How To Make Homemade Panko

Here is a link to Upper Crust Enterprises, they make and sell panko - here you can read the process they use to make their panko. After reading about how panko is truly made, I am not sure that you will really be able to make authentic panko at home.

That being said...I did find a recipe for homemade panko from the blog called "From our (Brazilian) House to Yours". It looks pretty good and has some good photos. I have not tried it myself...if you decide to try it, I would love to know how it turned out.

Hope this helps!

Panko with Sesame

Mmm Mmm Good! : )
I use Panko often but have never combined it with anything else. Adding the sesame in really made a nice difference and I will (hopefully) remember to add them again whenever I am using Panko with an asian influence in my meals. Really enjoyed this recipe, Thanks!

Not sure what I did wrong...

Enjoyed the salad portion of the meal. Had trouble with the chicken. Followed the info taught in panfrying lesson, but coating burned before chicken cooked. Started over with a fresh pan, but same results. Any thoughts on why this happened? I hadn't measured out the oil, but had a teaspoon amount pooled on the edge when tilting the pan, as taught. Would this have been the cause?

RE: Trouble with Pan Frying Chicken

In terms of heating the pan, you are correct to follow the pan frying lesson to obtain the correct heat level; however, whenever there is breading on food, more oil is required to properly pan fry and achieve a golden, crispy crust. Without enough oil, the breading will burn before the chicken is cooked through. You will see in this recipe that 3 to 5 tbsp of oil are used to pan fry; however, you can even use quite a bit more...you can even shallow-fry the chicken which means using enough oil so that it rises half way up the chicken (as show in Step 5 of this video). Yes, less oil is healthier, but you compensate on obtaining a nice, golden, crispy crust and run into these sorts of problems when trying to pan fry breaded foods. Hope this helps! Cheers!

Nice recipe -- easy to make

I really enjoyed this recipe. Overall, I thought it was quite simple to make, and the chicken breast (a cut of meat that I tend to avoid frying or grilling because of dryness) turned out very succulent. I also really liked the sesame seeds in the breading. It added an interesting dimension to the dish.

If I were to do this over again, I would marinade this overnight. I only soaked the chicken for 3 hours, and the flavor of the marinade on the meat was very mild. The marinade tasted great on the salad, though.
I might also consider adding some orange slices to the salad for additional color and flavor.

Thanks so much

Baked it and still great

New years resolution to drop a few pounds so I baked the chicken instead of frying it. I just put a bit of oil on my baking sheet to prevent sticking. I baked at 350 with convection for 15 minutes and turned them half way through. Amazingly crispy on the outside, tender on the inside and tasty. I will bake again in the future.

Wonderful!!!

This was an amazing recipe. The wonderful flavorful crispy chicken w/the fresh tasting salad (i think I will put cilantro in all my salads, it add such a nice fresh taste), and then the spicy but delicious dressing. The combinations are great together. The only thing I did different was I made my salad w/half spring mix greens and half baby spinach. Great recipe and good directions. I was able to prepare quite a bit of stuff ahead of time, then when I fried my chicken I just tossed the salad, plated it and added the chicken. Thanks for the recipe and good instructions!
