Parmesan Crusted Chicken

One of my favorite restaurants is Noodles. My husband swears that I am addicted to pasta. Tonight I was craving their Parmesan crusted chicken so I went in search of a recipe and found this simple and tasty dish. It looked and tasted almost identical to theirs and I was pleased with the results. Even my son asked for more chicken. We will definitely be making this again.

2 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
2 egg whites
2 tsp cornstarch
juice of 1/2 lemon
1 c bread crumbs
1 Tblsp kosher salt (optional, depending on what you use for bread crumbs you may have enough salt already)
1 Tblsp parsley
1/4 tsp black pepper
1/3 c. shredded Parmesan cheese

Mix egg whites, cornstarch lemon juice and dip chicken in. Then mix crumbs, parsley, salt, pepper and Parmesan and dip chicken in that. Saute in olive oil until golden brown and crisp then transfer skillet to oven to roast at 450 for 8 more minutes.

Yield: 4 servings
