Sheet Pan Crispy Parmesan Garlic Chicken
This sheet pan chicken is crunchy on the outside and juicy on the inside. It is a complete dinner made all on one pan. A full meal with just one dish to wash? Sign me up! Life can get so busy, and I love a quick and easy meal for my family during the week, especially on the busiest nights.
Crispy parmesan garlic chicken is one of my family’s favorite meals. The chicken is dredged in eggs and seasoned breadcrumbs not only adding in delicous flavor but creating that delicous and golden outside edge. Then you add in the potatoes and veggie of your choice ( I am partial to roasted asparagus). It is so yummy, you will always want to add this to your dinner rotation!
Ingredients in Sheet Pan Garlic Chicken
These ingredients are simple and help this chicken come together so quickly. You can check out the recipe card at the bottom of the post for all of the exact ingredient measurements.
- Chicken breasts: Juicy and tender chicken breasts serve as the main protein in this dish.
- Salt and pepper: Essential seasonings that enhance the flavors of the chicken and vegetables.
- Eggs: I always use large eggs when cooking.
- Milk: I used 1 percent milk in this recipe.
- Panko breadcrumbs: Light and crispy Japanese-style breadcrumbs that provide a satisfying crunch to the chicken.
- Parmesan cheese: This adds a rich and savory flavor to the breadcrumb coating.
- Italian seasoning: You can use storebought but I like to use my homemade Italian seasoning.
- Garlic powder: Adds a delicious garlicky taste to the chicken.
- Baby potatoes: Small and tender potatoes roasted to perfection are a delicious and hearty side dish.
- Asparagus: Fresh and vibrant green vegetables that complement the chicken with their crisp texture and earthy taste.
- Olive oil: Used to toss the potatoes and asparagus, adding a touch of richness and helping them roast evenly.
How to Make Sheet Pan Chicken
Baked to perfection, the chicken turns golden and crispy, while the vegetables become beautifully caramelized. It’s so easy to prepare and packed yummy ingredients, everyone wil love it!
- Prep: Preheat the oven to 425 degrees Fahrenheit. Spray a sheet pan with cooking spray or line it with parchment paper. Set aside
- Set up a dredging station: Whisk together egg and milk in a shallow dish. Add panko, parmesan cheese, Italian seasoning, and garlic powder in another shallow dish.
- Coat chicken: Salt and pepper the chicken. Dredge them in the egg mixture and then coat them in the panko mixture. Lay them on your sheet pan.
- Prepare vegetables: In two medium-sized bowls, add the asparagus and potatoes. Salt and pepper and toss with the olive oil. Lay the potatoes next to the chicken on the sheet pan.
- Bake: Bake for 15 minutes. Flip the chicken over, add the asparagus, and continue baking for 12-15 minutes or until the chicken reaches an internal temperature of 165 degrees Fahrenheit.
Can you make this crispy parmesan chicken in a skillet?
You can definitely cook this in the skillet. Add two tablespoons oil to a medium-sized skillet. Add the chicken to the pan and cook on each side for about 3-4 minutes until the outside is crispy and the chicken is cooked throughout.
Can you make this chicken in an air fryer?
Yes! I love cooking things in an air fryer, especially chicken ( try out this delicious and classic chicken recipe if you really want to test out the best of the best!). You can cook this chicken in an air fryer at 380 degrees Fahrenheit for about 12 minutes, flipping the chicken halfway through.
Storing Leftovers
This sheet pan garlic chicken makes delicious leftovers! After eating it the first night then, you can have the same thing for lunch tomorrow or even chop up this chicken and add it to a yummy salad.
- In the Refrigerator: After your chicken and potatoes have cooled, place them in an airtight container and store them in your fridge. They will last for 2-3 days.
- To Reheat: Preheat the oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit. Place the chicken and veggies in a 9×12 baking dish and add 2 tablespoons of water to the dish. Cover it with foil and cook for 10-15 minutes or until the internal temperature reaches 165 degrees Fahrenheit.

I would definitely do only about 3/4 cup each of panko and parmesan. i might have cut my red skin potatoes too large but they needed about 50 minutes to roast at 425. the asparagus i used was very thick and was perfectly done at the same time as the chicken, after 40 minutes (20 for each side of the chicken breasts). it was a delicious recipe but i wish i had done a few things differently! would definitely make the chicken again, a lemon garlic cream sauce would be delicious with this.
Tasty and easy
Wow this recipe looks amazing. Thank you for sharing this amazing recipe.
This came out really good! I agree with previous reviews and the panko, Parmesan, eggs & milk could be cut in half. I threw a lot of ingredients out because there was just too much left over. Great meal, though! Will definitely make again!
Could you substitute green beans instead of the asparagus?
Yes, great idea!
I tried this recipe for the first time this evening. It was delicious! It didn’t take long to prepare & I had all the necessary ingredients on hand. I will be adding it to my recipe rotation.
That is great to hear! I am so glad that it worked out so well! Thank you so much for sharing! XOXO
This sounds so good ,I must try this on some friends . thank you
Is this recipe for boneless chicken breasts?
Yes, boneless chicken breasts. Enjoy your chicken! XOXO
I used boneless, skinless thighs and it was great!
I used broccoli instead of asparagus and Asiago cheese in lieu of parm. This is delicious and I love how it gets crisp.
My family enjoyed this dish although the amount of breadcrumb mixture could easily be cut in half!
Chicken was truly delicious, and veggies perfectly cooked. But……………the amounts of panko and parmesan cheese called for in the recipe were way way way too much! Four cups for 4 chicken breasts? Crazy. I made 4 boneless chicken breasts (2.33 lbs.) and I threw out most of the bread crumbs and valuable shredded cheese. Will definitely make it again but use much less breadcrumbs and cheese.
I put half parmesan bread crumbs mix in a baggie or separate bowl and toss potatoes & veggies in it. Delicious!!! Family requests often. Also good with Ranch Dry Mix added!
Alice I totally agree, way too much panic and part. I thought it was a lot but only after dredging the chicken did I realize I was going to throw away 3/4 of the mix, very wasteful. Dinner is in the oven now, hoping it will taste good. Perhaps the recipe could be adjusted to reflect setting aside 1/2-3/4 of the panko/parm mixture for later or veggies before raw chicken is dreaded.
Mine is in the oven right now but I agree! It didnโt even occur to me how much it was until I started coating first chicken breast – by then it had raw stuff in it so wasnโt comfortable saving it for something else. One cup of each wouldโve been plenty, and when I watched the video thatโs how much it seemed she was using. Just dumped valuable ingredients. ๐ Hope it is good!
Panko are light, flakey breadcrumbs made from white bread only (no crusts). Regular breadcrumbs and be substituted. (They are not a ‘brand’ but a style of breadcrumbs that originated in Japan.)
hey girl- this dish looks so yummy!
I made this last night and it was delicious! I have never tried the oven baking method before but will definitely try it again in the future.
That is great to hear! I am so glad that you enjoyed it! Thank you so much for sharing! XOXO
Hi Alyssa,
In the recipe for Crispy Parmesan Garlic Chicken, you state to use “2 cups of Panco”
I live in Ireland and have never come across PANCO before,
what is it or more importantly what can I substitute it with?
Great recipes, keep it up!
David
PANCO are bread crumbs. If you have anything similar to that, that would be great! Panco is a brand here in America. You can always just use flour if you don’t like that texture. Hope that helps! Thanks so much for following along with me from Ireland!! XOXO
You can also use potato flakes…instant potatoes in place of panco.
Thank you for explaining all the options; I’ll stick to sheet pan ! Thank you so much !
