Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 pieces Chicken breasts
- 3 tablespoons Honey
- 3 tablespoons Dijon mustard
- 2 tablespoons Mayonnaise
- 1 teaspoon Garlic powder
- 1.5 cups Panko breadcrumbs
- 0.5 cups Parmesan cheese, grated
- 0.5 teaspoons Paprika
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoons Black pepper
- Olive oil spray
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or lightly grease it with cooking spray.
Trim any excess fat from the chicken breasts. If the chicken breasts are thick, gently pound them to an even thickness for more uniform cooking.
In a medium bowl, whisk together the honey, Dijon mustard, mayonnaise, garlic powder, salt, and black pepper until smooth.
In a shallow dish, combine the Panko breadcrumbs, grated Parmesan cheese, and paprika. Mix well.
Dip each chicken breast into the honey mustard mixture, ensuring it's fully coated, and then press it into the breadcrumb mixture. Make sure the breadcrumbs adhere well to all sides.
Place the coated chicken breasts onto the prepared baking sheet. Lightly spray the tops of the chicken with olive oil spray to enhance crispiness.
Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until the chicken is golden brown and has an internal temperature of 165°F (74°C).
Remove from the oven and let the chicken rest for 5 minutes before serving.
Serve warm, garnished with fresh parsley if desired, and enjoy with your favorite side dishes like roasted vegetables or mashed potatoes.
