Crispy Broccoli Cheddar Melt Chicken

chicken breasts, ((I like thin-sliced breasts))

kosher salt and pepper

garlic powder

eggs, (lightly beaten)

broccoli florets

olive oil

Preheat oven to 400 degrees F. Spray a 9x13 inch pan with nonstick spray.

Season the chicken breasts all over with garlic powder, salt and pepper. Place the eggs in one bowl and the breadcrumbs in another bowl. Dip each piece of chicken in the egg and then in the breadcrumbs, pressing gently so they adhere to the chicken. Place each chicken breast in the baking dish - do not overlap them!

Once the chicken is in the dish, stick it in the oven. Bake it for 10 to 12 minutes.

While the chicken is baking, place the broccoli in a glass bowl. Drizzle with 2 tablespoons of water. Microwave the broccoli for 2 minutes. This helps to steam the broccoli so it can cook quicker in the oven.

Drain the broccoli and drizzle it with the olive oil, then sprinkle with salt and pepper and garlic powder.

Remove the dish from the oven. Gently flip the chicken. Top with three quarters of the cheese. Add the broccoli on top. Sprinkle on the remaining cheese.

Bake another 10 to 12 minutes, or until the internal temperature of the chicken is 165 degrees F.

Remove the chicken from the oven. Slice and serve!

I'm getting ready to make this for the second time in a week.  This was a big hit with all four of my kids (10,8,5,2) so tonight I'm going to make rotini pasta to serve with it.  Thank you for an easy, delicious meal my whole family enjoys!

Just came across your YouTube channel. Love it! Awesome content, very knowledgeable and health conscious. Tried three of the recipes and I and my family enjoyed each one of them. Looking forward to more videos. Very impressive young lady.
