Description

Indulge in this crispy, cheesy, and flavorful Longhorn Steakhouse-inspired Parmesan Chicken. Perfectly golden chicken breasts coated in a crunchy breadcrumb mix and topped with tangy marinara sauce make this dish a must-try!


Ingredients

Scale
  • 4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
  • 1 cup panko breadcrumbs
  • ½ cup grated Parmesan cheese
  • 2 eggs, beaten
  • ½ cup all-purpose flour
  • 1 tsp garlic powder
  • 1 tsp onion powder
  • 1 tsp dried oregano
  • Salt and pepper, to taste
  • Vegetable or peanut oil, for frying
  • Marinara sauce, for serving

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Station : Set up three shallow bowls—one for flour, one for beaten eggs, and one for the breadcrumb mixture (combine panko, Parmesan, garlic powder, onion powder, oregano, salt, and pepper).
  2. Coat the Chicken : Dredge each chicken breast in flour, shaking off excess. Dip it in the egg, ensuring full coverage, then press firmly into the breadcrumb mixture. Repeat if desired for extra crunch.
  3. Heat the Oil : In a large skillet, heat enough oil over medium-high heat until shimmering but not smoking. Test by dropping a small piece of breadcrumb—it should sizzle immediately.
  4. Fry the Chicken : Carefully place the coated chicken in the hot oil, working in batches. Cook for 5–7 minutes per side, flipping once, until golden brown and cooked through.
  5. Drain and Serve : Transfer the fried chicken to a paper towel-lined plate to absorb excess oil. Let it rest briefly before serving with warm marinara sauce for dipping.

Notes

For a healthier option, bake the chicken at 400°F (200°C) for 20–25 minutes instead of frying.
Double-coating the chicken ensures maximum crunchiness.
Garnish with fresh parsley or basil for added color and flavor.
