Ingredients

  • Ingredients
    1. 4 thin chicken cutlets (1 1/4 pounds)
    2. 1/2 cup fresh orange juice
    3. 3 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
    4. Salt and freshly ground pepper
    5. 8 slices cut from a round loaf of semolina bread
    6. 1/3 cup mayonnaise
    7. 1 tablespoon minced parsley
    8. 1 tablespoon finely chopped cornichons
    9. 2 teaspoons Dijon mustard
    10. 1 scallion, finely chopped
    11. 1 small garlic clove, minced
    12. 1 teaspoon capers, drained and chopped
    13. 1/2 lemon, sliced paper thin, plus 1 teaspoon lemon juice
    14. 1 bunch watercress (6 ounces), large stems discarded

Directions

  1. Light a grill or preheat the broiler. In a medium bowl, toss the chicken with the orange juice and 2 tablespoons of the olive oil and season with salt and pepper. Let stand for 10 minutes.
  2. Meanwhile, brush both sides of the bread with the remaining 1 tablespoon of olive oil and grill until toasted, turning once. In a bowl, mix the mayonnaise with the parsley, cornichons, mustard, scallion, garlic, capers and lemon juice.
  3. Grill the chicken over high heat until lightly charred and cooked through, about 6 minutes. Spread the remoulade on the toast. Top with the chicken, a few slices of lemon and the watercress. Close the sandwiches, cut in half and serve.
