Ingredients:

2 tsp garlic
6g
1/4 cup olive oil
55g
1/4 cup bread crumbs
27g
1/4 cup grated parmesan cheese
24g
4 chicken breasts
470g

Instructions:

1. Preheat the Oven:
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
2. Prepare the Chicken:
Rinse the chicken breasts under cold water and pat them dry with paper towels. Place the chicken breasts on a plate and set aside.
3. Make the Garlic-Parmesan Mixture:
In a small bowl, combine the minced garlic, olive oil, bread crumbs, and grated Parmesan cheese. Mix well until the ingredients are thoroughly combined and form a slightly pasty texture.
4. Coat the Chicken:
Using a brush or spoon, evenly spread the garlic-Parmesan mixture over each chicken breast. Make sure each breast is well coated on all sides for maximum flavor.
5. Place in Baking Dish:
Arrange the coated chicken breasts in a single layer in a baking dish. You might want to lightly grease the baking dish with a little bit of olive oil to prevent sticking.
6. Bake:
Place the baking dish in the preheated oven. Bake for about 25-30 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through and the internal temperature reaches 165°F (74°C). The coating should be golden brown and crispy.
7. Serve:
Once done, remove the chicken from the oven and let it rest for a couple of minutes before serving. This allows the juices to redistribute, making the chicken more tender.
8. Optional Garnish:
For an extra touch, you can garnish with some freshly chopped parsley or a light sprinkle of additional grated Parmesan cheese.

Tips:

- Make sure the chicken breasts are of even thickness so they cook evenly.

- Marinate the chicken in the garlic and olive oil mixture for at least 30 minutes to enhance the flavor.

- For an extra crispy coating, use panko breadcrumbs instead of regular bread crumbs.

- Bake on a wire rack placed on a baking sheet to allow air circulation all around the chicken, ensuring an even, crispy crust.

- Check for doneness with a meat thermometer – the internal temperature should reach 165°F (75°C).
