Ingredients
3 boneless, skinless chicken breast halves1 large egg1 Tbsp Olive Oil (I used Extra Virgin for nutritional info.)1 Tbsp Water1/2 cup bread crumbs1 Tbsp wheat bran1/4 tsp dried parsley1/4 tsp dried oregano1/4 tsp ground black pepper1/2 tsp onion powder1 tsp garlic powder2 Tbsp grated parmesan cheese1/2 cup shredded cheddar cheese
Directions
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees.
Whisk the egg, olive oil and water together in a shallow bowl to make an egg wash.
In another shallow dish (I use a pie plate) combine the bread crumbs, spices and cheeses.
Dip the chicken in the egg bath and then into the crumb mixture. (you can dip into the eggs again and back into the crumb mixture if you want a thicker coating. I generally only dip once.)
Place the chicken breasts into a baking dish and place the extra bread crumbs on top of the chicken if desired.
Bake for 30 to 45 minutes (until juices run clear.)

This recipe makes 3 chicken breast halves = 3 servings.

Tip: For crispier bottoms put a thin layer of regular bread crumbs in the baking pan before placing chicken in. These extra crumbs are not in the nutritional info.
