Spicy Crispy Chicken

This dish is a great way to make chicken less boring.  Here I served it with pineapple salsa.  Enjoy!

Ingredients:
4 chicken breasts
juice from one lemon
2 tablespoons pineapple juice
2 tablespoons paprika
4 garlic cloves
2 tablespoons olive oil
pinch of cayenne pepper
2 tablespoons parsley
2 cups flour
salt
pepper
Directions:
Thinnly slice chicken breasts into 1/4 inch thick pieces.  I usually get about 4 slices out of one chicken breast. 

In a large bowl or a plastic bag add the lemon juice, pineapple juice, and olive oil.  Add the chicken.  Finely chop the garlic cloves and the parsley and add to the mixture.  Then add the paprika, cayenne pepper, salt, and pepper.  Stir the mixture together. 

Allow to marinade in the refrigerator for about an hour. 

After the hour, heat a large skillet with olive oil.  Coat each chicken breast with flour and then fry in the pan.  Cook for 4-5 minutes per side, or until golden brown.  Serve with pineapple salsa and enjoy!
