Baked Breaded Chicken

Step 1

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).

Step 2

Lightly grease a 9x13 inch baking dish.

Step 3

Season chicken breasts liberally with salt and pepper on both sides. Set aside.

Step 4

In a pie tin or shallow dish, mix together the bread crumbs, Parmesan cheese, basil, oregano, and pepper.

Step 5

In a separate pie tin mix together olive oil and garlic with paprika.

Step 6

Dip each chicken breast in the oil mixture, then in the bread crumb mixture. Press the bread crumbs to the chicken so each breast is coated fully.

Step 7

Arrange the coated chicken breasts in the prepared baking dish, and top with any remaining bread crumb mixture and oil.

Step 8

Bake 30-35 minutes in the preheated oven, until internal temperature of the chicken reaches 165 degrees, or until chicken is no longer pink and juices run clear.
