Instructions
- Preheat oven to 375°F and spray 2 large baking dishes with nonstick spray.
- In a small shallow bowl, stir together the beaten eggs and heavy cream.
- In another small shallow bowl, stir together the parmesan, breadcrumbs, paprika, salt, and pepper.
- Dip each piece of chicken in the egg mixture, coating both sides completely. Shake off excess and then dip into the parmesan mixture, pressing down to fully coat the entire chicken with a thick layer.
- Arrange chicken in prepared baking dishes, making sure they don't touch (if they touch, those sections won't get crispy).
- Pour melted butter over all the chicken.
- Cook for approximately 50 minutes, or until the chicken reaches an internal temperature of 165°F.
- Serve garnished with fresh oregano or thyme.
Notes
- Storage: Store parmesan crusted chicken in an airtight container in the refrigerator for 3 days, or freeze for 3 months.
