Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C).
- Season the chicken breasts generously with salt and pepper on both sides.
- Set up a dredging station: In one shallow dish, place the flour. In a second shallow dish, beat the eggs. In a third shallow dish, add the breadcrumbs.
- Dredge each chicken breast in the flour, ensuring it is well-coated. Dip it into the beaten eggs, allowing excess to drip off, and then coat it with breadcrumbs, pressing gently to adhere.
- In a large skillet, heat the vegetable oil over medium heat. Once hot, carefully add the breaded chicken breasts.
- Fry the chicken for about 3-4 minutes on each side, or until they are golden brown and crispy.
- Transfer the chicken breasts to a baking dish and place them in the preheated oven. Bake for an additional 15-20 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through and reaches an internal temperature of 165°F (75°C).
- Remove from the oven and let rest for a few minutes. Serve the Suprema a La Maryland with lemon wedges on the side and garnish with parsley if desired.
Tips
- For a spicier version, add cayenne pepper or paprika to the flour mixture.
- Consider serving with a side of creamy coleslaw or steamed vegetables for a balanced meal.
