- 1 cup breadcrumbs
- 2 eggs
- 1/2 cup flour
- Salt and pepper to taste
- Olive oil for frying
- Fresh parsley for garnish (optional)
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C).
- In a shallow bowl, mix the breadcrumbs and grated Romano cheese together.
- Season the chicken breasts with salt and pepper.
- Dredge each chicken breast in flour, then dip into beaten eggs, and finally coat with the breadcrumb and cheese mixture.
- Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat.
