Moist and Crunchy Baked Chicken Breasts

downtonabbeycooks · February 3, 2022 ·

This recipe from Cook’s Kitchen is a quick and tasty recipe for baked chicken breasts that is a great dish to make weeknights. It is crunchy on the outside, moist in the middle.

To keep it fresh and crunchy, make your own bread crumbs from hearty white sandwich bread.

You could also make this chicken breasts recipe can also be pan-fried instead of baked by simply cooking the chicken in oil on the stovetop over medium to medium-high heat. This method also produced moist chicken with a crunchy brown crust.
