Method

Chicken Preparation

  1. 1

    Prepare Chicken

    Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C). Season the chicken breasts with salt and pepper. Dredge each chicken breast in flour, dip in beaten eggs, and then coat with bread crumbs.

  2. 2

    Fry Chicken

    In a large skillet, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add the breaded chicken breasts and cook until golden brown on both sides, about 5-7 minutes per side. Transfer to a baking dish.

Eggplant Preparation

  1. 3

    Prepare Eggplant

    Slice the eggplant into 1/2 inch thick rounds and sprinkle with salt. Let it sit for 30 minutes to draw out moisture. Rinse and pat dry.

  2. 4

    Bread and Fry Eggplant

    Dredge the eggplant slices in flour, dip in beaten eggs, and coat with bread crumbs. In the same skillet, add more olive oil if necessary and fry the eggplant slices until golden brown, about 3-4 minutes per side. Layer on top of the chicken in the baking dish.

Mushroom Marsala Sauce

  1. 5

    Make the Sauce

    In the same skillet, add a bit more olive oil if needed and sauté the mushrooms until browned, about 5 minutes. Add minced garlic and cook for another minute.

  2. 6

    Add Marsala Wine

    Pour in the Marsala wine and let it simmer for 2-3 minutes. Stir in the butter until melted and then add chopped parsley.

Assembly

  1. 7

    Assemble the Dish

    Pour the mushroom Marsala sauce over the layered chicken and eggplant in the baking dish. Top with shredded mozzarella cheese.

  2. 8

    Bake

    Bake in the preheated oven for about 25-30 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly. Serve hot.
