Description
Crispy Dill Pickle Parmesan Chicken is an ultimate, flavor-packed recipe featuring juicy chicken breasts marinated in dill pickle juice, coated in a Parmesan-breadcrumb crust, and fried to golden perfection.
Ingredients
- 4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
- 1 cup dill pickle juice
- 1 cup breadcrumbs (preferably seasoned)
- 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese
- 2 large eggs
- 1/2 cup all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon onion powder
- 1/2 teaspoon paprika
- Salt and pepper, to taste
- Cooking oil, for frying
Instructions
- Marinate chicken breasts in dill pickle juice for at least 30 minutes.
- In a shallow dish, combine breadcrumbs, Parmesan cheese, garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, salt, and pepper.
- Set up a breading station: one plate with flour, one bowl with beaten eggs, and one with breadcrumb mixture.
- Dredge each chicken breast in flour, dip into eggs, then coat with breadcrumb mixture.
