How to cook deliciously - Jamie Oliver's Crunchy Garlic Chicken

1. Stage

To prepare your chicken: Peel the garlic and zest the lemon.

2. Stage

Put your crackers into a food processor with the butter, garlic, parsley sprigs, lemon zest, and a pinch of salt and pepper. Whiz until the mixture is very fine, then pour these crumbs on to a plate.

3. Stage

Sprinkle the flour on to a second plate. Crack the egg into a small bowl and beat with a fork.

4. Stage

Lightly score the underside of the chicken breasts. Put a square of plastic wrap over each one and bash a few times with the bottom of a pan until the breasts flatten out a bit.

5. Stage

Dip the chicken into the flour until both sides are completely coated, then dip into the egg and finally into the flavored crumbs. Push the crumbs onto the chicken breasts so they stick — you want the meat to be totally coated.

6. Stage

To cook your chicken: You can either bake or fry the chicken. If baking, preheat your oven to its highest temperature (475 degrees), place your chicken on a sheet pan, and cook for 15 minutes.

7. Stage

If frying, put a frying pan on a medium heat, add a few good lugs of olive oil, and cook the chicken breasts for 4 to 5 minutes on each side, until cooked through, golden, and crisp.

8. Stage

To serve your chicken: Either serve the chicken breasts whole, or cut them into strips and pile them on a plate. Beautiful and simple served with a lemon wedge for squeezing over, and a tiny sprinkling of salt. Great with a lovely fresh salad or simply dressed veggies.
