Chicken is a household favorite for midweek dinners. Infinitely versatile, healthy and affordable, Chicken is the hero of the dining table. If your usual chicken recipes feel drab, try one of our favorite breaded chicken recipes. Although “breaded” translates to “unhealthy” or “deep fried” on a restaurant menu, we have some healthy breaded chicken recipes that are so much easier than their take-away counterparts. For example, our Air Fryer Buttermilk Chicken Tenders and Crispy Oven-Fried Chicken Chops with Roasted Broccoli and Parmesan Cream Sauce offer two ways to cook crispy “fried” chicken without added fat (and mess). Our homemade chicken nuggets are the perfect on-the-go meal for picnics and road trips, and we’re sure the kids would love to open their lunch boxes to find our fried potato and green bean buttermilk chicken tenders. Would you like to freshen up your ho-hum “al Desko” lunch at work? Our oven-roasted chicken salad with buttermilk ranch dressing and Dixie chicken salad with grapes, honey, almonds, and broccoli are full of texture and flavor that you’ll want to repeat. Plus, our peanut-chicken scaloppine and pecan-crusted chicken and tortellini with herb butter sauce are pretty enough for a dinner party. See? Breaded chicken recipes go way beyond heavy fried chicken entrees. We have delicious breaded chicken recipes for every member of the family.
