Ingredients |
|
Italian Name |
| |
6-8 1/4" thick all natural chicken
breasts - thawed |
|
seni pollo |
| |
2 Cups bread crumbs (italian
style or plain) |
|
briciole di pane |
| |
1/2 Cups chopped parsley (organic
is more flavorful if you have it) |
|
Petroselinum crispum |
| |
4 Tablespoons shredded/crumbled romano
cheese |
|
formaggio Romano |
| |
4 Tablespoons or more extra virgin olive
oil (just keep the whole bottle handy) |
|
olio extra vergine di oliva |
| |
Baking pan (use whatever will fit the chicken
breasts without overlapping) |
|

Instructions |
|
|
| 1. |
Wash your hands (do
so after touching raw meat throughout the process too!) |
| 2. |
Preheat oven to 375
degrees. |
| 3. |
Drizzle olive oil
on bottom of pan and spread to cover pan. Set aside. |
| 4. |
Pour breadcrumbs,
parsley and romano cheese in a large bowl and mix it together. |
| 5. |
Dip chicken breasts
in mixture and coat both sides. Use hands to push the mixture
into the meat so it won't just fall off. |
| 6. |
Place breaded chicken
breast in pan and rub around to get the oil soaked in. |
| 7. |
Turn over and do the
same. (The oil in the oven will make the breadcrumbs crispy
giving it a slightly fried texture without the need of frying!) |
| 8. |
Do this for all chicken
breasts and add more oil if need be to pan. |
| 9. |
Cover with tin foil
shiny side down. (The shiny side has the protective coating
on the foil so the aluminum won't affect your cooking since
aluminum is not good to digest.) |
| 10. |
Bake for 35 minutes,
then remove cover. |
| 11. |
Bake for remaining
10 - 15 minutes to allow the oiled mixture to get crispy.
|
| 12. |
Remove and make sure
thickest parts of chicken show no pink inside. |
| |

TIP:
Instead of parsley try fresh chopped basil. A wonderful awesome
twist! |
