For an extra crispy crust, broil the chicken for the last 2-3 minutes of cooking, keeping a close watch to prevent burning. Feel free to experiment with different cheeses! Monterey Jack, Colby, or a blend of Italian cheeses would also be delicious. If you don't have fresh Parmesan, the pre-grated kind will work in a pinch. Pounding the chicken ensures even cooking and a more tender result. Place the chicken between two sheets of plastic wrap to prevent tearing. Add a pinch of red pepper flakes to the breadcrumb mixture for a touch of heat.

Jul 1, 2021I've made this recipe several times, and it's always a hit! I sometimes use panko breadcrumbs for a crispier crust.
