Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 boneless, skinless chicken breasts

  • 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
  • 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese
  • 1 egg
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil

Instructions

  2. Season both chicken breasts generously with salt and pepper.
  3. Dip each chicken breast in the egg, coating it well.
  4. Roll the coated chicken in breadcrumbs until fully covered.
  5. Heat the olive oil over medium heat in a skillet.

  7. Transfer the browned chicken to a baking dish.
  8. Pour marinara sauce over each chicken breast.
  9. Top with mozzarella and sprinkle Parmesan on top.
  10. Bake in the oven for 25-30 minutes until the chicken is cooked through and the cheese is bubbly.

Notes

For a lighter version, swap marinara with your favorite pasta sauce or use gluten-free breadcrumbs.
