Ingredients

Scale

Chicken

  • 2 boneless, skinless chicken breasts

Breading Mixture

  • 1/2 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1/4 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1/4 teaspoon onion powder
  • 1/4 teaspoon paprika
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon black pepper

Coating

  • 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese
  • 1/2 cup panko breadcrumbs

Egg Wash

  • 2 eggs, beaten

Cooking Fat

  • 2 tablespoons butter
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil

Creamy Garlic Sauce

  • 1/2 cup heavy cream
  • 1/4 cup chicken broth
  • 1/2 cup shredded mozzarella cheese

Garnish

  • Fresh parsley, chopped (for garnish)

Instructions

  1. Preheat Oven: Start by preheating your oven to 375°F (190°C) to ensure it’s ready for baking the chicken after searing.
  2. Prepare Breading Mix: In a shallow bowl, mix the flour with garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, salt, and black pepper to create a seasoned flour blend.
  3. Prepare Coating Mixture: In a separate bowl, combine the grated Parmesan cheese and panko breadcrumbs, which will give the chicken its signature crunchy crust.
  4. Bread the Chicken: Dip each chicken breast first into the seasoned flour mixture, then into the beaten eggs, and finally coat thoroughly with the Parmesan-panko mixture, pressing gently so the coating adheres well.
  5. Sear the Chicken: Heat the butter and olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Once hot, add the coated chicken breasts and cook for 3-4 minutes per side until each side is golden brown and crispy.
  6. Bake the Chicken: Transfer the seared chicken breasts to a baking dish and bake in the preheated oven for 15-20 minutes until the chicken is fully cooked with an internal temperature of 165°F (74°C).
  7. Make Creamy Garlic Sauce: While the chicken bakes, use the same skillet to combine heavy cream and chicken broth. Stir well and bring to a simmer over medium heat, cooking for 2-3 minutes until the sauce slightly thickens.
  8. Add Mozzarella Cheese: Remove the skillet from heat and stir in the shredded mozzarella cheese until melted and creamy.
  9. Serve and Garnish: Drizzle the creamy garlic sauce over the baked Parmesan chicken and garnish with freshly chopped parsley before serving.

Notes

  • For a spicy twist, add red pepper flakes or cayenne pepper to the cream sauce while simmering.
  • To make this recipe gluten-free, substitute all-purpose flour with almond flour and use gluten-free panko breadcrumbs.
  • For a lighter sauce, replace heavy cream with half-and-half or coconut milk.
  • Ensure chicken breasts are patted dry before breading to help the coating stick better.
  • Use fresh grated Parmesan cheese for better flavor and texture compared to pre-grated varieties.
