Description

This Longhorn Steakhouse Parmesan Chicken recipe delivers a crispy, cheesy, and flavorful chicken breast coated with a golden Parmesan crust. Topped with mozzarella, garlic, and Parmesan cheese, this dish is perfect for a restaurant-style dinner at home.

Ingredients

For the Chicken Coating:

4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
½ cup all-purpose flour
2 large eggs
¼ cup milk
1 cup bread crumbs (or gluten-free alternative)
½ cup freshly grated Parmesan cheese
1 teaspoon Italian seasoning
½ teaspoon salt
¼ teaspoon black pepper

For Searing:

2 tablespoons olive oil

For the Cheese Topping:

½ cup freshly grated Parmesan cheese
1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
2 cloves garlic, minced

Instructions

1. Preheat the Oven & Prepare the Baking Dish

Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C).
Lightly grease a baking dish with olive oil to prevent sticking.

2. Prepare the Coating Mixtures

In a shallow dish, add flour for dredging.
In another dish, whisk together eggs and milk.
In a third dish, mix bread crumbs, Parmesan cheese, Italian seasoning, salt, and pepper.

3. Coat the Chicken

Dredge chicken breasts in flour, coating evenly. Shake off excess.
Dip the chicken into the egg mixture, coating both sides.
Press into the Parmesan-bread crumb mixture, ensuring a full coating.

4. Sear the Chicken

Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat.
Sear chicken for 3-4 minutes per side, until golden brown.

5. Add the Cheese Topping

In a small bowl, mix Parmesan, mozzarella, and garlic.
Sprinkle over each chicken breast generously.

6. Bake the Chicken

Transfer seared chicken to the prepared baking dish.
Bake for 20-25 minutes, or until internal temperature reaches 165°F (74°C).
If cheese browns too quickly, loosely cover with foil.

7. Serve & Enjoy!

Let chicken rest for 5 minutes before serving.
Garnish with fresh parsley and serve with mashed potatoes, veggies, or pasta.

Notes

For extra crispiness, double-dip the chicken in the egg and breadcrumb mixture.
To make it gluten-free, use gluten-free breadcrumbs.
For a healthier version, bake instead of searing or use an air fryer at 375°F for 12-15 minutes.
