QUICK CRISPY PARMESAN CHICKEN BREASTS image

Number Of Ingredients 9

1/2 cup panko bread crumbs
1/3 cup Parmesan cheese
1/4 teaspoon paprika
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon ground black pepper
3 tablespoons butter, melted
2 teaspoons (optional) white wine
1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
1 clove garlic, crushed

Steps:

Preheat oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Line a baking sheet with greased aluminum foil.
Whisk bread crumbs, Parmesan cheese, paprika, salt, and black pepper together in a shallow bowl. Stir butter, white wine, mustard, and garlic together in another bowl.
Dip each chicken breast half into melted butter mixture; press into bread crumb mixture to evenly coat.
Place breaded chicken in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet. Pat any leftover bread crumb mixture onto chicken breasts.
Bake chicken in the preheated oven until no longer pink in the center and the juices run clear, about 20 minutes. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 165 degrees F (74 degrees C).
