Description
Crispy Dill Pickle Parmesan Chicken is a flavorful dish with a crunchy coating.
Ingredients
Scale
- 4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
- 1 cup dill pickle juice
- 1 cup breadcrumbs (preferably panko)
- ½ cup grated Parmesan cheese
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon onion powder
- ½ teaspoon black pepper
- ½ teaspoon paprika
- 2 large eggs
- ¼ cup all-purpose flour
- Cooking spray or olive oil for drizzling
Instructions
- Place the chicken breasts in a bowl and pour the dill pickle juice over them. Cover and refrigerate for at least 1 hour, or up to overnight for maximum flavor.
- Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper for easier cleanup.
- In a shallow dish, combine the breadcrumbs, grated Parmesan cheese, garlic powder, onion powder, black pepper, and paprika. Mix well to combine.
- In another bowl, whisk the eggs. In a third shallow dish, place the all-purpose flour.
- Take each marinated chicken breast and first dredge it in the flour, shaking off any excess. Next, dip it in the beaten eggs, allowing the excess to drip off, and finally coat it in the breadcrumb mixture, pressing gently to adhere.
- Place the coated chicken breasts on the prepared baking sheet. Lightly spray or drizzle with olive oil to help achieve a golden color.
- Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes or until the chicken is cooked through and the crust is crispy and golden brown. The internal temperature should reach 165°F (75°C).
- Once cooked, remove the chicken from the oven and let it rest for a few minutes before serving.
