Ingredients

Scale
  • 34 boneless, skinless chicken breasts (about 1.5 lbs)

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. In a shallow bowl, mix the grated Parmesan cheese and panko breadcrumbs with salt and pepper. Dip each chicken breast in olive oil then coat with the Parmesan mixture.

  4. Arrange the coated chicken on one side of the baking sheet and the seasoned vegetables on the other.
  5. Bake for about 25-30 minutes until the chicken reaches an internal temperature of 165°F (74°C) and is golden brown.
  6. Serve warm, optionally drizzled with balsamic glaze.
