Week 2 :: Crispy Parmesan Garlic Chicken + Zucchini

INGREDIENTS:
-2 chicken breasts
-8 tablespoons butter
-1/2 cup Italian style breadcrumbs
-1/2 cup parmesan cheese
-1/4 cup flour
-2 medium zucchini
-2 garlic cloves

INSTRUCTIONS:
1. In a large skillet over medium heat, melt 2 Tablespoons butter.

To make the chicken: Melt remaining 4 tablespoons of butter in a shallow dish. In another shallow dish combine bread crumbs, parmesan cheese, and flour. Dip the chicken in the butter and then coat in the bread crumb mixture and place in skillet.

2. Cook on each side for about 3-4 minutes until the outside is crispy and the chicken is cooked throughout. Set aside on plate.

3. Add 2 Tablespoons of butter back to the skillet and saute the minced garlic for a minute. Add the zucchini to the skillet and saute until tender. Salt and pepper to taste and add some 1 Tablespoon parmesan. Add the chicken back to the skillet and heat for a minute or so. Serve immediately.

RATING = 5/5
"NOTES FOR NEXT TIME" = I didn't have garlic cloves, so I used minced garlic from a jar. Seemed to do the trick! Might try the cloves next time, though, to see if it changes flavor. Also, the breadcrumbs fell off a lot because I flipped a ton. Coat more + Flip less!
