Ingredients:
4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
1 cup grated Parmesan cheese
1/2 cup breadcrumbs
1 teaspoon garlic powder
1 teaspoon paprika
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon black pepper
2 tablespoons olive oil
1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
1 tablespoon fresh parsley, chopped (for garnish)
Directions:
I. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
II. In a shallow dish, combine the grated Parmesan cheese, breadcrumbs, garlic powder, paprika, salt, and black pepper.
III. Brush the chicken breasts with olive oil on both sides. Press each chicken breast into the Parmesan breadcrumb mixture, coating both sides evenly.
IV. Heat a large oven-safe skillet over medium heat and add a little more olive oil. Sear the chicken breasts for 2-3 minutes on each side, until golden brown.
V. Transfer the skillet to the preheated oven and bake for 15-20 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through.
VI. Remove the skillet from the oven and sprinkle the mozzarella cheese evenly over the chicken breasts. Return to the oven for an additional 5 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly.
VII. Garnish with fresh parsley and serve hot.
