Ingredients
  

Main Ingredients
  • 4 pieces boneless, skinless chicken breasts
  • 1 cup bread crumbs
  • 1 cup grated Parmesan cheese divided into two portions
  • 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
  • 1/2 cup all-purpose flour
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1/4 cup milk
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 teaspoon Italian seasoning
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil

Method
 

Preparation
  1. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Set up three shallow dishes: one for flour, one for the egg mixture, and one for the breadcrumb mixture.
  2. In the breadcrumb dish, mix together the bread crumbs, half of the Parmesan cheese, Italian seasoning, salt, and black pepper.
Coating the Chicken
  1. In the second dish, beat the eggs with the milk until well combined.
  2. Dredge each chicken breast in the flour first, ensuring it's coated evenly. Then dip it into the egg mixture, and finally into the breadcrumb mixture, pressing down lightly to ensure a good coating.
Cooking
  1. In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat.
  2. Add the coated chicken and cook for about 3-4 minutes on each side, or until they are golden brown.
  3. Once cooked, transfer the chicken to a baking dish.
Baking
  1. In a small bowl, mix the remaining Parmesan cheese with the mozzarella and minced garlic.
  2. Spread this mixture generously over the chicken in the baking dish.
  3. Bake in the oven for about 20-25 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through and reaches an internal temperature of 165°F (75°C).

Notes

For serving, garnish with fresh herbs and pair with pasta or a simple salad. Leftovers can be stored for up to 3 days in the fridge. To reheat, use an oven to maintain crispiness.
