Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 pieces chicken breast fillets
- 1 cup gluten-free breadcrumbs
- 0.5 cup grated Parmesan cheese
- 1 teaspoon paprika
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon dried oregano
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
- 2 large eggs
- 2 tablespoons water
- 2 tablespoons olive oil or melted butter
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and set aside.
In a shallow dish, combine the gluten-free breadcrumbs, grated Parmesan cheese, paprika, garlic powder, dried oregano, salt, and black pepper. Mix well to ensure all the ingredients are evenly distributed.
In another shallow dish, whisk together the eggs and water until the mixture is well blended.
Dip each chicken breast fillet into the egg mixture, ensuring it's completely coated.
Transfer the chicken fillet into the breadcrumb mixture. Press down gently, turning to coat both sides with the breadcrumb mixture. Repeat with all chicken fillets.
Arrange the coated chicken fillets on the prepared baking sheet. Drizzle each fillet lightly with olive oil or melted butter to encourage browning and crispiness.
Bake in the preheated oven for 20 to 25 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through and the coating is golden brown and crispy.
Remove from the oven and let the chicken fillets rest for about 5 minutes before serving. This helps retain juiciness.
Serve the gluten-free oven-baked chicken fillets warm with your choice of sides, such as a fresh salad or roasted vegetables.
