This recipe offers a delightful twist on baked chicken, featuring a crispy parmesan coating and a touch of spice.
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
Preheating ensures even cooking and the right texture.
In a shallow bowl, whisk together the egg and milk until well combined.
Whisking thoroughly ensures a smooth mixture for even coating.
In another shallow bowl, mix the parmesan cheese, breadcrumbs, paprika, salt, and pepper.
Mixing the dry ingredients well ensures a consistent flavor in every bite.
Dip each chicken breast into the egg mixture, then coat it evenly with the breadcrumb mixture.
Press the chicken into the breadcrumb mixture to ensure a thick, even coating.
Place the coated chicken breasts in a greased baking dish.
Ensure the chicken pieces are not touching for even cooking.
Drizzle the melted butter over the chicken.
Butter adds richness and helps achieve a golden crust.
Bake the chicken in the preheated oven for 50-60 minutes, or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F (74°C).
Using a meat thermometer ensures the chicken is cooked through.
Serve the chicken hot, garnished with fresh parsley if desired.
Serving immediately preserves the crispy texture of the coating.
