8. Epigram of Chicken Cutlets (Epigram
de Poulet).
Why " Epigram " I know not. Take the fillets
out of a
chicken, flatten and pout them neatly, remove
small bones
of the pinions, scrape it clean and force it
into the pointed
end of the fillets ; lay them on the dresser
and shake a
little pepper and salt over both sides, brush
them over with
the yolk of egg, dip them into bread-crumbs,
and then
into clarified butter, and again lightly into
bread-crumbs ;
they are to be broiled in a double gridiron,
but not till
the last moment. Cut the inside fillets into
scollops, place
them on a sauté-pan, fry as lightly as
possible, and put
them into a Béchamel sauce, with some
mushrooms
which have been passed ; dish the cutlets, and
serve the
scollops in the centre.
