Ingredients

Scale

  • 2 boneless, skinless chicken breasts

  • 1 cup grated Parmesan cheese

  • 1/2 cup breadcrumbs (panko or regular)

  • 2 cloves garlic, minced

  • 1 egg

  • 1/4 cup all-purpose flour

  • Salt and pepper to taste

  • 2 tablespoons olive oil

  • 1 tablespoon butter

  • 1/2 cup heavy cream

  • 1/2 cup chicken broth

  • 1/4 teaspoon red pepper flakes (optional)

  • Chopped parsley for garnish

Instructions

  1. Pound chicken breasts to even thickness. Season with salt and pepper.

  2. Set up dredging stations: flour in one bowl, beaten egg in the second, and Parmesan + breadcrumbs in the third.

  3. Dredge each chicken breast in flour, dip in egg, then coat with the Parmesan breadcrumb mixture.

  4. Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Cook chicken for 4–5 minutes on each side until golden and crispy. Remove and keep warm.

  5. In the same pan, melt butter and sauté garlic until fragrant (about 1 minute).

  6. Add chicken broth, heavy cream, and red pepper flakes. Simmer for 4–5 minutes until slightly thickened.

  7. Return chicken to skillet to coat with sauce or spoon sauce over the chicken.

  8. Garnish with parsley and serve.

Notes

  • For extra crispiness, use panko breadcrumbs.

  • Add a squeeze of lemon juice to the sauce for brightness.

  • Serve with mashed potatoes, pasta, or a light salad.
