Best 5 Parmesan Crusted Chicken With Arugula Salad Recipes

PARMESAN-CRUSTED CHICKEN WITH ARUGULA SALAD

Steps:

• 1. Coat a broiler-pan rack with cooking spray. Preheat the broiler. In a shallow bowl, combine the mustard and egg white. In another shallow bowl, combine the bread crumbs, cheese, and lemon peel. Dip the chicken into the mustard mixture, turning to coat, and then into the bread-crumb mixture, pressing to coat thoroughly with crumbs. Place the chicken on the prepared rack.
• 2. Broil 6" from the heat for 10 minutes, turning once, or until golden brown and a thermometer inserted in the thickest portion registers 160°F and the juices run clear. If the chicken browns too quickly, turn off the broiler and bake the chicken in a 350°F oven for 15 minutes, or until golden brown and a thermometer inserted in the thickest portion registers 160°F and the juices run clear.
• 3. Meanwhile, in a medium bowl, whisk together the basil, vinegar, oil, and salt. Add the watercress or arugula, tomatoes, and onion, and toss to coat well. Evenly divide the salad among 4 plates. Top each with a chicken breast.

PARMESAN-CRUSTED CHICKEN WITH ARUGULA SALAD

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 475 degrees.
• In a small bowl, whisk 2 teaspoons of the mustard with 2 teaspoons of the olive oil and the thyme.
• Season the chicken breasts, on both sides, with salt and pepper - then brush them all over with the mustard mixture.
• Pat about 2 T. of the parmesan on EACH chicken breast (both sides) - it should take about 1/2 Cup total for all 4 breasts.
• Transfer the chicken breasts to a rimmed baking sheet (I line mine with alum. foil sprayed with just a touch of Pam - for easy release and clean-up).
• Bake the chicken on the top shelf of the oven for about 15 minutes, or until just cooked through and nicely browned.
• Meanwhile, in a salad bowl, combine the remaining 1 teaspoon each of mustard and oil; then stir in the water.
• Add the arugula (or spring mix lettuce) and tomatoes. Season with salt and pepper and toss well.
• Spoon the salad onto plates, top with the chicken and serve!

PARMESAN CHICKEN

Steps:

• Pound the chicken breasts until they are 1/4-inch thick. You can use either a meat mallet or a rolling pin.
• Combine the flour, salt, and pepper on a dinner plate. On a second plate, beat the eggs with 1 tablespoon of water. On a third plate, combine the bread crumbs and 1/2 cup grated Parmesan. Coat the chicken breasts on both sides with the flour mixture, then dip both sides into the egg mixture and dredge both sides in the bread-crumb mixture, pressing lightly.
• Heat 1 tablespoon of butter and 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a large saute pan and cook 2 or 3 chicken breasts on medium-low heat for 2 to 3 minutes on each side, until cooked through. Add more butter and oil and cook the rest of the chicken breasts. Toss the salad greens with Lemon Vinaigrette. Place a mound of salad on each hot chicken breast. Serve with extra grated Parmesan.
• In a small bowl, whisk together the lemon juice, olive oil, salt, and pepper.
