Ingredients

• 6 pieces Boneless, skinless chicken thighs
• 1 cup All-purpose flour
• 2 teaspoons Garlic powder
• 1 teaspoon Onion powder
• 1 teaspoon Dried oregano
• 1 teaspoon Salt
• 1 teaspoon Black pepper
• 2 None Eggs
• 0.25 cup Milk
• 1 cup Italian-style breadcrumbs
• 0.5 cup Parmesan cheese, finely grated
• 4 tablespoons Unsalted butter
• 0.5 cup Alfredo sauce
• 2 tablespoons Chopped fresh parsley (for garnish)

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or lightly spray it with nonstick cooking spray.

Step 2

In a shallow dish, combine the all-purpose flour, garlic powder, onion powder, oregano, salt, and black pepper.

Step 3

In a second shallow dish, whisk together the eggs and milk to create an egg wash.

Step 4

In a third shallow dish, mix the breadcrumbs and grated Parmesan cheese.

Step 5

Pat the chicken thighs dry with a paper towel. Dredge each piece in the flour mixture, ensuring it is evenly coated, then dip it into the egg wash, and finally press it into the breadcrumb mixture to coat thoroughly. Set aside on a plate.

Step 6

Melt the butter in a small microwave-safe dish, then pour half of it onto the prepared baking sheet.

Step 7

Arrange the coated chicken thighs in a single layer on the baking sheet. Drizzle the remaining melted butter over the chicken pieces.

Step 8

Bake the chicken in the preheated oven for 15 minutes. Flip each piece over and bake for an additional 15-20 minutes, or until the chicken is golden brown and reaches an internal temperature of 165°F (74°C).

Step 9

While the chicken is baking, gently heat the Alfredo sauce in a small saucepan over low heat until warm.

Step 10

Once the chicken is done, transfer it to a serving platter. Drizzle warm Alfredo sauce over the chicken or serve it on the side as a dipping sauce.

Step 11

Garnish with freshly chopped parsley before serving. Enjoy your crispy Alfredo Oven Fried Chicken!
