Instructions

Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C).
Mix Parmesan cheese and breadcrumbs in a bowl.
Season chicken breasts with salt and pepper.
Dredge each chicken breast in the Parmesan-breadcrumb mixture until fully coated.

While the chicken bakes, melt butter in a saucepan over medium heat. Add garlic and sauté for 1–2 minutes until fragrant.
Drizzle the garlic butter sauce over the baked chicken.
Garnish with chopped fresh parsley and serve immediately.

Add a splash of lemon juice to the garlic sauce for a bright twist.
