Chicken Benedict

This is so delicious I hate it when I get down to the last bite.
 
 
 
 
Fried Chicken Benedict

 

1# chicken breast

Hash browned potatoes

Fried bacon strips

2 Baked biscuits or toasted english muffins

2 eggs, beaten

1 c. cornflake crumbs

1 c. bread crumbs

Cheese of your choice, fried

Hollandaise sauce

1 chipotle pepper, minced

1 tsp chipotle sauce

1 roma tomato, sliced

 

Pound breasts to even thickness. Dip in egg wash. Mix crumbs together then coat chicken with crumbs.Deep fry until done and drain on paper toweling.

 
In skillet add some oil and fry hashed potatoes until done to your liking.

 
Make hollandaise sauce in double boiler. Keep top pan over hot water to keep sauce warm. Add chopped chipotle and sauce, stir.

 
Spray a skillet with non stick cooking spray. Over medium high heat add a few handfuls of shredded cheese. Let melt and fry on one side only.5

 
To assemble, split biscuit. Top with potatoes, bacon strips, cheese, a ladle of hollandaise, chicken breast, tomato slices and top with more hollandaise.

 
Fried or poached eggs are optional. I like it with the eggs and I also prefer chopped green olives sprinkled on top along with the tomato. It gives it a little extra tang.
