Ingredients
- 4 boneless chicken breasts
- 1 cup freshly grated Parmesan cheese
- 1 cup breadcrumbs
- 2 eggs, whisked
- 1 cup heavy cream
- 4 cloves fresh garlic, minced
- 3 tablespoons butter
- Fresh herbs (like parsley or thyme)
- Salt and pepper to taste
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Pat your chicken dry and season with salt and pepper.
- Set up your breading station: breadcrumbs in one bowl, whisked eggs in another, and grated Parmesan in a third.
- Dip each piece of chicken into the egg, let excess drip off, then coat with the breadcrumb and Parmesan mixture.
- Sear the chicken in a large oven-safe skillet with melted butter, cooking for 3-4 minutes on each side until golden brown.
- Transfer the skillet to the oven and bake for 15-20 minutes until the chicken reaches an internal temperature of 165°F (75°C).
- Melt more butter in the same skillet, sauté the garlic, then add heavy cream and other seasonings for the sauce.
- Return the chicken to the skillet, spoon sauce over the top, and let sit before serving.
Notes
Serve with sautéed vegetables or a fresh salad for a complete meal.
