Chicken Paillard w/Arugula Salad and Sweet Potato Mash

After watching the french bistro episode of Boy Meets Grill, Steven was dying for mussels and I was craving the chicken paillard. We ended up eating out Friday night at Belleville in Park Slope. Steven had his share of mussels but i was out of luck as chicken paillard was not on the menu. . .this meant we needed to make it the next evening for dinner.

Flay's recipe was simple and delicious- the chicken was tasty with a good lemon flavor and the dressing on the arugula salad was also super easy to put together and perfect on top of the chicken. Adding some sweet potato mash was a healthy way to add some starch to the meal.

Here is the recipe for the paillard that we used and definitely will make again:

And for the sweet potato mash, we used this recipe:

We are thinking that french onion soup better be next in our bistro attempts here at the house. . .
