Parmesan Crusted Chicken
Tender, juicy chicken coated in buttery Parmesan breadcrumbs with a hint of Dijon mustard and Worcestershire sauce. Baked until golden and crispy, it's an easy family-favorite dinner.
Ingredients
- ½ cup unsalted butter melted
- 2 teaspoons Dijon or spicy brown mustard
- 1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
- ½ cup seasoned breadcrumbs
- ½ cup panko breadcrumbs
- ½ cup grated Parmesan cheese
- 6 boneless, skinless chicken breast halves
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 375°F. Lightly grease a 9-by-13-inch baking dish with cooking spray.
- In a shallow bowl, combine the melted butter, mustard, and Worcestershire sauce.
- In a separate shallow dish, combine the seasoned breadcrumbs, panko, and Parmesan cheese.
- Dip each chicken breast into the butter mixture, allowing any excess to drip off.
- Coat the chicken evenly in the breadcrumb mixture, pressing gently so the coating adheres.
- Arrange the chicken in a single layer in the prepared baking dish.
- Lightly drizzle any of the remaining butter mixture over the chicken
- Bake uncovered for approximately 25–35 minutes, depending on the thickness of the chicken, until golden and the thickest part reaches an internal temperature of 165°F.
- Allow the chicken to rest for a few minutes before serving.
Notes
Our favorite sides are chunks of russet potatoes tossed in ranch seasoning and olive oil and finished in the air fryer and a simple helping of green beans.
