Method

Chicken Preparation

  1. 1

    Prepare the Chicken

    Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Season the chicken breasts with salt and pepper.

  2. 2

    Dredge in Flour

    Coat each chicken breast in flour, shaking off any excess.

  3. 3

    Egg Wash

    Beat the eggs in a shallow bowl. Dip the floured chicken breasts in the egg, ensuring they are fully coated.

  4. 4

    Coat with Breadcrumbs

    In another shallow bowl, mix the breadcrumbs with grated Parmesan cheese. Dredge the egg-coated chicken breasts in the breadcrumb mixture, pressing to adhere.

  5. 5

    Fry the Chicken

    In a large skillet, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add the breaded chicken breasts and cook for about 4-5 minutes on each side until golden brown. Remove from skillet and place on a baking sheet.

Marinara Sauce

  1. 6

    Sauté Garlic

    In the same skillet used for the chicken, add olive oil and garlic. Sauté over medium heat until fragrant, about 1 minute.

  2. 7

    Add Tomatoes and Seasonings

    Pour in the crushed tomatoes, oregano, basil, salt, pepper, and sugar. Bring to a simmer and cook for 15-20 minutes, stirring occasionally.

Assembly

  1. 8

    Assemble the Dish

    Once the marinara sauce is ready, spoon a generous amount over each chicken breast. Top with shredded mozzarella cheese.

  2. 9

    Bake

    Transfer the baking sheet with the chicken to the preheated oven and bake for 15-20 minutes, or until the cheese is bubbly and golden.

  3. 10

    Serve with Linguine

    While the chicken is baking, cook the linguine according to package instructions. Drain and serve alongside the chicken parmesan.
