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 small bowl, beat egg product and 2 tablespoons lemon juice with fork or wire whisk. In 1-gallon resealable food-storage plastic bag, mix Bisquick mix, paprika and sesame seed.
3 Dip chicken into egg mixture, then place in mixture in bag. Shake until chicken breasts are well coated.

This recipe seemed to have a few extra steps, but it was sure worth it. It's now on the list of our favorites, and I need to buy a mallet to pound that chicken properly!

My family really enjoys this recipe. I reduce the sugar in the sauce to 2 Tbs because we found it very sweet. We serve it with white rice. Very good and very easy - but beware, it comes together very quickly.

I don't like lemon flavor so I made this with lime instead and it was so good!!!! I followed the recipe exactly except for the lime instead of lemon. It's a keeper!
