Chef Prudhomme’s Pan Fried Chicken and fettucine

out of control yumminess

Makes 6 servings
   
4 quarts hot water
2 tablespoons vegetable oil
1 tablespoon salt
1 pound dry fettuccine
1/2 pound (2 sticks) unsalted butter
2 1/2 cups heavy cream
Chef Paul Prudhomme’s Vegetable Magic� (I used Poultry magic since I made this with chicken)
1 cup, plus 4 teaspoons finely grated Parmesan cheese
1 3/4 cups very fine dry bread crumbs
1 1/2 tablespoons minced fresh parsley
1 1/2 tablespoons olive oil
3 eggs
6 (3 1/2 – 4 ounce) slices of baby white veal or chicken, pounded thin
Vegetable oil, for pan frying
    
Place the water, oil and salt in a large pot over high heat, cover and bring to a rolling boil.  Add fettuccine and cook to al dente or however you like it. Drain in colander and rinse with hot water to get excess starch off.  After the pasta has cooled thoroughly, about 2 to 3 minutes, pour about 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil in your hands and gently rub the fettuccine until it’s well coated with oil.  Set aside still in the colander. 

Melt the butter in a large skillet over medium-low heat.  Add the cream and 1 teaspoon of the Pork and Veal Magic (or other Magic Seasoning Blend), and turn the heat to medium-high.  Whisk the mixture constantly as it comes to a boil, then reduce the heat and simmer, still whisking constantly, until the sauce has reduced some and thickened enough to coat a spoon well, about 7 to 8 minutes.  Remove from the heat, gradually add ¾ cup of the Parmesan, whisking until the cheese melts, and set aside. 

Combine the bread crumbs, parsley, olive oil and remaining Pork and Veal Magic (or other Magic Seasoning Blend) in a shallow baking pan.  Beat the eggs in a separate shallow pan, then beat in the remaining 4 teaspoons Parmesan.  Soak the veal in the egg mixture for at least 5 minutes, being sure to coat it thoroughly.  Meanwhile, heat ¼ inch oil to about 400º in a large skillet.  Then, just before frying, dredge the veal in the seasoned bread crumbs, coating well and pressing the crumbs in with your hands.  Shake off any excess.  Fry the veal in the hot oil until golden brown, about 1 minute per side.  Do not crowd.  If any of the crumbs in the bottom start to burn, change the oil immediately.  Remove the veal to a large platter and set aside. 

Reheat the cheese sauce over medium-high heat, whisking frequently.  If the butter starts to separate, whisk in 1 tablespoon of cream or water.  Add the fettucini and toss until thoroughly coated and heated through, about 1 minute.  Remove from the heat and serve immediately.  To serve, place a piece of veal on each heated serving plate.  Roll each portion of fettuccine onto a large fork and slide onto the plate.  Top with additional sauce from the skillet.
