Instructions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).

Step 2

Place each chicken breast between plastic wrap and pound them to an even thickness. Season with salt and pepper.

Step 3

In three separate shallow dishes, place the flour in one, whisk the eggs in another, and combine the breadcrumbs with grated Parmesan cheese in the third.

Step 4

Dip each chicken breast into the flour, then the beaten eggs, and finally coat them with the breadcrumb mixture, pressing gently to adhere.

Step 5

In a large skillet, heat olive oil over medium-high heat. Fry the breaded chicken breasts for about 3-4 minutes per side, or until golden brown and cooked through. Place them on a paper towel-lined plate to remove excess oil.

Step 6

In a separate ovenproof dish, spread a thin layer of marinara sauce. Place the fried chicken breasts on top.

Step 7

Spoon more marinara sauce over each chicken breast, and sprinkle mozzarella cheese on top.

Step 8

Bake in the preheated oven for about 15-20 minutes, or until the cheese is bubbly and golden.

Step 9

Garnish with fresh basil leaves before serving. Enjoy your homemade Chicken Parmesan with your favorite pasta or as a sandwich!
