Ingredients
Scale
- 4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts

- 1 teaspoon Italian seasoning
- Salt and pepper to taste
- 2 large eggs
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- Fresh parsley, chopped (for garnish)

Instructions
- Marinate the chicken by seasoning with garlic powder, onion powder, Italian seasoning, salt, and pepper. Allow to sit for at least 30 minutes.
- Prepare the coating by combining breadcrumbs and grated Parmesan cheese in one bowl and whisking the eggs in another.

- Serve the chicken with sides and garnish with fresh parsley before enjoying.
