Tips:

  • Use boneless, skinless chicken breasts: This will ensure that the chicken cooks evenly and quickly in the microwave.
  • Pound the chicken breasts to an even thickness: This will help them cook evenly.
  • Season the chicken breasts with salt and pepper, and then dredge them in flour: This will help the Parmesan cheese and bread crumbs adhere to the chicken.
  • Use a shallow dish that is large enough to hold the chicken breasts in a single layer: This will help the chicken cook evenly.
  • Microwave the chicken breasts on high power for 2-3 minutes per side, or until they are cooked through: The cooking time will vary depending on the thickness of the chicken breasts.
  • Top the chicken breasts with Parmesan cheese and bread crumbs, and then microwave them on high power for 1-2 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly: Be careful not to overcook the chicken at this point.
  • Serve the chicken breasts immediately: They are best enjoyed hot and crispy.
