CRISPY CHEDDAR CHICKEN WITH LOADED BACON MASHED POTATOES & ASPARAGUS



Crispy Cheddar Chicken with Loaded Bacon Mashed Potatoes & Asparagus image

Crispy chicken is always a recipe for success. Add melty cheddar and bold spices to the mix, and you've got a winning dinner. Once baked, the crust turns golden brown while the meat stays juicy and tender. But wait...there's more! The crunchy cutlets are served alongside tender roasted asparagus and cheesy, bacon-and-chive-studded mashed potatoes. Together, it's a meal as elegant as it is satisfying and delicious.

Time 40m

Number Of Ingredients 15

12 ounce Yukon Gold Potatoes
6 ounce Asparagus
¼ ounce Chives
¼ cup Panko Breadcrumbs
1 tablespoon Fry Seasoning
½ cup Cheddar Cheese
10 ounce Chicken Cutlets
2 tablespoon Mayonnaise
4 ounce Bacon
2 tablespoon Sour Cream
1 teaspoon Olive Oil
2 tablespoon Butter
1 teaspoon Vegetable Oil
Kosher Salt
Pepper

Steps:

  • • Adjust rack to top position (top and middle positions for 4 servings) and preheat oven to 425 degrees. Lightly oil a baking sheet. Wash and dry all produce. • Dice potatoes into ½-inch pieces. Trim and discard woody bottom ends from asparagus. Finely chop chives. • Place 1 TBSP butter (2 TBSP for 4) in a medium microwave-safe bowl; microwave until melted, 30 seconds. Stir in panko, half the Fry Seasoning, half the cheddar (you'll use the rest of the seasoning and cheese later), salt, and pepper.
  • • Pat chicken* dry with paper towels; season with remaining Fry Seasoning, salt, and pepper. Place on one side of prepared sheet (for 4 servings, spread out across entire sheet). • Evenly spread a thin layer of mayonnaise onto tops of chicken (you might not use all the mayo); mound with panko mixture, pressing to adhere (no need to coat the undersides). • Roast on top rack for 5 minutes (you'll add the asparagus then).
  • • While chicken roasts, place potatoes in a large pot with enough salted water to cover by 2 inches. Bring to a boil and cook until tender, 15-20 minutes. • Reserve ½ cup potato cooking liquid, then drain and return potatoes to pot. Keep covered off heat until ready to mash. • Meanwhile, place bacon* in a large, dry pan over medium-high heat. Cook, turning occasionally, until crispy, 6-10 minutes. • Turn off heat; transfer to a paper-towel-lined plate. Once bacon is cool enough to handle, roughly chop.
  • • Once chicken has roasted 5 minutes, remove sheet from oven. • Carefully toss asparagus on empty side with a drizzle of olive oil, salt, and pepper. (For 4 servings, add asparagus to a second sheet; roast on middle rack.) • Continue roasting until asparagus is tender and chicken is cooked through, 10-12 minutes more. TIP: For a deeply golden crust, broil chicken for the last 2-3 minutes.
  • • To pot with drained potatoes, add sour cream, remaining cheddar, and 1 TBSP butter (2 TBSP for 4 servings). Mash until smooth and creamy, adding splashes of reserved potato cooking liquid as needed. • Stir in half the bacon and half the chives. Season with salt and pepper.
  • • Divide chicken, potatoes, and asparagus between plates. Top potatoes with remaining bacon and remaining chives. Serve.

CRISPY CHEDDAR CHICKEN



Crispy Cheddar Chicken image

This chicken dish is quick and easy and delish! I do these a little differently than most. Can use Ritz crackers but I like the bread crumbs as I like to taste the cheddar cheese. I also like the texture of the bread crumbs better. I also do not use eggs to dip the chicken in. By the way, very kid friendly! By the way, I am...

Categories     Gravies

Time 40m

Number Of Ingredients 11

4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
3 c sharp cheddar cheese, shredded
3 c plain bread crumbs
1 c milk
salt & pepper
1 tsp garlic salt
1 Tbsp parsley
sauce *************************
1 can cream of chicken soup
2 Tbsp sour cream
2 Tbsp butter

Steps:

  • 1. Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Slice chicken breasts into three pieces. This will help your chicken cook quicker, and make it easy to serve the children.
  • 2. Gather three pans or dishes to fill with the milk, sharp cheddar, and breadcrumbs. Add the salt and pepper and garlic salt into the breadcrumbs and mix.
  • 3. Dip chicken pieces in the milk first, then roll in the cheese and then gently with your hands sprinkle the breadcrumbs all over the chicken, to cover.
  • 4. Line baking sheet with parchment paper and place chicken on parchment and sprinkle the tops of the chicken with parsley. Bake for 25-30 minutes or until golden and juice runs clear. (time depends on size of chicken pieces so watch closely)
  • 5. Prepare the sauce by mixing all the sauce ingredients in a small sauce pan until hot. I add a little pepper to the sauce. Spoon over the chicken. Serve with your choice of potatoes, pasta or rice for a side.

RITZY CHEDDAR CHICKEN BREASTS



Ritzy Cheddar Chicken Breasts image

They're as good as they sound: cheesy chicken cutlets coated with buttery Ritz crackers. Skipping the usual flour-egg-bread crumb dredge, this recipe relies instead on a flavorful base layer of tangy sour cream, which has lactic acid that tenderizes boneless, skinless chicken breasts beautifully. When it comes to breaded white meat, thin cutlets are ideal, which you can buy from the store or achieve by slicing thick breasts in half horizontally (no pounding necessary). They cook more evenly this way, staying tender throughout as they're quickly baked in a hot oven. Serve with something fresh - a big green salad, perhaps - to balance the wonderful richness of this nostalgic number.

Categories     dinner, weeknight, poultry, main course

Time 30m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 10

1 tablespoon olive oil, plus more for greasing wire rack
1/4 cup sour cream
1 large egg white
1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
Kosher salt (Diamond Crystal)
2 large boneless, skinless chicken breasts (about 1 1/2 pounds total)
1 sleeve Ritz crackers (about 100 grams)
2 ounces extra-sharp Cheddar cheese, coarsely grated (about 1 cup)
1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
1/2 teaspoon onion powder

Steps:

  • Position rack in the bottom third of the oven and heat oven to 450 degrees. Place an ovenproof wire rack over a sheet pan. Dab a folded-up paper towel with olive oil and rub it over the wire rack to grease it.
  • In a medium bowl, whisk together the sour cream, egg white and Dijon mustard until smooth. Season with salt. Lay the chicken flat on a cutting board and carve each breast in half horizontally so you end up with four thin cutlets. Add the chicken to the sour cream mixture, and using your hands, smear the sour cream all over the chicken.
  • In a large bowl, crush the Ritz crackers into coarse pieces with your fingers. Some crackers will turn to rubble while others turn to dust. Add the cheese, garlic powder, onion powder and olive oil. Season with 1/2 teaspoon salt and toss until evenly distributed. Holding one of the chicken cutlets by its thinner end, add to the bowl with the crumbs, and using your hands, pack the crumbs onto the chicken, pressing them in to create a thick coating. Transfer the breaded chicken to the rack in the sheet pan. Repeat with the remaining three cutlets.
  • Bake the cutlets until the outsides are crispy and the insides are no longer pink, 10 to 15 minutes. Let the chicken cool slightly so the coating can set, about 5 minutes, before transferring to plates and serving.
