Ingredients
  

2 boneless, skinless chicken breasts

1 cup grated Parmesan cheese

1 cup panko bread crumbs

1/2 teaspoon garlic powder

1/2 teaspoon onion powder

1 teaspoon Italian seasoning

1/2 teaspoon salt

1/4 teaspoon black pepper

1/2 cup all-purpose flour

2 large eggs, beaten

1/4 cup chopped fresh parsley (for garnish)

Cooking oil spray or olive oil for drizzling

Instructions
 

Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

    Prepare the Coating Mixture: In a mixing bowl, combine the grated Parmesan cheese, panko bread crumbs, garlic powder, onion powder, Italian seasoning, salt, and black pepper. Mix well until everything is evenly combined.

      Set Up Breading Stations: In three separate shallow dishes, place the flour in the first dish, the beaten eggs in the second, and the Parmesan breadcrumb mixture in the third.

        Bread the Chicken:

          - Take each chicken breast and lightly season both sides with salt and pepper.

            - Dredge each chicken breast in the flour, ensuring it's fully coated, and shake off any excess.

              - Dip the floured chicken into the beaten eggs, coating it completely.

                - Finally, press the chicken into the Parmesan breadcrumb mixture, making sure to cover the entire surface well. For extra crunch, you can double coat it by repeating the egg and breadcrumb steps.

                  Bake the Chicken: Place the breaded chicken breasts on the prepared baking sheet. Lightly spray the tops with cooking oil spray or drizzle with olive oil to enhance browning. Bake in the preheated oven for about 25-30 minutes, or until the chicken is golden brown and cooked through (internal temperature should reach 165°F or 74°C).

                    Garnish and Serve: Remove the chicken from the oven and let it rest for a few minutes. Garnish with chopped fresh parsley before slicing.

                      Enjoy: Serve your Longhorn Parmesan Crusted Chicken with your favorite sides, like a garden salad, mashed potatoes, or roasted vegetables.
