Ingredients
Scale
- 4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts, ready to absorb the delicious flavors
- 2 beaten eggs, acting as the ideal binder for a crispy coating
- 1 cup of crushed Ritz crackers (or your favorite butter crackers) for a crunchy, flavorful texture
- ½ cup butter, cut into small pieces, because butter isn’t just an ingredient here—it’s the star
- ½ teaspoon garlic salt, adding a savory kick
- Black pepper to taste, for that essential touch of spice
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 375°F, setting the stage for a tasty meal.
- Place a few butter pieces in a 9×13 baking pan, then pop it in the oven just long enough to melt the butter. Swirl it around to coat the entire pan with buttery goodness.
- In a bowl, mix the crushed crackers with garlic salt and black pepper to create a flavorful coating for the chicken.
- In a separate bowl, have the beaten eggs ready for dipping.
- Dip each chicken breast into the eggs, coating them well. Then roll them in the cracker mixture, pressing gently to ensure the crumbs stick evenly.
- Arrange the coated chicken breasts in the buttered pan, topping each with the remaining butter pieces for extra richness.
- Bake for 35-40 minutes until the chicken is fully cooked, with juices running clear and the coating golden brown.
