parmesan chicken

parmesan chicken

i've made this recipe from ina garten for the past five years: it's simple, and the mix of flavors (salty parmesan and arugula with sour lemon vinaigrette) and textures is great. i have my mom to thank for this recipe - she loves ina garten, and i do too! i try not to eat too much deep fried food, and eating it with a big salad like this makes it feel "healthier."

be sure to use chicken breast, and pound them good (HEH) after you put some saran wrap or plastic over them puppies. dredge em in a mix of flour/salt/pepper, then egg/water, then bread crumbs (i used panko here, but i think the seasoned ones you buy at the supermarket are tastier) and parmesan.

fry em up in butter and olive oil and lay em over a nice bed of salad with lemon vinaigrette. don't forget to shear off some parmesan shards onto your salad for maximum umami!
