Ingredients

  • 4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts

  • 1 cup grated parmesan cheese
  • 1/2 cup all-purpose flour
  • 2 eggs, beaten
  • 1/4 cup olive oil
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon dried Italian seasoning
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt

    Preheat oven to 425°F (220°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

  2. 2

    Mix together breadcrumbs, parmesan cheese, garlic powder, Italian seasoning, salt, and black pepper in a shallow dish.

  3. 3

    Place flour in a separate shallow dish. In another shallow dish, beat the eggs.

  4. 4

    Dredge each chicken breast in flour, shaking off excess.

  5. 5

    Dip chicken in beaten eggs, then coat thoroughly in the breadcrumb mixture.

  6. 6

    Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium-high heat.

  7. 7

    Add chicken and sear until golden brown, about 2 minutes per side.

  8. 8

  9. 9

    Serve hot with your choice of sides.

Chef's tip

Ensure the chicken reaches an internal temperature of 165°F (74°C) for safety. Pair with a fresh green salad or steamed vegetables for a balanced meal.
