Ingredients

Instructions

  • Prepare. Preheat your oven to 375°F and pour your melted butter into your baking dish.
  • Dredging Station. You will need two shallow bowls. In the first bowl, place your buttermilk. The second bowl should contain your panko breadcrumbs, grated parmesan cheese, and seasonings. Use a whisk to combine together the ingredients in the second bowl.
  • Dredge. Use a fork to dip the first chicken breast into the buttermilk, coating it entirely. Tap excess buttermilk off of the chicken back into the bowl. Then press the chicken into the second bowl, coating it with the dry ingredients. Lastly, place the chicken breast into your baking dish and repeat the process with the remaining chicken.
  • Bake. Sprinkle the shredded cheese over the chicken and bake it for 25-30 minutes or until the chicken is cooked through and the coating is golden and crispy.
  • Rest. After taking the chicken out of the oven allow it to rest for five minutes before serving for the crust to set.
