Roast chicken doesn’t have to be boring! A little creativity and a few spices will give you a chicken worth crossing the road for.
Ingredients:
- ¾ cup all-purpose flour
- 2 tsp salt
- 1 tsp freshly ground black pepper
- ½ tsp cayenne pepper
- 1 egg
- 1 1/3 cup panko bread crumbs
- 1½ tbsp. garlic powder
- 2 split chicken breasts
- 2 tbsp. melted butter
Preparation:
- Preheat oven to 400°. Line a baking sheet with aluminum foil and grease it with nonstick cooking spray.
- In a medium-size shallow bowl, whisk the flour with the salt, pepper, and cayenne to combine. In another shallow bowl, whisk the egg with ¼ cup water to combine. In a third bowl, stir the panko with the garlic powder to combine.
- Working one at a time, dredge the chicken breasts first in the flour mixture, then in the egg mixture, and finally in the panko. Set the chicken breasts on the prepared baking sheet.
- Brush the surface of each breast with 1 tbsp of the melted butter and then roast until the chicken is fully cooked and the panko is golden brown; 40-45 minutes.
