Instructions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).

Step 2

Place each chicken breast between plastic wrap or parchment paper and pound them to an even thickness, about 1/2 inch thick. Season both sides with salt and pepper.

Step 3

In separate shallow dishes, place the flour in one, beaten eggs in another, and mix the breadcrumbs and grated Parmesan cheese in a third.

Step 4

Coat each chicken breast first in the flour, then dip it into the beaten eggs, and finally, press it into the breadcrumb-Parmesan mixture, making sure it's well coated.

Step 5

Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Once hot, add the chicken breasts and cook for about 2-3 minutes per side until they are golden brown and crispy. You may need to cook in batches.
