Grilled Chicken Paillards with Virgin Sauce Recipe

This is a classic Mediterranean recipe. Grilled chicken with basil, tomatoes, and garlic. Extremely delicious!

Ingredients: 2 whole skinless and boneless chicken breasts, 1 clove garlic, peeled and minced, 3 fresh basil leaves, minced, plus 4 basil sprigs for garnish, kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper, 2 tablespoons (30 ml) extra-virgin olive oil, Virgin Sauce (recipe follows)

Divide whole chicken breasts in half. Trim any excess fat off the chicken and discard. Remove the tenders from the breasts and set aside. Rinse the breasts under cold running water and drain well. Place a breast half between 2 pieces of plastic wrap and pound it, using a mallet, to a thickness of between 1/4-1/8inch using. Repeat with remaining breast halves.

In a small mixing bowl, combine garlic, minced basil, 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt, and 1/2 teaspoon black pepper. Using the back of a spoon, mash to a paste. Stir in the olive oil.

Brush each chicken paillard on both sides with the paste, then season lightly with salt and black pepper.

Place the grill pan on the stove, then preheat over medium-high heat. When it hot, lightly grease with oil the ridges of the grill pan. Arrange the paillards in the hot grill pan. Cook for 1-2 a few minutes, turning once.

Transfer grilled chicken paillards to a serving platter. Spoon homemade Virgin sauce over, garnish with fresh basil sprigs. Serve hot.
