Instructions
Pre-heat oven to 400°F. Place a baking rack on a baking sheet and set aside.
In a bowl, beat together eggs and milk. Set aside
In another bowl, mix together the flour, cheese, parsley, onion powder, garlic powder, salt, and pepper.
Set up the stations in a line starting with wet mixture, the dry mixture, and the baking sheet at the end of the assembly line.
With your left hand dip chicken into the egg mixture. Transfer to your right hand and dip it in the breading. Press the breading into the chicken so it is evenly coated. Place chicken on the baking rack. Repeat with remaining chicken. Keeping one hand dry will be helpful to reduce sticking, and make the breading process more efficient.
Place chicken in the oven and bake for 20-22 minutes.
Remove chicken from the oven . The internal temperature of chicken should be at least 165°F. Allow to cool on the rack for 5 minutes.
