Ingredients
- 2 heaping tablespoons all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon poultry seasoning
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 2 large egg whites
- 1 cup chopped hazelnuts, available on baking aisle
- 4 (6-ounce) pieces boneless, skinless chicken breasts
- Salt and pepper
- 2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
- 1 cup whole milk
- 1/2 cup Gorgonzola
- 2 tablespoons chopped fresh sage leaves, plus extra for garnish – substitute 1 teaspoon dried sage and stir into sauce, if fresh is not available
Directions
Preheat oven to 325 degrees F.
Mix flour, poultry seasoning and garlic powder in a dish. Beat egg whites in a shallow plate or bowl. Place hazelnuts on a piece of waxed paper or plastic wrap on a cutting board or work surface.
Preheat a nonstick skillet with oven safe handle over medium high heat. Season the chicken with salt and pepper. Turn in flour to dust the breasts, then turn in egg whites, then press breasts into nuts on both sides. Wash hands. Add extra-virgin olive oil to the pan and add chicken. Brown the nuts and chicken 2 minutes on each side then transfer to the oven and finish cooking the chicken through, about 8 minutes.
In a small pot, warm milk over medium heat. Add cheese and melt it into the milk. Stir in 2 tablespoons of chopped sage and simmer 5 minutes.
To serve, place chicken on plates and pour a couple of spoons of the Gorgonzola sauce over the center of each piece. Garnish with chopped sage.

Good Recipe. Good taste with a kick with the Gorgonzola cheese sauce. I cut back on the cheese by a touch the second time I made this and it was even better than the first time.

The chicken was pretty good but I agree with the last review - somehow it didn't mesh with the gorgonzola sauce. I love Rachael Ray, but I'm thinking I'll just keep the plain chicken recipe or do a variant on it with some other nut. It wasn't a bad meal - but I don't think it was worth the expense!

In theory, this dish should be amazing. I absolutely love all the elements that go into it. However, in practice, chicken just does not stand up to the bold flavor of gorgonzola. All in all, it was a so-so dinner made with super expensive ingredients. I love Rachael Ray, but this recipe is NOT a keeper for me.
