Pound the chicken to 1/2″ thickness using a meat mallet or rolling pin.

Combine melted butter, olive oil and paprika in a shallow bowl. In another shallow bowl, combine panko breadcrumbs, garlic powder, Italian seasoning, Parmesan cheese, parsley, salt and pepper. Do a taste test and adjust seasonings to taste.

Dip the chicken in the butter, then dredge through the seasoned breadcrumbs. Pat in any excess breadcrumbs for maximum coverage.

Transfer chicken to a baking tray lined with foil or parchment paper and spray the top of the chicken with cooking spray.

Bake at 425°F for 18-20 minutes or until the crust is golden brown and internal temperature reads 165°F.

Remove and let it rest for 5 minutes before serving.

Enjoy!
