LongHorn Steakhouse Parmesan Crusted Chicken: A Savory Delight

 

Ingredients

For the Chicken:

4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts

1 teaspoon salt

1/2 teaspoon black pepper

1 teaspoon garlic powder

1 teaspoon onion powder

1 tablespoon olive oil

For the Parmesan Crust:

1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese

1/2 cup panko bread crumbs

1/4 cup melted butter

1/4 cup mayonnaise

2 tablespoons fresh parsley, chopped

1 teaspoon lemon juice

1 teaspoon garlic powder

1 teaspoon onion powder

Directions

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).

Season the chicken breasts with salt, pepper, garlic powder, and onion powder.

Heat the olive oil in a large oven-safe skillet over medium-high heat. Add the chicken breasts and sear for 3-4 minutes on each side until golden brown.

Transfer the skillet to the preheated oven and bake for 20-25 minutes or until the chicken is cooked through (internal temperature of 165°F/74°C).

While the chicken is baking, prepare the Parmesan crust. In a medium bowl, combine the grated Parmesan cheese, panko bread crumbs, melted butter, mayonnaise, chopped parsley, lemon juice, garlic powder, and onion powder. Mix well until fully combined.

Remove the chicken from the oven and switch the oven to broil.

Spread the Parmesan crust mixture evenly over each chicken breast.

Place the skillet back in the oven under the broiler for 2-3 minutes, or until the topping is golden brown and crispy.

Remove from the oven and let the chicken rest for a few minutes before serving.

How to Prepare

Start by preheating your oven to 375°F (190°C). Season the chicken breasts generously with salt, pepper, garlic powder, and onion powder. Heat a tablespoon of olive oil in a large oven-safe skillet over medium-high heat. Once the oil is hot, add the chicken breasts, searing them for 3-4 minutes on each side until they develop a beautiful golden-brown crust. This step locks in the juices, ensuring the chicken remains tender.

Transfer the skillet to the oven and bake the chicken for about 20-25 minutes. Use a meat thermometer to check that the internal temperature reaches 165°F (74°C). While the chicken is baking, prepare the Parmesan crust. In a mixing bowl, combine grated Parmesan cheese, panko bread crumbs, melted butter, mayonnaise, chopped parsley, lemon juice, garlic powder, and onion powder. Mix until the ingredients are well incorporated.

Once the chicken is fully cooked, remove it from the oven and switch the oven to broil. Evenly spread the Parmesan crust mixture over each chicken breast. Place the skillet back in the oven under the broiler for about 2-3 minutes. Keep a close eye to ensure the crust doesn’t burn. The topping should turn golden brown and crispy. Remove the skillet from the oven and let the chicken rest for a few minutes before serving.

Simple French Crepes

 Ingredients

2 cup (250g) all-purpose flour*, sifted

1 pinch of salt

4 large eggs

1/4 cup (50g) melted butter

1 Tablespoon (15g) sugar (optional)

2 cups (500 ml) milk

2 Tablespoons oil for cooking

Instructions

Pour flour and salt in a large bowl and make a well in the center. Add the eggs, the melted butter, and the optional sugar if desired. Whisk vigorously starting from the center, and slowly start to pour in a little milk, mixing as you pour, to keep the batter smooth. Pour in the rest of the milk until it looks smooth. Cover the bowl and let sit for 2 hours.**

Heat a 15 cm/6-inch crepes pan and grease with oil using a piece of paper towel. Pour in a ladle of dough by tilting the pan in all directions to distribute the dough well. Heat until the surface is cooked, then flip the pancakes and cook the other surface for about a minute, or until the crepe becomes lightly blonde. Proceed the same with the remaining batter.

Stack the crepes onto a plate, and serve with your favorite topping (usually in France: butter and sugar, jam, or melted chocolate).
