Ingredients

Scale
  • 4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts (about 6 ounces each)
  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1 cup breadcrumbs (preferably panko for extra crunch)
  • 1/2 cup grated Romano cheese
  • 1 teaspoon dried oregano
  • 1 teaspoon dried thyme
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon onion powder
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • 1/4 cup olive oil for frying
  • 1 cup heavy cream
  • 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese
  • 1 tablespoon lemon juice
  • Fresh parsley, chopped, for garnish

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Chicken Breasts: Place the chicken breasts between two sheets of plastic wrap and pound them to about 1/2 inch thickness. Season both sides with salt and pepper.
  2. Set Up a Breading Station: In one dish, add flour. In a second dish, whisk the eggs. In a third dish, mix breadcrumbs, Romano cheese, oregano, thyme, garlic powder, onion powder, and seasoning.
  3. Dredge the Chicken: Dredge each chicken breast in flour, dip in the egg mixture, then coat in breadcrumbs. Press lightly to ensure an even coat.
  4. Fry the Chicken: Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Add breaded chicken (in batches if needed) and cook for 4-5 minutes on each side until golden. Drain on paper towels.
  5. Prepare the Cream Sauce: Heat heavy cream in a saucepan until warm. Whisk in grated Parmesan until smooth, then add lemon juice and simmer to thicken.
  6. Serve the Dish: Place chicken on plates, drizzle with cream sauce, and garnish with parsley. Enjoy with sides of your choice.

Notes

For extra crunch, double dip your chicken. Ensure oil is hot enough to avoid greasiness. Can be baked as a lighter alternative.
