Method
Preparation
- Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C).
- In a shallow dish, combine the breadcrumbs, half the Parmesan, Italian seasoning, salt, and pepper. Mix well.
- Whisk the eggs and milk together in a second shallow bowl until smooth.
- Place the flour in a third shallow dish.
- Pat chicken breasts dry. Dredge each breast in flour, shaking off excess. Dip into the egg mixture, then press into the breadcrumb mixture until evenly coated.
Cooking
- Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. When hot, add the chicken and cook 3–4 minutes per side, until the crust is golden brown.
- Transfer the seared chicken to a baking dish in a single layer.
- In a small bowl, mix the remaining Parmesan with the shredded mozzarella and minced garlic. Sprinkle this cheese mixture evenly over each chicken breast.
- Bake 20–25 minutes, until the chicken reaches an internal temperature of 165°F (74°C) and the cheese is melted and lightly browned. Let rest 3–5 minutes before serving.

Notes
