Instructions

For the chopped Israeli salad

  • Chop the first 6 ingredients into a very small fine dice. The smaller you chop the better.
  • Place in a large bowl and toss with the lemon zest, olive oil, lemon juice, salt, pepper.
  • Taste and adjust lemon and salt to your liking.

For the mashed potatoes:

  • In a large saucepan add enough water to cover the potatoes by an inch. Add some salt and bring to a boil. Cook potatoes until they slip off a knife inserted into the center, about 20 minutes. Drain.
  • Using a potato masher or ricer, mash about half the potatoes in the pot. Add the cream and butter. Continue mashing until smooth.
  • Season with Kosher salt and pepper.

For the schnitzel:

  • Meanwhile, pre-heat oven to 250 degrees if you wish to keep chicken warm.
  • Cut the chicken breasts horizontally into two pieces. Place the pieces between two sheets of plastic wrap and pound them until they are ¼ inch thick. Lightly season both sides with salt and pepper.
  • Place the flour, egg and breadcrumbs in 3 separate shallow bowls. Add garlic powder to breadcrumbs and mix to combine.
  • Heat ¼ inch oil in large skillet over medium-high heat. While skillet is heating up, dip the chicken in this order: flour, eggs, breadcrumbs. Coat both sides, gently shaking off any excess breadcrumbs.
  • Cook cutlets about 3 minutes per side. Transfer to wire rack and place in oven while cooking the remaining cutlets.
  • For serving, squeeze with fresh lemon juice and top with chopped parsley. Serve with mashed potatoes. Allow to cool completely before storing any leftovers.
