Barefoot Contessas Parmesan Chicken Sticks Recipes

Steps:

• Pound the chicken breasts until they are 1/4 inch thick--you can use either a meat mallet or a rolling pin.
• Combine the flour, salt, and pepper on a dinner plate.
• In a bowl (big enough to dip the chicken), break the 2 eggs and whisk them together.
• On a second plate, combine the bread crumbs and 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese.
• 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.
• Serve with extra grated Parmesan cheese, if desired.

Steps:

• Lay the chicken breasts on a cutting board and slice each diagonally into 4 or 5 large strips.
• Combine the flour, salt, and pepper on a dinner plate.
• Beat the eggs with 1 tablespoon of water on a second plate.
• Combine the breadcrumbs and Parmesan on a third plate.
• Dredge the chicken breasts on both sides in the flour mixture, then dip both sides into the egg mixture and roll in the bread-crumb mixture, pressing lightly to coat.
• Heat 1 tablespoon of butter and 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a large saute pan and cook the chicken strips on medium-low heat for about 3 minutes on each side, until just cooked through.
• Don't crowd the pan.
• Add more butter and oil and cook the rest of the chicken breasts.
• Serve each strip on a skewer or stick.
• You can keep the chicken breasts warm for about 15 minutes on a sheet pan in a preheated 200 degree F oven.
