1. Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper or lightly grease it.

2. In a shallow bowl, whisk the beaten eggs.

3. In another bowl, combine panko breadcrumbs, Parmesan cheese, garlic powder, minced garlic, Italian seasoning, parsley, salt, and pepper.

4. Pat the chicken pieces dry with paper towels to remove excess moisture.

5. Dip each chicken piece into the egg mixture, then coat evenly with the breadcrumb mixture, pressing gently to adhere.

6. Place coated chicken pieces on the prepared baking sheet in a single layer, leaving space between each piece.

7. Drizzle or spray 1 tablespoon of olive oil over the coated chicken to promote browning.

8. Bake for 18–22 minutes, turning once halfway through, until golden brown and cooked through (internal temperature 165°F/74°C).

9. If desired, broil for 2–3 minutes for extra crispness, watching carefully to prevent burning.

10. Let the chicken bites rest for 2–3 minutes before serving with your choice of dipping sauces.
