Winner, winner, Chicken Dinner! This tasty little dish is one we first had at my sister's house and we all loved it so much that I insisted she forward me the recipe. I have made it twice at home since, last week most recently, and, gosh, it gets all sorts of compliments the entire time it cooks and for all the feasting on it after. It's easy to make and easy to eat. Thumbs up from allllll my peeps and Emily's, too. It would be a crime for me to share the food love!
Crispy Cheddar Chicken
from jamiecooksitup.net
Chicken:
4 large chicken breasts
2 sleeves Ritz crackers
1/4 t salt
1/8 t pepper
1/2 C milk
3 C cheddar cheese, grated
1 t dried parsley
Sauce:
1 10 oz. can cream of chicken soup
2 T sour cream
2 T butter
Instructions:
1. Cut each chicken breast into 3 large chunks.
2. In a small food processor, grind up the ritz crackers. (I did it with my hands)
3. Pour the milk, cheese, and cracker crumbs into 3 separate small pans. Toss the salt and pepper into cracker crumbs and stir mixture to combine.
4. Dip each piece of chicken into milk, then the cheese. Press the cheese into the chicken with your fingers. Some it will fall off when you add it to the cracker crumbs, don't worry about it. Press the cheesy chicken into the cracker crumbs and press it in. By the time you are coating the last piece of chicken, the dish you are using for crumbs will be fully of cheese. No worries! Once the cheese melts in the oven, it will adhere nicely to the crumbs and the crackers.
5. Spray a 9x13 dish with cooking spray and lay the chicken inside the pan.
6. Sprinkle the parsley over the chicken.
7. Cover the pan with foil and bake at 400 degrees for 35 mins. Remove the tin foil and bake for an addt'l 10 mins or until the edges of the chicken are golden brown and crispy.
8. Into medium sized sauce pan, combine the cream of chicken soup, sour cream, and butter with a whisk. Stir it over medium high heat until the sauce is nice and hot. Serve over chicken.
So, so yum. Thank me later! ;)
