Provincial Chicken with Swiss




This was a great meal that is perfectly easy to throw together on a busy weeknight. Herbs de Provence is the star of this dish, bringing so much wonderful flavor to the chicken. Swiss cheese adds a smooth bite while the Panko breadcrumbs bring texture. All in all, this is a flavorful and easy meal that will appeal to most palates.

Ingredients
2 chicken breasts, pounded thin
1/2 cup AP flour
1 egg white
splash of skim milk
Aprox. 3/4 cup plain Panko breadcrumbs
aprox. 1-2 tsp Herbs de Provence
2 slices swiss cheese
salt
pepper
Directions
Preheat oven to 350 degrees and spray a baking dish with non stick spray. Lightly season chicken with salt and pepper. Using about 1/2 tsp. (or more) per chicken breast, rub herbs to provence into both sides of breasts and then dust with flour so the chicken is completely covered. In a small bowl, whisk together egg white and milk, then dredge chicken in the egg white mixture. Finally, coat chicken in Panko breadcrumbs so the chicken is completely coated. Place in baking dish. If desired, sprinkle a bit more herbs de provence over chicken. Cover dish with foil and bake for 45 minutes. Then, remove foil from dish, place 1 slice of Swiss Cheese over both breasts and bake for an additional 15 minutes, uncovered.

  2. Love the herbes de provence! I use mine with chicken tenders - I'll bet the swiss cheese really takes it over the top!

  3. wifeplzak - I just served it with a simple quinoa salad, but I'll bet any kind of potato would be great as well. I'm thinking roasted garlic potatoes would be fantastic (and probably what I'll do next time!)

  13. You actually make it seem so easy with your presentation
    but I find this topic to be really something that I think I would never understand.
    It seems too complex and extremely broad for me.
    I'm looking forward for your next post, I will try to get the hang of it!
