Description
A quick and easy Parmesan Crusted Chicken Sheet Pan Dinner that combines juicy chicken breasts with roasted vegetables for a delicious meal.
Ingredients
Scale
- 2 large boneless, skinless chicken breasts (about 1 pound total)
- 1 cup grated Parmesan cheese
- 1 cup panko breadcrumbs
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon onion powder
- 1 teaspoon Italian seasoning
- Salt and pepper to taste
- 2 cups broccoli florets
- 1 cup cherry tomatoes, halved
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
- 1 teaspoon dried basil (optional)
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 400°F. Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper for easy cleanup.
- In a shallow bowl, combine the Parmesan cheese, panko breadcrumbs, garlic powder, onion powder, Italian seasoning, salt, and pepper. Mix well.
- Pat the chicken breasts dry with paper towels. Dip each chicken breast into the breadcrumb mixture, pressing gently to adhere the coating evenly on both sides.
- Place the coated chicken breasts on one side of the prepared baking sheet.
- In a mixing bowl, toss the broccoli florets and cherry tomatoes with olive oil, lemon juice, salt, and pepper. Spread the vegetables on the other side of the baking sheet.
- Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through (internal temperature of 165°F) and the vegetables are tender.
- For extra crispiness, broil the chicken for an additional 2-3 minutes at the end of cooking.
- Let the chicken rest for a few minutes before slicing. Serve with the roasted vegetables on the side.
Notes
- For added flavor, consider marinating the chicken in lemon juice and olive oil for 30 minutes before coating.
- You can also substitute the broccoli with asparagus or green beans for a different vegetable option.
