Set up the egg and crumb bowls before heating the skillet. A thin, even coating sticks better when the chicken is flattened to the listed quarter-inch thickness.
Medical Marijuana Parmesan Chicken
Use the listed half cup of prepared cannabis breadcrumbs. Their cannabis quantity and strength are not specified; the cannabutter is a second infused ingredient. Neither browned crumbs nor clear juices prove chicken is cooked.
Ingredients
- 4 (4 ounce) boneless, skinless chicken breast halves
- 1/2 cup prepared seasoned cannabis breadcrumbs
- 1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese
- 1/2 teaspoon dried basil
- 1 egg
- 2 tablespoons cannabis butter
Instructions
- Have the cannabutter and prepared cannabis breadcrumbs ready. Flatten the chicken to an even ¼-inch thickness.
- Combine the prepared cannabis breadcrumbs, Parmesan cheese and dried basil in a shallow bowl.
- Beat the egg in another bowl.
- Dip each chicken cutlet into the egg, then coat with the crumb mixture.
- Heat the cannabutter in a large skillet over medium heat. Cook the chicken for about 3–5 minutes on each side, continuing until the center of each cutlet reaches 165°F (74°C) on a food thermometer. Clear juices alone do not establish doneness.
- Serve with a little Parmesan on top, if desired, and pasta as an optional accompaniment.
Prepare the coating first
Mix the half cup of prepared cannabis breadcrumbs with the Parmesan and basil. The formula does not give a separate amount of cannabis for making those crumbs, so do not add an assumed quantity. Use a measured prepared ingredient whose strength you understand.
Check beyond the crust
The directions list three to five minutes per side over medium heat. Treat that as a starting point: insert a thermometer into the center of each cutlet and continue until it reaches 165°F. Pasta is an optional serving accompaniment.
