Time 20m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 5

1 large egg
2 to 4 cups cereal, crackers, pretzels or chips, crushed
4 chicken cutlets (about 4 ounces each)
Kosher salt and freshly ground pepper
1/3 cup vegetable oil

Steps:

  • Beat the egg in a shallow dish. Put your desired coating in a separate shallow dish. Season the chicken all over with salt and pepper. Dip in the egg, letting the excess drip off, then firmly press in the coating, making sure to coat both sides.
  • Heat the vegetable oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Working in two batches, add the chicken and cook until crisp and cooked through, 4 to 5 minutes per side, adjusting the heat as needed if the coating is browning too quickly. Drain on a paper towel-lined plate; season with salt.

This chicken is nice and crunchy with just a tiny little bite from the cayenne. Enjoy it alone, topped with honey-mustard dressing or atop a salad (See Recipe #145067). Cooking time includes the 20-30 minutes chicken dries between breading and cooking. This recipe is from Cuisine at Home magazine.

Categories     Chicken Breast

Time 55m

Yield 4-6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 15

2 -3 boneless skinless chicken breast halves (6-8 ounce)
2 egg whites
2 teaspoons cornstarch
1/2 lemon, juice of
1 cup coarse dry breadcrumbs
1 tablespoon fresh parsley
1 teaspoon kosher salt
1/4 teaspoon ground black pepper
1 lemon, zest of, minced
3/4 cup finely chopped pecans
1/2 teaspoon dried oregano
1/2 teaspoon dried thyme
1/2 teaspoon paprika
1/4 teaspoon cayenne
3 -4 tablespoons olive oil

Steps:

  • Prepare chicken breasts into cutlets, cutting into thirds and gently pounding to an even thickness of 1/2 inch (easier and cleaner if done between two layers of plastic wrap).
  • Blend egg whites, cornstarch, and lemon juice with a fork in a wide, shallow dish; set aside.
  • Combine bread crumbs, parsley, salt, pepper, zest, pecans, and seasonings in another wide shallow dish.
  • Crust chicken breasts by dipping both sides of prepared chicken into egg white mixture. Then applying crumbs to both sides, patting them on as much as possible. Transfer to a cookie rack to air-dry on both sides for 20-30 minutes. (This will set crust so it will stay on chicken and crisp up nicely).
  • Sauté chicken in oil in a large, nonstick, ovenproof skillet over medium-high heat for about 3 minutes, or until golden brown and crisp on bottom. Turn carefully with a spatula and transfer the skillet to the oven to finish cooking. This should take about 8 more minutes. Don't overcook, you don't want it to dry out.
