#1,795: Stuffing Crusted Chicken

I made this super simple recipe for dinner tonight and my family really enjoyed it.  This is so super simple it would make a great weeknight dinner because by the time my side dish was ready, so was the chicken.  Allison enjoyed this chicken cut up into strips and eaten on a little roll.  The rest of the family ate this sans-sandwich.  This will definitely be going onto our dinner menu again.

1½ pounds boneless chicken breasts, cut into strips (I used chicken tenders)

2 eggs

6 oz seasoned stuffing mix 

Preheat oven to 425 degrees.  Trim fat from chicken breasts and slice into strips.  Beat 2 eggs in a shallow bowl, set aside.

In blender or food processor pulse stuffing mix until it's a fine crumb and transfer crumbs to a shallow bowl or plate.

Coat each chicken strip in the egg and then with the stuffing crumbs. Repeat until all chicken is coated.

Spray a cookie sheet with non-stick spray and place the chicken on the pan.  Bake for 15-20 minutes, flipping once.  

If you would prefer to pan fry your chicken: Fill skillet with oil about ½ inch deep. Heat oil over medium until it begins to ripple or until bubbles form immediately on the back of a wooden spoon inserted into the oil.  Fry for 4 minutes on each side.
