Step-by-Step Instructions for Parmesan Chicken

  • Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and prepare a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
  • In a medium bowl, combine breadcrumbs, grated Parmesan, garlic powder, onion powder, and Italian seasoning.
  • Drizzle olive oil over the chicken breasts, ensuring they are evenly coated.
  • Dredge each oiled chicken breast in the breadcrumb mixture, pressing gently for a thick coating.
  • Place the coated chicken breasts on the prepared baking sheet, ensuring they aren't touching.
  • Bake the chicken for 25-30 minutes, or until golden-brown and cooked through.
  • Let the chicken rest for a few minutes before serving with your favorite sides.

Notes

Letting the chicken rest after baking helps maintain juiciness. Storing leftovers in an airtight container keeps it fresh for up to 3 days.
