CHICKEN SPECTACULAR

When I had a baby 12 years ago a lady at my church brought me this dish. It was so good I asked for the recipe. I've seen the recipe in The Cotton Country Collection and several other cookbook but have not seen it on Recipezaar. I like to cook the rice in the water saved from cooking the chicken. I think it adds to the flavor of the dish.

Time 40m

Yield 6

Number Of Ingredients 5

Ingredients

3 eggs
salt and ground black pepper to taste
1 cup French fried onions
6 skinless, boneless chicken breast halves
6 slices provolone cheese

Steps:

Preheat an oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
Beat eggs in a bowl; season with salt and pepper. Spread the French fried onions on a plate. Dip each chicken breast into the egg, then coat one side of the chicken breast with the fried onion. Place chicken with onions on top on a 9x13 inch baking pan.
Bake the chicken breasts in the preheated oven until no longer pink in the center and the juices run clear, about 25 minutes. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 165 degrees F (74 degrees C). Place one slice of provolone cheese on top of each chicken breast and return the pan to the oven, baking until the cheese is melted, 3 to 5 minutes.

1 can(s) cream of celery soup
1 jar(s) diced pimentos (med. size jar)

Tips:

Use a variety of cooking methods. Chicken can be baked, roasted, grilled, pan-fried, or slow-cooked. Each method produces a different flavor and texture, so experiment to find your favorites.
Season your chicken. Chicken is a mild-flavored meat, so it benefits from being seasoned well. Use a variety of herbs, spices, and citrus to add flavor. Marinating your chicken before cooking can also help to add flavor and moisture.
Don't overcook your chicken. Chicken is best when it is cooked to an internal temperature of 165 degrees Fahrenheit. Overcooked chicken is dry and tough.
Let your chicken rest before serving. Letting your chicken rest for a few minutes before serving allows the juices to redistribute throughout the meat, resulting in a more tender and flavorful dish.

Conclusion:

Chicken is a versatile and delicious meat that can be enjoyed in many different ways. By following these tips, you can cook chicken perfectly every time. Whether you're looking for a quick and easy weeknight meal or a special occasion dish, you're sure to find a chicken recipe that you'll love.
