4 boneless skinless chicken breasts
2 eggs
1 cup (250 mL) finely grated parmigiano-reggiano or parmesan cheese
1 cup (250 mL) panko (Japanese bread_crumbs) or fresh bread crumbs
4 tsp (20 mL) chopped fresh oregano (or 2 tsp/10 mL dried)
1 tsp (5 mL) salt
1/2 tsp (2 mL) each pepper and paprika
1/4 cup (50 mL) butter, melted
honey_mustard Sauce:
1/3 cup (75 mL) light mayonnaise
2 tbsp (25 mL) dijon mustard
1 tbsp (15 mL) liquid honey
Preparation:
Honey Mustard Sauce: In small bowl, stir together mayonnaise, Dijon and honey. (Make-ahead: Cover and refrigerate for up to 3 days.)
Between sheets of plastic wrap, pound chicken with flat side of meat pounder or with rolling pin until 1/2 inch (1 cm) thick. Cut lengthwise on diagonal into 4- x 1-1/2-inch (10 x 4 cm) strips. In bowl, whisk eggs. In shallow bowl, combine cheese, bread crumbs, oregano, salt, pepper and paprika.
One at a time, dip chicken strips into eggs, letting any excess drip back into bowl. Dredge in cheese mixture, coating generously and pressing to adhere. (Make-ahead: Refrigerate, layered between waxed paper, in airtight container for up to 24 hours. Or freeze for up to 2 weeks; bake frozen, adding 5 minutes to baking time.)
Arrange on greased baking sheets; drizzle with butter. Bake in 425°F (220°C) oven until golden, crispy and no longer pink inside, about 15 minutes. Serve with dipping sauce.
