- Set up the breading station by adding the flour to the first bowl, the beaten egg to the second bowl and the breadcrumbs to the third bowl. Optionally stir in 1 tsp of dried spices or herbs to the breadcrumbs.
- Roll the chicken in the flour until it is covered, then dip it in the beaten egg, followed by rolling each piece through the breadcrumbs until they are covered.

- Put the tray in the preheated oven for 10 to 15 minutes, turning halfway, until the breadcrumbs have turned golden and the chicken is cooked all the way through.
