Seasoned Breadcrumbs
"This is our all-purpose recipe for breadcrumbs. We have used these to coat chicken and pork chops. We also use them in any savory recipe that calls for breadcrumbs. My fiance and I work this recipe together. I gather the spices and he operates the hand processor."

- 6mins
- Ingredients:
- 9
- Yields:
-
2 cups
ingredients
- 2 cups dry breadcrumbs (about 4 slices of bread)
- 1 tablespoon dried parsley
- 1⁄2 teaspoon salt
- 1 teaspoon pepper
- 1⁄8 teaspoon cayenne
- 1⁄8 teaspoon sage
- 1 pinch onion powder
- 1 pinch nutmeg
- 1 pinch garlic
directions
- Pulse the bread in a food processor until they are crumbs.
- Add in the spices and either mix by hand or give another pulse in the processor.
- Notes: We use a hand processor and stop when we get to coarse crumbs.
- We add the spices straight to the processor and get the crumbs down to a slightly less coarse grind. We still don't go down to a fine grind though.
- We have found that when coating chicken or pork chops that the coarser grind makes for a really neat crunch.

This worked out wonderful! I used to buy the Italian breadcrumbs but I like this one better. I like the cayenne added to it. -

What a spicy and flavorful mix! This will give pep to anything! I used up ends of wheat French bread and rye. Great! Thanks! Made in appreciation for all your hard work in PAC! -
Needed seasoned breadcrumbs for one of Kittencal's recipes, and we never have any on hand. My husband decided to make them this time. I don't know how this could be anything other than good, as long as your spices are fresh. The chicken we made with this recipe was outstanding, so we'll definitely use this again. We put the rest of the crumbs in the freezer, so I'll have to see how they work next time.
