Garlic Lover's Chicken

This was a little bit of heaven. I have grown leery of breaded chicken dishes because they seem to be fickle. Maybe it's just this chef's talent (or lack thereof), but they either don't cook evenly or taste blah each time I make them. This was the opposite: it was perfect!

  • 1/2 cup dry bread crumbs
  • 1/3 cup grated Parmesan cheese
  • 2 Tbsp minced fresh parsley
  • 1/2 tsp salt, optional
  • 1/8 tsp pepper
  • 1/4 cup milk
  • 6 boneless, skinless chicken breast halves (1 1/2 lbs)
  • 1 to 2 garlic cloves
  • 1/4 cup butter, melted
  • 2 Tbsp lemon juice
  • paprika
Preheat oven to 350 degrees. In a large resealable plastic bag, combine the bread crumbs, cheese, parsley, salt if desired and pepper. Place milk in a shallow bowl. Dip chicken in milk, then shake in the crumb mixture. Place chicken in a greased 13 x 9 inch baking dish. Combine the butter, garlic and lemon juice; drizzle over the chicken. Sprinkle with paprika. Bake, uncovered for 25-30 minutes, or until a meat thermometer reads 170 degrees.
