Ingredients:
4 (6-ounce) skinless, boneless chicken breast halves |
1 cup fresh french breadcrumbs |
3 tablespoons (3/4 ounce) shredded fresh parmesan cheese |
1 teaspoon dried oregano |
1/2 teaspoon garlic salt |
1/4 teaspoon black pepper |
1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice |
1 teaspoon cornstarch |
1 large egg white |
cooking spray |
1 teaspoon olive oil |
3 tablespoons minced shallots (about |
2 large) |
1 tablespoon all-purpose flour |
2/3 cup fat-free, less-sodium chicken broth |
1/3 cup dry white wine or fat-free, less-sodium chicken broth |
1 teaspoon fresh lemon juice |
2 teaspoons light stick butter |
2 teaspoons chopped fresh sage |
1/4 teaspoon salt |
Directions:
1. Preheat oven to 450°.
2. Place each chicken breast half between 2 sheets of heavy-duty plastic wrap; pound to 1/4-inch thickness using a meat mallet or rolling pin.
3. Combine breadcrumbs and next 4 ingredients in a shallow dish. Combine 1 tablespoon lemon juice, cornstarch, and egg white in another shallow dish. Stir well with a whisk.
4. Dip each chicken breast half in egg white mixture; dredge in breadcrumb mixture. Place chicken breast halves on a wire rack; let stand 10 minutes. Place a baking sheet in oven to heat while chicken stands.
5. Coat each chicken breast half well with cooking spray. Remove hot baking sheet from oven; coat with cooking spray. Place chicken breast halves on baking sheet, and bake at 450° for 20 to 25 minutes or until chicken is done.
6. While chicken bakes, heat oil in a small saucepan over medium-high heat. Add shallots; sauté 2 minutes or until tender. Sprinkle shallots with flour; stir well, and cook 1 minute. Add broth, wine, and 1 teaspoon lemon juice; bring to a boil. Reduce heat, and simmer 2 minutes or until thick, stirring occasionally. Add butter, stirring with a whisk until butter melts. Stir in chopped sage and salt. Serve immediately with chicken breast halves.
