Breaded chicken breasts with Parmesan cheese

Easy as pie, quick, tasty and loved by grown ups and kids alike! Piece of warning; take my measurements with a grain of salt, I am not much of a measuring person. I tried to translate my recipes in numbers to the best of my ability, but the fun part is to try a pinch here and two there and see what works. If you do not like an ingredient, add less, if you like it add more. When it is essential to stick to an specific quantity of an ingredient, usually I mention it on the recipe.

Ingredients:

* 2 boneless chicken breasts

* 1 cup of bread crumbs

* 1 egg

* 2 tablespoons of fresh chopped parsley

* 2 tablespoons grated Parmesan cheese

* 2 cloves of garlic, finely chopped (or 1 teaspoon garlic powder if you have a   

  vampire gen)

* Pinch of salt

* Pinch of black pepper

* Olive oil

Sharpen that knife; remove the skin and fat of the chicken breasts and filet them, 1/4" more of less, thin, you do not want to cut bricks if you are going to bread them. Sprinkle the chicken with salt and pepper. In a flat plate, mix the bread crumbs, parsley, Parmesan cheese and really finely chopped garlic. Beat the egg in a separate bowl. Soak the pieces of chicken in the beaten egg, and then roll them in the bread crumbs mix, one coat only. In a pan, heat a generous quantity of olive oil; don't go crazy since you are not deep frying but bear in mind that the bread crumbs absorb a lot of oil. Sometimes, between batches of chicken I need to replenish the oil. The oil needs to be really hot; once is hot, set the heat to low and fry the chicken until the crust is gold and crunchy. The idea is to have enough heat to cook the inside but without burning the outside. By the way, people, use regular olive oil, not extra virgin olive oil. Extra virgin olive oil is used in Spain for bread and salads, not to burn the heck out of it. Do not believe all what TV hosts said, some of them cannot cook. Incidentally, neither do I, but I do not have a TV show, so there. 

Preparation time: about 30 minutes
