Hey there, foodies! Let me tell you about a mouth-watering recipe that’s been driving my family absolutely crazy (in the best way possible). You know those moments when you want to feel like you’re dining at a fancy restaurant without breaking the bank? Well, honey, I’ve got just the thing for you – my Crispy Parmesan-Crusted Chicken with Honey Garlic Sauce.
Let me tell you, the first time I made this, my husband literally stopped mid-bite and gave me that “Where has this been all my life?” look. Trust me, it’s THAT good! 😍
Here’s what you’ll need:
– 4 chicken breasts
– 1 cup grated Parmesan
– 1 cup Panko breadcrumbs
– 2 eggs
– 1/2 cup flour
– Seasonings: garlic powder, paprika, salt, pepper
– Oil for frying
For that heavenly sauce:
– 4 tbsp honey
– 3 minced garlic cloves
– 2 tbsp soy sauce
– 1 tbsp butter
– A splash of lemon juice
Okay, girlfriends (and guy friends!), if you’re loving this recipe so far, make sure to follow me on Newsbreak for daily doses of deliciousness. I share everything from quick weeknight dinners to fancy weekend treats!
Now, let’s get cooking:
1. First things first, butterfly those chicken breasts. Don’t be shy – we want them nice and thin!
1. Set up your dredging station: flour in one dish, beaten eggs in another, and mix the Parmesan, Panko, and seasonings in a third.
1. Here’s my little secret (shhh!): after dredging in flour and egg, let the chicken sit in the Parmesan mixture for about 2 minutes. Trust your girl on this one – it makes the coating stick better!
1. Heat your oil to 350°F. You want it hot enough to hear that satisfying sizzle!
1. Fry each piece for about 4-5 minutes per side until golden brown and cooked through. Place them on a wire rack – nobody likes soggy bottom chicken!
For the sauce (which is literally to die for):
1. Melt that butter in a pan
2. Add garlic (more is more, am I right? 😉)
3. Mix in honey, soy sauce, and lemon juice
4. Let it simmer until slightly thickened
Drizzle that liquid gold all over your crispy chicken and prepare for a flavor explosion!
Y’all, I can’t even tell you how many times I’ve made this for dinner parties, and every single time, people beg for the recipe. It’s like having a 5-star restaurant meal right in your kitchen!
