I realize this is not a new recipe. Everyone I know has a variation of it. But it is a staple chicken meal at my house.When all else fails, I know my kids will inhale this chicken.You can use pretty much any cracker, just omit and add spices. I have used cheez its and omitted the spices. Super kid friendly.
Cracker Chicken
2 eggs, beaten
1 cup crushed Ritz cracker crumbs
1/2 teaspoon garlic salt
ground black pepper to taste
4 skinless, boneless chicken breast halves
1/2 cup butter, cut into pieces
DIRECTIONS
Preheat oven to 375 degrees F.
Place eggs and cracker crumbs in two separate shallow bowls. Mix cracker crumbs with garlic salt and pepper. Dip chicken in the eggs, then dredge in the crumb mixture to coat.
Arrange coated chicken in a 9×13 inch baking dish. Place pieces of butter around the chicken.
Bake in the preheated oven for 40 minutes, or until chicken is no longer pink and juices run clear.
This looks delicious and I think the boys would love this too. Panko bread crumbs would also work great. Thank you so much!
So quick and easy! I’ve never made this but have seen some versions around. It sounds perfect for a quick weeknight meal – and I’m always on the lookout for those!
I don’t think I have ever made this but I’ve heard of it. I have a whole box of those Ritz Cracker Pretzels (Cracker one side and Pretzel the other). I’m going to try this next week.
Thanks for posting!
