Breaded Garlic Chicken In Lemon Butter Sauce Recipes

BREADED GARLIC CHICKEN IN LEMON-BUTTER SAUCE

Steps:

• Place the seasoned flour in a large gallon-size ziploc bag. Set aside. In a shallow pie plate, beat the eggs until mixed and add the Parmesan cheese. Whisk to combine. Set aside.
• In a large skillet, melt one tablespoon butter and one tablespoon olive oil over medium heat. Let it begin to heat and sizzle while you prepare the chicken but be careful not to let the butter burn and turn brown.
• Put the four chicken breasts in the bag with the seasoned flour, close the bag, and shake to coat the chicken in the flour. One by one, take the chicken out of the bag and dip into the egg/Parmesan mixture. Place the chicken carefully in the skillet with the hot oil/butter. Repeat with the other chicken breasts. Let the chicken cook on the first side, without moving or flipping the chicken, for 1-2 minutes until a nice, golden crust has formed. Carefully, using a wide spatula, flip the chicken and let it continue to cook for 1-2 minutes on the other side until it is golden brown. The chicken will flip easiest if it has had time to sizzle and cook to form a nice crust.
• Remove the chicken to a 9X13-inch pan. Set aside while you make the sauce.
• In the same skillet that you browned the chicken, melt the remaining four tablespoons butter. Add the minced garlic, lemon juice, and parsley. Simmer the sauce for 1-2 minutes, stirring and scraping up any browned bits that were on the bottom of the skillet.
• Pour the sauce evenly over the chicken breasts and bake at 350 degrees for 35 minutes, until the chicken is cooked through. Serve over noodles, rice or potatoes.

BREADED LEMON-GARLIC CHICKEN BREASTS

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).
