Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 pieces Chicken breasts
- 1 cup All-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 1 teaspoon Black pepper
- 2 large Eggs
- 2 tablespoons Milk
- 2 cups Breadcrumbs
- 1 cup Parmesan cheese, grated
- 1 teaspoon Garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon Paprika
- 1 teaspoon Dried parsley
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper or lightly grease it with olive oil.
Place the all-purpose flour in a shallow bowl and mix in the salt and black pepper.
In a separate shallow bowl, whisk together the eggs and milk until combined.
In a third bowl, combine the breadcrumbs, grated Parmesan cheese, garlic powder, paprika, and dried parsley.
Pat the chicken breasts dry with paper towels, then coat each piece in the seasoned flour, shaking off any excess.
Dip each floured chicken breast into the egg mixture, ensuring it's fully covered.
Press the chicken breasts into the breadcrumb mixture, coating them evenly on all sides. Gently press the crumbs onto the chicken to help them stick.
Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Sear the crumb-coated chicken for 2-3 minutes on each side to create a golden crust. Transfer the seared chicken to the prepared baking sheet.
Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through and reaches an internal temperature of 165°F (74°C).
Remove the chicken from the oven and let it rest for 5 minutes before serving. Enjoy your crispy, flavorful crumb-coated chicken with your favorite sides!
