Ingredients
Scale
- 2 chicken breasts
- 1 cup dill pickles (chopped)
- 1 cup Parmesan cheese (grated)
- 1 cup breadcrumbs
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon onion powder
- Salt and pepper to taste
- 1 egg (beaten)
- Oil for frying
Instructions
- Prepare the chicken by trimming any fat and patting it dry.
- Mix chopped dill pickles with the beaten egg in one bowl.
- In a second bowl, mix grated Parmesan, breadcrumbs, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and pepper.
- Dip each chicken breast into the pickle and egg mix, then press into the breadcrumb mixture to coat well.
- Heat a little oil in a skillet over medium heat.
- Add the chicken and cook 4–5 minutes per side until golden brown.
- If you want to bake, preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C) and transfer the browned chicken to a baking dish.
- Bake 15–20 minutes until the chicken is fully cooked.
- Let the chicken rest for a few minutes, then slice and serve warm.
Notes
Pat the chicken dry to help the coating stick. Press crumbs firmly for a better crust.
