  • 2 large eggs beaten
  • 3/4 tsp garlic salt divided plus additional
  • 1/4 tsp black pepper
  • 3 Tbsp whole milk
  • 1 cup Panko breadcrumbs
  • 2/3 cup grated Parmesan cheese
  • 1 tsp lemon pepper
  • 1 tsp onion powder
  • 1/2 tsp dry Italian seasoning
  • 1/4 cup butter or light butter melted
