What Temperature Do You Cook Chicken To
A meat or instant-read thermometer is your best bet for determining the temperature of your chicken, and if youre cooking a whole bird, it should be inserted into the thickest part of the thigh but not touching bone. 165 degrees Fahrenheit is the safe internal temperature for both the white meat and dark meat.

Skinless Boneless Chicken Breasts
For this recipe, we use breaded, juicy chicken breasts. Crispy and golden on the outside tender on the inside lightly simmered in a creamy sauce with so much lemon/garlic/parmesan flavour. The combination of your dreams!
Serve over anything: pasta, rice, zucchini noodles, steamed vegetables, or anything else you can think of. The light flouring including the parmesan cheese changed this Piccata inspired recipe from amazing into something else. Something impressive with double the parmesan hit.
How To Make Creamy Lemon Parmesan Chicken
- With parmesan cheese, especially in this recipe, I use fresh and finely grated.
- You can always grate your own on the smaller holes on a box grater, or buy it ready to use like this, and you will pretty much put it on everything. For this recipe, DO NOT use the parmesan out of a container. The flavour is completely different and too strong for this chicken.
- Piccata normally calls for a lot of butter and oil, but in this recipe I used half the oil and only a quarter of the butter.
Inspired by a classic chicken piccata with a touch of cream!
A Creamy Lemon Parmesan Chicken Piccata to impress yourself, more than anyone else.
