This is the easiest and quickest way to get crispy baked chicken schnitzel on the table. This recipe does more than cut out the frying time … it cuts down the coating time, too! Usually, you need to coat the chicken in something first to allow the bread crumbs to stick, and then add the crumb coating. Not anymore. This schnitzel is a one-step process. Coat and bake. It’s ready faster than you can say dinner done! If you don’t want to use sesame seeds, add the equivalent quantity of bread crumbs.
1 and 1/2 – 2 pounds skinless boneless chicken breasts, cut into strips
1 – 1 and 1/4 cups homestyle bread crumbs, such as Gefen
1/2 cup oil
1/2 cup sesame seeds
3/4 teaspoon salt
dash black pepper
4 cloves garlic, crushed
Preheat oven to 425 degrees Fahrenheit. Line two baking sheets with parchment paper.
In a bowl or Ziploc bag, combine bread crumbs, oil, sesame seeds, salt, pepper, and garlic. Place chicken pieces into bread crumb mixture, turning to coat chicken well.
Place chicken strips on prepared baking sheets, making sure they aren’t too close together. Coat with nonstick cooking spray. Cover chicken with foil. Bake, covered, for 10 minutes. Uncover; bake for an additional 10-14 minutes, until edges are golden and chicken is cooked through.

Best recipe
made this but it came out really pail! any idea why?
Did you uncover the chicken for the last 15 minutes of cooking so it can brown?
Yum
Baking once frozen I had some extras the last time I made this and froze some raw.
What’s the best way to bake these- defrost first or bake right away-and for how long?
Thanks!
I would bake them right away straight from the freezer onto a baking sheet lined with parchment. I would follow the baking instructions in the recipe- 425F for 10-14 minutes.
Freezing shnitzel can I freeze these and reheat them for a friday night meal? thanks
Hi, I would recommend breading them and baking them fresh. They come out crispies and fresher
This is the perfect recipe when you want something easy, fast, and absolutely delicious.
So good and easy to make!
Best! Quick, easy and Delish!!
Delicious, not dry even though its oven baked. I leave out the garlic whenever I don’t have and there isn’t much of a difference
Delicious and easy, flavorful and crispy. Yum!!
