Ingredients:
- 4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 2 large eggs, beaten
- 1 cup breadcrumbs
- Salt and pepper to taste
- 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese
- 4 cups arugula
- 1 fennel bulb, thinly sliced
- 1/4 cup extra virgin olive oil
- 2 tablespoons lemon juice
- 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
- 1 teaspoon honey
- 1 clove garlic, minced
Instructions:
Preheat oven to 375F 190C
Season chicken breasts with salt and pepper
Dredge each chicken breast in flour, then dip in beaten eggs, and finally coat with breadcrumbs mixed with Parmesan cheese
Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat
Cook chicken breasts until golden brown on both sides, about 3-4 minutes per side
