Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Pound each chicken breast to an even thickness of about 1/2 inch.
In a shallow dish, whisk together the gluten-free flour, salt, pepper, garlic powder, and oregano.
In another shallow dish, beat the eggs and milk together.
In a third shallow dish, combine the gluten-free breadcrumbs and grated parmesan cheese.
Dredge each chicken breast first in the flour mixture, shaking off any excess.
Dip each chicken breast into the egg mixture ensuring it is completely coated.
Finally, press each chicken breast into the breadcrumb mixture until well coated on all sides.
Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the chicken breasts and cook for 3-4 minutes on each side, or until golden brown.
Transfer the chicken to the prepared baking sheet and continue cooking in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through and reaches an internal temperature of 165°F (74°C).
Remove from the oven and let rest for a few minutes before serving.
Optional: Garnish with fresh herbs or lemon wedges before serving.
