Garlic Butter Chicken


Chicken breasts cooked in a garlicky, buttery, coating? Yes, please!

The Details:
4 boneless skinless chicken breast
Flour
2 eggs
milk
1 sleeve crushed Ritz crackers
salt and pepper
powdered garlic
1/4 c. melted butter
Parsley

Preheat over to 350 degrees. Mix a pinch of salt, a dash of pepper, and about a tablespoon (more or less to taste) of powdered garlic in with crushed Ritz crackers. Whisk together eggs and a splash of milk. Coat each chicken breast in flour, dunk in egg mixture, and then coat with crushed crackers. Place in pan. Pour melted butter over and around chicken. Sprinkle with parsley. Back for 45 minutes, or until done(180 degree internal temperature).



The best way I've found to crush the crackers is to dump them into a gallon sized storage bag, seal, and smash with a rolling pin. They seem to coat the chicken better when there is smaller crumbs. You can also mix the melted butter with the remaining cracker crumbs and sprinkle that over the chicken instead of just pouring the butter over the chicken.  Bone-in chicken breast or chicken tenders can also be used, you will just need to adjust the cooking time.

Happy Cooking!
