Breaded chicken with fresh basil

Becky

Alicante, Spain

Since my youngest son will be off for his first year at University at the end of this month, I'm in complete "indulgent mother" mode meal-wise. And while I make his favourite meals, I'm also putting them on Cookpad so that he can make them for himself while he is away. This is a family favourite I make regularly - I like to add fresh herbs to the breadcrumbs and since basil is in season right now, yesterday I added a bunch. You can also use dried herbs, spices (cumin works well and chilli flakes add a punch), or finely grated fresh ginger, cheese etc. Serve with a nice fresh salad or coleslaw.

    Test the oil by dropping a crumb in the pan. When it starts to fizz the oil is hot enough so add the fillets. Make sure they don't touch eachother. As long as you don't heat the oil up too much, you can make several batches like this

Born in the UK, I came to Spain after graduating many moons and meals ago, and I'm still here. For me cooking is a great way to unwind at the end of the day. My recipes tend to be quite quick and simple and (mostly!!) healthy too. Also quite seasonal - I prefer buying fresh local produce as much as possible. When I have time, I love spending a few hours cooking, filling my kitchen with delicious smells and great music and then hosting family and friends for long happy meals, laughs, conversation and chilled white wine. I'm a great believer in the power and value of home cooking for our own health, happiness and wellbeing and those of our loved ones and since I joined the Cookpad team 11 years ago I am committed to helping to make everyday cooking more fun for people all over the World.
