Call it lemon-butter crispy chicken if you like. It is basically that.
Suitable for a light Sunday lunch serving for those that are keto-dieting, or even a satisfying light dinner, this chicken recipe will leave your tastebuds melting with savoury awesomeness and crispy crunchiness.
It pairs perfectly with a fresh lettuce and mango salad dressed with a classic French dressing. This is a meal where the tanginess in the lemon-butter sauce meets a combination of mild spiciness from the chili flake toppings and seasoning in the breadcrumbs that coat the chicken breast.
The slightly ripened mangoes in the side salad bring off the tropical sweet, soft and fruity taste that balance off the rather tangy but flavourful chicken breast, giving your taste buds a lovely melting sensation.
One cut into the crispy chicken breast reveals a moist and tender inside giving you an easy bite. While this crispy chicken recipe can be oven-baked, it will not come off as golden brown and flavourful as when fried in shallow olive oil.
The dish is finished off with a moderate shredding and topping of Parmesan cheese – which has a lower fat content and is a great source of calcium, sodium and other nutrients.
Latifa’s Kitchen UG, an online home-cooking and recipe-sharing business, has provided the full recipe for those interested in home cooking and offering their family a restaurant-worthy meal – a bit like KFC made at home.
