Time 55m

Number Of Ingredients 14

1/2 c butter, melted
1 tsp garlic salt
1 c all-purpose flour
2 tsp salt
2 tsp black pepper
4 tsp granulated garlic
2 eggs
2 Tbsp milk
2 c sharp cheddar cheese, grated
1 c French's french fried onions, crushed
1 c Panko bread crumbs
1 c crispy rice cereal
6 chicken breast halves, skinless and boneless
4 Tbsp butter, melted

Steps:

  • 1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Coat a 13x9x2" baking dish with 1/2 cup of melted butter.
  • 2. Sprinkle garlic salt on chicken breast and set aside.
  • 3. In a bowl, mix the flour, salt, pepper, and granulated garlic. In a second bowl, beat together the egg and milk. In a third bowl, mix the cheese, bread crumbs, fried onions, and cereal. Dredge chicken in the flour mixture, then dip in the egg mixture, then press in the breadcrumb mixture to coat.
  • 4. Arrange the chicken (do not overcrowd) in the prepared baking dish. Drizzle 4 tablespoons melted butter evenly over chicken. (My family loves extra crunchies, so I make sure to add some of the leftover bread crumbs between the chicken before adding the butter.)
  • 5. Bake 35-45 minutes or until coating is golden brown and chicken juices run clear.

AMERICAN FRENCH ONION SOUP



American French Onion Soup image

This recipe takes French onion soup and gives it a few American twists that are going to make it a little bit easier.

Provided by Chef John

Categories     Soups, Stews and Chili Recipes     Soup Recipes     Vegetable Soup Recipes     Onion Soup Recipes     French Onion Soup Recipes

Time 1h40m

Yield 6

Number Of Ingredients 12

¼ cup unsalted butter
6 large yellow onions, diced
3 tablespoons dry sherry
1 tablespoon sherry vinegar, or to taste
4 cups chicken broth
4 cups beef broth
3 sprigs fresh thyme
salt and ground black pepper to taste
6 slices French bread
¼ cup butter, melted
1 cup shredded extra-sharp Cheddar cheese
1 cup shredded Monterey Jack cheese

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 425 degrees F (220 degrees C).
  • Melt 1/4 cup butter in a large, oven-safe skillet on medium heat. Stir in onions until they are all coated in butter. Transfer skillet to the preheated oven and cook onions, stirring occasionally, until they are tender and well browned, about 1 hour.
  • Transfer skillet to the stovetop; cook and stir onions over medium heat until they start to brown and stick to the bottom of the pan, about 5 minutes. Pour sherry and vinegar into the pan, and bring to a boil while scraping browned bits of onion off the bottom of the pan with a wooden spoon.
  • Place caramelized onions in a large soup pot. Pour in chicken broth, beef broth, and thyme. Bring to a boil, skimming off any foam and fat that appear on top. Reduce heat to low and simmer for about an hour. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
  • Preheat the oven's broiler and set the oven rack about 6 inches from the heat source.
  • Generously brush French bread slices with melted butter. Place on a baking sheet and broil in the preheated oven until crisp and golden, about 5 minutes.
  • Ladle soup into heat-proof bowls, top each bowl with a piece of toasted bread, sprinkle with 2 to 3 tablespoons of Cheddar cheese and Monterey Jack cheese.
  • Broil bowls of soup under the broiler until cheese is golden and bubbly, 5 to 6 minutes.

Tips:

  • To ensure the chicken is cooked evenly, use a meat thermometer to check that the internal temperature has reached 165°F (74°C).
  • If you don't have a meat thermometer, you can also check if the chicken is cooked by piercing it with a fork or knife. The juices should run clear, not pink.
  • To make a quick and easy version of this recipe, use a store-bought rotisserie chicken instead of cooking your own.
  • For a vegetarian version of this recipe, omit the chicken and add more vegetables, such as carrots, celery, and potatoes.
  • To make this recipe in a slow cooker, combine all of the ingredients in the slow cooker and cook on low for 6-8 hours, or on high for 3-4 hours.

Conclusion:

Cheddar and onion soup chicken is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for a weeknight meal. It is also a great way to use up leftover chicken. This recipe is versatile and can be easily adapted to your own taste preferences. For example, you can add more vegetables, such as carrots, celery, and potatoes.
