  3. Mix breadcrumbs, cheese, parsley, Italian seasoning, and pepper. Transfer to a flat plate.

  4. Dredge the chicken in flour, coating both sides. Dip chicken pieces in egg mixture, coating both sides. Dredge in breadcrumb mixture, coating completely on both sides. Set aside.

  5. Melt the butter in saucepan over medium heat. Add minced garlic and saute for 1 minute. Add flour and stir well until blended.
