  • Author: Chef Ethan Sam
  • Total Time: 20 minute

Ingredients

To create the delicious Crispy Baked Chicken Breasts with Garlic and Parmesan Crust, you will need the following ingredients:

– 4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
– 1 cup breadcrumbs (preferably panko for extra crunch)
– 1 cup grated Parmesan cheese
– 4 cloves garlic, minced
– 2 teaspoons dried Italian herbs (such as oregano and basil)
– 1 teaspoon salt
– ½ teaspoon black pepper
– 2 large eggs
– ¼ cup all-purpose flour
– Cooking spray or olive oil for drizzling


Instructions

Follow these easy steps to prepare your Crispy Baked Chicken Breasts with Garlic and Parmesan Crust:

1. Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Prepare a baking sheet by lining it with parchment paper or greasing it lightly.

2. Prepare Coating Mixture: In a bowl, combine breadcrumbs, Parmesan cheese, minced garlic, dried herbs, salt, and black pepper.

3. Set Up Dipping Station: Create a three-step station for the chicken. Place flour in one shallow dish, beaten eggs in another, and the breadcrumb mixture in the third.

4. Coat the Chicken: Dip each chicken breast in flour first, shaking off the excess. Move it to the egg mixture, coating evenly. Finally, coat the chicken in the breadcrumb mixture, pressing gently to adhere.

5. Place on Baking Sheet: Arrange the coated chicken breasts on the prepared baking sheet. Ensure they are spaced apart to allow for even baking.

6. Spray with Oil: Lightly spray the tops of the chicken breasts with cooking spray or drizzle with olive oil to promote browning.

7. Bake: Bake in the preheated oven for 30-35 minutes or until the chicken is cooked through and the tops are golden and crispy.

8. Check for Doneness: Ensure the internal temperature of the chicken reaches 165°F (75°C) using a meat thermometer for safe consumption.

9. Let Rest: Once done, take the chicken out of the oven and let it rest for a few minutes.

10. Serve and Enjoy: Slice and serve the chicken warm with your choice of sides.
