Ingredients
Scale
4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
1 cup breadcrumbs (Panko works great for extra crunch!)
1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese
1 teaspoon garlic powder
1 teaspoon dried oregano
1 teaspoon dried basil
1 jar (24 oz) marinara sauce
2 cups shredded mozzarella cheese
Salt and pepper to taste
Olive oil spray or your favorite cooking oil
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
If your chicken breasts are thick, consider butterflying or pounding them to an even thickness.
In a shallow dish, mix together the breadcrumbs, Parmesan, garlic powder, oregano, basil, and a pinch of salt and pepper. Coat each chicken breast in the breadcrumb mix.
Spray a baking dish with olive oil and arrange the breaded chicken inside, giving it space.
Bake for about 25-30 minutes until the chicken is cooked through and golden brown (internal temperature should be 165°F).
Remove the chicken from the oven, spoon marinara sauce over each piece, and top with mozzarella cheese.
Return to the oven for another 10-15 minutes until the cheese is bubbly and golden.
Let it rest for a few minutes before serving.
