Knowing how to cook chicken a few different ways opens your recipes up to a whole bunch of possibilities. Here you can see how easy it is to make breaded chicken breasts. This week I’ll make a double portion so we can enjoy a Chicken Alfredo and Buffalo Chicken Sandwiches with Blue Cheese Aioli.
Ingredients:
6 whole chicken breasts, skinless and boneless
4 cups of season bread crumbs
3 eggs
1/4 cup of vegetable oil
Preheat oven to 350 degrees
Begin by preparing the chicken. Take each breast and slice it in half from the side lengthwise to produce 12 thin chicken breasts. Set aside.
In a shallow dish, beat eggs with 2 Tbsp of water. Let each chicken breast soak in the egg wash and then dredge in breadcrumbs. Place just a few breasts at a time in hot oil in a large skillet. Cook 3-4 minutes on each side until golden brown.
Remove from skillet and place in casserole dish. When all chicken breasts are browned and in the casserole dish, bake an additional 25 minutes in the oven. (To ensure the chicken is fully cooked and the crust is crispy.)
