Gillie Houston’s Walnut Crusted Chicken Cutlets

In a food processor, blend California walnuts, until they are broken into small pieces. Make sure not to over blend.

Mix the chopped California walnuts with the flour, salt, pepper, parmesan, grated garlic cloves, dijon mustard on a plate.

Set walnut mixture aside and beat eggs in a separate bowl.

Take your chicken cutlets and dip them into the egg mixture. Once covered in egg, dip them into the walnut mixture and allow the crumbs to coat the chicken. Repeat until all chicken is coated.

On medium heat, allow neutral oil to get hot in a pan. Once hot, drop chicken cutlets in. Cook until the cutlets have a golden crust.

To plate, start with a layer of labneh on a plate. Add lemon zest, chopped parsley, salt and pepper to top of labneh. Mix until fully combined.

In a separate bowl, add lemon juice, olive oil, salt, pepper, dijon mustard, and arugula. Mix until fully combined.

Add arugula salad mixture on top of labneh and finish off with the star of the show: Walnut Crusted Chicken Cutlets.
