CRISPY PARMESAN ROAST CHICKEN WITH LEMON
Sprinkling grated Parmesan over a whole chicken as it roasts yields extra-crisp, extra-savory skin in this recipe, while chopped fresh rosemary and lemon zest perfume the meat through and through. Be sure to serve this with the lemony pan drippings, which make a bright, rich sauce for the tender meat. Heat lovers should feel free to add plenty of red-pepper flakes to the drippings - or serve red pepper on the side for individual spicing.

Steps:
- Finely grate 1 teaspoon zest from the lemon and place it in a small bowl. (Save the zested lemon for the drippings.) Stir in 2 teaspoons salt, pepper, chopped rosemary and red-pepper flakes, if using. Season the chicken inside and out with salt mixture. Let sit at room temperature for 20 minutes or refrigerate uncovered for up to overnight.
- Heat oven to 425 degrees. Place chicken, breast-side up, in a large skillet, sheet pan or roasting pan. Stuff cavity of chicken with rosemary sprigs. Drizzle breast with a little olive oil.
- Roast chicken for 30 minutes. Sprinkle chicken all over with Parmesan, then continue roasting until bird's juices run clear when skin is pierced with a knife and the skin is golden, 25 to 30 minutes longer.
- Let chicken rest for 10 minutes. Squeeze juice from the zested lemon, to taste, into the pan drippings and season with more salt and red-pepper flakes if you like. Carve and serve with drippings spooned over the meat.
PARMESAN & PANKO CRUSTED CHICKEN
This recipe was adapted from the recipe I found on the back of a Best Food Mayonaise jar. The mayonaise helps provide a moist piece of chicken and helps adhere the panko and cheese to the chicken. Feel free to add more/less of italian seasoning/garlic powder to taste. We are huge fans of garlic so I up the quantity used for our household.

CRUNCHY LEMON-GARLIC-PARMESAN CHICKEN TENDERS
These chicken tenders are fast to make and live up to the name of crunchy chicken tenders. They look larger, because they're pounded out. Do not skip the step of pounding the tenders as it helps to cook the tenders quickly! Also make sure you are using a block of Parmesan and not the green bottle stuff. Serve with your favorite sauce (mine is ranch). Enjoy!

Steps:
- Pound out chicken tenders with a meat mallet until very thin. Remove membranes.
- Set up a breading station with 3 shallow dishes. Combine flour, 1/4 cup and 2 tablespoons Parmesan cheese, garlic, salt, paprika, granulated onion, and pepper in the first bowl; mix until well combined. Whip eggs and remaining Parmesan cheese together in the second dish. Pour panko bread crumbs into the third dish.
- Heat oil in a skillet over medium high heat until oil reaches 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
- Dredge chicken tenders in flour mixture, shaking off excess flour. Then dip tenders into egg mixture, and finally into panko bread crumbs, pressing to make sure panko adheres.
- Pan-fry chicken tenders in the hot oil until browned, about 90 seconds on each side. Remove tenders to a lined drip tray to drain excess fat before serving.

Tips:
- For extra crispy chicken, make sure the chicken is completely coated in the panko mixture before frying.
- If you don't have panko breadcrumbs, you can use regular breadcrumbs or crushed cornflakes.
- To keep the chicken moist, make sure to not overcook it. Cook until the internal temperature reaches 165 degrees Fahrenheit.
- If you don't have a meat thermometer, you can check if the chicken is cooked by cutting into it. The chicken is cooked when the juices run clear.
- Serve the chicken with your favorite sides, such as mashed potatoes, roasted vegetables, or a salad.
Conclusion:
Parmesan panko-crusted chicken with lemon butter sauce is a delicious and easy-to-make meal that is sure to please everyone at the table. The chicken is crispy on the outside and tender on the inside, and the lemon butter sauce is the perfect complement. This dish is perfect for a weeknight dinner or a special occasion.
