Schnitzel di pollo con la salsa al pomodoro bianca(Chicken Schnitzel with white tomato sauce)

My friend asked me to make a chicken schnitzel with hairloom and tomato what ever.  Firstly, I don't know what is chicken schnitzel. So I search it by using wikipedia and it says "It is a traditional Austrian dish consisting of an escalope coated in breadcrumbs and fried." Well, it sounds simple. So I search for some chicken schnitzel's recipe in the internet for examples. Then I collect my data and analyse it. Instead of fry it, I rather bake it because bake do not use any oil, so it is more healthy. I serve my chicken schnitzel with penne since the original schnitzel do not have any carbohydrates in that dish. So the penne is the source of carbohydrate in this dish.

Ingredients: escalope(flattened boneless chicken), chicken broth, Bay leaves, black pepper, thyme, salt, sugar, tomatoes, shallots, breadcrumbs, eggs, flour.



Method: beat 2 eggs. Dip your escalope inside. Then mix your breadcrumbs with thyme. Then coat your escalope with the breadcrumbs then bakes it in an oven for 180 degree celcius for 30 minutes.While wait for your escalope to cooked, we prepare the gravy. You need to boil some chicken's bone with Bay leaves to have the broth. Then with a touch of olive oil in a pan, saute your diced shallots and diced tomatoes until it form a paste. Then add your broth into the paste. Stir it well. Add some salt and sugar. Add lot of course black pepper. Then in a small bowl, add some flour and hot water. Stir it well and pour it inside the gravy. Simmer it for a few minutes and then it is ready to serve.


You can serve it with pasta or potatoes. I prefer to serve it with mashed potatoes. :)
