Ingredients

Scale
  • 3–4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
  • 1 cup breadcrumbs (plain or Italian-seasoned)
  • 1 cup fresh mozzarella cheese, sliced
  • 2 cups marinara sauce
  • ½ cup grated Parmesan cheese
  • Olive oil for frying
  • Salt and pepper to taste

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
  2. Set up a breading station with three bowls: one with seasoned flour, one with beaten eggs, and one with breadcrumbs mixed with garlic powder.
  3. Dip each chicken breast into the flour, then the eggs, and coat thoroughly with breadcrumbs.
  4. Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium heat and sear the chicken until golden brown on both sides (about 4-5 minutes per side).
  5. Place the seared chicken in a greased baking dish. Spoon marinara sauce over each piece and top generously with mozzarella and Parmesan cheese.
  6. Bake for about 20 minutes until the cheese is bubbly and golden brown.
