For those of you going LOW CARB……and everyone else who just loves FABULOUS FAST FOOD! PS Don’t make this unless you have a non stick pan. And don’t ignore the instruction to DO NOT MOVE until the parmesan is golden and crispy!!! ~ N x ❤️

Ultra Crispy Parmesan Crusted Chicken
.
500 g / 1 lb chicken breast (2 pieces)
1 egg
1 garlic clove , minced (optional)
Salt and pepper
125 g / 4 oz / 1 1/4 cups shredded parmesan (NOT finely grated)
2 tbsp butter (or more oil)
1 tbsp olive oil
.
Cut each breast in half horizontally to make 4 steaks. If they are much thicker than 1.75 cm / 3/4" thick (at the thickest point), pound a bit.
Whisk egg, garlic, pinch of salt and pepper.
Dredge chicken in egg, then place in parmesan CUT SIDE DOWN. Press, then turn. Coat with extra parmesan, press. Shake off excess. (PS Cut side = better golden crust cause it’s flat, so we want to coat with extra parm).
Melt butter and heat oil in a large skillet over high heat. Put chicken in, DO NOT MOVE, cook 3 minutes until golden and crispy (press lightly with spatula). Turn with tongs, DO NOT MOVE, cook 3 min again. Serve! .
Great with lemon wedges and for ultimate low carb, serve over cauliflower mash and fennel yoghurt slaw! Recipes for both on my site in this Parm Chicken recipe.
