  • 1 cup grated Parmesan cheese
  • 1 cup breadcrumbs
  • 2 eggs
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 cup heavy cream
  • Salt and pepper to taste

  3. In another dish, beat the eggs until frothy.
  4. Season chicken breasts with salt and pepper to taste.
  5. Dip each chicken breast into the egg mixture, allowing excess to drip off, then coat in the Parmesan mixture.
