Chicken Amandine
Chicken amandine is one of our favorite chicken recipes. The coating gets really crunchy, while the inside stays nice and juicy. You can use plain bread crumbs and add in your own seasonings, as well. Add rice or roasted potatoes and a green vegetable, and you’ve got a quick and simple weeknight meal.
1½ cups sliced almonds
