Step-by-Step Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and grease a baking sheet with cooking spray or olive oil.
- Combine finely chopped dill pickles with dill pickle juice in a mixing bowl and let it sit for about 5 minutes.
- In another bowl, crack the eggs and beat them until blended, then add the pickle mixture and stir.
- In a third bowl, mix panko breadcrumbs, grated Parmesan cheese, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, black pepper, and optional cayenne pepper until evenly distributed.
- Dip each chicken breast into the egg mixture, then coat with the breadcrumb mixture, pressing down to ensure an even layer.
- Place the coated chicken breasts on the baking sheet, lightly spray the tops with cooking spray or drizzle with olive oil.
- Bake for 25-30 minutes until the internal temperature reaches 165°F (75°C) and the coating is golden brown.
- Let the chicken rest for a few minutes before serving.

Notes
For even crunchiness, ensure a thorough coating of breadcrumbs and consider using a baking rack for better airflow while baking.
