Ingredients Method Notes

Ingredients

For the Chicken

1 pound chicken breasts
1 cup dill pickle juice For marinating the chicken
1 cup crushed dill pickles For coating the chicken
1 cup grated Parmesan cheese Adds flavor and crunch
1 teaspoon garlic powder For seasoning
1 teaspoon onion powder For seasoning
Salt and pepper to taste
Olive oil spray For coating the baking sheet

Method

Preparation

Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
In a medium bowl, soak the chicken breasts in dill pickle juice for at least 30 minutes.
In a separate bowl, mix together crushed dill pickles, Parmesan cheese, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and pepper.
Remove the chicken from the pickle juice and pat it dry with paper towels.
Coat the chicken breasts in the dill pickle and Parmesan mixture, pressing firmly to adhere.
Place the coated chicken on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper and spray lightly with olive oil.

Cooking

Bake the chicken for 25-30 minutes, or until golden brown and cooked through (internal temperature should reach 165°F or 75°C).
Let the chicken rest for a few minutes before slicing and serving.

Notes

For extra crunch, consider double coating the chicken by dipping it in egg before coating it with the dill pickle and Parmesan mixture. Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
