Ingredients Method Notes

Ingredients
  

Main ingredients
  • 4 pieces chicken breasts
  • 1 cup breadcrumbs
  • 1 cup grated Parmesan cheese
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1/2 cup butter
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • Fresh parsley for garnish (optional)

Method
 

Preparation
  1. Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C).
  2. In a bowl, mix breadcrumbs and grated Parmesan cheese.
  3. Season the chicken breasts with salt and pepper.
  4. Dredge each chicken breast in the breadcrumb mixture until fully coated.
Cooking
  1. In a skillet, melt butter over medium heat and add minced garlic.
  2. Sear the chicken breasts in the skillet until golden brown on both sides, about 3-4 minutes per side.
  3. Transfer the chicken to a baking dish and drizzle any remaining garlic butter on top.
  4. Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes until cooked through.
Serving
  1. Serve hot, garnished with fresh parsley if desired.

Notes

Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. For longer storage, freeze for up to 2 months. Thaw and reheat in the oven before serving. Ensure chicken breasts are of even thickness for uniform cooking. Add herbs like Italian seasoning to the breadcrumbs for extra flavor and red pepper flakes for a spicier kick.
