Simple Poultry Marinade & Crumb Coating
Description
This recipe combines a fragrant herb marinade with a classic crumb coating to elevate simple poultry dishes. The marinade, built on olive oil, garlic, basil, and oregano, penetrates the meat for deep savory flavor. The crumb coating process uses fresh bread crumbs, flour, and egg wash to create a textured, golden crust. Perfect for chicken breasts or cutlets, this method transforms bland proteins into restaurant-quality meals.Ingredients
Directions
-
In a small bowl, combine olive oil, coarsely chopped garlic, dried basil, dried oregano, 1 1/2 teaspoons salt, and freshly ground pepper to create the marinade.
-
Place poultry strips or breasts in a shallow dish or resealable bag and toss gently with the marinade mixture until evenly coated.
-
Cover and refrigerate the poultry to marinate for at least 1 hour.
-
Set up a breading station: place flour in one shallow dish, beaten eggs mixed with 2 teaspoons oil and 1/8 teaspoon salt in a second dish (or a 9-inch pie plate), and fresh bread crumbs in a third dish.
-
Remove poultry from marinade, allowing excess to drip off. Dredge each piece in flour, shaking off any excess.
-
Dip the floured poultry into the egg wash, ensuring it is fully coated, then shake off excess.
-
Place the poultry in the bread crumbs, tossing to cover completely and patting the crumbs firmly onto the surface to adhere.
-
Lay the crumbed poultry on a baking sheet covered with wax paper. Cover and refrigerate for 20 minutes or longer to allow the coating to set.
-
Heat clarified butter in a skillet over medium-high heat. Saut the crumbed poultry until golden brown and cooked through, turning carefully.
