Very Ritzy Italian Chicken Recipes

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350°F. Dip chicken breasts in eggs, then in bread crumbs. Coat the chicken with the bread crumbs.
• In large skillet, heat oil until moderately hot. Place chicken in fry pan and brown lightly on both sides. Remove from pan and place in baking dish. Top each breast with sliced mozzarella cheese.
• In saucepan, mix together half-and-half, parmesan cheese, parsley, salt and pepper. Cook until mixture is hot and has thickened. Pour over chicken.
• Bake for 25 minutes or until cheese is melted and light golden brown.

Steps:

• Heat oven to 200C/fan 180C/gas 6. Heat the oil in a large, shallow ovenproof pan, add the chicken and cook for 3-4 mins until golden all over. Remove from pan and set aside.
• Add the onion and peppers, and cook for 3 mins or until lightly golden. Tip in the garlic and fry for a min. Stir in the rice, then the tomatoes, stock and reserved chicken. Turn up the heat and bring to the boil before transferring to the oven to cook, uncovered, for 20 mins. Season to taste and drizzle over the pesto before serving.

Steps:

• Place chicken in casserole dish.
• Spread soup over chicken.
• Sprinkle crackers over soup.
• Pour butter over crackers.
• Bake 350 for 45 minutes.

Steps:

• Position rack in the bottom third of the oven and heat oven to 450 degrees. Place an ovenproof wire rack over a sheet pan. Dab a folded-up paper towel with olive oil and rub it over the wire rack to grease it.
• In a medium bowl, whisk together the sour cream, egg white and Dijon mustard until smooth. Season with salt. Lay the chicken flat on a cutting board and carve each breast in half horizontally so you end up with four thin cutlets. Add the chicken to the sour cream mixture, and using your hands, smear the sour cream all over the chicken.
• In a large bowl, crush the Ritz crackers into coarse pieces with your fingers. Some crackers will turn to rubble while others turn to dust. Add the cheese, garlic powder, onion powder and olive oil. Season with 1/2 teaspoon salt and toss until evenly distributed. Holding one of the chicken cutlets by its thinner end, add to the bowl with the crumbs, and using your hands, pack the crumbs onto the chicken, pressing them in to create a thick coating. Transfer the breaded chicken to the rack in the sheet pan. Repeat with the remaining three cutlets.
• Bake the cutlets until the outsides are crispy and the insides are no longer pink, 10 to 15 minutes. Let the chicken cool slightly so the coating can set, about 5 minutes, before transferring to plates and serving.
