Chicken Paillards with Wilted Greens & White Beans & Gremolata Bread Crumbs

  1. Cut into and across the chicken breast pieces and open them up like a book.
  2. Pound between 2 sheets of wax paper to 1/4-inch thickness, then season with salt and pepper and reserve.
  3. Heat 4 tablespoons of the EVOO in a large skillet over medium-low heat with the anchovies, if using.
  4. Melt the anchovies into the oil until they dissolve, then add half of the garlic and stir for 2 minutes.
  5. Add the bread crumbs and stir and cook until deeply golden in color.
  6. Stir in the lemon zest, parsley, and red pepper flakes.
  7. Transfer the bread crumbs to a bowl.
  8. Wipe out the pan and return it to the stove.
  9. Heat 1/2 tablespoon of the EVOO.
  10. Cook 2 pieces of chicken for 5 to 6 minutes, turning once, then transfer to a plate and cover with foil to keep warm.
  11. Repeat the process.
  12. Once cooked, remove the remaining chicken to the plate and add the remaining tablespoon of EVOO to the pan.
  13. Add the remaining garlic to the pan and saute for a minute or two, then wilt in the escarole.
  14. Season the greens with salt, pepper, and the nutmeg.
  15. Once the escarole is wilted, stir in the stock and add the beans to heat through, about 2 minutes.
  16. Serve each paillard on a dinner plate topped with a generous mound of greens and beans and a healthy sprinkle of flavored bread crumbs.
