Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 pieces Boneless, skinless chicken breasts
- 0.5 cups All-purpose flour
- 2 pieces Large eggs
- 2 tablespoons Milk
- 1 cups Breadcrumbs
- 0.5 cups Grated Parmesan cheese
- 1 teaspoon Garlic powder
- 0.5 teaspoons Paprika
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoons Black pepper
- 1 as needed Olive oil spray
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or lightly grease it with olive oil spray.
Cut the chicken breasts into strips approximately 1 inch wide. Pat them dry with a paper towel.
Set up a breading station with three shallow bowls. In the first bowl, add the all-purpose flour. In the second bowl, whisk the eggs and milk together. In the third bowl, combine breadcrumbs, grated Parmesan cheese, garlic powder, paprika, salt, and black pepper.
Dredge each chicken strip in the flour, shaking off any excess. Dip it into the egg mixture, ensuring it's fully coated. Then, coat it in the breadcrumb and Parmesan mixture, pressing gently to adhere.
Place the breaded chicken strips on the prepared baking sheet in a single layer, ensuring they are not touching.
Lightly spray the top of the chicken strips with olive oil to help them crisp up during baking.
Bake in the preheated oven for 18-20 minutes, flipping the strips halfway through cooking for even browning. The chicken is done when it is golden brown and the internal temperature reaches 165°F (74°C).
Remove from the oven and let the chicken strips rest for 3-5 minutes before serving.
Serve the Parmesan chicken strips warm with your favorite dipping sauce, such as marinara, ranch, or honey mustard.
