Cooking Instructions
Prepare the Chicken
Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C). Season the chicken breasts with salt and pepper on both sides.
Breading the Chicken
Set up a breading station: beat the eggs in one bowl, combine the bread crumbs and Parmesan cheese in another. Dip each chicken breast in the egg, then coat with the bread crumb mixture.
Fry the Chicken
In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the breaded chicken breasts and cook until golden brown, about 4-5 minutes per side.
Assemble the Dish
Place the browned chicken breasts on a baking sheet. Spoon marinara sauce over each piece, then top with mozzarella cheese.
Bake
Bake in the preheated oven for 15-20 minutes, until the cheese is melted and bubbly.
Garnish and Serve
Remove from the oven, garnish with fresh basil if desired, and serve hot.
