  • Total Time: 15 minutes
  • Yield: 4 servings 1x

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 lb Chicken breast, cut into bite-sized pieces
  • 4 cloves Garlic, minced
  • 1 cup Breadcrumbs (use panko for extra crunch)
  • 1/2 cup Parmesan cheese, grated
  • 1 tsp Salt
  • 1/2 tsp Black pepper
  • 1/2 tsp Paprika, adds flavor and color
  • 2 Eggs, beaten
  • Olive oil, for frying (use a good-quality oil)

Instructions

  1. Mix breadcrumbs, Parmesan cheese, salt, pepper, and paprika in a bowl.
  2. Dip each chicken piece into the beaten eggs, then coat with the breadcrumb mixture evenly.
  3. Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium heat.
  4. Add the minced garlic and sauté until fragrant, about 30 seconds.

Notes

Use panko breadcrumbs for extra crunch. Ensure the olive oil is hot enough before adding the garlic to prevent burning.
