1½ tsp dried basil

1 tsp dried oregano

½ tsp salt

½ tsp garlic powder

1 ground red pepper, pinch

8 chicken breast halves, boneless, cut into ½-inch strips

Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.

In a pie plate or platter, combine the breadcrumbs, Parmesan, thyme, basil, oregano, salt, garlic powder and red pepper.

Dip the chicken strips in the melted butter, then dredge them in the breadcrumbs mixture.
