Instructions
Follow these easy steps to create your Chicken Romano:
1. Preheat Oven: Begin by preheating your oven to 375°F (190°C).
2. Prepare Chicken: Place the chicken breasts between two sheets of plastic wrap. Use a meat mallet to pound them to an even thickness, about ½ inch.
3. Set Up Breading Station: In three separate shallow bowls, place the flour, beaten eggs, and a mixture of breadcrumbs, Romano cheese, garlic powder, oregano, salt, and pepper.
4. Coat Chicken: First, dredge each chicken breast in flour, shaking off any excess. Next, dip it in the beaten eggs, and finally coat it with the breadcrumb mixture, pressing gently to adhere.
5. Heat Oil: In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat.
6. Cook Chicken: Add the coated chicken breasts to the skillet. Cook for 5-7 minutes per side, or until golden brown and cooked through.
7. Transfer to Oven: Once browned, transfer the chicken to a baking dish and bake in the preheated oven for 10-15 minutes to ensure they are fully cooked.
8. Garnish: Remove from the oven and sprinkle with fresh parsley for a burst of color.
9. Serve: Allow the chicken to rest for a few minutes before slicing. Serve with lemon wedges.
