Lemon Lime Encrusted Chicken Breast Recipe


Lemon Lime Encrusted Chicken Breast Recipe
Easy spin on a shake and bake type meal. I served this with a tabbouleh salad and served the chicken atop a bed of baby greens with a low-fat Italian dressing. Adjust amounts to personal tastes - and enjoy!

Ingredients
  • 6 chicken breasts
  • 2 fresh lemons
  • 2 fresh limes
  • 2 cups plain breadcrumbs
  • 1/2 cup lemon juice (for marinating does not have to be fresh)
  • 1/4 honey
  • salt + pepper to taste
  • 1/1/2 cup buttermilk

Directions
  1. Marinate chicken for 1 hr. in 1/2 cup lemon juice, buttermilk, salt, and pepper.
  2. Zest the lemons, and limes and add to breadcrumbs and add more salt and pepper ( I put it all in one of those shake'n'bake bags)
  3. In a shallow dish combine honey and the fresh lemon and lime juices (here is a good time to test how sweet/sour you want your chicken to be)
  4. Remove the chicken from the marinade and dip into the juice mixture
  5. Place chicken in the bag and shake (1 or 2 at a time works best)
  6. Place breadcrumb covered chicken on a raised baking pan and cook for 40min in a 350 degree oven.
  7. For Extra crispy chicken repeat the dipping steps once more
  8. You could also substitute breadcrumbs for Panko (Japanese breadcrumb)
