Number Of Ingredients 9

4 boneless skinless chicken breasts
1 egg, beaten
3/4 cup yellow cornmeal
1/2 teaspoon dried basil leaves
1/4 teaspoon dried oregano leaves
1/4 teaspoon paprika
salt and pepper
1/4 cup grated parmesan cheese or 1/4 cup romano cheese
2 tablespoons lemon juice

Steps:

  • Rinse chicken and pat it dry.
  • It works best thin, so put the chicken breasts between two sheets of waxed paper and pound them to about 1/3" thick.
  • Pour beaten egg in shallow bowl.
  • In a shallow dish or pan, combine basil, oregano, pepper, salt, and grated cheese.
  • Brush chicken with the lemon juice, then dip both sides in the beaten egg.
  • Next, coat chicken with the cornmeal mixture.
  • Let chicken sit on a wire rack for 20-30 minutes.
  • Spray George Foreman two sided grill with nonstick cooking spray.
  • Cook chicken for 4-7 minutes until thoroughly cooked, brown and crisp.
