Garlic Lover's Chicken

By AzWench

The garlic and lemon are great together on this breaded chicken. I've served this several times for special-occasion dinners.

Ingredients

• 1/2 cup dry bread crumbs
• 1/3 cup grated Parmesan cheese
• 2 tablespoons minced fresh parsley
• 1/2 teaspoon salt, optional
• 1/8 teaspoon pepper
• 1/4 cup milk
• 6 boneless skinless chicken breast halves (1-1/2 pounds)
• 1 to 2 garlic cloves, minced

Preparation

Step 1

In a large resealable plastic bag, combine the bread crumbs, cheese, parsley, salt if desired and pepper. Place milk in a shallow bowl. Dip chicken in milk, then shake in the crumb mixture.

Place chicken in a greased 13-in. x 9-in. baking dish. Combine the butter, garlic and lemon juice; drizzle over the chicken. Sprinkle with paprika.

Bake, uncovered, at 350° for 25-30 minutes or until a meat thermometer reads 170°.
