- Chicken with Maple Cream Sauce -

When I made this recipe for my family, my sister said "This is like eating pancakes with chicken!" It does sort of have the feeling of breakfast with all the qualities of dinner. So for all of you people out there who don't like breakfast for dinner, try this, because this is about as close as you can get without being "breakfast for dinner"! 

 

Chicken with Maple Cream Sauce

Ingredients:

1 c. Heavy Cream

1 1/2 T. Maple Syrup 

6 Chicken Breasts

3 eggs

1 c. Flour

1 tsp. Salt

1 tsp. Pepper

1 1/2 c. Panko Breadcrumbs

Olive Oil

2 strips cooked bacon, crumbled 

Directions:

Over medium/low heat, whisk together heavy cream and maple syrup. Let sit at a simmer and reduce to about half of what it was, whisking occasionally.

Meanwhile, while that is reducing, pound out your chicken breast till about 1/4 to a 1/2 inch thick. Whisk egg together in a bowl. Mix flour, salt, and pepper together on a plate. Put breadcrumbs on a separate plate. Coat the bottom of a large pan with olive oil and heat on medium heath. Coat each chicken breast in the egg, then in the flour, then in the egg again, and lastly in the the breadcrumbs. Once the oil is hot, put in the chicken, letting cook for about 3-5 minutes on one side, and then 3-5 minutes on the other. When the chicken is cooked all the way through, remove from pan and arrange on a plate. Pour the maple cream sauce over it and sprinkle with the crumbled bacon. 

Enjoy!
