Prepare the chicken: Start by flattening the chicken breasts to an even thickness for consistent cooking. Use a meat mallet or rolling pin to pound the chicken to about ½ inch thick.

Bread the chicken: In a shallow bowl, mix flour, garlic powder, salt, and pepper. In another bowl, beat the eggs. In a third bowl, combine panko breadcrumbs and Parmesan cheese. Coat each chicken breast first in the flour mixture, then dip in the beaten eggs, and finally coat in the breadcrumb mixture.

Fry the chicken: Heat ½ inch of olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Once the oil is hot (350°F), carefully add the breaded chicken to the pan. Fry for 3-4 minutes on each side, or until golden brown and crispy.

Rest and serve: Remove the chicken from the skillet and place it on a wire rack to rest for 5 minutes. Serve with your favorite Alfredo sauce.
