It’s satisfying, speedy, and so versatile, which is why our chefs are always brainstorming new ways to take it to the next level. This week, they went all out by coating cutlets in Italian herbs, then searing for an eye-catching crust and roasting with a blanket of mozzarella until the meat is tender and the cheese is melty. It’s all perched atop twirly garlicky spaghetti, then spooned with a warm balsamic tomato topping that’s laced with fresh parsley and chives. You’d be chicken not to try it.
