Stove Top Parmesan Crusted Chicken Recipes

PARMESAN CRUSTED CHICKEN

Steps:

• Set up three large shallow bowls in an assembly line. Put the flour in the first bowl; beat the eggs in the second bowl; and mix the bread crumbs, Parmesan cheese, salt, pepper, and chopped fresh herbs in the third bowl.
• Season chicken breasts with salt and pepper. Dredge the first chicken breast in the flour and shake off the excess until just a light coating remains. Next, dip the chicken in the egg mixture and turn to coat evenly, letting any excess egg drip off. Finally, dredge the chicken in the bread crumb mixture, turning a few times to coat well. Set breaded chicken on a plate and repeat until all of the chicken breasts are breaded.
• Heat the oil in a large sauté pan over medium heat. When the oil is hot, add the chicken breasts to the pan and cook for 2 to 3 minutes until the first side is golden brown. Flip and continue cooking until done, 2 to 3 minutes longer. Serve immediately with lemon wedges.
• Note: If chicken breasts are large (8 or more ounces), it's best to cut them in half once they are pounded out. Alternatively, you can cut them in half horizontally before pounding.

STOVE TOP PARMESAN CRUSTED CHICKEN

Steps:

• Lay the chicken out on a cutting board and pat the pieces dry with a paper towel. Salt and pepper both sides of the chicken well.
• Add the cracker crumbs to a dish (like a pie plate or a Tupperware, something shallow with an edge).
• Add the Parmesan cheese to a second dish.
• Add the eggs to a third dish and whisk them well with a fork to beat them until well incorporated.
• After you've gotten everything in your bowls, put a large nonstick or cast iron skillet on the stove over medium to medium-high heat. Add the oil to the pan and let it heat while you prepare the chicken.
• First dip the chicken into the Parmesan, patting it to stick and repeat on the second side of the chicken. Next dip the chicken (coated in Parmesan) into the egg mixture on both sides.
• Then finally dip the egg coated chicken into the bread crumbs, pressing the chicken into the crumbs to help them to stick.
• Place the prepared chicken into the hot oil.
• Repeat with remaining chicken.
• Allow the chicken to cook for 5 or so minutes on one side before flipping to the next side. The coating will be a deep golden brown.
• Cook the chicken until the center reaches 165 degrees F. on an instant read thermometer.
• When the chicken is cooked through, remove it from the pan and place it on a plate. Let the chicken rest for 3 minutes before serving hot.

SKILLET CHICKEN PARMESAN

Steps:

• Slice the chicken breasts in half horizontally to make 4 thin cutlets. Put between 2 pieces of plastic wrap and pound with a meat mallet or heavy skillet until 1/4-inch thick.
• Cut any hard crusts off the bread with a serrated knife, then cut the bread into cubes. Add the bread cubes to a food processor with the motor running, a few pieces at a time, and process to make coarse crumbs (you will have about 1 1/4 cups crumbs).
• Heat 1 tablespoon olive oil in a large nonstick ovenproof skillet over medium-high heat. Add the breadcrumbs and cook, stirring, until golden and crisp, about 3 minutes. Add 2 tablespoons parmesan and cook, stirring, until melted, about 1 more minute. Transfer to a bowl and stir in 2 tablespoons basil; set aside. Preheat the broiler.
• Return the skillet to medium-high heat and add the remaining 1 tablespoon olive oil. Sprinkle the chicken with 1/4 teaspoon salt, and pepper to taste; add to the skillet (in batches, if necessary) and cook until golden and just cooked through, 2 to 3 minutes per side. Transfer to a plate.
• Add the tomato puree, then rinse out the can with 1 cup water and add to the skillet. Add the garlic, red pepper flakes and 1 tablespoon parmesan; reduce the heat to medium and simmer, stirring occasionally, until the sauce is slightly thickened, about 10 minutes. Stir in the remaining 1/4 cup basil and season with salt and pepper.
• Return the chicken to the skillet, turning to coat with the sauce. Top with the remaining 1 tablespoon parmesan and all but a few tablespoons of the toasted breadcrumb mixture. Sprinkle with the mozzarella and the remaining breadcrumbs. Broil until the cheese melts, 1 to 2 minutes.

• Combine Parmesan cheese, panko, and garlic powder in a shallow bowl and set aside.
• Sprinkle chicken on both sides with salt and pepper. Brush skin liberally with mayonnaise. Press each thigh, skin-side down, into crumb mixture. Place thighs on baking sheet, skin-side up, and mist lightly with cooking spray.
• Bake in the preheated oven until chicken is no longer pink in the center and juices run clear, 35 to 40 minutes. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 165 degrees F (74 degrees C).

STOVE TOP PARMESAN CHICKEN

Steps:

• 1. Dip chicken pieces in slightly beaten eggs, then dip in bread crumbs.
• 2. Fry in skillet on stovetop in "I Can't Believe It's Butter" spray (no calories!) on medium high heat until brown. Turn down heat, cook until done in center.
• 3. When done, pour small jar of Barilla's Spicy Marinara sauce over chicken. Cook on low until sauce is thoroughly heated. (At this point, you can also transfer it to a baking dish and put in the oven if you want to slow it down a little bit). The acid in the marinara sauce makes the chicken VERY tender.
• 4. Top with shredded parmesan cheese (not the powder) and shredded mozzarella. (I mix the two together before putting on chicken).
• 5. Cook, (covered) until cheese is melted. Serve with a veggie and salad and you have dinner!
