Parmesan Chicken


6 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
1 cup flour
1 t. kosher salt
½ t. freshly ground pepper
2 large eggs
1 ¼ cups seasoned dry bread crumbs
½ cup freshly grated Parmesan cheese
¼ cup butter, melted
¼ cup olive oil

Slice chicken breasts into 4 or 5 strips. Mix butter and olive oil. Brush baking tray generously with butter and olive oil. Mix flour, salt and pepper. Beat eggs with 1 tablespoon of water. Mix bread crumbs and Parmesan cheese. Dip chicken strips into flour, then egg mixture and then bread crumbs. Place chicken on baking tray. When they are all coated, brush lightly with butter and olive oil. Bake at 350° for 45 minutes. Serve hot. Serves about 8.

I had a baugette that I wasn't going to use so I dried it in the oven, put it through my Bosch grater (like grating cheese) or you could put it in a food processor and pulse. I used that for my crumbs and added freshly ground dry Italian bread dipping seasoning. You can get it at specialty food shops.
