Chicken Breasts Milano
on the grill, poultry
8 Whole chicken breasts; split
1/2 cup Olive or vegetable oil
1/2 cup Dry white wine
2 Cloves garlic; crushed
1 teaspoon Fresh Italian parsley; chopped
1 teaspoon Dried leaf oregano; crumbled
Salt
Pepper
1/8 teaspoon Crushed red-pepper flakes; (or more)
1/3 cup Parmesan cheese; grated
Fresh spinach leaves; steamed
Hot cooked rice
Red bell pepper strips
Mix oil, wine, garlic, parsley, oregano, salt and pepper (to taste). Marinate chicken in a shallow pan, covered, for several hours or overnight. Remove chicken and reserve marinade. Place breasts, skin- side up in 1 or 2 roasting pans; do not crowd. Brush with part of reserved marinade. Bake in 375 F oven, basting occasionally with marinade, for 40 minutes until skin is crisp. Sprinkle part of Parmesan over the chicken and return to oven just until Parmesan begins to turn golden. Line a warm platter with steamed spinach leaves, then with rice. Arrange chicken breasts on top and sprinkle with remaining Parmesan cheese. Garnish with red pepper strips. (NOTE: Chicken breasts can be grilled about 4 inches from coals for 20 minutes, turning and basting with marinade until chicken is golden.) Makes 8 servings.
