Parmesan Chicken Tenderloins

serves 4

1 lb chicken breasts or tenderloins
2 eggs
1 cup grated Parmesan cheese
dried spices to taste (basil, oregano, rosemary, tarragon, parsley...)
salt & pepper to taste
2 tbsp butter and oil
1 clove garlic, sliced or chopped
8 oz mushrooms, sliced
1/2 cup white wine

Brown mushrooms, if desired. This can be done while preparing chicken.

Lightly beat eggs. Mix Parmesan cheese and spices, salt, and pepper. Dry chicken pieces and dip into egg batter and Parmesan coating. Heat butter and oil in a pan until butter is melted and foam subsides. Add garlic and cook for 1 minute. Add chicken and cook until golden brown on all sides. Deglaze pan with wine and add mushrooms. Cook until chicken is done, but do not overcook.

It's almost too simple! But oh so good.
