Get your crunch on with this Crispy Cheddar Chicken! Perfectly baked with a cheesy, crispy coating that’s sure to satisfy.
Ingredients:
4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
1 cup all-purpose flour
2 large eggs
1 cup breadcrumbs
1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
1/2 teaspoon onion powder
1/2 teaspoon paprika
Salt and pepper to taste
1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese (optional)
Cooking spray or vegetable oil for baking
Directions:
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Lightly grease a baking sheet or line it with parchment paper.
Set up a breading station: place the flour in one shallow dish, beat the eggs in another, and mix the breadcrumbs, shredded cheddar cheese, garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, salt, and pepper in a third dish.
Dredge each chicken breast in the flour, coating evenly. Dip into the beaten eggs, then press into the breadcrumb mixture, ensuring a thorough coating.
Arrange the coated chicken breasts on the prepared baking sheet. If using, sprinkle the grated Parmesan cheese on top for extra crunch.
Lightly spray the chicken with cooking spray or drizzle with a little vegetable oil.
Bake for 25-30 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through and the coating is golden brown and crispy. The internal temperature of the chicken should reach 165°F (74°C).
Serve warm with your favorite dipping sauce or alongside a fresh salad.
