Yield 3

Number Of Ingredients 14

¾ cup grated Romano cheese
¼ cup bread crumbs
1 tablespoon granulated garlic
2 teaspoons ground cayenne pepper
2 teaspoons dried thyme

1 teaspoon salt
6 thin chicken cutlets
1 tablespoon olive oil
1 green bell pepper, diced

3 ounces shaved Romano cheese

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).

  • Bake chicken in the preheated oven until slightly golden, about 25 minutes. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 165 degrees F (74 degrees C).

Tips:

  • To ensure the chicken is evenly cooked, use a meat thermometer to check that the internal temperature reaches 165°F (74°C).
  • If you don't have bread crumbs, you can make your own by pulsing bread in a food processor until it resembles fine crumbs.
  • For a crispy crust, make sure the chicken is coated evenly in the bread crumb mixture before frying.
  • To prevent the chicken from sticking to the pan, use a non-stick skillet or spray the pan with cooking spray.
  • Serve the chicken with your favorite sides, such as mashed potatoes, roasted vegetables, or a simple salad.

Conclusion:

Crispy Chicken Romano is a classic Italian-American dish that is sure to please everyone at your table. The combination of crispy chicken, tangy lemon sauce, and melted cheese is simply irresistible. This dish is perfect for a weeknight dinner or a special occasion.
