Ingredients
Method
Preparation
- Preheat the oven to 375°F.
- Arrange three shallow dishes: flour in the first; whisked eggs and milk in the second; breadcrumbs mixed with half the Parmesan, Italian seasoning, salt, and pepper in the third.
- Pound each chicken breast to about 1/2 inch thickness between sheets of plastic wrap or in a zip-top bag.
- Dredge each breast in flour, shaking off excess. Dip into the egg mixture, then press firmly into the breadcrumb mixture so the coating sticks.
Cooking
- Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium-high heat until shimmering.
- Cook chicken 3 to 4 minutes per side until golden brown and crisp.
- Transfer the seared breasts to a baking dish arranged in a single layer.
- Stir the remaining Parmesan with the mozzarella and minced garlic. Evenly sprinkle the cheese mixture over each breast.
- Bake for 20 to 25 minutes, until cheese is melted and an instant-read thermometer reads 165°F in the thickest part of the chicken.
- Let the chicken rest for 5 minutes before serving.

Notes
For best crispness, bread and cook the same day. Store leftovers in an airtight container for up to 3 days.
