Crispy baked parmesan crusted chicken topped with a bright and refreshing arugula salad - so good!! 🤤✨

Ingredients

Chicken

• 3 Boneless Skinless Chicken Breasts (~1 lb.)
• 1/2 Cup All Purpose Flour
• 2 Eggs, beaten
• 1/2 Cup Grated Parmesan
• 1/2 Cup Italian Breadcrumbs
• Salt & Pepper
• Olive Oil
• Lemon Wedges, for serving

Arugula Salad

• 3 Cups Arugula
• Red Wine Vinegar
• Olive Oil
• Salt & Pepper
• Grated Parmesan
• Shaved Parmesan, on top

Instructions

1. Preheat oven on convection to 425°F and spray a baking sheet with nonstick (convection will make the chicken crispier when baked).
2. Place chicken breasts one at a time in a large ziplock bag (or under a sheet of plastic wrap) and pound with a meat mallet until 1/3" thick; season each chicken breast with salt and pepper on both sides.
3. Set up your dredging station: place the flour in one large shallow bowl (or plate), the eggs in another, and the parmesan mixed with breadcrumbs in a third shallow bowl.
4. Coat the chicken in flour, then egg, then the parmesan breadcrumb mixture.
5. Place on a baking sheet, top with some additional parmesan and drizzle olive oil on each breast; bake on convection for 20-25 minutes until chicken is golden brown and internal temp reads 165°F.
6. Mix together the ingredients for the salad and serve it on top of the chicken; option to serve with lemon wedges on the side - enjoy!
