Ingredients
- 4 pieces boneless, skinless chicken breasts
- 0.5 cups all-purpose flour
- 2 large eggs
- 2 tablespoons milk
- 1 cups breadcrumbs
- 0.5 cups grated Parmesan cheese
- 1 teaspoons garlic powder
- 1 teaspoons paprika
- 1 teaspoons salt
- 0.5 teaspoons black pepper
- 3 tablespoons olive oil
Directions
Step 1
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and lightly grease a baking sheet or line it with parchment paper.
Step 2
Place the chicken breasts between two sheets of plastic wrap or parchment paper and pound them to an even thickness using a meat mallet or rolling pin.
Step 3
Set up a breading station with three shallow bowls: one with flour, one with eggs and milk whisked together, and one with a mixture of breadcrumbs, grated Parmesan cheese, garlic powder, paprika, salt, and black pepper.
Step 4
Dredge each chicken breast in the flour, shaking off any excess, then dip it into the egg mixture, and finally coat it in the breadcrumb mixture, pressing gently to ensure the coating sticks.
Step 5
Heat olive oil in a large non-stick skillet over medium heat. Sear the breaded chicken breasts for 2-3 minutes on each side, just until golden and crisp. Do not cook them all the way through.
Step 6
Transfer the seared chicken breasts to the prepared baking sheet and bake in the oven for 15-20 minutes, or until the internal temperature of the chicken reaches 165°F (74°C).
Step 7
Let the chicken rest for 5 minutes before serving. Pair with your favorite sides, such as mashed potatoes, rice, or a fresh salad.
