Instructions
To make the chicken
- Preheat oven to 425˚F.
- Toss the thin chicken cutlets in the Italian dressing and set aside while you prepare the crumb mixture.
- In a medium bowl, mix the panko bread crumbs, parmesan cheese, butter, Italian seasoning, garlic powder, and salt together. Toss until everything is evenly distributed in the mixture.
- Lay the chicken cutlets flat on a baking sheet, avoiding transferring excess Italian dressing to the pan. Spoon the panko crumb mixture over the top of each chicken breast to coat.
- Bake for 18-22 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through (165˚F internal temp)
To prepare the tomato basil topping
- While the chicken bakes, cut the cherry tomatoes in quarters or smaller. Mix with the chopped basil and salt.
- Once the chicken is done cooking, spoon the tomato basil topping over each chicken breast and serve immediately.
