This is a classic Italian style dish that is surprisingly light and easy to make. If you’re trying to stay in shape, you will love this high protein low carb recipe. Perfect for summertime, the combination of the fresh cool salad with the crispy golden brown chicken breast is magic. The chicken is mouthwatering when pan seared to perfection!

Keep in mind the boxed coating for seafood works great on chicken and pork also. Bon Appetit!

Pan Seared Chicken Breast with Arugula & Tomato
Author: 
Recipe type: Main
Prep time: 
Cook time: 
Total time: 
Serves: 4
 
Ingredients
  • 4 (6 oz) skinless, boneless chicken breasts
  • 2 cups McCormick Seafood Fry Mix
  • 2 eggs
  • 1 bunch fresh baby arugula roughly chopped
  • 3 ripe tomatoes roughly chopped
  • 4 large garlic cloves, chopped
  • 6 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 tablespoon balsamic vinegar
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • ½ teaspoon fresh ground pepper
  • Parmigiano Reggiano Cheese for topping
  • 1 lemon
Instructions
  1. Rinse and pat dry chicken breasts. Tenderize the cutlets with a meat pounder until thin and even. Beat two eggs in a bowl.
  2. Dip cutlets into egg wash and dredge in the coat mix.
  3. Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Shake off extra coating and pan fry the cutlets in hot oil until both sides are golden brown, 3-4 minutes per side. Squeeze a little bit of fresh lemon juice on the top of the second side of each cutlet. Remove from heat and set aside in a warm place.
  4. Place arugula, tomato and garlic into a bowl. Drizzle olive oil and balsamic vinegar, add salt and pepper. Toss gently so that the salad is evenly coated.
  5. Place the chicken breast on the center of a pre-warmed plate. Top it with a generous portion of the salad mixture.
  6. Cut remaining half lemon into thin round slices and garnish each plate.
  7. Optional topping - finish with a generous toppling of shaved Parmigianno Regianno cheese. Bon Appetit!
