Instructions

Preheat the oven to 425F.

Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper.

Combine the panko, Parmesan, dried parsley, and salt in a shallow dish.

In a separate shallow dish, mix together the mayonnaise and mustard.

Dredge each chicken breast in the mustard mixture, then coat with the panko mixture. Transfer the chicken breast to the prepared baking sheet. Repeat with the remaining chicken breasts.

Bake chicken on middle rack of oven for 7 minutes.

Carefully flip each chicken breast. Continue baking until the thickest part of the chicken breasts reaches an internal temperature of 165°F, about 7 minutes.

Check to see that chicken is done. Remove from oven or add time as needed.

Allow the chicken to rest for 5 minutes before serving.

Tips & Tricks (5)

Panko Crunch Secret 🥣
Toast the panko breadcrumbs in a dry skillet for 2-3 minutes before coating to enhance their golden color and add extra crispiness.
Mustard Moisture Magic 💦
Use Dijon mustard as a flavor-packed adhesive that helps the breading stick better and adds a tangy depth to the chicken.
Uniform Coating Technique 🧤
Create an assembly line with three shallow dishes: one for flour, one for mustard-mayo mixture, and one for the panko-Parmesan blend to ensure even, consistent coating.
Cheese Browning Pro Tip 🧀
Mix a small amount of grated Parmesan directly into the panko for more even browning and a more integrated flavor profile.
Resting Rack Trick 🍽️
Place cooked chicken on a wire rack instead of directly on a plate to prevent the bottom from getting soggy and maintain maximum crispiness.
