Description
Chicken Romano – An Incredible, Crispy Delight
Ingredients
Scale
- 4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 2 large eggs
- 1 cup breadcrumbs (preferably Italian-style)
- ½ cup grated Romano cheese
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon onion powder
- Salt and pepper to taste
- Olive oil for frying
- Fresh parsley for garnish (optional)
Instructions
- Creating Chicken Romano is a straightforward process. Follow these steps to achieve crispy perfection:
- Place the chicken breasts between two sheets of plastic wrap. Pound them to an even thickness using a meat mallet.
- Set up Breading Station: In three separate shallow dishes, place the flour, beaten eggs, and a mixture of breadcrumbs and Romano cheese seasoned with garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and pepper.
- Dredge the Chicken: Start by coating each chicken breast in flour, shaking off any excess. Next, dip it into the beaten eggs, ensuring it is fully coated. Finally, press the chicken into the breadcrumb mixture, covering it completely.
- Heat the Oil: In a large skillet, heat enough olive oil over medium heat to cover the bottom of the pan (about ¼ inch).
- Fry the Chicken: Once the oil is hot, carefully add the breaded chicken breasts. Cook for 4-5 minutes on each side or until golden brown and cooked through.
- Drain Excess Oil: Transfer the cooked chicken to a plate lined with paper towels to absorb any excess oil.
- Garnish: Optionally, sprinkle with fresh parsley for added color and flavor. Following these steps ensures that your Chicken Romano turns out crispy and delicious every time!
