  • 1 tsp garlic powder
  • 1 tsp smoked paprika
  • 1/2 tsp sea salt
  • 1/2 tsp black pepper

  1. Preheat oven to 400 degrees Fahrenheit and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. In a shallow bowl, whisk the eggs.
  3. In a separate bowl, combine panko breadcrumbs, parmesan cheese, garlic powder, paprika, salt, and pepper.
  4. Dip each chicken piece into the egg wash, ensuring it is fully coated, then dredge in the breadcrumb mixture, pressing firmly to adhere.
  5. Arrange chicken pieces in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet, leaving space between each bite.
  6. Lightly drizzle or spray the chicken with olive oil.
  7. Bake for 15 to 20 minutes, flipping halfway through, until the internal temperature reaches 165 degrees Fahrenheit and the coating is golden brown.
  8. Remove from oven and let rest for 3 minutes before serving.
