Cooking Instructions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Eggplant

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

  2. 2

    Prepare the Chicken

    Pound the chicken breasts to an even thickness. Season with salt and pepper.

  3. 3

    Bread the Chicken

    Dredge each chicken breast in flour, dip in beaten eggs, and set aside.

  4. 4

    Cook the Eggplant

    In a large skillet, heat olive oil over medium heat. Fry the eggplant slices until golden on both sides. Remove and drain on paper towels.

  5. 5

    Cook the Chicken

    In the same skillet, add more olive oil if necessary. Fry the breaded chicken cutlets until golden brown and cooked through, about 4-5 minutes per side. Remove from skillet.

  6. 6

    Assemble the Dish

    Layer each chicken cutlet with fried eggplant, prosciutto, mushrooms, and mozzarella cheese in a baking dish.

  7. 7

    Add Marsala

    Pour the Marsala wine over the assembled chicken and toppings.

  8. 8

    Bake

    Bake in a preheated oven at 375°F (190°C) for 20-25 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly.

  9. 9

    Serve

    Garnish with fresh parsley and serve hot.
