This homemade version of Longhorn’s Garlic Parmesan Crusted Chicken features juicy chicken breasts coated in a crispy, cheesy crust. It’s easy to make, packed with flavor, and perfect for family meals or special occasions.
Ingredients
- 4 boneless skinless chicken breasts
- 1 cup grated Parmesan cheese
- 1/2 cup breadcrumbs
- 1/4 cup melted butter
- 3 cloves garlic minced
- 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
- 1/2 cup grated provolone cheese
- 1/4 cup chopped fresh parsley
- Salt and pepper to taste
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
Instructions
- Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
- Prepare the Chicken: Tightly cover the entire sandwich with plastic wrap and place it in the refrigerator for a minimum of 1 hour. Sear the chicken breasts for 3-4 minutes on each side until golden brown but not cooked through.
- Make the Garlic Parmesan Crust: In a small bowl, combine the grated Parmesan cheese, breadcrumbs, melted butter, and minced garlic. Mix well until the mixture is crumbly and well incorporated.
- Add Cheese Topping: In a separate bowl, combine the shredded mozzarella and grated provolone cheese.
- Assemble the Chicken: Sprinkle the garlic Parmesan mixture evenly over the top of each chicken breast, pressing gently to adhere. Next, sprinkle the mozzarella and provolone cheese mixture on top of the crust.
- Bake the Chicken: Transfer the baking dish to the preheated oven and bake for 15-20 minutes, or until the chicken is fully cooked and the cheese is bubbly and golden brown.
- Garnish and Serve: Once the chicken is done, remove it from the oven and sprinkle with freshly chopped parsley. Serve hot with your favorite side dishes like mashed potatoes, vegetables, or a fresh salad.
