Description

A dish that combines crispy textures with a rich, savory garlic sauce, featuring juicy chicken breasts coated in Parmesan cheese and panko breadcrumbs.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 4 small–medium chicken breasts
  • Salt and pepper
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • ½ cup grated Parmesan cheese
  • ½ cup panko breadcrumbs
  • 3–4 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 cup light or heavy cream
  • 1 tablespoon Italian seasoning or oregano

Instructions

  1. Preheat your skillet over medium heat. Season the chicken breasts with salt and pepper, covering both sides.
  2. In a mixing bowl, combine the grated Parmesan cheese and panko breadcrumbs. Dip each chicken breast into this mixture, pressing down lightly to ensure a good coating.
  3. Add olive oil to your hot skillet, then carefully place the coated chicken breasts in. Cook them for about 5–7 minutes per side, until golden brown and cooked through.
  4. Remove the chicken, add minced garlic to the skillet, and sauté for a minute until fragrant. Pour in the cream and add the Italian seasoning, stirring well.
  5. Return the chicken breasts to the skillet, letting them simmer in the creamy garlic sauce for about 2–3 minutes.

Notes

Consider marinating the chicken for more flavor. Use fresh garlic for best results.
