Texas Roadhouse Herb Crusted Chicken Recipe
The Texas Roadhouse Herb Crusted Chicken uses dried dill, basil, oregano, garlic powder, and paprika to create a flavorful seasoning crust on boneless, skinless chicken breasts. The chicken is flattened for even cooking, pan-seared until the crust is crispy, then finished to a safe internal temperature. A fresh squeeze of lemon juice adds brightness, making a well-balanced entree with crunchy edges and tender meat inside.
Ingredients
- 4 chicken breast boneless skinless
- 2 Tablespoons dill dried
- 2 Tablespoons basil dried
- 2 Tablespoons oregano dried
- 2 Tablespoons garlic powder
- 1 Teaspoon paprika
- 2 teaspoons salt
- 2 teaspoons black pepper
- 2 Tablespoons extra virgin olive oil

Instructions
- Mix all the seasonings together in a small bowl.
- Place the chicken breasts in between plastic wrap and use a large wooden spoon or mallet to flatten the chicken breasts.
- Season both sides of the chicken breasts with the seasoning mixture.
- Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium high heat. Add the chicken breasts to the pan and cook for 5 minutes on each side until both sides of the chicken is browned and crispy.

- Remove from the heat. Top with the lemon juice. Let the chicken sit for 5 minutes. Then serve and enjoy!
Notes
