Ingredients
  

Ingredients
  • 4 boneless skinless chicken breasts (about 1 1/2 pounds)
  • 1/2 cup all-purpose flour
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1 tablespoon water
  • 1 cup seasoned breadcrumbs
  • 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese
  • 1 teaspoon kosher salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon dried parsley
  • 1/2 teaspoon dried thyme
  • 1/4 cup Wisconsin Cheese & Herb Infused Olive Oil Blend
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 tablespoon unsalted butter
  • 1 lemon cut into wedges

Equipment

  • 1 Large skillet For browning and finishing the chicken
  • 3 Shallow Bowls For the flour, egg, and breadcrumb stations
  • 1 Tongs For turning the chicken safely
  • 1 Instant-read thermometer For checking doneness
  • 1 Cutting board For resting and slicing if desired

Method
 

Instructions
  1. Pat the chicken breasts dry and, if needed, pound them to an even thickness.
  2. Set up three shallow bowls: one with flour, one with eggs whisked with water, and one with breadcrumbs, Parmesan, salt, black pepper, garlic powder, parsley, and thyme.
  3. Dredge each chicken breast in flour, dip into the egg mixture, and press firmly into the breadcrumb mixture to coat both sides.
  4. Heat the olive oil and butter in a large skillet over medium heat until the butter melts and the pan looks glossy.
  5. Add the chicken breasts and cook for 3 to 4 minutes per side, until the crust is deep golden brown.
  6. Reduce the heat to medium-low, brush the tops with the Wisconsin Cheese & Herb Infused Olive Oil Blend, cover loosely, and cook 6 to 8 minutes more until the chicken is cooked through.
  7. Transfer the chicken to a plate and rest for 5 minutes before serving with lemon wedges.

Notes

For the best crust, press the breadcrumbs firmly onto the chicken so they adhere well. If you prefer a more baked finish, sear the chicken briefly in a skillet, then finish it in a 400°F oven until cooked through. Serve hot for the crispest texture.
