Ingredients for 100 Parmesan Chicken

How to Make 100 Parmesan Chicken

  1. Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C).
  2. Lightly grease a 13x9 inch baking pan with non-stick cooking spray.
  3. In a shallow dish, melt 4 tablespoons of butter.
  4. In a separate shallow dish, combine 1 cup grated Parmesan cheese, 1/2 cup bread crumbs, 1 teaspoon garlic powder, 1/2 teaspoon onion powder, 1/4 teaspoon paprika, and salt and pepper to taste.
  5. Dip each chicken breast in the melted butter, ensuring it's fully coated.
  6. Dredge the buttered chicken breasts in the Parmesan breadcrumb mixture, pressing gently to adhere.
  7. Arrange the coated chicken breasts in the prepared baking pan.
  8. Bake for 20-25 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through and the juices run clear. Internal temperature should reach 165°F (74°C).

Chef's Tip for Extra Flavor

Chef's secret: layers of flavor make a dish truly memorable! Consider what a little extra something could bring – perhaps a touch of acidity like a good vinegar or citrus zest, a hint of smokiness from paprika, a bit of umami from mushrooms or soy sauce, or a sprinkle of toasted nuts for texture. Experiment and taste as you go!
