- 4 skinless chicken breasts
- 75 g (3oz) butter, softened
- 3 garlic cloves, crushed
- Handful fresh parsley, finely chopped
- 75 g (3oz) dried breadcrumbs
- 25 g (1oz) Parmesan cheese, finely grated
- Plain flour, to dust
- 2 medium eggs, lightly beaten
- Step 1
Preheat oven to 200°C (180°C fan) mark 6 and put in a baking tray to heat up. Using a sharp knife, cut through the side of each chicken breast to make a pocket. Working one at a time, lay a fillet down on a board, cover with clingfilm and flatten a little with a rolling pin. Repeat with remaining breasts.
- Step 2
In a small bowl, mix together butter, garlic, parsley and plenty of seasoning. Stuff a quarter of the mixture into each chicken breast pocket.
- Step 3
Mix together breadcrumbs and Parmesan on a large
lipped plate. Put flour and eggs on to separate lipped plates. Working one at a time, coat breasts in flour (tapping off excess), followed by the egg and breadcrumbs.
- Step 4
Transfer coated breasts to the preheated baking tray and cook for 20-25mins or until crispy, golden and the chicken is cooked through. Serve with a green salad and new potatoes, if you like.
