A delightful twist on classic chicken thighs, featuring a crispy parmesan crust and a burst of flavor in every bite.
Preheat your oven to 375°F and prepare a baking sheet by lining it with foil and placing a wire rack on top.
Using a wire rack ensures even cooking and prevents the chicken from becoming soggy.
In a shallow dish, whisk together the eggs and milk, seasoning with a pinch of salt and pepper.
Ensure the egg mixture is well-blended for even coating.
In another shallow dish, combine the panko breadcrumbs, parmesan cheese, Italian seasoning, and seasoning salt.
Mix thoroughly to evenly distribute the flavors.
Dip each chicken thigh into the egg mixture, then press into the breadcrumb mixture to coat thoroughly. Place the coated chicken on the prepared rack.
Press the breadcrumbs firmly onto the chicken for a better crust.
Lightly spray the chicken with olive oil spray to help achieve a golden crust.
Spraying evenly ensures a consistent golden color.
Bake in the preheated oven for 30 minutes, or until the chicken reaches an internal temperature of 170°F.
Use a meat thermometer to ensure the chicken is cooked through.
Serve the chicken hot, garnished with fresh herbs if desired, and enjoy!
Pair with a side of roasted vegetables or a fresh salad for a complete meal.
