  3. Dip each chicken breast into the egg, then coat with the breadcrumb mixture, pressing it on to adhere.
Cooking

  2. Cook for 3-4 minutes on each side until golden brown.
  3. Transfer the chicken to a baking sheet and bake in the preheated oven for about 15-20 minutes or until the chicken is cooked through.

Notes

Serve with a side salad or pasta. Drizzle with lemon juice for a refreshing zing. Store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for 3-4 days or freeze for up to 3 months.
