Method

Chicken Preparation

  1. 1

    Season the Chicken

    In a bowl, combine the salt, black pepper, garlic powder, and paprika. Rub this seasoning mixture evenly over the chicken breasts.

Breading Mixture

  1. 2

    Prepare the Breading Stations

    Set up a breading station with three shallow dishes. In the first dish, add the flour. In the second dish, crack the eggs and whisk them until well beaten. In the third dish, combine the breadcrumbs, grated Parmesan cheese, and dried Italian herbs.

Breading Chicken

  1. 3

    Bread the Chicken

    Coat each seasoned chicken breast in flour, shaking off any excess. Then dip it into the beaten eggs, allowing the excess to drip off. Finally, coat the chicken in the breadcrumb mixture, pressing gently to adhere. Repeat with all chicken breasts.

Cooking

  1. 4

    Cook the Chicken

    In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Once hot, carefully place the breaded chicken breasts in the skillet. Cook for about 5-7 minutes on each side or until the chicken is golden brown and cooked through (internal temperature should reach 165°F or 75°C).
