has dissolved, then add the sumac and black pepper. Simmer gently for 5 minutes, then remove from the heat. Cool, then strain through a fine sieve.

If the strawberries are large, halve or quarter them and add to the syrup. If you're using smaller berries, prick them with a skewer or fork before adding them to the syrup. Cover and let steep for at least 2 hours at room temperature, or in the fridge overnight.

Just before serving, stir the crème fraîche and honey together. Divide the berries between four plates or bowls. Dollop on some crème fraîche and pour over a generous slosh of the syrup.

Early spring garden salad

Parsley, small leaves

Chervil, sprigs

Baby carrots, scrubbed (Main)

Baby

Beetroot, beets scrubbed

Sea salt

Garlic, small, peeled

Tbsp Olive oil

Tbsp Walnut oil

tsp Cider vinegar

Salt

Place chilled leaves in a wide mixing bowl. Scatter herbs on top. Add any baby beetroot leaves too.

Use a mandolin or very sharp knife to thinly slice the carrots lengthwise. Place slices into iced water immediately. Do the same to the baby fennel, then finally slice the beetroot into thin rings, placing them in a separate bowl of iced water.

Make dressing by gently heating garlic cloves in olive oil in a very small pan on medium heat, just until garlic sizzles gently and begins to turn golden. Pour oil and garlic into a small bowl, and use a fork to whisk in the walnut oil, cider vinegar and salt. Set aside for 5 minutes.

After 5 minutes, drain all sliced vegetables and dry well on kitchen paper. Add the vegetables to the salad bowl. Break sourdough croutons into two or three pieces and add to bowl. Sprinkle sea salt on top. Rewhisk dressing and pour all over salad. Toss gently and serve immediately in shallow bowls.

Spread the onion mixture into an ovenproof baking dish. Place the chicken thighs on top, snuggling them among the onions. Place a spoonful of the oregano mixture on to each thigh.

Drizzle over a little extra olive oil, cover and place into the oven for 40 minutes, removing the cover after 20 minutes. Serve hot with rice or mashed potatoes.

This is the perfect cake that’s wonderful to eat with a cup of loose-leaf green tea. I love that it’s not too sweet and scented with only a hint of raw organic honey. Add apple puree in place of yoghurt to make these cakes dairy free.
