BREADED LEMON CHICKEN RECIPE RECIPES

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350°.
• Butter an 11 x 7-inch or a 9-inch baking pan baking dish (if doubling the recipe to make 12 breasts, use a 13 x 9-inch pan.
• In a bowl, combine the dry breadcrumbs, parmesan cheese, garlic powder, parsley, salt and pepper.
• In another bowl combine the melted butter/garlic mixture and lemon juice; whisk well to combine (if you run out of butter when dipping the breasts, which has happened to me many times, just melt about another 1/4 cup butter and add in about 1 tablespoon more of lemon juice in the microwave.
• Dip chicken in butter mixture, then roll in crumbs (patting down the crumbs into the chicken breasts).
• Roll-up chicken jelly-roll style; place seam side down in a greased baking dish drizzle with any remaining butter mixture; sprinkle with paprika if desired.
• Place a slice of cheese on top the last 10 minutes of baking if desired.
• Bake uncovered for 35-45 minutes or until the chicken is cooked though (baking time will vary depending on how thin you pounded the chicken).

Steps:

• Place chicken and lemon juice into a zip-lock bag.
• Refrigerate for 2 hours turning pieces occasionally.
• Remove chicken from bag and pat dry with paper towels.
• In a medium mixing bowl, blend together salt and flour.
• Place each chicken breast into flour and shake off excess.
• In another bowl, lightly beat egg.
• After chicken is dipped into flour dip it then into the beaten egg.
• In a skillet, brown chicken breasts in oil.
• The oil should be 1/4 inch at all times during frying.
• If you can't fry all the chicken at the same time, place cooked chicken on a warm platter in an oven preheated to 200°F.
• Cover cooked chicken with aluminum foil.
• Place cut lemon wedges on platter with chicken before serving.
