Step-by-Step Instructions
1
Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C) and prepare a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. In a medium bowl, mix together the flour, garlic powder, salt, and black pepper.
2
In a separate bowl, whisk together the eggs and lemon juice. In another bowl, mix together the breadcrumbs and a pinch of salt.
3
To assemble the chicken, lay a chicken breast flat and make a horizontal incision in the center to create a pocket. Stuff the chicken with a tablespoon of butter, a sprinkle of parsley, and a sprinkle of dill.
4
Dip the stuffed chicken in the flour mixture, shaking off excess, then in the egg mixture, making sure to coat it evenly, and finally in the breadcrumb mixture, pressing the crumbs gently onto the chicken to adhere.
5
Heat about 1/2 inch (1 cm) of olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. When the oil is hot, add the breaded chicken and cook until golden brown on both sides, about 5-7 minutes per side.
6
Transfer the chicken to the prepared baking sheet and bake in the preheated oven for about 20-25 minutes, or until cooked through.
