Chicken Francese created by wicked cook 46

This recipe is so flavorful, very quick, and very easy! The chicken stays very juicy and tender. It's great on a bun as a chicken sandwich, or with a side at dinner time. Tastes great re-heated too!

4 -6 boneless skinless chicken breasts (pound to 1/4-inch-1/2-inch thickness)
³⁄₄ cup all-purpose flour
4 eggs
¹⁄₂ cup parmesan cheese
1 pinch salt
¹⁄₄ teaspoon pepper
1 tablespoon parsley (dried is fine)
3 tablespoons olive oil

directions

If needed, pound chicken breasts down to 1/4"-1/2" thickness to ensure even cooking.
Heat olive oil and butter in a skillet over medium-medium high heat.
Pour flour into a shallow dish (for coating chicken).
Beat eggs, Parmesan cheese, salt, pepper, and parsley together and place in another shallow dish (also for coating chicken).
Dip the chicken in the flour and allow the excess to fall off.
Dip the chicken in the egg mixture and allow the excess to run off.
Place chicken in the skillet and cook until golden brown, about 3-4 minutes per side.
Enjoy!

I made this today. Needed something quick, yet tasty. Unlike a previous reviewer, this in no way tasted like an "omelet surrounding chicken breast." I did marinate it overnight in teriyaki sauce and I forgot to coat the chicken in flour. Just used an egg and parmesan cheese. The chicken came out moist and tender. I served it with potato salad. I will definitely be making this again.
