- 2 large eggs, beaten
- 1 cup Panko breadcrumbs
- 1/2 cup freshly grated Parmesan cheese
- 1 ounce ranch seasoning (store-bought or homemade)
Instructions
- Preheat the oven: Preheat the oven to 375°F and grease a 9×13-inch baking pan with olive oil.
- Season the chicken: Season both sides of the chicken breasts with salt and pepper.
- Prepare the coating: In three separate bowls, place the flour with salt and pepper, beaten eggs, and a mixture of breadcrumbs, Parmesan cheese, and ranch seasoning.
- Coat the chicken: Dredge each chicken breast in flour, then eggs, and finally the breadcrumb mixture. Place coated chicken in the baking dish.
- Bake: Spray the tops of the chicken with cooking spray and bake for 30 minutes until golden brown and cooked through.
Notes
- For extra crispy chicken, sear the coated chicken in a pan before baking.
- You can use cornflakes instead of Panko breadcrumbs for a different texture.
