How to Make Dill Pickle Parmesan Chicken
  1. Marinate the chicken in dill pickle juice for 30 minutes to 2 hours.
  2. Set up three bowls: one with flour, one with beaten eggs, and one with a mixture of panko, Parmesan, garlic powder, and dill.
  3. Dredge the marinated chicken: pat dry, coat in flour, dip in egg, and then coat with the breadcrumb mixture.
  4. Arrange the coated chicken on a wire rack placed over a baking sheet. Bake at 400°F (200°C) for 20-25 minutes, or air fry at 375°F for 15 minutes.

  6. Drizzle the sauce over the hot chicken and garnish with additional pickles and dill. Serve immediately.
