Ingredients

Scale

4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
1 cup freshly grated Parmesan cheese
1 cup panko breadcrumbs
2 large eggs
1 tsp garlic powder
Salt and pepper to taste

Instructions

Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C) and prepare a baking dish with nonstick spray.
Slice each chicken breast horizontally to create pockets, ensuring not to cut all the way through.
In one bowl, beat the eggs. In another bowl, mix panko breadcrumbs, Parmesan cheese, garlic powder, salt, and pepper.
Stuff each chicken pocket with the cheese mixture, dip into egg wash, then coat with breadcrumb mixture.
Place the coated chicken in the baking dish and bake for 25-30 minutes until golden brown and cooked through.
Allow to rest for a minute before serving; enjoy with marinara sauce or a fresh salad.
