"People can't believe it when I tell them how little time it takes to fix this delicious chicken," reports Mollie Hall of San Ramon, California. "It's very moist inside and so pretty to serve with its lovely basil-flecked coating."

Ingredients

  • 4 boneless skinless chicken breast halves (4 ounces each)
  • 1/2 cup seasoned bread crumbs
  • 1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese
  • 1/2 teaspoon dried basil
  • 1 egg
  • 1 tablespoon butter
  • 1 tablespoon vegetable oil

Directions

  1. Flatten chicken to 1/4-in. thickness. In a shallow bowl, combine the bread crumbs, Parmesan cheese and basil. In another shallow bowl, beat the egg. Dip chicken into egg, then coat with crumb mixture.
  2. In a large skillet, brown chicken over medium heat in butter and oil for 3-5 minutes on each side or until juices run clear.
