Yield Serves 6

Number Of Ingredients 12

1 cup fresh breadcrumbs made from crustless French bread
1 cup yellow cornmeal
2 tablespoons minced fresh parsley
2 tablespoons minced fresh thyme
1 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon ground black pepper
1/2 cup Dijon mustard
2 large eggs
6 skinless boneless chicken breast halves
4 tablespoons butter
4 tablespoons olive oil
Lemon wedges

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350°F. Mix 1 cup breadcrumbs, 1 cup yellow cornmeal, 2 tablespoons minced parsley, 2 tablespoons minced thyme, 1 teaspoon salt and 1/2 teaspoon pepper in large bowl. Whisk 1/2 cup Dijon mustard and 2 eggs in medium bowl to blend.
  • Using mallet or rolling pin, pound each chicken breast half between sheets of plastic wrap to 1/2- to 1/3-inch thickness. Dip pounded chicken first into mustard mixture and coat well, then into breadcrumb mixture and coat well; shake off excess breadcrumbs.
  • Melt 2 tablespoons butter with 2 tablespoons oil in heavy large skillet over medium-high heat. Add half of chicken to skillet; cook until golden, about 2 minutes per side. Transfer chicken to 13 x 9 x 2-inch glass baking dish. Repeat with remaining butter, oil and chicken.
