Chicken Milanese
Chicken Milanese is an Italian famous dish, thinly sliced chicken are dredged in egg and parmesan cheese breadcrumbs and then pan-fried until crispy.
This recipe is my twist on this classic Italian dish. I didn’t use the breadcrumbs to make chicken parmesan keto and gluten free. And I baked it with veggies to have a complete dinner. So you don’t need to stand near the stove to deep fry the breaded chicken and later waste time to make a side dish. Sounds good? And believe me, the whole family will gobble up the entire sheet in minutes. It is seriously good!
oven baked chicken
The healthiest way to cook chicken breasts is to bake them in the oven. It is always a great alternative to deep-fried chicken if you are trying to lose weight.
However, some people are skeptical about baking chicken because it can become dry if not baked correctly. If you are one of them, don’t be! The egg wash and parmesan coating will seal the moisture inside the chicken. It will be juicy and absolutely delicious!
how to make oven baked chicken Milanese
- Combine egg, minced garlic, dried parsley, lemon juice, salt and pepper. Marinate chicken in the egg mixture for 15 minutes.
- Mix together almond flour, parmesan cheese and Italian seasoning. You can substitute almond flour with bread crumbs if desired.
- Dredge each chicken breast in parmesan mixture.
- Bake in the oven for 25-30 minutes or until the internal temperature reaches 165˚F (74˚C). Chicken Milanese will be juicy and will have crispy edges if cooked correctly. If you like dark meat, use chicken thighs instead.
Pan sheet dinner
Who doesn’t like effortless pan sheet dinner? It is perfect for busy weeknights. Roasted potatoes and green beans go really well with Chicken Milanese. Make sure to use BABY potatoes otherwise they might be still hard when chicken is done. For a low carb dinner, substitute potatoes with cauliflower or broccoli. Other options:

- Mushrooms
- Sweet potatoes.
This is going to be a huge hit at the dinner table because it is outrageously good! The entire family will love it!
