Creating Longhorn Steakhouse Parmesan Chicken is easier than you might think. Follow these detailed steps to achieve a delicious outcome:

1. Prepare Your Workspace: Gather all your ingredients. Set up a workstation with three bowls: one for flour, one for beaten eggs, and another for a mixture of Parmesan cheese, breadcrumbs, parsley, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and pepper.

2. Pound the Chicken: Place the chicken breasts between two sheets of plastic wrap or parchment paper. Use a meat mallet to pound them to an even thickness of about ¾ inch.

3. Season the Chicken: Lightly season each side of the chicken breasts with salt and pepper.

4. Dredge in Flour: Take one chicken breast and coat it in the flour, shaking off any excess.

5. Dip in Eggs: Next, dip the floured chicken breast into the beaten eggs, ensuring it’s fully covered.

6. Coat with Parmesan Mixture: Finally, press the coated chicken breast into the Parmesan mixture, making sure the entire surface is well covered.

7. Heat the Oil: In a large skillet, heat about ¼ inch of olive oil over medium heat until shimmering.

8. Fry the Chicken: Carefully place the coated chicken breasts into the hot oil. Cook for approximately 5-7 minutes on each side until golden brown and cooked through. You may need to work in batches to avoid overcrowding the pan.

9. Drain Excess Oil: Once cooked, transfer the chicken to a plate lined with paper towels to drain any excess oil.

10. Serve: If desired, warm up some marinara sauce for drizzling over the chicken. Garnish with fresh basil for an extra touch of flavor.
