Ingredients
- 4 large cloves garlic, crushed
- 1 tbsp parsley, chopped
- 100g Gold from Flora
- 4 skinless chicken breasts
- 1 tbsp Knorr Reduced Salt Chicken Granules
- 4 tbsp plain flour
- 100g breadcrumbs
- 2 tbsp Parmesan cheese, grated
- 2 eggs, beaten
- Vegetable oil, for frying
- 1 lemon, cut into wedges
Method
- Blend the garlic, parsley and Gold from Flora together.
- Use a sharp knife to cut a deep pocket inside the chicken breast-take care not to cut all the way through.
- Mix the Knorr Reduced Salt Granules with the flour to season and mix the breadcrumbs with the Parmesan cheese. Place the seasoned flour, breadcrumbs and beaten egg onto three plates.
- Place a tablespoon of the garlic and herb spread into the centre of the chicken breast and flatten it with your hands to seal.
- Dust in the seasoned flour, then in the egg mixture and coat with the breadcrumbs. Repeat the process to ensure a good coating to help prevent the garlic and herb spread from leaking out.
- Chill in the fridge for 1 hour.
- Heat a frying pan with vegetable oil to a depth of 2cm and add the chicken. Cook for 10 minutes on each side. Remove from the oil and drain on kitchen paper. Serve immediately with wedges of lemon.
- Tips: Perfect served with new potatoes and a selection of seasonal vegetables. Take care when cooking this dish. Never leave a hot frying pan unattended and be careful of being splattered with oil.
