Description
A delightful dish combining juicy chicken breasts with a crunchy Parmesan coating for a perfect balance of flavors.
Ingredients
Scale
- 2 chicken breasts
- 1 cup grated Parmesan cheese
- 1 cup breadcrumbs
- 2 eggs
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon onion powder
- Salt and pepper to taste
- Olive oil for frying
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
- Beat the eggs in a shallow bowl until well combined. In another bowl, mix the grated Parmesan cheese, breadcrumbs, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and pepper.
- Dip each chicken breast in the beaten eggs, allowing excess to drip off, then coat with the Parmesan mixture, pressing down to ensure it sticks.
- Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium heat, add the coated chicken breasts and cook for about 4-5 minutes on each side until golden brown. Transfer to a baking dish and bake for 20-25 minutes until fully cooked.
- Remove the chicken from the oven and serve hot.
