Recipe Summary Fried Chicken Dinner Salad

This is a quick dinner salad. I prefer mine with a honey mustard dressing and my husband likes his with ranch dressing. Use the dressing of your choice.

Ingredients | Xmas Dinner Ideas

1 egg, beaten

1 cup Italian-seasoned bread crumbs (such as Progresso®)

¼ cup grated Parmesan cheese

2 skinless, boneless chicken breasts

¼ teaspoon Cajun seasoning (such as Tony Chachere's®)

1 cup olive oil

3 cups chopped lettuce

1 tomato, cut into wedges

2 carrots, grated

2 hard-boiled eggs, halved

6 tablespoons ranch dressing

Directions

Beat egg in a shallow dish.

Mix bread crumbs and Parmesan cheese together in a shallow dish.

Season chicken with Cajun seasoning. Dip chicken into beaten egg and dredge in bread crumb mixture, pressing lightly to coat evenly.

Heat olive oil in a deep skillet over medium-high heat. Cook breaded chicken in the hot oil until golden brown, about 10 minutes per side. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 165 degrees F (74 degrees C). Drain chicken on paper towels. Slice into strips.

Divide lettuce, tomato, carrots, and hard-boiled eggs between 2 large pasta bowls. Top with sliced chicken; drizzle salad dressing on top.

We have determined the nutritional value of oil for frying based on a retention value of 10% after cooking. Amount will vary depending on cooking time and temperature, ingredient density, and specific type of oil used.
