Ingredients

  • 4 boneless skinless chicken breasts, cut in half
  • 5 tsp Dijon mustard
  • 1/2 cup butter
  • 1 clove of garlic
  • 2 Tbsp fresh parsley minced
  • 5 Tbsp Parmesan cheese shredded
  • 3/4 cup Panko bread crumbs
  • 3/4 cup bread crumbs
  • 1/2 cup mayonnaise
  • 1/4 cup Dijon mustard

Instructions

  • Melt butter in a saucepan over low heat.
  • Add garlic. Simmer on low heat for 5 minutes.
  • Blend in 5 tsp mustard, stirring well.
  • Remove from heat and let cool enough to touch by not solidifying.
  • Whip vigorously until the mixture thickens.
  • Mix parsley, cheese, and bread crumbs together, blending well.
  • Dip chicken breast in butter mixture, coating all surfaces.
  • Next, dip the chicken in breading mixture, packing crumbs onto the chicken to coat well.
  • Place chicken in a single layer in a low pan.
  • Cover and refrigerate for a couple of hours to set breading (Ideal, but I have skipped this step).
  • Place chicken breasts in a sheet pan and bake at 350 F for 24-30 minutes.
  • While chicken bakes, stir together the mayonnaise and Dijon mustard until completely combined.
  • Chicken should be lightly browned and moist on the inside.
  • Optional: Top with shredded Parmesan.
  • Serve with dipping sauce.
