Do you have a recipe for any of these great sounding dishes? I am sure hungry now. Mike

Hi Jerri, what you are describing with pounding out, then breading and frying the chicken breasts sounds like chicken Milanese. Ironically, chiccle, spelled c h i c l e, is Spanish for chewing gum. :-) I don't know what chicken Tikka is exactly, but it sort of sounds the same... Chicken Milanese is easy to make, and either chicken or steak Milanese is often served at Mexican restaurants on a sandwich, or as a platter. At Italian restaurants, it becomes a dish like the chicken Parmesan, and that sort of thing, where they pile sauce, cheese, and maybe some cooked veggies on top. In the Mexican variety, it can be slightly messy to eat, because with the steak at least, they tend to use cheaper cuts of meat and maybe not to cut it up into bite-sized pieces. At my local taqueria, they pile on beans, lettuce, tomato, avocado, jalapenos, and queso fresco, this incredible soft farm cheese--either served on a hoagie bun or accompanied by tortillas. I rarely eat beef, but this is so delicious, I allow myself steak Milanese every once in a while as a treat. Oops, I went rambling down memory lane again! :-) Hope this helps, Jamey _______________________________________________ Cookinginthedark mailing list [email protected] http://acbradio.org/mailman/listinfo/cookinginthedark _______________________________________________ Cookinginthedark mailing list [email protected] http://acbradio.org/mailman/listinfo/cookinginthedark
