Pollo embanado (breaded chicken)
>> Tuesday, March 9, 2010
I will be heading down to Puerto Rico next week with a group of friends and have spent the evening finalizing our plans. Getting in the spirit, I pulled out my Puerto Rican Cookery cookbook to find a little recipe for dinner. I didn't have much to work with in the house but came across pollo embanado, which is a delicious breaded chicken. All you need for this quick little meal is:
Chicken breasts
Bread crumbs
2 eggs
Plain white rice
Green peas
1 teaspoon olive oil
Salt
Fresh cracked pepper
Paprika
Pre-heat oven to 400 degrees. In a shallow dish, coat the chicken thoroughly with bread crumbs. In a seperate bowl, crack your eggs and add a pinch of salt and mix. Dip your bread crumb coated chicken in the egg and place in greased baking dish. Crack with a bit of pepper and pop in the oven for 40 minutes.
(About 20 minutes later) Prepare the rice according to package directions. Spice it up with a bit of salt, pepper and paprika then skip the butter later. Throw some peas on to cook when the rice is nearly done and you will have a complete meal. Plate all the food and enjoy!!
