Potato-crusted chicken is a simple and delicious second course made with slices of chicken breast wrapped in a golden crust of grated potatoes . In our recipe we cooked the chicken in a potato crust in a pan , but you can also cook it in the oven . Simply place the chicken slices on a baking tray lined with baking paper and cook at 180°C for about 30 minutes. A tasty and easy-to-prepare dish that both adults and children will love: serve it for a quick and original dinner, perhaps accompanied by a simple mixed salad.

To obtain a richer preparation, cut a pocket from each chicken breast, add a slice of mozzarella or stringy cheese and dip the chicken in flour, eggs and then grated potatoes, before frying everything in a pan until golden brown. .

Also try the chicken stew with potatoes , excellent for lunch or dinner for the whole family.
