 Ingredients List

  • 2 large chicken breasts
  • 1/2 cup Italian bread crumbs
  • 1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1 teaspoon oregano

 Directions

Preheat oven to 400 and grease a baking dish with nonstick cooking spray.

In a shallow dish, combine bread crumbs, cheese, salt, oregano, basil and pepper. Mix well.

In a separate shallow dish, add egg and beat well. Dip chicken into egg and coat on both sides, then dip into bread crumb mixture, turning to coat both sides.
