Method

Chicken Preparation

  1. 1

    Prepare Chicken

    Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Season the chicken breasts with salt and black pepper on both sides.

  2. 2

    Dredge Chicken

    Set up a dredging station with three plates: one with flour, one with beaten eggs, and one with breadcrumbs mixed with Parmesan cheese. Dredge each chicken breast in flour, dipping it into the eggs, and then coating it with the breadcrumb mixture.

  3. 3

    Pan-Fry Chicken

    In a large skillet, heat olive oil over medium heat. Fry the chicken breasts for about 4-5 minutes on each side until golden brown. Remove and set aside.

Sauce Preparation

  1. 4

    Cook Sauce

    In the same skillet, add a bit more olive oil if necessary. Sauté minced garlic until fragrant, about 1 minute. Add crushed tomatoes, oregano, basil, sugar, salt, and black pepper. Simmer for 10 minutes.

Assemble and Bake

  1. 5

    Assemble Dish

    In a baking dish, spread a thin layer of the sauce at the bottom. Place the fried chicken breasts on top, then cover each with more sauce. Sprinkle shredded mozzarella cheese on top of the chicken.

  2. 6

    Bake

    Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, until the cheese is melted and bubbly.

  3. 7

    Garnish and Serve

    Remove from the oven, garnish with fresh basil, and serve hot. Enjoy your Chicken Parmigiana!
