Chicken Parm Sandwich | Just a “splash” of vodka

Just a splash of Vodka for this chicken parm sandwich
2 Tbsp (28g) - Unsalted Butter
1 - Small Brown (Yellow) Onion, Fine Diced
3 - Garlic Cloves, Grated
100g (3.5oz) - Tomato Paste
Pinch Chilli Flakes
2 1/2 Tbsp (50ml) - Vodka (I got a bit carried away with my free pour)
3/4 Cup (180ml) - Thickened (Heavy) Cream
Parmesan Cheese To Taste
Salt & Pepper To Taste
Chicken Cutlet -
1-2 - Chicken Breast, Butterflied & Halved
3/4 Cup - Plain (All Purpose Flour)
2 - Large Eggs, Beaten
1 1/2 Cups - Panko, Fine or Italian Breadcrumbs
2 tsp - Dried Oregano
2 tsp - Dried Thyme
Oil For Frying
Serving -
Butter to Spread
2-4 - Baguettes or Rolls Of Choice
1 - Ball Mozzarella, Sliced into Rounds
Fresh Basil Leaves
1. In a large pan over medium-high heat, add the unsalted butter and diced onion and sauté for 3 minutes. Add grated garlic and cook for 1 minute. Add tomato paste, pinch of chilli flakes, salt, and pepper. Cook for 2-3 minutes or until the tomato paste starts to brown. Deglaze the pan with vodka and remove any stuck bits from the pan. Add cream and bring to a simmer. Reduce heat to low and cook for 5-6 minutes or until reduced and thick. Add grated parmesan cheese to taste (optional).
2. Heat oil to 170.c - 375.f in a large high-rimmed pan or pot. Season the chicken with salt and pepper and dredge it in flour, then dip it in the egg and pat it well in the bread crumbs. Fry the chicken cutlets in the hot oil for 4-5 minutes or until golden and cooked through. A thermometer should read 72.c - 161.f. Do this in batches if you need to.
3. Spoon the vodka sauce onto each fried chicken cutlet. Top with sliced mozzarella rounds and place in the oven on a lined baking tray for 3-4 minutes or until melted to your liking. At the same time, spread the butter onto your baguettes or rolls of choice and toast for 3-4 minutes.
4. Spread some of the vodka sauce onto both top and bottom of the toasted buns. Add the vodka chicken Parmi, any leftover vodka sauce, grated parmesan cheese, basil leaves, and cracked black pepper. Slice and dig in.

Good name haha

How delicious it is, drink it❤

[@AurallWow]

What does the vodka actually do in the recipe? It sure doesn't taste like much, right?

[@PinHeadThePopeOfHell]

Nope, I don't like vodka sauce as much as marinara. I like the acidicy of the tomatoes and that deep tomato flavor that's why I always use tomato paste as well. The milk is just diluting that awesome tomato flavor.

[@sbaxter3252]

But what are the ingredients to the red pesto?

[@ChefJackOvens]

I have many videos on the channel for the sun dried tomato pesto. You don’t have to use it, basil pesto works amazing too or you can use mayo

[@sbaxter3252]

Come on the pesto is excessive

[@ChefJackOvens]

It’s optional

[@cassidyfox7316]

That crunch was fake 😂

[@ChefJackOvens]

How haha? That’s the bread.

[@cassidyfox7316]

@@ChefJackOvens If that was the bread, you must have literally put the microphone on the bread as you bit. No hate, but that sounded like you took a bite of some Doritos. 😂 But hey I get it, most food content creators do it too

[@ChefJackOvens]

@@cassidyfox7316 if you notice the mic is on my chest right under my chin so yes that’s correct. I don’t need to fake stuff

[@cassidyfox7316]

@@ChefJackOvens Lol, I'm sure it was edited in. That crunch was way too loud to be real

@@cassidyfox7316 that’s called sound boost mate. I got nothing to defend because I know it’s real. Believe what you want 🤙🤙 cheers for the humour this morning.

Too much work for a sandwich

It’s a treat. It’s worth it
