Chicken Guadalajara Recipes

PARMESAN BAKED CHICKEN BREASTS

Steps:

• Marinate the chicken breasts with olive oil, garlic powder, lemon juice, black pepper, cayenne pepper and salt. The marinade will be paste-y and not liquidy, like the picture below. While the chicken breasts are marinating, preheat oven to 400°F (207°C). Top the marinated chicken breasts with the grated Parmesan cheese evenly. Bake the chicken for about 20-30 minutes, until a meat thermometer hits 165 degrees Fahrenheit when inserted into the thickest part of the breasts. Remove the Parmesan baked chicken from the oven. Serve immediately with fresh lemon wedges, squeeze the juice on the chicken for extra flavors. You may also serve the chicken with your favorite hot sauce.

• Heat remaining butter in the same skillet until hot. Add chili peppers, onion, and crushed red pepper. Cook and stir about 5 minutes or until tender but not brown, stirring up any browned bits. Add cream to the skillet and bring just to a low boil. Return chicken to skillet, and stir until combined. Simmer, uncovered, for 1 minute more or until sauce is slightly thickened.
