Notes

To achieve an even crispier coating, toast the breadcrumbs before mixing them with Parmesan. If you have leftovers, store them in an airtight container in the fridge for up to three days. Reheat in the oven for the best results. This dish can also be adapted to gluten-free by swapping regular flour and breadcrumbs with gluten-free alternatives.
