Parmesan and Herb Crusted Chicken

By: Dominick Romano • In: Entrees • Cuisine: Italian

This was one of the recipes given to us by our family in Australia when they were visiting us in the United States.

Ingredients

  • 4 to 5 oz White Bread (day old bread)
  • 3/4 cup Parmesan Cheese (grated)
  • 2 tbsp Parsley (fresh, chopped finely)
  • 2 tbsp Tyme (fresh, chopped finely)
  • 2 Eggs
  • 1 tbsp Milk
  • 1/3 cup Flour
  • 18 oz Chicken Breast (skinless fillets or tenderloins)
  • 1/2 cup Olive Oil
  • to taste Salt
  • to taste Black Pepper

Step by Step Instructions

Step 1: 

Cut bread into small pieces and place in a food processor until fine breadcrumbs are formed. Mix breadcrumbs, Grated Parmesan Cheese, herbs, salt and pepper together before placing on a flat dish.

Step 2:

In a smaller bowl, beat the eggs and milk together. Spread the flour out over a benchtop or tray.

Step 3:

Remove any fat and white tendons from the chicken, before cutting into smaller strips. Place under plastic wrap, and with a rolling pin or mallet, gently flatten.

Step 4:

Coat each piece in flour, before dipping in the egg mixture. Then coat liberally with the breadcrumb mixture, shaking any excess off. Repeat with remaining chicken pieces, before refrigerating for 30 minutes.

Step 5:

Heat oil in fry pan over medium heat, and fry the chicken in batches until cooked through and the coating is golden brown.
