I made this yesterday for 5 people and everyone thought it was great! Somehow I forgot the milk for the egg wash and ended up using 4 eggs. Totally my fault but no matter, still worked out great. My wife is not a big chicken fan unless it's bbq'd and even she liked it. Sorta like breaded pork chops, so there you go!

We really enjoyed the chicken breasts prepared this way. It was awesome. The chicken was so moist, tender and flavorful. My dh & I both kept going mmmmummmm...not much was said until after we had finished eating. I fried the chicken in your Tahitian Vanilla oil, it worked really well in this delicious dish. It was so quick and easy to make, with wonderful results, we will be enjoying this often. It was sooo good, that I totally forgot to use the lemons, I can't wait to try it with them...Thanks so much for sharing. Made for ZWT7 for the Witchin Kitchen.
