Ingredients

• 4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
• 1 cup breadcrumbs
• 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese
• 1 teaspoon garlic powder
• 1 teaspoon dried oregano
• Salt and pepper to taste
• 2 eggs, beaten
• Cooking spray
• Fresh parsley for garnish

Instructions

1. Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and grease a baking sheet with cooking spray.
2. In a shallow bowl, combine the breadcrumbs, grated Parmesan cheese, garlic powder, dried oregano, salt, and pepper.
3. Dip each chicken breast into the beaten eggs, allowing any excess to drip off, then coat the chicken in the breadcrumb mixture, pressing gently to adhere.
4. Place the coated chicken breasts on the prepared baking sheet. Lightly spray the top of each chicken breast with cooking spray to help achieve a golden-brown and crispy crust.
5. Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through and the coating is golden and crispy.
6. Garnish with fresh parsley before serving. This dish pairs wonderfully with a side salad or roasted vegetables.
