Brandy Chicken

Ingredients

  • 4 skinless, boneless chicken breast halves
  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1 egg, beaten with water
  • 1 cup bread crumbs
  • 3 tablespoons vegetable oil
  • ¼ cup grated Parmesan cheese
  • salt and ground black pepper to taste
  • ⅓ cup brandy
  • 2 cups milk

Directions

  • Preheat an oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C).
  • Gently press the chicken breasts into the flour to coat and shake off the excess flour. Dip into the beaten egg, then press into bread crumbs. Gently toss between your hands so any bread crumbs that haven’t stuck can fall away. Place the breaded chicken onto a plate while breading the rest; do not stack.
  • Heat the oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Cook the breaded chicken breasts on both sides in the hot oil until evenly browned; transfer to a large baking dish. Sprinkle Parmesan cheese over the chicken and season with salt and pepper. Pour the brandy and milk over the chicken.
  • Bake in the preheated oven until the milk is bubbly and browned around the edges, about 1 hour.
