Servings 4

Ingredients
  

  • 4 boneless skinless chicken breasts (pounded to even thickness)
  • ½ cup grated Parmesan cheese
  • 2 tablespoons butter melted
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 3 cloves garlic minced
  • 1 teaspoon Italian seasoning
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • ½ teaspoon black pepper
  • ¼ teaspoon paprika

Instructions
 

  • Preheat the oven to 425°F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  • In a small bowl, mix melted butter, olive oil, garlic, Italian seasoning, salt, pepper, and paprika.
  • Brush the chicken breasts with the garlic butter mixture, coating both sides evenly.
  • Sprinkle Parmesan cheese generously over the top of each chicken breast.
  • Place the chicken on the prepared baking sheet and bake for 15 minutes, or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F.
  • For extra crispiness, broil on high for 1-2 minutes until the cheese is golden brown.
  • Let the chicken rest for 5 minutes before serving.

Notes

For added crunch, mix crushed pork rinds with Parmesan before sprinkling on top.
Use pre-minced garlic or garlic powder for an even quicker prep.
Pair with roasted asparagus, mashed cauliflower, or a simple side salad for a complete meal.
