A comforting dish featuring crispy chicken breasts coated with Parmesan and served with a rich Alfredo sauce.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
  • 1 cup grated Parmesan cheese
  • 1 cup breadcrumbs
  • 1/2 cup flour
  • 2 eggs, beaten
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • 1 cup heavy cream
  • 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese
  • 1/2 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
  • 3 cloves garlic, minced
  • 2 tablespoons butter
  • Fresh parsley, chopped (for garnish)

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. Season both sides of the chicken breasts with salt and pepper.
  3. Prepare three shallow bowls: one with flour, one with beaten eggs, and one with a mixture of grated Parmesan and breadcrumbs.
  4. Dredge each chicken breast in flour, dip it in the egg, then coat it in the Parmesan-breadcrumb mixture, pressing firmly to help it adhere.
  5. Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Sear each chicken breast for 2-3 minutes on both sides until golden brown.
  6. Transfer the seared chicken onto the lined baking sheet and bake for 15-20 minutes, or until the chicken is fully cooked and crispy.
  7. In the meantime, melt butter in a saucepan over medium heat and sauté the minced garlic for about 1 minute.
  8. Add the heavy cream, bringing it to a simmer for 3-4 minutes.
  9. Stir in the grated Parmesan and shredded mozzarella until melted and smooth. Adjust the seasoning with salt and pepper to taste.
  10. Serve the warm chicken drizzled with your creamy Alfredo sauce and garnish with fresh parsley.
