CRISPY CHEDDAR CHICKEN



Crispy Cheddar Chicken image

This chicken dish is quick and easy and delish! I do these a little differently than most. Can use Ritz crackers but I like the bread crumbs as I like to taste the cheddar cheese. I also like the texture of the bread crumbs better. I also do not use eggs to dip the chicken in. By the way, very kid friendly! By the way, I am...

Categories     Gravies

Time 40m

Number Of Ingredients 11

4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
3 c sharp cheddar cheese, shredded
3 c plain bread crumbs
1 c milk
salt & pepper
1 tsp garlic salt
1 Tbsp parsley
sauce *************************
1 can cream of chicken soup
2 Tbsp sour cream
2 Tbsp butter

Steps:

  • 1. Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Slice chicken breasts into three pieces. This will help your chicken cook quicker, and make it easy to serve the children.
  • 2. Gather three pans or dishes to fill with the milk, sharp cheddar, and breadcrumbs. Add the salt and pepper and garlic salt into the breadcrumbs and mix.
  • 3. Dip chicken pieces in the milk first, then roll in the cheese and then gently with your hands sprinkle the breadcrumbs all over the chicken, to cover.
  • 4. Line baking sheet with parchment paper and place chicken on parchment and sprinkle the tops of the chicken with parsley. Bake for 25-30 minutes or until golden and juice runs clear. (time depends on size of chicken pieces so watch closely)
  • 5. Prepare the sauce by mixing all the sauce ingredients in a small sauce pan until hot. I add a little pepper to the sauce. Spoon over the chicken. Serve with your choice of potatoes, pasta or rice for a side.

1/2 cup whole milk
3 cups cheddar cheese, grated
1 teaspoon dried parsley
Sauce:
1 10 ounce can cream of chicken soup
2 tablespoon sour cream
2 tablespoon butter

Tips:

  • To achieve the crispiest chicken, use a combination of flour, cornstarch, and breadcrumbs in the coating.
  • Make sure the chicken is evenly coated in the egg mixture before dredging in the flour mixture.
  • Use a deep fryer or a large saucepan filled with oil to fry the chicken. The oil should be at least 3 inches deep.
  • Fry the chicken in batches to avoid overcrowding the pan and lowering the oil temperature.
  • Fry the chicken until it is golden brown and cooked through, about 5-7 minutes per side. Drain the chicken on paper towels.
  • Serve the chicken immediately with your favorite dipping sauce.

Conclusion:

Crispy Cheddar Chicken is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for any occasion. The chicken is coated in a flavorful breadcrumb mixture and then fried until golden brown.
