Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 pieces Boneless, skinless chicken breasts
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 1 teaspoon Black pepper
- 1 teaspoon Garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon Paprika
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil
- 4 slices Swiss cheese
- 8 rings Frozen onion rings
- 0.5 cup All-purpose flour
- 2 large Eggs
- 1 cup Panko breadcrumbs
- 0.25 cup Parmesan cheese, grated
- 1 as needed Cooking spray
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper or lightly grease with cooking spray.
Pat the chicken breasts dry with paper towels. Season them on both sides with salt, black pepper, garlic powder, and paprika.
Set up a breading station: Place the flour in one shallow bowl, beat the eggs in a second bowl, and mix the panko breadcrumbs with grated Parmesan cheese in a third bowl.
Dredge each chicken breast in the flour, then dip into the beaten eggs, and finally coat with the breadcrumb mixture. Press the breadcrumbs gently onto the chicken to adhere.
Heat olive oil in a large oven-safe skillet over medium-high heat. Sear the chicken breasts for 2-3 minutes per side until golden brown.
Transfer the chicken breasts to the prepared baking sheet and bake in the oven for 20-25 minutes, or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F (74°C).
About 5 minutes before the chicken is done, remove the baking sheet from the oven. Top each chicken breast with a slice of Swiss cheese and two onion rings. Return to the oven and cook until the cheese melts and the onion rings are crispy.
Remove the chicken from the oven and let rest for 5 minutes. Serve immediately with your favorite sides, such as mashed potatoes or a green salad.
