Preparation

Step 1

Pound each chicken breast to even thickness. Holding knife horizontally, cut pocket in each breast; divide sage, butter and pepper among pockets.

Coat each breast in flour, pressing to seal pocket. In shallow dish, mix egg with water. Dip chicken into egg mixture; coat in bread crumbs.

Place, seam side down, in cast-iron skillet or 9-inch (2.5 L) square metal cake pan. Bake in 350°F (180°C) oven, turning once and basting with melted butter, until chicken is no longer pink inside, about 45 minutes. Transfer to plates; pour butter over top.
