There is nothing that is more tasty than a perfectly butter fried piece of chicken and covering that in Parmesan? Even better! Crispy Parmesan Chicken is such a versatile recipe that pairs well with nearly every vegetable and thrown on rice or pasta makes it a meal that will keep your family satisfied for hours. I love to make this fried up on the stove in a cast iron pan, but you can easily do this in the oven as well with just a few changes.
PRO TIP: Every time I am working with raw chicken, I honestly get grossed out. We all know how sick it can make someone to be exposed to what it leaves behind. I love these Kitchen Gizmos– its a cutting board that takes away the worry! Standard cutting boards get scratches which become a breeding ground for bacteria. This cutting board is extremely scratch-resistant, preventing any bacteria from building up, has two sides, and a juice catcher so your defrosted chicken doesn’t leak to the counter.
*You can get rid of a whopping 54% of bacteria just by washing it with cold water.
*To sterilize up to 99.6% just pour boiling water over the board.
*Big working surface 15″x11.75″
*Heat-resistant of up to 300° Fahrenheit
*FDA Approved, BPA free, Dishwasher Safe
