BREADED CHICKEN BREASTS WITH PARMESAN CHEESE
Breading is one of the finest and most versatile cooking techniques. It's easy and quick, and foods properly breaded and cooked are particularly tempting. Pair this dish with a quick ratatouille, a white or red wine (try a lightly chilled Beaujolais), a tossed green salad, and a sherbet or ice for dessert.

Steps:
- Cut away and discard any white membranes or traces of fat from the breast halves. Sprinkle each with salt and pepper.
- Put the flour in a shallow dish. Dip the breasts in the flour. Coat well, and shake off excess.
- Combine the egg with water, salt and pepper in another shallow dish, and beat to blend.
- Combine the bread crumbs with Parmesan cheese in a third dish, and blend.
- Dip the breast halves in the egg mixture, coating thoroughly. Drain off excess. Dip the pieces in the bread-crumb mixture, also coating thoroughly. Pat the pieces lightly with the flat side of a large knife to make the crumbs adhere.
- Heat the oil, preferably in a nonstick skillet, and add the breasts. Cook over moderately high heat until golden brown on one side, 3 to 4 minutes. Turn and cook 3 to 4 minutes or until golden brown on the second side.
- Transfer the chicken to a warm platter; pour the fat from the skillet.
- Add the butter to the skillet, and cook until bubbling. Add the tarragon and lemon juice; blend. Pour the sauce over the chicken, and serve immediately.

CRISPY PARMESAN BREADED CHICKEN FOR ONE
I like my breaded chicken with a crisp crust, but a lot of juice on the inside. I added some twists onto your basic parmesan and breadcrumb crusted chicken to suit my tastes and thought I'd share the wonderful results. I'm sure you have all of these ingredients on hand in your pantry already. Seasoning in the breading is subject to taste and can be varied to suit your spice mood ;-)

CHICKEN PESTO PARMESAN (NON-BREADED)
A non-breaded but super tasty spin on chicken parmesan. This is a recipe I just threw together one day when I was trying to think of something to do with chicken breasts and a little leftover pasta sauce. It's EASY and takes no time at all to prep if you have pre-made sauce and pesto. I make this with Kittencal's Perfect Pesto (#144195) and my own Magic Fresh Tomato Sauce (#388224). I never bother measuring myself, so you might have to adjust the amount of tomato sauce so it's close to but not covering the top of the chicken. Serve this with angel hair pasta if desired. Once again, I will beg you to use real shredded parmesan cheese and not the powdered stuff in a can. This makes a huge difference, and you don't even have to shred it yourself if you don't want to - just pick up a bag of pre-shredded. Any Italian blend cheese works great too.

Steps:
- Spoon a little tomato sauce in a baking pan to cover the bottom and lay chicken breasts on top. Add more sauce around (but not on top of) breasts as desired, but only enough to come a little way up the sides of the chicken - make sure the top is uncovered!.
- Divide and spread pesto on each chicken breast, adjusting the quantity depending on how much you like pesto - I use a lot!
- Bake at 350 for 30-40 minutes until chicken is done (juices run clear). The exact amount of time will vary depending on the size/thickness of your chicken, so you have to watch them (I recommend a meat thermometer).
- About 5-10 minutes before chicken is done, top each breast with shredded cheese.
- Serve chicken breasts with or without pasta, spooning sauce from the pan around or on top of chicken.
Tips:
- To achieve a crispy breading, make sure to double coat the chicken in the flour, egg, and breadcrumb mixture.
- Use a heavy-bottomed skillet or frying pan to ensure even cooking and prevent the chicken from burning.
- Cook the chicken over medium heat to allow it to cook through without overcooking the breading.
- To prevent the cheese from becoming rubbery, place the chicken in a preheated oven to melt the cheese quickly.
- Serve the chicken parmesan immediately with your favorite pasta and marinara sauce for a delicious and satisfying meal.
