Ingredients

Servings:4
  • 2 large boneless, skinless chicken breasts
  • 1/2 cup all-purpose flour
  • 2 pieces large eggs
  • 1 cup Italian seasoned breadcrumbs
  • 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese
  • 1/4 cup olive oil
  • 2 cups marinara sauce
  • 1 1/2 cups shredded mozzarella cheese
  • 4 leaves fresh basil leaves(optional)
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder

Instructions

  1. 1

    Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and lightly grease a baking dish.

  2. 2

    Slice chicken breasts in half horizontally to create four thin cutlets, then pound them to an even 1/2-inch thickness.

  3. 3

    Set up three shallow bowls: one with flour and garlic powder, one with beaten eggs, and one with a mix of breadcrumbs and half of the Parmesan.

  4. 4

    Dredge each chicken piece in flour, dip in the egg wash, and then coat thoroughly with the breadcrumb mixture, pressing firmly to adhere.

  5. 5

    Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat and fry the chicken for 3-4 minutes per side until golden brown and crispy.

  6. 6

    Spread a thin layer of marinara sauce on the bottom of the baking dish and arrange the fried chicken on top.

  7. 7

    Top each chicken breast with the remaining marinara sauce, shredded mozzarella, and the rest of the Parmesan cheese.

  8. 8

    Bake for 15-20 minutes until the cheese is bubbly and slightly browned, then garnish with fresh basil before serving.
