Follow The Directions
01
StepPreheat your oven to 425°F (220°C). Lightly grease a baking sheet. (5 minutes)
02
StepSeason the chicken cubes generously with salt and pepper. (2 minutes)
03
StepIn a shallow bowl, combine the dry bread crumbs and Parmesan cheese. Mix well. (1 minute)
04
StepIn a small saucepan, heat the olive oil over low heat for about 1 minute. Add the minced garlic and stir continuously until fragrant, being careful not to burn the garlic (about 30 seconds). Remove from heat.
05
StepDrizzle the garlic-infused oil over the seasoned chicken, ensuring each piece is lightly coated. Then, dredge each cube in the bread crumb and Parmesan mixture, pressing gently to adhere. Place the coated chicken onto the prepared baking sheet. (10 minutes)
06
StepBake in the preheated oven for 15-20 minutes, or until the chicken is golden brown, crispy, and cooked through. An internal temperature of 165°F (74°C) should be reached. (20 minutes)
