Parmesan garlic chicken breasts are a delicious and easy-to-prepare dish that combines the savory flavors of garlic and Parmesan cheese with tender, juicy chicken. This recipe is perfect for a weeknight dinner or a special occasion, offering a burst of flavor without requiring extensive prep time.
Instructions:
- Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
- Rinse the chicken breasts under cold water and pat them dry with paper towels.
- In a shallow bowl or plate, combine the grated parmesan cheese and bread crumbs. Mix well to ensure even distribution.
- In a small bowl, mix the olive oil with the minced garlic.
- Brush each chicken breast generously with the garlic-infused olive oil. Ensure that both sides are well-coated.
- Dredge the oiled chicken breasts in the parmesan and bread crumb mixture. Press gently so the coating adheres well.
- Place the coated chicken breasts on a baking sheet or in a baking dish. If you want an easier cleanup, line the baking sheet with parchment paper or foil.
- Put the chicken in the preheated oven and bake for 25-30 minutes, or until the coating is golden brown and the chicken is cooked through. An internal temperature of 165°F (75°C) indicates doneness.
- Remove the chicken from the oven and let it rest for a few minutes before serving. This allows the juices to redistribute, making the chicken more moist and flavorful.
Tips:
- Pound the chicken breasts to an even thickness for faster and more uniform cooking.
- Marinate the chicken in the olive oil and garlic mixture for 30 minutes to enhance the flavor.
- Use freshly grated Parmesan cheese for the best taste and texture.
- Consider adding a sprinkle of Italian seasoning or fresh herbs like parsley for additional flavor.
- Serve with a side of steamed vegetables or a fresh salad for a complete meal.
