A classic Italian-American dish featuring breaded chicken breasts topped with marinara and mozzarella cheese, baked to perfection.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
  • 1 cup breadcrumbs
  • 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon Italian seasoning
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1 egg, beaten
  • 1 cup marinara sauce
  • 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
  • Fresh basil for garnish (optional)
  • Olive oil for frying

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
  2. Mix breadcrumbs, Parmesan cheese, garlic powder, Italian seasoning, salt, and pepper in a shallow dish.
  3. Dip each chicken breast into the beaten egg, allowing excess to drip off, then coat thoroughly with the breadcrumb mixture.
  4. In a large skillet, heat olive oil over medium heat, and fry the coated chicken breasts until golden brown, about 4-5 minutes on each side.
  5. Once browned, transfer the chicken to a baking dish. Top each piece with marinara sauce and sprinkle mozzarella cheese generously on top.
  6. Bake in the preheated oven for 15-20 minutes or until the chicken is cooked through and the cheese is bubbly.
  7. Garnish with fresh basil, if desired, before serving. Enjoy!

Notes

Store any leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3-4 days. Reheat in the oven or air fryer for best results.
