Parmesan-Crusted Chicken

Parmesan-Crusted Chicken
Prep Time 10 minutes
Cook Time 14 minutes
Total Time 24 minutes

Ingredients

  • 1/4 cup extra-virgin olive oil
  • 2 cups shredded Parmesan
  • 4 (6 to 8-oz.) boneless, skinless chicken breasts
  • fresh ground black pepper

Instructions

  1. Pound the chicken breasts out slightly to make them a uniform thickness for faster cooking.
  2. Roll out a piece of waxed paper or foil, and pile the shredded parmesan cheese on top.
  3. Add the olive oil to a large nonstick skillet and heat over medium high heat until very hot.
  4. Season your chicken breasts with black and then press the breasts firmly into the cheese, coating both sides with as much cheese as possible.
  5. Set the chicken breasts in the skillet and cook for about 7 minutes on each side, until cheese forms an even, golden casing and the chicken is cooked through.
