A delightful twist on classic breaded chicken, featuring a crispy cheddar coating for a burst of flavor in every bite.
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
Preheating ensures even cooking and a crispy crust.
Place the shredded cheddar cheese in a food processor and pulse until it forms fine crumbs. Transfer to a plate.
Using a food processor helps achieve a uniform texture for the coating.
In a shallow dish, combine the flour and salt. Mix well.
Ensure the flour mixture is evenly combined for consistent coating.
In another bowl, whisk together the egg and water until smooth.
A smooth egg wash helps the coating adhere better to the chicken.
Coat each chicken breast in the flour mixture, then dip into the egg wash, and finally press into the cheddar crumbs to coat evenly.
Press the cheese crumbs firmly onto the chicken for a thicker crust.
Place the coated chicken breasts on a lightly greased baking sheet.
Use parchment paper for easier cleanup and to prevent sticking.
Bake in the preheated oven for 35-45 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through and the coating is golden brown.
Use a meat thermometer to ensure the chicken reaches an internal temperature of 165°F.
Serve the crispy cheddar chicken hot with your favorite sides and enjoy!
Garnish with fresh herbs like parsley for a pop of color and flavor.
