Chicken A La Chardone

Last week, I told you that I would be posting a new chicken recipe when I received it from the lady who cooked it for us at her house. She sent it to me today so here it is. Pat, thanks for introducing us to a most amazing delicious recipe that is just so easy and so good. The chicken was just the most moist and flavorful I have tasted in quite a while.

4 half breasts (boned and skinned – Pat uses thin sliced breasts)

1 egg

1 stick of butter

salt and pepper (optional) Pat didn’t use any!

2 tbsp. dried parsley

2 tsps garlic powder

juice of ½ lemon

¼ cup Italian bread crumbs

¼ cup Parmesan cheese

½ lb mushrooms sliced

Beat egg with 1 tsp garlic powder, (adding salt and pepper to taste) – SET ASIDE!

In another bowl mix bread crumbs, parmesan cheese and ½ tsp garlic powder.

Dip each piece of chicken in egg mixture and dredge through cheese mixture.  Lay one layer deep in glass baking dish.

Melt butter.  Stir in remaining ½ tsp garlic powder, lemon juice and parsley.  Mix together and drizzle ½ mix over chicken.  Bake at 375 degree for 30 –35 minutes.

Slice mushrooms.  Sprinkle on chicken.  Drizzle last of butter sauce over top.  Bake another 10 minutes.  Serve with white rice.
