Crispy Parmesan Chicken with Garlic Sauce Delight

Ingredients

• 4 pieces boneless, skinless chicken breasts
• 1 cup breadcrumbs (preferably panko)
• 0.5 cup grated Parmesan cheese
• 2 teaspoons dried Italian herbs (oregano, basil, thyme)
• 1 teaspoon garlic powder
• 0.5 teaspoon salt
• 0.25 teaspoon black pepper
• 2 large eggs
• 0.25 cup all-purpose flour
• 4 tablespoons olive oil
• 4 cloves garlic, minced
• 0.5 cup chicken broth
• 2 tablespoons fresh parsley, chopped (for garnish)

Instructions

1. Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper for easy cleanup.
2. In a shallow dish, combine the breadcrumbs, grated Parmesan, Italian herbs, garlic powder, salt, and black pepper.
3. In another shallow dish, whisk together the eggs. In a third dish, place the flour.
4. Dredge each chicken breast in the flour, shaking off the excess. Next, dip it into the egg mixture, followed by the breadcrumb mixture, pressing down to adhere the breadcrumbs well.
5. Arrange the coated chicken breasts on the prepared baking sheet. Drizzle the tops with 2 tablespoons of olive oil.
6. Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes or until the chicken is golden brown and cooked through (internal temperature should reach 165°F or 74°C).
7. While the chicken is baking, prepare the garlic sauce. In a skillet over medium heat, add the remaining 2 tablespoons of olive oil. Once hot, add the minced garlic and sauté for about 1 minute until fragrant.
8. Carefully pour in the chicken broth and let it simmer for about 2-3 minutes until slightly thickened. Remove from heat.
9. When the chicken is done, drizzle the garlic sauce over the crispy chicken breasts and garnish with fresh parsley.
