Ingredients
- 4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
- 1 cup grated Parmesan cheese (divided)
- 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
- 1 cup bread crumbs
- 1/2 cup all-purpose flour

- 1/4 cup milk

- 1 teaspoon dried Italian seasoning
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
Ingredient Tips
Chicken Breasts: Choose boneless, skinless chicken breasts that are about the same size to ensure even cooking. If the breasts are very thick, consider pounding them to an even thickness to help them cook more evenly.
Parmesan Cheese: Freshly grated Parmesan cheese offers the best flavor and texture, so try to use it if possible. Pre-grated cheese can sometimes have added starches that affect the texture.
Bread Crumbs: Use plain or Italian-seasoned bread crumbs based on your preference. Panko bread crumbs can be substituted for an even crispier texture.
Italian Seasoning: This seasoning mix typically includes basil, oregano, thyme, and rosemary. Feel free to adjust the spices to suit your taste.
Garlic: Fresh minced garlic adds a great burst of flavor to the cheese topping, but you can use garlic powder in a pinch.
