Baked Parmesan Chicken

(Prep Time: 10 minutes. Baking Time: 60 minutes)

1 Tablespoon olive oil
2 cups seasoned bread crumbs
¾ cup grated parmesan cheese
1 teaspoon paprika
1 teaspoon each salt and freshly grated black pepper
½ cup (1 stick) butter
4-6 boneless, skinless chicken breasts or thighs

Preheat the oven to 350°. Line a 13 x 9 x 2” baking dish with foil and spread the olive oil over the foil. Combine the bread crumbs, parmesan cheese, paprika, salt and pepper in a shallow pie plate. Place the butter in another shallow pie plate and melt in the microwave. Taking one piece of chicken at a time, dip both sides of the chicken in the butter, then in the breadcrumbs. Lay the chicken on the foiled lined baking dish. Pour any remaining butter on top of the chicken. Bake 45-60 minutes depending on the thickness of the chicken or until done.
