This chicken has serious flavor. It's breaded in panko, fried, and topped with a compound butter that melts even the taste buds.

Before You Cook

Cooking Guidelines

To ensure food safety, the FDA recommends the following as minimum internal cooking temperatures:

  • Steak and Pork 145° F (rest cooked meat, 3 minutes) |
  • Seafood 145° F |
  • Chicken 165° F |
  • Ground Beef 160° F |
  • Ground Turkey 165° F |
  • Ground Pork 160° F

Customize It Instructions

  • If using pork chops, pat dry. Cook in a large non-stick pan with 2 tsp. olive oil over medium heat until pork reaches minimum internal temperature, 3-5 minutes per side. Rest, 3 minutes. Pork thickness can vary; if you receive a thinner chop, we recommend checking for doneness sooner.

  1. 1

    Prepare the Ingredients

    Stem and mince parsley.

    Trim ends off green beans, if necessary.

    Mince garlic.

    Pat chicken dry.

  2. 2

    Make Butter and Prepare Chicken

    In a mixing bowl, combine softened butter, half the parsley (reserve remaining for breading), and half the garlic (to taste; reserve remaining for green beans). Form butter mixture into two evenly-sized disks. Set aside.

    On a separate cutting board, cover chicken with plastic wrap and pound with a heavy object to an even 1/3" thickness. A disposable gallon-size bag also works for pounding chicken, and leaves less mess!

    Unwrap chicken and season both sides with 1/4 tsp. salt and a pinch of pepper.

  3. 3

    Roast the Green Beans

    Place green beans on prepared baking sheet and toss with 1 tsp. olive oil, remaining garlic, 1/2 tsp. salt, and a pinch of pepper. Spread into a single layer.

    Roast in hot oven until green beans are tender but still crisp, 11-15 minutes.

    While green beans roast, continue recipe.

  4. 4

    Bread the Chicken

    Combine flour and 1/4 cup water in another mixing bowl until a thin batter forms.

    Combine panko and remaining parsley in another mixing bowl.

    Place a large non-stick pan over medium-high heat and add canola oil. Let heat, 5 minutes.

    While oil heats, dredge a chicken breast in flour batter, coating completely. Then place in panko, coating completely and pressing gently to adhere. Repeat with second chicken breast.

  5. 5

    Fry Chicken and Finish Dish

    Line a plate with a paper towel.

    Test oil temperature by adding a pinch of panko to it. It should sizzle gently. If it browns immediately, turn heat down and let oil cool. If it doesn't brown, increase heat.

    Carefully add chicken to hot oil. Flip every 3-5 minutes until golden-brown and chicken reaches a minimum internal temperature of 165 degrees, 10-14 minutes.

    Remove from burner. Transfer chicken to towel-lined plate. Season with 1/4 tsp. salt.

    Plate dish as pictured on front of card, topping chicken with butter. Bon appétit!
