How to Make Alfredo Oven Fried Chicken

  1. Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. In a shallow dish, whisk together the beaten egg, garlic powder, oregano, salt, and pepper.
  3. In a separate shallow dish, combine the panko bread crumbs and Parmesan cheese.
  4. Dip each chicken piece into the egg mixture, ensuring it's fully coated.
  5. Then, dredge the chicken in the panko mixture, pressing gently to adhere.
  6. Place the breaded chicken pieces on the prepared baking sheet, leaving some space between each piece.
  7. Drizzle olive oil over the chicken.
  8. Bake for 25-30 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through and the breading is golden brown and crispy.
  9. Serve immediately with extra Parmesan cheese and a side of your favorite vegetables. Enjoy!

Chef's Tip for Extra Flavor

Want to unlock deeper, more complex flavors? Try toasting your whole spices before grinding them, or blooming ground spices in a little warm oil to enhance their aroma. Deglazing your pan with a bit of stock, wine, or even water after browning ingredients can capture those tasty caramelized bits, adding richness to your dish.
