2 lbs Boneless chicken breasts Using fresh chicken will result in a juicier texture.
1 cup Grated Parmesan cheese
1 cup Breadcrumbs Consider using gluten-free breadcrumbs for a gluten-free option.
2 large Eggs Beaten well.
1 teaspoon Garlic powder
to taste Salt
to taste Pepper
2 tablespoons Olive oil Drizzled over chicken before baking.

Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
In a shallow bowl, combine grated Parmesan cheese, breadcrumbs, garlic powder, salt, and pepper.
In another bowl, beat the eggs until well mixed.
Dip each chicken breast into the egg mixture, then into the breadcrumb mixture, ensuring they are completely coated.
Place the coated chicken on the prepared baking sheet and drizzle with olive oil.

Bake for 20-25 minutes or until the chicken is golden brown and cooked through (internal temperature should reach 165°F or 75°C).

Allow the chicken to rest for a few minutes before serving. Serve garnished with fresh parsley or extra Parmesan.
