Breaded Chicken Cutlets easy with #Pompeian Grapeseed Oil

Breaded Chicken Cutlets

I recently received a free sample bottle of Pompeian Grapeseed Oil to try out from Smiley360 blogger program. I never used grapeseed oil but I had heard a lot of good things about it.

Pompeian Grapeseed Oil

Here’s some facts about Pompeian Grapeseed oil taken from their website:

  • Pompeian imports 100% of its Grapeseed Oil from France. Its light flavor comes from delicate wine grapes, preserving the flavor of food. It’s perfect for stir frying, deep frying, sautéing and baking.
  • Grapeseed Oil is also a rich source of Vitamin E and antioxidants.
  • Grapeseed Oil is an all-natural cooking oil known for its high smoke point, a characteristic that makes it an ideal choice for stir-frying and deep frying. And because of its high fluidity, it reduces excess oil from absorbing into the food.
  • These properties are important when you don’t want the taste of the oil to conflict with your dish. Grapeseed oil does the trick to coat without leaving behind a dominating flavor or oily taste. One concern I had was clean up and that was no worries too.

    The versatile eco-friendly spray bottle allows you to control the flow without propellants. Here’s a short video on its qualities.

    So I thought I’d give it a try with breaded chicken. We like the taste of breaded chicken but sometimes the oil weighs it down and you get a greasy taste too. Not the case with this grapeseed oil. This is more of a method than a recipe. You can use thin veal or steak instead of chicken. I did not try it with veggies (yet) but if you do, let me know how it turns out.

    Breaded Chicken Cutlets

    Ingredients:

  • 1 pound chicken breast and boneless thighs pounded to 1/4-inch thickness.
  • 1 cup breadcrumbs pre-seasoned or add your own seasoning.
  • Pompeian Grapeseed Oil Spray
  • Breaded Chicken Cutlets with Grapeseed Oil Ingredients

    Lightly spray chicken breasts with Grapeseed Oil. Dip the cutlets in breadcrumbs and fry over medium-high heat about 4 minutes on each side until thoroughly cooked. Add a pump of grapeseed oil to the pan if needed.

    Honey Orange Turkey Breast #thankful #SundaySupper

    honey orange turkey slices
    I’m thankful for a lot of things. This year has had its ups and downs. Most of the bad was outweighed by good and I have been very fortunate. I know I sound vague and reflective but that’s what Thanksgiving means to me. Acknowledging what I’ve overcome, gratitude for those people who touched my life and happy that I was able to help those who needed me.
    Thanks to our event host, Paula from Vintage Kitchen Notes for gathering us together to post this Thanksgiving as a group. Sunday Supper Mission strives to bring families around the table to share a meal and enjoy each others company. Important stuff for Thanksgiving and everyday.

    I wanted to make an alternative to the standard roasted turkey breast. We eat a lot of turkey throughout the year and I try to switch it up often. This recipe mixes sweetness of honey and spicy brown mustard with a kick of orange.
    I apologize for the lack of pictures. My camera has a mind of its own.

    Honey Orange Turkey Breast


    Ingredients

    • 2 lbs Turkey tenderloins
    • 2 Tablespoons spicy brown mustard
    • 1 teaspoon granulated garlic
    • 1/2 teaspoon red pepper flakes
    • 1/2 cup orange juice concentrate
    • 2 tablespoons honey
    • 2 Tablespoons brown sugar
    • 1/2 teaspoon soy sauce

    Rub turkey with mustard, sprinkle with garlic and red pepper flakes. Roast covered at 325 degrees until meat thermometer registers 160 degrees. Remove and let rest for 20 minutes.
    While turkey rests, combine concentrate, honey, brown sugar and soy sauce in a small sauce pan. Bring to a boil whisking constantly continue to cook until sauce thickens. Pour over sliced turkey.
