Ingredients
Main Ingredients
Preparation
1. Prepare the Chicken
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Take the chicken breasts and place them between two pieces of plastic wrap. Use a meat mallet or rolling pin to gently pound them to an even thickness of about 1/2 inch.
2. Season the Chicken
Sprinkle both sides of each chicken breast with salt and black pepper. Ensure even coverage for flavor.
3. Set Up Breading Station
In three separate shallow dishes, place the flour, beaten eggs, and bread crumbs mixed with grated Parmesan cheese. Dredge each chicken breast in flour, shaking off the excess, then dip in the egg, and finally coat with the bread crumb mixture.
Cooking
4. Fry the Chicken
In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Once hot, add the breaded chicken breasts. Cook for about 4-5 minutes on each side, or until golden brown and cooked through. Remove the chicken and place it on a paper towel-lined plate to drain excess oil.
5. Assemble the Dish
In a baking dish, spread a thin layer of marinara sauce on the bottom. Place the fried chicken breasts on top of the sauce. Spoon additional marinara sauce over each piece of chicken, then top with shredded mozzarella cheese.
6. Bake
Place the baking dish in the preheated oven and bake for 20-25 minutes, or until the cheese is bubbly and golden brown.
Serving
7. Serve
Remove the Chicken Parmesan from the oven and let it cool for a few minutes. Serve hot with a side of pasta or a fresh salad.
