A delightful twist on a classic chicken dish, featuring a crispy herb-infused crust and tender, juicy chicken.
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
Preheating ensures even cooking and the right texture.
In a mixing bowl, whisk together the egg and water until well combined.
Use a fork if you don't have a whisk handy.
In another bowl, mix the Parmesan cheese and dried herbs.
Ensure the herbs are evenly distributed for consistent flavor.
Dip each chicken breast into the egg wash, then coat it with the Parmesan and herb mixture.
Press the chicken gently into the mixture to ensure a good coating.
Heat butter in a skillet over medium heat and brown the chicken for 2 minutes on each side.
Don't overcrowd the skillet to maintain the heat level.
Transfer the chicken to a greased baking dish and bake for 30 minutes, or until fully cooked.
Use a meat thermometer to check for an internal temperature of 165°F (74°C).
Serve the chicken warm, garnished with a sprinkle of fresh herbs if desired.
Pair with a side of steamed vegetables or a fresh salad for a complete meal.
