This dish is made with tender chicken breasts that are coated in a crispy and flavorful Parmesan crust.

To make this dish, you will need the following ingredients:
- 4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
- 1 cup of grated Parmesan cheese
- 1 cup of panko breadcrumbs
- 1 teaspoon of garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon of dried oregano
- 1 teaspoon of dried basil
- Salt and pepper to taste
- 2 eggs, beaten
- Olive oil for frying
To start, preheat your oven to 375°F. In a shallow dish, mix together the Parmesan cheese, panko breadcrumbs, garlic powder, oregano, basil, salt, and pepper. In another shallow dish, beat the eggs.
Dip each chicken breast into the beaten eggs, then coat it in the Parmesan mixture, pressing the mixture onto the chicken to ensure it sticks. Repeat with the remaining chicken breasts.
Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat and add enough olive oil to coat the bottom of the pan. Once the oil is hot, add the chicken breasts and cook for 3-4 minutes on each side, or until golden brown.
Transfer the chicken breasts to a baking sheet and bake in the preheated oven for 15-20 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through and the crust is crispy and golden brown.
Serve the Parmesan Crusted Chicken Breast hot with your favorite sides, such as roasted vegetables or mashed potatoes.
This dish is a perfect combination of crispy and juicy, with a savory and cheesy flavor that will leave your taste buds satisfied. It is a great option for a quick and easy weeknight dinner or a special occasion.
