- 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese
- 1/2 teaspoon dried Italian herb blend or pizza seasoning
- salt and freshly ground pepper to taste
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
- Cut the chicken into nugget-sized pieces, about 2 inches.
- Mix the egg and yogurt together in a shallow dish. Place another shallow dish next to it with the bread crumbs, Panko, Parmesan, herbs and salt and pepper mixed together.
- Dip a chicken piece in the egg-yogurt mixture, then transfer it to the crumb mixture and coat it thoroughly. Set on baking sheet. Repeat until all the chicken pieces have been breaded.
