I did a typical flour/wash/cornmeal coating with the chicken breast. Then I add a generous amount of olive oil to a pan, and place the pan of oil in a preheated oven(400). I let the oil heat up for about 3 or 4 minutes, then take it out and add the chicken so it starts to fry/sizzle. Then, I put it back in the oven. Depending on the size of the breasts I will flip them when the bottoms are nice and brown and finish them off. Usually takes about 30-40 minutes...Cornmeal can make a pretty hard crust, so I let it sit for a few minutes to let them soften up some.

Last night I used straight 10% coffee cream because we were almost out of milk, and fine cornmeal. I did a double breading, which means I put it back in the milk and cornmeal again, so the crust was pretty thick. I also seasoned the cornmeal with salt, and some bbq rub that I had done up in a bottle a while back. You could use whatever you want..

This chicken can be fairly dry if you leave it in too long. I like to serve mine with some kind of pickle or sauce. Last night I used a jarred garden antipasa, and some hot pickled eggplant to help it slide down better.
