I fix these microwave-easy chicken breasts all the time and love the taste. âDorothy LaCombe, Hamburg, New York Ingredients:
5 tablespoons butter, softened, divided |
1/2 teaspoon minced chives |
1/4 teaspoon garlic powder |
1/4 teaspoon white pepper |
4 boneless skinless chicken breast halves (6 ounces each) |
1/3 cup cornflake crumbs |
1 tablespoon grated parmesan cheese |
1/2 teaspoon dried parsley flakes |
1/4 teaspoon paprika |
Directions:
1. In a small bowl, combine 3 tablespoons butter, chives, garlic powder and pepper; shape into four cubes. Cover and freeze until firm, about 10 minutes.
2. Meanwhile, flatten chicken breast halves to 1/4-in. thickness. Place a butter cube in the center of each. Fold long sides over butter; fold ends up and secure with a toothpick.
3. In a shallow bowl, combine the cornflakes, cheese, parsley and paprika. Melt remaining butter. Dip chicken into butter; coat evenly with cornflake mixture. Place seam side down in a microwave-safe dish.
4. Microwave, uncovered, on high for 5-6 minutes or until chicken juices run clear and a meat thermometer reads 170°. Remove toothpicks. Drizzle chicken with pan drippings if desired. Yield: 4 servings.
