BAKED CHICKEN SCHNITZEL



Baked Chicken Schnitzel image

Growing up, chicken schnitzel was a classic. I decided to make this dish oven-friendly using less oil, and an easier cleanup. This dish tastes great with potato salad, or mashed potatoes and a nice crisp salad. Tastes great the next day cold too! It's a family-favorite! Enjoy with fresh squeezed lemon juice.

Number Of Ingredients 8

1 tablespoon olive oil, or as desired
6 chicken breasts, cut in half lengthwise (butterflied)
salt and ground black pepper to taste
¾ cup all-purpose flour
1 tablespoon paprika
2 eggs, beaten
2 cups seasoned bread crumbs
1 large lemon, zested

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 425 degrees F (220 degrees C). Line a large baking sheet with aluminum foil and drizzle olive oil over foil. Place baking sheet in preheated oven.
  • Flatten chicken breasts so they are all about 1/4-inch thick. Season chicken with salt and pepper.
  • Mix flour and paprika together on a large plate. Beat eggs with salt and pepper in a shallow bowl. Mix bread crumbs and lemon zest together on a separate large plate. Dredge each chicken piece in flour mixture, then egg, and then bread crumbs mixture and set aside in 1 layer on a clean plate. Repeat with remaining chicken.

  • Bake in the preheated oven for 5 to 6 minutes. Flip chicken and continue baking until no longer pink in the center and the breading is lightly browned, 5 to 6 minutes more. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 165 degrees F (74 degrees C).

CHICKEN PARMIGIANA



Chicken Parmigiana image

Recipe video above. Known as Chicken Parmesan in the US, the three key things that makes this the best Parmi you'll ever have in your life are: layers upon layers on seasoning, dry brining for the most juicy chicken ever, and extra crispy chicken. Because I'll never understand why you'd go to the trouble of making crispy crumbed chicken if the whole thing goes soggy when smothered in tomato sauce!Bonus baked option in Note 10. So golden and crunchy it will blow your mind!
