Breaded Chicken Fillets Recipe
The best part of this chicken is it's so versatile. Its great as it is but you can also make chicken parmesan, wraps or eat it sandwiched in between a soft bun.
I started making this chicken many years ago when my kids were little and loved chicken nuggets. I thought this would be a healthier option and an acceptable substitute for my very picky eaters. Fortunately, it was!
You will need to prepare this well before you want to eat it because the chicken breast fillets will need to be marinated.
My daughter, Nursel, loves this chicken and in our house we refer to it as Nursel's chicken. She enjoys this with french fries but it tastes just as yummy with mashed potatoes or steamed veggies.
