The chicken is so tender, moist, and juicy. One of the easiest, tastiest chicken breast recipes I have made. I love when a recipe only has a few ingredients but still delivers on taste. I am excited to be adding this to my recipe box on Sweet Little Bluebird, you’ll want to add it to your recipe box too.
Ingredients
- 4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
- 2 eggs, beaten
- 1 cup crushed Ritz crackers or similar butter crackers
- 1/2 cup butter, cut into pieces
- 1/2 teaspoon garlic salt
- pepper to taste
Directions
Preheat oven to 375 degrees F. Lightly spray a 9×13 baking dish with non-stick cooking spray.Place crushed crackers in a medium size shallow bowl, add garlic salt and pepper – mix.
Place eggs (beaten) in another separate medium-size shallow bowl. Dip one chicken breast at a time in the eggs coating well, then dredge in the cracker crumbs, coating well on all sides. Place chicken breasts side-by-side in baking dish. *Top chicken evenly with pieces of butter.
Bake on the middle rack of the oven for 40 to 45 minutes or until chicken is ready and internal temperature has reached a safe minimum 165 degrees F internal temperature.
Serve with your favorite veggies, rice, potatoes, salad, and more. Enjoy!
TIP
*The recipe calls for placing the butter around the chicken, but I opted to place the butter on top of the chicken – it turned out wonderful! Add your favorite poultry seasonings for extra flavor (garlic/onion powder and more).
