Prep Time 10 minutes
Cook Time 25 minutes
Marinate Time 30 minutes
Total Time 1 hour 5 minutes

Ingredients

  • 2 large boneless, skinless chicken breasts, sliced lengthwise
  • ½ cup dill pickle juice
  • 1 cup freshly grated Parmesan cheese
  • ½ cup panko breadcrumbs
  • 1 teaspoon dried dill
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • ½ teaspoon onion powder
  • ½ teaspoon paprika
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • ¼ teaspoon black pepper
  • 2 large eggs
  • Cooking spray or olive oil spray

Instructions

  1. Marinate the Chicken
    Place chicken in a bowl or zip-top bag. Pour in pickle juice, cover, and marinate for 30 minutes. Remove chicken and pat dry with paper towels.
  2. Prepare the Coating
    In a shallow bowl, combine Parmesan cheese, panko breadcrumbs, dried dill, garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, salt, and black pepper.
  3. Bread the Chicken
    Whisk eggs in a separate bowl. Dip each chicken piece into the egg mixture, then press firmly into the Parmesan mixture to fully coat.
  4. Bake the Chicken
    Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or foil. Place chicken on the sheet and lightly spray with cooking spray.
  5. Cook Until Crispy
    Bake for 22–25 minutes, flipping halfway through, until chicken is golden brown and reaches an internal temperature of 165°F (74°C).
  6. Rest and Serve
    Let chicken rest for 5 minutes before serving.

Notes

  • Do not over-marinate; pickle juice can make chicken too salty if left too long.
  • Freshly grated Parmesan creates the crispiest crust.
  • For extra crunch, broil for 1–2 minutes at the end of baking.
  • Air Fryer Option: Cook at 375°F for 12–15 minutes, flipping halfway.
  • Serve with ranch dressing, roasted vegetables, or a fresh salad.
