Oven Baked Crispy Chicken Breast with Herbs Delight

The key to a crispy chicken breast is in the coating. I use breadcrumbs and cheese for crunch. Here’s how to make it:

1. Preheat the oven. Set it to 400°F (200°C). This step is important for even cooking.

2. Prepare the breadcrumbs. In a large bowl, mix these ingredients:

- 1 cup plain breadcrumbs

- 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese

- 2 tablespoons fresh parsley, chopped

- 1 tablespoon fresh thyme, chopped

- 1 tablespoon fresh rosemary, chopped

- 1 teaspoon garlic powder

- 1 teaspoon onion powder

- 1 teaspoon paprika

- Salt and pepper to taste

This mix gives the chicken great flavor and a nice crust.

3. Make the egg wash. In another bowl, beat 2 large eggs and add 1 tablespoon olive oil. This mixture helps the breadcrumbs stick to the chicken.

4. Coat the chicken. Take each chicken breast and dip it in the egg wash first. Let any extra egg drip off. Then, coat it in the breadcrumb mix. Press down gently to make sure the crumbs stick well.

5. Bake the chicken. Place the coated chicken breasts on a lined baking sheet. Bake for 25-30 minutes. You’ll know it’s done when the chicken is cooked through and the coating is golden and crispy.

6. Rest before serving. Let the chicken rest for 5 minutes after taking it out of the oven. This helps keep it juicy.

For a nice touch, serve the chicken on a platter. Add extra herbs and lemon wedges for color. It pairs well with roasted veggies or a fresh salad. Enjoy your crispy chicken delight!
