To make this dish, you will need the following ingredients:
- 4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
- 1 cup of grated Parmesan cheese
- 1/2 cup of all-purpose flour
- 2 eggs
- 1/4 cup of lemon juice
- 1/4 cup of olive oil
- 1 tablespoon of garlic powder
- Salt and pepper to taste
To start, preheat your oven to 375°F. Then, prepare the chicken breasts by pounding them to an even thickness. In a shallow dish, mix together the flour, garlic powder, salt, and pepper. In another shallow dish, beat the eggs. In a third shallow dish, mix together the Parmesan cheese and lemon zest.
Dip each chicken breast into the flour mixture, then the egg mixture, and finally the Parmesan mixture, making sure to coat each piece evenly. Place the chicken breasts onto a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
Drizzle the olive oil and lemon juice over the chicken breasts. Bake for 25-30 minutes or until the chicken is cooked through and the crust is golden brown.
Once the chicken is done, remove it from the oven and let it rest for a few minutes before serving. This dish is best served with a side of roasted vegetables or a fresh salad.
