Instructions
Creating the Longhorn Parmesan Crusted Chicken is simpler than you might think. Follow these steps for a delicious result:
1. Preheat the Oven: Start by preheating your oven to 375°F (190°C). Prepare a baking sheet by lining it with parchment paper.
2. Prepare the Breading Station: Set up three shallow bowls. In the first bowl, place the flour. In the second bowl, whisk together the eggs and Dijon mustard. In the third bowl, combine the breadcrumbs, Parmesan cheese, garlic powder, onion powder, oregano, smoked paprika, salt, and pepper.
3. Coat the Chicken: Begin by dredging each chicken breast in the flour, ensuring it’s fully coated. Shake off any excess flour.
4. Dip in Egg Mixture: Next, dip the floured chicken into the egg and mustard mixture, allowing the excess to drip off.
5. Coat with Breadcrumbs: Finally, press the chicken into the breadcrumb and cheese mixture, ensuring it’s well coated on all sides.
6. Prepare to Bake: Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Once hot, add the chicken breasts, cooking for about 2-3 minutes per side until golden brown.
7. Bake in Oven: Transfer the browned chicken to the prepared baking sheet. Place it in the preheated oven and bake for 20-25 minutes, or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F (75°C).
8. Garnish and Serve: Once baked, remove the chicken from the oven and let it rest for a few minutes. Garnish with fresh parsley.
With these straightforward steps, you’ll achieve a wonderful replica of Longhorn’s Parmesan Crusted Chicken!
