Ingredients
2bonelessskinless chicken breast halves, 8-12 ounces each
4cupssour cream and onion flavored potato chipscrushed (about 1 cup)
2tablespoonsminced parsley
1egg
2teaspoonsWorcestershire sauce
2tablespoonsvegetable oil
Instructions
Butterfly the chicken breasts open to make 4 thinner portions.
Mix the potato chip crumbs with the parsley in a shallow bowl. Lightly whisk the egg in another shallow bowl, then whisk in the Worcestershire sauce.
Add the vegetable oil to a large skillet over medium-low heat. Dip each chicken piece into the egg mixture, then dip into the potato chip mixture, pressing the crumbs into the chicken if needed to form a crust. Add to the hot oil and cook for 6-10 minutes, turning once, until deep golden brown and the chicken is cooked through.
Notes
*Cook the chicken in batches, if needed, to not crowd the pan. Heat the oven to 250F and place a wire rack over a baking pan. Place the cooked chicken on the rack and place in the oven to keep warm while the second batch is cooking.adapted from Betty Crocker's Quick and Easy Cookbook
