Ingredients
for Parmesan Crusted Chicken:
- 1 Tbsp olive oil to sautee
- 1 1/2 lb chicken breast (2 large)
- 1/2 lemon sliced for garnish (optional)
- 1 Tbsp parsley to garnish (optional)
For
the Egg Mixture:
- 1 garlic clove minced

For
the Parmesan Breading Mixture:

Ingredients
for Lemon Butter Sauce:
- 2 garlic cloves minced
- 8 Tbsp butter
- 1/4 cup chicken broth
- 1/4 cup lemon juice
- 1/4 tsp ground black pepper
Instructions
- Cut the chicken breasts in half lengthwise. Lightly beat with a meat mallet until even in thickness.
- In a bowl, whisk together the ingredients for the egg mixture. In another bowl, combine the ingredients for the parmesan mixture. Dip chicken into the egg mixture, then dredge chicken in the parmesan mixture. Allow any excess ingredients to fall off from each bowl.
- In a large skillet, heat enough oil to cover the bottom of a skillet. Once hot, add the chicken and cook 4-5 minutes per side, or until crispy, golden and cooked through to 165˚F on an Instant Read Thermometer. Reduce the heat if chicken browns too quickly.
