Method
-
Slice the peppers and 15 g garlic. Soften with 30 ml oil for 20 minutes. Add the olives and cook for 3 minutes.
-
Top eight chicken fillets with one ham slice and half a cheese slice each. Cover with the other eight fillets, press the edges and season.
-
Coat each piece with flour, beaten egg and breadcrumbs mixed with sesame. Shake off excess and discard any leftover coating that has touched raw chicken.
-
Heat oil with the remaining garlic and remove the garlic before frying. Fry the schnitzels in batches for 3–4 minutes per side. If browned before cooked through, finish in a 180 °C oven until the centre reaches 74 °C.
-
Toast the pine nuts in a dry pan, stirring for 1–2 minutes. Add to the peppers.
-
Drain the schnitzels on kitchen paper and serve with the peppers and parsley.
