## Ingredients
- 1 lb chicken cutlets
- 1 large egg
- 1.5 cups buttery crackers
- 0.25 cup parmesan cheese
- 0.5 teaspoon garlic powder
- 0.5 teaspoon paprika
- 0.25 teaspoon kosher salt
- 0.25 teaspoon black pepper
- 1 tablespoon olive oil

## Cooking instructions
1. Heat the oven to 425°F. Line a baking sheet with parchment and lightly brush it with the olive oil. (about 5 min) (425°F)
2. Crush the crackers into fine crumbs. In a shallow bowl, mix the crumbs with Parmesan, garlic powder, paprika, salt, and pepper. (about 3 min)
3. Beat the egg in a second shallow bowl. Dip each chicken cutlet in the egg, letting the excess drip off, then press it into the cracker mixture until evenly coated. (about 5 min)
4. Arrange the coated cutlets on the prepared baking sheet, leaving space between them. Bake until the coating is golden and the thickest part of each cutlet reaches 165°F, 15 to 18 minutes. (about 18 min) (425°F)
5. Rest the cutlets for 3 minutes before serving. (about 3 min)
