Parmesan Chicken

2002, Barefoot Contessa Family Style, All Rights Reserved

Combine the flour, salt, and pepper on a dinner plate. On a second plate, beat the eggs with 1 tablespoon of
water. On a third plate, combine the bread crumbs and 1/2 cup grated Parmesan. Coat the chicken breasts on
both sides with the flour mixture, then dip both sides into the egg mixture and dredge both sides in the
bread-crumb mixture, pressing lightly.

Heat 1 tablespoon of butter and 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a large saute pan and cook 2 or 3 chicken breasts
on medium-low heat for 2 to 3 minutes on each side, until cooked through. Add more butter and oil and cook the
rest of the chicken breasts. Toss the salad greens with lemon vinaigrette. Place a mound of salad on each hot
chicken breast. Serve with extra grated Parmesan.

Ingredients

1/4 cup freshly squeezed lemon juice (2 lemons)
1/2 cup good olive oil
1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper

Directions

In a small bowl, whisk together the
lemon juice, olive oil, salt, and pepper.
