Chicken Parm Recipe

Cooking Instructions

1. 1

   Prepare the Chicken

   Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Place the chicken breasts between two pieces of plastic wrap and pound them to an even thickness. Season both sides with salt and black pepper.

2. 2

   Set Up Breading Station

   Set up a breading station with three shallow dishes: one with flour, one with beaten eggs, and one with a mixture of breadcrumbs and grated Parmesan cheese.

3. 3

   Bread the Chicken

   Dredge each chicken breast in flour, shaking off the excess. Dip into the eggs, then coat with the breadcrumb mixture, pressing gently to adhere.

4. 4

   Cook the Chicken

   In a large oven-safe skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the breaded chicken breasts and cook for about 3-4 minutes on each side until golden brown.

5. 5

   Add Marinara and Cheese

   Pour marinara sauce over the chicken in the skillet. Sprinkle mozzarella cheese on top. Transfer the skillet to the preheated oven and bake for 20-25 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through and the cheese is bubbly.

6. 6

   Garnish and Serve

   Remove from the oven and let it cool for a few minutes. Garnish with fresh basil if desired, then serve hot with your choice of pasta or salad.
