I am back to blogging. This past week we have had Mike’s side of the family visiting from Florida, Wisconsin, Chicago, and St. Paul. Needless to say, we had a full house, but I loved it. There was a lot of game playing, food, and laughter during their visit. Now that they are gone the house is too quiet.

I love easy meals and this crispy Parmesan chicken fits the category. It is super simple to make and is great for adults as well as kids.

It goes well with a side salad for a light dinner idea or serve it with your favorite dipping sauce with a side of potatoes or rice.

How to make crispy Parmesan chicken:

Cut 2 chicken breast in half the lengthwise. Set up three bowls. Add the flour to the first bowl, beat the egg with water in the second bowl, and add the panko crumbs, Parmesan cheese, and finely chopped basil.

First, dredge the chicken in the flour, shake off any excess flour. The second step, dip the chicken in the egg.  Third coat the chicken with the Parmesan panko mixture.

Fry the chicken in a skillet with olive oil that is heated over medium heat until it is browned and no longer pink in the center.  Enjoy!
