Italian Chicken
Okay this isn’t fancy or exciting folks, but it was good. My mother-in-law got Joel and I some Omaha Steak things for Christmas. In there was chicken. I wanted to keep it simple and see if these really were any different than plain Jane store chicken.
4 4oz chicken breasts
6 tbs of parmesan (I use Locatelli)
2 tbs Italian seasoning
1 tsp salt
1 clove of garlic
1 tbs olive oil
Mix parmesan, Italian seasoning, a nd salt together. Set aside
Heat oil in a skillet and add garlic and turn heat up to medium high.
Dredge chicken in the cheese-herb mixture and lay in pan with oil and garlic.
Cook each side for 1 minute. Reduce heat to medium low.
Cook each side for an additional 4 minutes.
Remove from heat and let set for about 5 minutes.
Serve.
I do have to say, these were particularly good chicken breast, nice and juicy and supple. Worth the price…not so much. We had this with just plan old frozen spinach that I cooked in some oil (about 1 tsp) and a clove of garlic. I added about ½ cup of chickpeas to 2 cups of spinach, and 2 tbs of Greek yogurt, a pinch of crushed red pepper and salt….good. My husband asked for a repeat performance tonight with our salmon.

simple. is. good.
my kids would devour this. or should i say that my kids WILL devour this. i'm totally making this this week.
I've always wanted to try the steaks!
The chicken looks great. The only way I can cook mine is to check the temp with thermometer.
I make chicken breast many times, but not this way. Thank you for this original recipe.
I should admit that I had more attention on the spinach side dish you just mentioned. As I love vegetables, I'll soon try this to serve with any kind of main dish. Thanks for sharing.
Sounds easy enough and looks good. Perfect weeknight dinner.
This sounds so simple, I can't wait to try it!
