For an extra layer of flavor, consider adding a pinch of red pepper flakes to the bread crumb mixture for a subtle kick. Freshly grated Parmesan cheese makes a noticeable difference in the overall taste and texture. Don't overbake the chicken, or it will become dry. Use a meat thermometer to ensure it reaches the perfect internal temperature. If you want a crispier coating, lightly spray the breaded chicken with cooking oil before baking.
