Yield: 4 to 6 servings
Ingredients
- ½ cup finely crushed herb-seasoned stuffing mix
- 3 tablespoons grated Parmesan cheese
- 1 tablespoon dried parsley
- 1 teaspoon curry powder
- 1 tablespoon Italian-style seasoning
- 3 tablespoons butter
- 6 skinless, boneless chicken breasts halves
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
- In a shallow dish, combine the herb-seasoned stuffing mix, grated Parmesan cheese, dried parsley, curry powder, and Italian-style seasoning. This will be your breading mixture.
- Melt the butter in a separate shallow dish.
- Dip each chicken breast half into the melted butter, ensuring it is fully coated.
- Next, press the butter-coated chicken into the breading mixture, making sure it is evenly coated on both sides.
- Place the breaded chicken breasts in a single layer in a baking dish.
- Bake in the preheated oven for 40-45 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through and no longer pink inside.
- The chicken should reach an internal temperature of 165°F (74°C) for safe consumption.
Healthier Cooking Option (Optional)
For a healthier twist, consider using a healthier cooking method like air-frying instead of traditional baking. This can reduce the amount of butter used and create a crunchy texture with less fat.
