Ingredients
  

Main Ingredients
  • 4 pieces boneless, skinless chicken breasts Use fresh for best flavor
  • 1 cup grated Parmesan cheese Freshly grated is recommended
  • 1 cup breadcrumbs Panko for extra crunch
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
  • 2 pieces eggs Beaten
  • 1/4 cup olive oil For frying
  • 1/2 cup garlic sauce Store-bought or homemade
  • to taste none Fresh parsley for garnish Optional

Method
 

Preparation
  1. Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
  2. In a bowl, combine the Parmesan cheese, breadcrumbs, garlic powder, salt, and pepper.
  3. In another bowl, beat the eggs.
  4. Dip each chicken breast into the eggs, then coat with the breadcrumb mixture.
Cooking
  1. Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium heat and sear the chicken on both sides until golden brown (about 3-4 minutes per side).
  2. Transfer the chicken to a baking dish and bake for 15-20 minutes, or until cooked through.
  3. While the chicken is baking, heat the garlic sauce in a saucepan over low heat.
  4. Serve the chicken hot, drizzled with garlic sauce, and garnish with fresh parsley if desired.

Notes

Fresh Parmesan will elevate the dish significantly. For a flavor twist, consider marinating the chicken in a tangy sauce before cooking.
