I sometimes add a little Parmesan cheese to the crumb mixture.
Cook Time: 20 minutes
Total Time: 20 minutes
Yield: Serves 4
Ingredients:
- 2 to 3 tablespoons prepared pesto
- 4 chicken breast halves
- 1 cup panko bread crumbs
- 1/2 cup fine dry bread crumbs
- 2 teaspoons paprika
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/8 teaspoon ground black pepper
Preparation:
Wash chicken breasts and pat dry. Gently pound the chicken between sheets of plastic wrap to even thickness.
In a food processor, pulse the panko and dry bread crumbs with the paprika, salt, and pepper, until well combined.
Rub each chicken breast with about 1 to 2 teaspoons of pesto, then press in the crumbs to thoroughly coat. Arrange the chicken in the baking pan and bake for about 20 minutes, or until chicken is cooked through.
Serves 4.
