Ingredients
  

For the Chicken
  • 4 pieces boneless (skinless) chicken breasts (about 6 oz each)
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon paprika
  • 1 teaspoon Italian seasoning
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • ½ teaspoon black pepper
For the Parmesan Crust
  • ½ cup grated Parmesan cheese
  • ½ cup shredded provolone cheese (or mozzarella)
  • ¼ cup panko breadcrumbs
  • 3 tablespoons mayonnaise
  • 1 tablespoon sour cream
  • 1 tablespoon fresh parsley (chopped, optional for garnish)

Method
 

Preparation
  1. Pound the chicken breasts slightly so they cook evenly.
  2. Rub both sides with olive oil, garlic powder, paprika, Italian seasoning, salt, and pepper.
Cooking
  1. Heat a skillet or grill pan over medium-high heat and sear the chicken for 4–5 minutes per side until golden and cooked through (ensure an internal temperature of 165°F/74°C).
  2. Transfer the chicken to a baking dish.
Making the Parmesan Topping
  1. In a bowl, combine the mayonnaise, sour cream, Parmesan cheese, provolone cheese, and breadcrumbs.
  2. Stir until it forms a thick, spreadable mixture.
Finishing
  1. Preheat your oven broiler.
  2. Spread the cheesy mixture evenly over each piece of chicken and place it under the broiler for 2–3 minutes or until the top is bubbly and lightly golden.
  3. Garnish with fresh parsley if desired and serve hot.
