You don’t have to actually fry your chicken to get that tempting fried taste.
This recipe is cooked in the oven and has a delicious nuttiness from the almonds to top it off.
Prep Time 10m
Cook Time 25m
Total Time 35m
makes 6 servings
Ingredients
1 cup bread crumbs, whole-wheat, coarse, dried
1/4 cup cheese, Parmesan (1 ounce), grated
1/4 cup nuts, almonds finely chopped
2 tablespoon parsley, fresh chopped
1 clove garlic crushed
1 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon thyme, dried
1 pinch pepper, black ground
1/4 cup oil, olive, extra-virgin
2 pounds chicken, breast, boneless, skinless pounded to 1/2" thickness and cut into 12 pieces
1 sprig parsley, Italian for garnish
Instructions
Preheat the oven to 400°F.
In a medium bowl, combine the bread crumbs, cheese, almonds, parsley, garlic, salt, thyme, and pepper.
Mix thoroughly.
Place the oil in a shallow dish.
Dip the chicken first in the oil, then dredge in the crumb mixture.
Place the chicken in a shallow baking pan.
Bake for 25 minutes, or until a thermometer inserted in the center of a piece registers 165°F and the juices run clear.
(Do not turn the chicken during cooking.)
Garnish with the parsley.
