For an even crispier crust, lightly spray the breaded chicken with cooking oil before baking.
Feel free to experiment with different seasonings in the crushed onion mixture, such as garlic powder, paprika, or dried herbs.
Serve with a Dijon mustard sauce or a simple pan sauce made with chicken broth and a touch of cream for added richness.

    The chicken came out perfectly crispy and juicy. I served it with roasted asparagus, and it was a complete meal.

    I added a little garlic powder to the crushed onions, and it gave the chicken an extra boost of flavor. Definitely a keeper!
