Description
Delightful crispy Parmesan chicken served with a luxurious creamy garlic sauce, perfect for any occasion.
Ingredients
Scale
- 4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
- 1 cup grated Parmesan cheese
- 1 cup breadcrumbs
- 2 eggs
- 2 tablespoons flour
- Salt and pepper to taste
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 cup heavy cream
- 3 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 tablespoon chopped fresh parsley
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
- Set up a breading station using three shallow dishes: one with flour, another with beaten eggs, and the last with breadcrumbs mixed with Parmesan.
- Season the chicken breasts liberally with salt and pepper.
- Dredge each chicken breast in flour, then dip in the egg, and finally coat with the breadcrumb and Parmesan mixture.
- Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat and cook the chicken for 3-4 minutes on each side until golden brown.
- Transfer the chicken to a baking dish and bake for 15-20 minutes until cooked through to an internal temperature of 165°F (75°C).
- Sauté minced garlic in a small saucepan for about a minute, then add heavy cream and stir until slightly thickened.
- Drizzle the creamy garlic sauce over the chicken and garnish with parsley before serving.
Notes
Prepare the breading in advance for quicker assembly. For a crispier finish, try using an air fryer.
