Ingredients
Scale
2 large boneless, skinless chicken breasts
1 cup all-purpose flour
2 large eggs
1 cup breadcrumbs (panko or Italian-style)
½ cup grated Parmesan cheese (freshly grated)
1 teaspoon garlic powder
1 teaspoon dried oregano
1 teaspoon salt
½ teaspoon black pepper
2 cups marinara sauce (homemade or store-bought)
1½ cups shredded mozzarella cheese
Fresh basil leaves for garnish (optional)
Olive oil for frying
Instructions
Start by placing the chicken breasts between two pieces of plastic wrap and pound them to about ½ inch thick.
Set out three shallow bowls: one with flour, one with whisked eggs, and one with the breadcrumb mixture (breadcrumbs, Parmesan, garlic powder, oregano, salt, and pepper).
Coat the chicken in flour, then dip it in the egg, and finally coat it with the breadcrumb mixture.
Heat olive oil in a large skillet and fry the breaded chicken for 3-4 minutes on each side until golden brown.
Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C). Spread a thin layer of marinara sauce in a baking dish, place the fried chicken on top, spoon more sauce over, and sprinkle with mozzarella.
Bake for about 20 minutes until the cheese is melted and bubbly. Broil for an extra minute for a golden crust.
Let it sit for a few minutes, garnish with fresh basil, and serve hot.
