Tips:
- Ensure the chicken breasts are evenly thick to promote even cooking. You can pound them to achieve an even thickness if necessary.
- For extra crispiness, allow the coated chicken breasts to rest for about 10-15 minutes before cooking. This helps the coating adhere better to the chicken.
- Bake the chicken on a wire rack placed over a baking sheet to ensure the bottom of the chicken breasts remains crispy and doesn't get soggy.
- Let the chicken rest for a few minutes after cooking to allow the juices to redistribute, making the meat more tender and flavorful.
- Experiment with different herbs and spices to customize the flavor to your liking. Try adding Italian seasoning, rosemary, or thyme for a unique twist.
With its crispy, golden-brown crust and tender, flavorful meat, Parmesan-crusted chicken breasts are sure to become a favorite in your meal rotation. This recipe not only adds a delicious twist to the usual chicken dinner but also ensures you have a fantastic dish with minimal effort. Serve it with a side of vegetables or a fresh salad for a well-rounded and satisfying meal.
