  • 0.25 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1 cup Good Life breadcrumbs
  • 1.12 tsp salt
  • 1.12 tsp ground black pepper
  • 1.12 tsp garlic powder

  • 2 tsp chicken powder
  • 4 oz pimiento (sliced)
  • 2 tsp parsley (chopped)
  • 1 cup all-purpose cream

Instructions

  1. Flatten the chicken breast by gently pounding it using a meat tenderizer tool (see notes below). Rub salt, ground black pepper, and garlic powder all over the chicken.

  2. Dredge the chicken in all-purpose flour. Dip in the beaten egg mixture, roll it over the Good Life Breadcrumbs making sure that it gets completely coated. Let it rest for 5 minutes.

  3. Heat oil in a pan. Deep fry the chicken until it turns golden brown. Remove the chicken from the pan and arrange on a serving plate. Set aside.

  4. Cook the side dish by melting 2 tablespoons of butter in a pan. Saute the corn for 2 minutes. Season with garlic powder, salt and ground black pepper. Set aside.

  5. Make the sauce by melting the butter in a saucepan. Sauté garlic, onion, and carrot for 2 minutes. Add the flour and stir until lumps form. Pour the milk. Stir until the sauce thickens. Season with chicken powder, salt, and ground black pepper. Add the all-purpose cream, pimiento, and parsley. Stir and cook for 30 seconds.

  6. Pour the sauce over the chicken. Serve with sauteed corn and rice. Share and enjoy.
