Ingredients

  • NatureRaised Farms® Boneless Skinless Chicken Breast Portions
  • 1 cup Italian bread crumbs
  • Zest of 2 lemons plus more, for garnish
  • 1/2 cup grated parmesan cheese
  • Salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste
  • 1/2 cup all-purpose flour
  • 2 large eggs beaten

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 375 degrees F. Line a large cookie sheet pan with foil. Spray the foil with cooking spray. Set pan aside.
  2. In a large bowl, combine bread crumbs, lemon zest, and parmesan; set aside.
  3. Working one at a time, dredge chicken in flour, dip into eggs, then dredge in bread crumbs mixture, pressing to coat.
  4. Season chicken with salt and pepper, to taste, and top off with a little extra lemon zest and parmesan.
  5. Bake for 25- 30 minutes. Make sure chicken is completely done as cooking time varies by the size of the chicken breast. (I also use a meat thermometer to check.)
  6. Sprinkle with fresh lemon juice before serving.
