Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 8

Ingredients

2 tablespoons dijon mustard
1/2 teaspoon thyme leaves, chopped
Kosher salt
1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper
4 boneless, skinless chicken breast halves (about 8 ounces each)
3/4 cup freshly grated parmesan cheese
3/4 cup panko or dried coarse baguette breadcrumbs
Cooking spray

Steps:

Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F. Mix the mustard, thyme, 1/2 teaspoon salt and the cayenne in a medium bowl. Add the chicken breasts and turn to coat completely; set aside. In a medium shallow bowl, combine the parmesan and panko. Dredge the chicken pieces in the panko mixture, coating evenly and heavily, and pressing the coating into the meat. Put the chicken on a rack set over a baking sheet, spray with a quick burst of cooking spray and put the sheet in the middle of the oven. Bake until the chicken is golden and cooked through, 15 to 20 minutes. Let rest 5 minutes before cutting or serving.

Categories Steak

Time 20m

Yield 2 steaks, 2 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 4

Ingredients

2 steaks, fresh and never frozen (1-inch thick, any kind except prime rib)
2 -4 tablespoons butter (not margarine)
1 lemon, juice of
Lawry's Seasoned Salt

Steps:

Take the steaks out of the fridge, and allow to come to room temperature.
Heat a large nonstick skillet (you can even use a cast iron skillet) on high heat until very hot.
Rub both sides of the steaks lightly with the lawry's seasoning.
Add 1/2 the butter and 1/2 the lemon juice to the hot skillet, next add one steak in the center of the skillet.
Cook 2-4 minutes on each side (depending on the thickness and how you like your steak done) with a lid on, and make sure the kitchen is well ventilated because this could get smoky. Do not poke holes in steak to test for doneness, as this will dry the meat out.
Once steak is cooked, repeat with other steak, and let both steaks sit for 2-3 minutes to allow juices to distribute throughout.
When ready to serve, you can add additional butter, lemon juice and seasoning to your liking.
