PARMESAN CRUSTED CHICKEN
This Parmesan Crusted hen is an smooth meal idea. We use pounded thin fowl breasts, coat in a scrumptious Parmesan coating, and then fried to lead them to crispy. Upload this hen concept for your dinner this week.
I knew this hen breast recipe changed into going to be a favourite with my own family. They love crispy coated chicken. Each one in all them got here back for seconds. I am outstanding satisfied to have any other hen recipe to add into our dinner rotations.
The breasts fried so flawlessly. They all kept their coating due to the fact I used to be careful to permit them to get cooked well earlier than trying to even peek at them. In case you try and peek and turn them too soon, the coating will no longer stick with your hen. Make sure to attend until you recognize the parm has had sufficient time to cook on to your hen.
This Parmesan Crusted hen calls for only some elements. It makes for a extremely good easy weeknight meal. Make sure to use shredded Parmesan cheese. Grated Parmesan will now not paintings. I used butter to coat my pan. The butter sincerely provides a great flavor to the chicken and allows it to cook so perfectly.
