ingredients
4 boneless skinless chicken breast halves
1 1/4 cup flour
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/8 teaspoon ground nutmeg
1/8 teaspoon ground black pepper
1 egg, lightly beaten
2/3 cup Swiss, Gruyere, or Emmenthaler cheese, grated
1/2 cup dry bread crumbs
1/4 cup butter
1 lemon, cut in wedges, for garnish
directions
Pound breasts lightly to flatten to a uniform 1/4-inch thick; set aside.
Sift together flour, salt, nutmeg, and pepper; set aside. Have beaten egg in a pie pan. Mix together cheese and bread crumbs; set aside.
Coat breast halves with seasoned flour, shaking off excess. Dip in egg, then in cheese-crumb mixture, coating well.
In a large, heavy-bottomed skillet over medium heat, melt butter. Add chicken and saute until golden brown on both sides (about 5 minutes per side). Drain on paper towels. Serve with lemon wedges.

It may look like a sad little package shoved in the back of your freezer, but frozen spinach actually has a lot of culinary uses (and some may surprise you).
Keeping a can of frozen orange juice concentrate in the freezer means you can make more than just orange juice. Try it in a variety of orange-flavored recipes.

I was a little nervous making this because I splurged and bought the gruyere cheese for it. Glad I did as this recipe was outstanding! And so easy! The crust on the chicken is so tasty too

Fabulous! The cheese/breadcrumb crust gets crispy and crunchy. Easy to prepare and quick to cook.
