Ingredients
Scale
Main Proteins:
- 4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
- 1 cup grated Parmesan cheese
- 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
Dry Coating Ingredients:
- 1 cup bread crumbs
- ½ cup all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon Italian seasoning
- ½ teaspoon salt
- ¼ teaspoon black pepper
Wet Ingredients and Seasonings:
- 2 large eggs
- ¼ cup milk
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
Instructions
- Marinate 4 chicken breasts with 2 tablespoons olive oil, mixing thoroughly to ensure each piece gets coated evenly for 30 minutes at room temperature.
- Create dry coating by combining 1 cup bread crumbs, ½ cup flour, ½ cup Parmesan cheese, 1 teaspoon Italian seasoning, ½ teaspoon salt, and ¼ teaspoon pepper in a wide shallow dish.
- Whisk 2 eggs and ¼ cup milk in a separate bowl until completely blended.
- Dredge each chicken breast in flour first, shaking off excess, then dip into egg mixture, allowing extra liquid to drip off.
- Roll chicken in prepared bread crumb mixture, pressing gently to ensure complete and even coating.
- Heat 2 tablespoons olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat at 350°F.
- Cook breaded chicken for 3-4 minutes on first side until golden brown, then flip and cook additional 3-4 minutes.
- Mix remaining ½ cup Parmesan, 1 cup mozzarella, and 2 minced garlic cloves in a small bowl.
- Sprinkle cheese mixture evenly over chicken pieces.
- Bake at 400°F for 5-7 minutes until cheese melts and becomes slightly bubbly.
Notes
- Marinate chicken for at least 30 minutes to enhance flavor and tenderness, ensuring the olive oil, salt, and pepper are evenly distributed.
- Use a shallow dish for breading to make coating easier and prevent clumping, creating an even, crispy layer on the chicken.
- Check the internal temperature of the chicken reaches 165°F to guarantee it’s fully cooked while maintaining juiciness.
- Experiment with different Italian herbs or add a pinch of red pepper flakes to the breadcrumb mixture for a personalized flavor twist.
