Ingredients
- 1 pound chicken breasts boneless skinless
- 8 ounces shiitake mushrooms sliced
- 1 cup sake (Japanese rice wine)
- 1 tablespoon soy sauce
- 1 tablespoon butter
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 2 garlic cloves minced
- 1 teaspoon ginger minced
- 8 ounces udon noodles
- Salt and pepper to taste
- Green onions thinly sliced (for garnish), optional
Instructions
- Start by preparing the chicken scaloppine. Place the chicken breasts between two sheets of plastic wrap and gently pound them to an even thickness, about 1/4 inch. Season both sides with salt and pepper.
- In a large skillet, heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil over medium-high heat. Add the chicken breasts and cook for about 3-4 minutes on each side, or until golden brown and cooked through. Remove the chicken from the skillet and set aside.
- In the same skillet, melt the butter and add the shiitake mushrooms. Sauté them for about 5 minutes until they become tender and slightly browned.
- Add the minced garlic and ginger to the skillet and cook for an additional 1-2 minutes, until fragrant.
- Pour in the sake and soy sauce, stirring to combine all the ingredients. Bring the mixture to a simmer and let it cook for about 5-7 minutes until the sauce has reduced slightly.
- While the sauce is simmering, cook the udon noodles according to the package instructions. Drain and set aside.
- In a separate skillet, heat the remaining tablespoon of olive oil over medium-high heat. Add the cooked udon noodles and spread them out evenly. Let them cook undisturbed for about 3-4 minutes until they become crispy on one side. Flip the noodles to crisp the other side for an additional 3-4 minutes.
- To serve, place a chicken scaloppine on a plate and spoon the shiitake sake sauce over it. Top with a portion of crispy udon noodles and garnish with thinly sliced green onions.
