Pinterest - Oh How I love thee!!

I am so obsessed with the website Pinterest!  If you aren't familiar -- It's a website with virtual boards that allow you to organize things together that you like and it allows you to share your likes with others.

Some of the boards I have include DIY projects, Cocks & Vols  (all things Carolina & Tennessee sports), Entertaining Ideas, and the best of all -- YUMMY FOODS!!

I have found so many recipes for dinner and desserts that I've been trying and majority of them have been very delicious!  One of my favorites I wanted to share.
The only thing I would do different -- add an egg to the milk to make the base coat thicker for the cheese to stick to the chicken -- otherwise -- it's so good!


Crispy Cheddar Chicken
Time: 15 minute prep + 35 minutes baking
Yield: 7 servings
Recipe from Jamie Cooks It Up!


Chicken:
4 large chicken breasts
2 sleeves Ritz crackers
1/4 t salt
1/8 t pepper
1/2 C milk
3 C cheddar cheese, grated
1 t dried parsley

Sauce:
1   14 ounce can cream of chicken soup
2 T sour cream
2 T butter
 


1. Cut each chicken breast into 3 large chunks. 
 

2. In a small food processor grind up the ritz crackers. 
 

3. Pour the milk, cheese and cracker crumbs into 3 separate small pans or bowls. Toss the 1/4 t salt and 1/8 t pepper into the cracker crumbs and stir the mixture around to combine.
 

4. Dip each piece of chicken into the milk...


then the cheese....


and finally the cracker crumbs. 


5. Spray a 9x13 pan with cooking spray and lay the chicken inside the pan. 


6. Sprinkle the dried parsley over the chicken. 
7. Cover the pan with tin foil and bake at 400 degrees for 35 minutes. Remove the tin foil, bake for an additional 10 minutes, or until the edges of the chicken are golden brown and crispy. 
8. Into a medium sized sauce pan combine the cream of chicken soup, sour cream and butter with a whisk. Stir it over medium high heat until the sauce is nice and hot. Serve over the chicken. 

Enjoy!





From here on out -- I plan on sharing some of my Pinnterest finds so you can enjoy as well!
