Instructions

Pat chicken breasts dry with paper towels. Season both sides with salt and pepper.

Place the grated Parmesan cheese on a shallow plate.

Press each chicken breast firmly into the Parmesan cheese, ensuring both sides are fully coated.

Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat.

Carefully place the chicken breasts in the hot skillet. Cook for 5-7 minutes per side, or until golden brown and cooked through (internal temperature of 165°F/74°C).

Remove from skillet and let rest for a few minutes before serving.
