PREPARATION

• 1

  Preheat your oven to 400°F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper for easy cleanup.

  In a separate shallow dish, mix the panko breadcrumbs, parmesan cheese, garlic powder, oregano, sea salt, and black pepper.

  Dip the chicken breast into the egg wash, then press it firmly into the breadcrumb mixture to coat both sides thoroughly.

  Place the coated chicken on the prepared baking sheet and drizzle the olive oil over the top.
