Ingredients
  

2 large chicken breasts

1 cup grated Parmesan cheese

1 cup breadcrumbs (preferably panko for extra crunch)

2 eggs

1/2 cup all-purpose flour

1 teaspoon garlic powder

1 teaspoon onion powder

1 teaspoon Italian seasoning

Salt and pepper to taste

1/4 cup fresh parsley, chopped (for garnish)

Olive oil (for drizzling)

Instructions
 

Prep the Chicken: Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Pound the chicken breasts to an even thickness for uniform cooking. This will ensure they cook evenly and stay juicy.

    Set up Breading Stations: In three separate shallow dishes, prepare your breading stations:

      - In the first dish, place the flour seasoned with salt and pepper.

        - In the second dish, whisk the eggs until smooth.

          - In the third dish, combine the grated Parmesan cheese, breadcrumbs, garlic powder, onion powder, Italian seasoning, and a bit of salt and pepper.

            Breading Process:

              - Dredge each chicken breast in the flour, ensuring it's fully coated.

                - Next, dip the chicken into the egg mixture, letting any excess drip off.

                  - Finally, coat the chicken with the Parmesan and breadcrumb mixture, pressing gently to ensure it sticks well.

                    Bake the Chicken: Place the breaded chicken breasts onto a parchment-lined baking sheet. Drizzle a little olive oil over each piece to help with browning. Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, or until the chicken reaches an internal temperature of 165°F (74°C) and is golden and crispy.

                      Garnish and Serve: Once out of the oven, let the chicken rest for a few minutes. Garnish with freshly chopped parsley before slicing and serving.

                        Enjoy! Serve your Parmesan crusted chicken with your favorite sides, such as a fresh salad, roasted vegetables, or mashed potatoes!
