  • Total Time: 30 minutes

Ingredients

Scale
  • 4 boneless chicken breasts
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • 1/2 cup all-purpose flour
  • 2 eggs, beaten
  • 1 cup grated parmesan cheese
  • 1 cup panko breadcrumbs
  • 3 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 cup heavy cream
  • 2 tablespoons butter
  • Fresh parsley, chopped (for garnish)

Instructions

  1. Preheat your skillet over medium-high heat.
  2. Pound chicken breasts to an even thickness and season with salt and pepper.
  3. Set up three stations: one for flour, one for beaten eggs, and one for a mixture of parmesan cheese and panko breadcrumbs.
  4. Dredge each chicken breast in flour, dip into eggs, then coat with the parmesan-panko mixture.
