I made this the other day and I thought it was easy and super yummy. I made some alterations though! They want you to put salad on top, but I wanted it more un-healthy and just better, so after I cooked it I put it in a pan, covered it in spaghetti sauce and sprinkled it with mozarella until it melted! Than of course put it over some pasta. I recommend it unless you want your chicken to be more crisp, the sauce will sog it up.
Ingredients
4 to 6 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
1 cup all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon kosher salt (used regular)
1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
2 extra-large eggs
1 tablespoon water
1 1/4 cups seasoned dry bread crumbs
1/2 cup freshly grated Parmesan, plus extra for serving
Unsalted butter
Good olive oil (used canola)
---- The rest is a receipe for the salad that can go on top, I did not do this but the judging from the reviews they really liked it.
1/4 cup freshly squeezed lemon juice (2 lemons)1/2 cup good olive oil 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt 1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper In a small bowl, whisk together the lemon juice, olive oil, salt, and pepper. Salad greens for 6, washed and spun dry
Directions
Pound the chicken breasts until they are 1/4-inch thick. You can use either a meat mallet or a rolling pin.
Combine the flour, salt, and pepper on a dinner plate. On a second plate, beat the eggs with 1 tablespoon of water. On a third plate, combine the bread crumbs and 1/2 cup grated Parmesan. Coat the chicken breasts on both sides with the flour mixture, then dip both sides into the egg mixture and dredge both sides in the bread-crumb mixture, pressing lightly.*
Heat 1 tablespoon of butter and 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a large saute pan and cook 2 or 3 chicken breasts on medium-low heat for 2 to 3 minutes on each side, until cooked through.** Add more butter and oil and cook the rest of the chicken breasts. Toss the salad greens with lemon vinaigrette. Place a mound of salad on each hot chicken breast. Serve with extra grated Parmesan.
* I double dipped the chicken in all of it so that the crust would be thicker and crispier
**I didn't pound my chicken thin enough, so once it was cooked to how I wanted it I put it in the oven so it wouldn't turn black

ReplyDeleteAshley - looks like it goes well with white wine - do you recommend a Chardonnay or Semillon?
