Tuscan Lemon Hen is a gluten-free, flippantly battered rooster topped with child greens and a brilliant lemon French dressing.
I had a model of this rooster at a Trattoria Sostanza in Florence years again and was blown away at their well-known butter rooster dish. After our meal, the chef allowed me to return into the kitchen and watch them put together this dish.
So, that is my fast, selfmade and gluten-free model of their recipe!
For the pan-fried battered rooster, you’ll want rooster breasts, finely floor almond flour, coconut flour, arrowroot flour, gelatin, eggs, salt and pepper, butter and olive oil.
This mixture of flours and seasonings is a implausible gluten-free various to white flour.
The brilliant, lemony salad goes on high and for this you’ll want lemons, dijon, salt and pepper, olive oil, child romaine, and tomatoes.
I really like that it is a one-plate meal and might be placed on the desk in underneath half-hour!
After we dredge rooster, normally we put it within the eggs first after which the flour, however for this recipe, it’s reversed. You set it within the flour first and then the eggs.
The fried rooster has a crisp exterior and tastes so great with the lemon within the viniagrette.
Listed below are some common rooster recipes on my website that you just may get pleasure from!
