Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 pieces Boneless, skinless chicken breasts
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
- 1 teaspoon Garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon Paprika
- 3 tablespoons Olive oil
- 2 tablespoons Balsamic vinegar
- 1.5 tablespoons Honey
- 1 cup Panko breadcrumbs
- 0.5 cup Grated Parmesan cheese
- 2 tablespoons Fresh parsley (optional, for garnish)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or lightly grease it with cooking spray.
In a small bowl, mix together the salt, black pepper, garlic powder, and paprika. Sprinkle this seasoning mixture evenly over both sides of the chicken breasts.
In a shallow dish, whisk together the olive oil, balsamic vinegar, and honey until well combined.
In another shallow dish, mix the panko breadcrumbs and grated Parmesan cheese.
Dip each seasoned chicken breast into the olive oil and balsamic mixture, ensuring it is thoroughly coated.
Then, press each chicken breast into the panko-Parmesan mixture, ensuring the breadcrumbs adhere evenly for a crispy coating.
Place the coated chicken breasts on the prepared baking sheet, ensuring they are spaced apart for even cooking.
Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until the chicken reaches an internal temperature of 165°F (74°C) and the coating is golden and crispy.
Remove the chicken from the oven and let it rest for 5 minutes before serving.
Garnish with freshly chopped parsley if desired and serve alongside your favorite vegetables, salad, or sides.
