★Instructions

1. Prep the Chicken:

• Pound the chicken breasts to an even thickness (about 1/2 inch) for even cooking.

1. Prepare the Breading:

• In a shallow dish, mix the Parmesan cheese, panko breadcrumbs, garlic powder, Italian seasoning, salt, and pepper.
• In another shallow dish, place the flour.
• In a third shallow dish, beat the eggs with the milk.

1. Bread the Chicken:

• Dredge each chicken breast in the flour, shaking off any excess.
• Dip the chicken in the egg mixture, ensuring it is fully coated.
• Press the chicken into the Parmesan mixture, ensuring a thick, even coating.

1. Cook the Chicken:

• Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat.
• Add the chicken breasts and cook for 3-4 minutes on each side, or until golden brown and cooked through. (The internal temperature should reach 165°F or 74°C.)
• If the chicken browns too quickly, reduce the heat to medium.

1. Serve:

• Transfer the chicken to a plate lined with paper towels to drain any excess oil.
• Garnish with fresh parsley and serve with lemon wedges, if desired.

Enjoy!
