    Ingredients You'll Need

    1. Original Bisquick Mix - Baking mix makes the process much easier and is needed to coat/dredge the chicken in and helps to give it that nice crispy texture.
    2. Italian Seasoning - Adds spice and seasoning to the chicken.
    3. Parmesan Cheese - Helps to thicken the mixture to dip the chicken in to coat it and gives it a nice slightly salty flavor.
    4. Eggs - Two large egg is needed to help the batter stick to the chicken and not fall apart.
    5. Chicken Breasts - Needed to make any chicken parmesan recipe. I prefer to use flat boneless skinless for this recipe.
    6. Olive Oil - Use any cooking oil that you prefer. I prefer to use olive oil for this particular recipe.
    7. Pasta Sauce - Needed to finish off the chicken parmesan and serve it with pasta. Use your favorite sauce or make your own.
    8. Italian Cheese Blend - You want to use shredded cheese for this. Grab classic or low-fat and it will provide the perfect cheesy topping to the chicken that you're looking for.

    See the recipe card below for exact ingredient quantities.

    Step By Step Instructions

    Begin this recipe by grabbing a shallow dish or pie plate. Mix together the Bisquick mix, Italian seasoning, and Parmesan cheese until combined. In another separate shallow dish or pie plate, beat eggs.

    ingredients needed to make chicken parm

    Coat the chicken breast with the Bisquick mixture, then dip each piece into the egg, and place it back into the Bisquick mixture again to coat it and make it extra crispy. In 12-inch non-stick skillet, heat oil over medium-high heat. Add the prepared chicken to the heated oil for about 4 to 6 minutes, turning once. Continue cooking until slightly golden brown.
