Salad Ingredients
Method
Preparation of Chicken

Prepare the Chicken Breasts
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Place the chicken breasts between two sheets of plastic wrap and pound them to an even thickness of about 1/2 inch using a meat mallet or rolling pin.

Bread the Chicken
Set up a breading station: In one bowl, beat the eggs. In another bowl, mix the breadcrumbs and grated Parmesan cheese. Dip each chicken breast in the beaten eggs, then coat with the breadcrumb mixture, pressing gently to adhere.

Bake the Chicken
Place the breaded chicken breasts on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Drizzle with a little olive oil. Bake for 25-30 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through and golden brown.
