Golden, crispy Parmesan-crusted chicken served with a luscious creamy garlic sauce. Perfect for a cozy dinner or an elegant occasion.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 large boneless, skinless chicken breasts
  • 1 cup freshly grated Parmesan cheese
  • 1/2 cup Panko breadcrumbs
  • 2 large eggs
  • 3 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 cup heavy cream
  • 2 tablespoons butter

Instructions

  1. Slice or pound chicken breasts to even thickness and season with salt and pepper.
  2. Set up a breading station with beaten eggs in one bowl, and a mixture of Parmesan and breadcrumbs in another.
