  • Total Time: 45 minutes
  • Yield: 4 servings

Ingredients

  • 4 boneless chicken breasts
  • 1 cup Romano cheese, grated
  • 1 cup breadcrumbs
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1/4 cup fresh herbs (parsley or basil), chopped
  • 1/4 cup olive oil
  • Salt and black pepper to taste

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
  2. Combine the breadcrumbs, Romano cheese, garlic, and herbs in a shallow dish. Season with salt and pepper.
  3. Prepare the chicken breasts by gently flattening them for even cooking.
  4. Dip each chicken breast into the breadcrumb mixture, pressing down for a thick coat.
  5. Heat olive oil in a large oven-safe skillet over medium-high heat and place chicken in the skillet.
  6. Sauté for about 4-5 minutes on each side until golden brown.
  7. Transfer the skillet to the oven and bake for 15-20 minutes until cooked through.
  8. Let the chicken rest for a few minutes before slicing.

Notes

Serve with a fresh salad or creamy mashed potatoes. Let the chicken rest after cooking to retain moisture.
