Crispy Butter Chicken
Delicious crispy butter chicken coated in Ritz crackers for a crunchy texture.
Equipment
- Oven Required to bake the chicken.
- Baking Dish 9x13 inch dish recommended.
Ingredients
Main Ingredients
- 2 large eggs, beaten
- 1 cup Ritz cracker crumbs
- 0.5 teaspoon garlic salt
- 0.25 teaspoon black pepper
- 4 each chicken breasts, boneless and skinless (6 ounces each)
- 0.5 cup butter, cut into pieces
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
- In two separate shallow bowls, place the beaten eggs in one and the Ritz cracker crumbs mixed with garlic salt and black pepper in the other.
- Dip each chicken breast in the beaten eggs, ensuring it’s completely coated. This will help the cracker crumbs stick nicely.
- Next, coat the chicken breasts evenly with the cracker mixture, pressing gently to ensure the crumbs adhere well.
- Arrange the coated chicken breasts in a 9x13 inch baking dish, giving them a little space apart for even cooking.
- Place the pieces of butter on top of the chicken breasts. This will melt and baste the chicken while it bakes, adding moisture and flavor.
- Bake in the preheated oven for 30-35 minutes or until the chicken is golden brown and cooked through. Check that the internal temperature reaches 165°F (75°C) for safe consumption.
Notes
For added flavor, consider mixing in some grated Parmesan cheese with the cracker crumbs.
