Ingredients
14
ounces
(400 grams) boneless skinless chicken breast
Vegetable oil for deep-frying
2
large eggs,
lightly beaten
1
cup
(100 grams) breadcrumbs
Salt to taste
Extra-virgin olive oil for sautéing
10
ounces
(300 grams) red onions,
thinly sliced
Bay leaves to taste
1
1/2 cups 2 tablespoons (400 milliliters) white wine
1
1/4 cups (300 milliliters) apple cider vinegar
Fresh sage leaves to taste
Whole black peppercorns to taste
Instructions
Slice the chicken into smaller pieces.
Heat a generous amount of vegetable oil in a pan.
Dredge the chicken slices first in the eggs and then in the breadcrumbs and fry until golden brown and crisp.
Cook in batches if necessary to keep from crowding the pan
Transfer the fried chicken to paper towels to drain and salt lightly.
When the chicken has all been cooked, in another pan heat a small amount of olive oil over low heat and sauté the onions with bay leave until transparent. Do not let them brown.
Add the wine and vinegar, a generous amount of sage, a little salt, and a few peppercorns.
Simmer for 1 minute, then remove from the heat
Remove the onion and herb mixture from the marinade with a slotted spoon, reserving the cooking liquid.
In a glass storage container, alternate layers of the onion mixture with layers of the fried chicken until you have used up both.
Pour the reserved cooking liquid over the top.
Allow the chicken to cool completely, then seal tightly with a lid or cover securely with plastic wrap and refrigerate.
Serve Cold.
