1/4 cup butter
1-2 cloves garlic, crushed
2 tbsp parsley (opt.)

In a shallow dish, combine breadcrumbs, Parmesan cheese, sesame seeds, flour, salt, and thyme or oregano. Heat oil and butter together, add garlic and sauté until garlic is golden. Remove from heat.

Check at least once during cooking; drizzle with butter if chicken becomes dry. If desired, sprinkle with parsley before serving.
