1/4 cup oil, divided
Make It!
MIX mayo and garlic in pie plate; mix cracker crumbs and parsley in second pie plate.
DIP chicken in mayo mixture, then in crumb mixture, turning to evenly coat both sides of each breast.

Kraft Kitchens Tips
Substitute
Substitute pork loin cutlets for the chicken breast halves.
Fish Milanese
Prepare as directed, substituting mild white fish fillets, such as catfish or tilapia, for the chicken breasts. Do not pound fish fillets to flatten and reduce the cooking time to 3 min. on each side or until fish flakes easily with fork.
Serving Suggestion
Serve with a steamed green vegetable, such as broccoli, and glass of fat free milk.

I thought this recipe was really flavorful. I didnt use parsley because I had none, and used italian bread crumbs instead of crushed Ritz crackers but it tasted just as good to me. I have been searching for a way to get breading to stick to chicken and I think the method they use here is the key. The mayo gives flavor and makes the breadcrumbs stick, not falling off soggily as you try to cut it. I served it with green beans and a biscuit.
