- In another shallow dish, whisk together eggs and milk.
- In a third shallow dish, combine panko breadcrumbs and Parmesan cheese.
- Pat chicken dry with a paper towel.
- Set up assembly line to coat chicken in this order: flour, eggs, panko. First dredge chicken in the flour mixture, then in the eggs and then coat with the panko/Parmesan mixture. Once coated, arrange on the prepared baking sheet.
- Spray tops of chicken with nonstick cooking spray.
