Lidia's Italian Table

Frico & Chicken Under A Brick (1x6)

Air date: Aug 08, 1998

Lidia prepares Frico, a specialty of her native Friuli. Frico is a pancake made by sauteing Montasio cheese in a skillet until golden brown. Lidia shows us the basic dish, and then a creative surprise. Next, it’s Chicken under brick: a split chicken seared (under the weight of a brick, or heavy skillet) on the stove top until crisp-skinned, golden brown, and served immediately.
