RITZY PARMESAN BAKED CHICKEN
This was a hit with my family. I hope you'll enjoy it, too. You can also use light mayonnaise with success as well. I use small chicken breasts or butterfly large chicken breasts and split them in half so the chicken is not too thick to bake. I usually double the recipe then because my family always likes extra.

Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 350°F and butter a 9x13-inch baking dish.
- Combine the Ritz crackers, Parmesan and pepper in the bowl of a food processor. Process until the mixture forms fines crumbs, about 20 seconds.
- Place the flour in a large bowl for dipping. Beat the eggs with the milk in separate large bowl until frothy. Place half of the Ritz cracker and Parmesan mixture in a third bowl for dipping.
- Working with one breast at a time, roll in the flour making sure it is thoroughly coated. Dip in the egg and turn until coated. Transfer to the Ritz cracker crumb bowl and turn until the chicken is completely coated. Transfer to a plate or platter. (Can be done several hours in advance at this point. Keep refrigerated until ready to proceed).
- Melt the butter with the oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the Ritz cracker-coated chicken and cook until lightly browned, 3 to 4 minutes per side.
- Spread enough of the marinara sauce to thickly coat the bottom of the baking dish. Arrange the chicken on top of the sauce. Spoon the rest of the sauce over each breast and top with the mozzarella cheese and the remaining Ritz cracker and Parmesan mixture. Bake until bubbly and browned, 15 to 20 minutes.

RITZY CHEDDAR CHICKEN BREASTS
They're as good as they sound: cheesy chicken cutlets coated with buttery Ritz crackers. Skipping the usual flour-egg-bread crumb dredge, this recipe relies instead on a flavorful base layer of tangy sour cream, which has lactic acid that tenderizes boneless, skinless chicken breasts beautifully. When it comes to breaded white meat, thin cutlets are ideal, which you can buy from the store or achieve by slicing thick breasts in half horizontally (no pounding necessary). They cook more evenly this way, staying tender throughout as they're quickly baked in a hot oven. Serve with something fresh - a big green salad, perhaps - to balance the wonderful richness of this nostalgic number.

Steps:
- Position rack in the bottom third of the oven and heat oven to 450 degrees. Place an ovenproof wire rack over a sheet pan. Dab a folded-up paper towel with olive oil and rub it over the wire rack to grease it.
- In a medium bowl, whisk together the sour cream, egg white and Dijon mustard until smooth. Season with salt. Lay the chicken flat on a cutting board and carve each breast in half horizontally so you end up with four thin cutlets. Add the chicken to the sour cream mixture, and using your hands, smear the sour cream all over the chicken.
- In a large bowl, crush the Ritz crackers into coarse pieces with your fingers. Some crackers will turn to rubble while others turn to dust. Add the cheese, garlic powder, onion powder and olive oil. Season with 1/2 teaspoon salt and toss until evenly distributed. Holding one of the chicken cutlets by its thinner end, add to the bowl with the crumbs, and using your hands, pack the crumbs onto the chicken, pressing them in to create a thick coating. Transfer the breaded chicken to the rack in the sheet pan. Repeat with the remaining three cutlets.
- Bake the cutlets until the outsides are crispy and the insides are no longer pink, 10 to 15 minutes. Let the chicken cool slightly so the coating can set, about 5 minutes, before transferring to plates and serving.

Tips:
- Use high-quality ingredients: Fresh, flavorful ingredients will make a big difference in the taste of your dish. Use the best Parmesan cheese you can find, and make sure your chicken is fresh and free of any blemishes.
- Season your chicken generously: Don't be afraid to season your chicken with plenty of salt and pepper. This will help to enhance the flavor of the meat and make it more flavorful.
- Don't overcrowd the baking dish: Make sure there is enough space between the chicken pieces so that they can cook evenly. If the chicken is overcrowded, it will steam instead of roasting and will not be as crispy.
- Bake the chicken until it is golden brown and cooked through: The chicken is done cooking when it reaches an internal temperature of 165 degrees Fahrenheit. Use a meat thermometer to check the temperature of the chicken before removing it from the oven.
- Garnish the chicken with fresh herbs before serving: Fresh herbs, such as parsley or basil, will add a pop of color and flavor to your dish.
