LOCATION

Directions

  • 1 Between pieces of plastic wrap or waxed paper, place each chicken breast smooth side down; gently pound with flat side of meat mallet or rolling pin until about 1/4 inch thick.
  • 2 In shallow medium bowl or pie plate, mix bread crumbs, cheese, salt and pepper. Coat chicken with crumb mixture, pressing to coat well on both sides.
  • 3 In 12-inch nonstick skillet, heat 2 tablespoons of the oil over medium-high heat. Cook chicken in oil 6 to 10 minutes, turning once, until golden brown on outside and no longer pink in center. Remove chicken from skillet; cover to keep warm.
  • 4 To skillet, add remaining 1 tablespoon oil, 2 cups of the tomatoes, the onions and garlic; cook and stir 2 minutes. Stir in vinegar; cook 30 seconds longer. Remove from heat; stir in remaining 1 cup tomatoes and the oregano. Serve over chicken. Garnish with additional fresh oregano sprigs, if desired.

EXPERT TIPS

Expert Tips

Panko bread crumbs are coarser than regular bread crumbs. With a bit of pressing, the coating sticks to the chicken on its own, making this chicken very crunchy, yet light too.

If the chicken browns too quickly, simply turn down the heat a little bit.

Awesome flavor and easy to make! I used 2 cans of Rotel tomatoes, half an onion and minced garlic with a dash of baslamic vinegar and for the oil I used Coconut Oil. It was a little on the spicy side because of the Rotel but the white rice was good for taking off the burn of the Rotel. I didn't have Planko bread crumbs but I had Shake and Bake which I shook the Parmesean Cheese into to coat the chicken. After browning it in the saute pan with the Coconut Oil I put it in a dish covered with foil at 350 degrees while I finished the side dishes. The chicken was so moist it was falling apart. I think next time I will leave the chicken uncovered in the oven instead of using the foil, it would stay crispier. My husband loved the entire dinner and my teenager liked the chicken but not the rice (her rice was plain white rice). A nice Lambrusco red wine accompanied the dish for the adults and for dessert we had warm chocolate pudding made on the stove. Warm chocolate always settles your dinner nicely. Yummy!
