Set up a breading station with three shallow bowls: one with flour, one with beaten eggs, and one with bread crumbs mixed with half of the grated Parmesan cheese.

Bread the Chicken
Dredge each chicken breast in flour, shaking off the excess, then dip into the beaten eggs, and finally coat with the breadcrumb mixture. Ensure each piece is well-coated.

Fry the Chicken
In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium-high heat. Add the breaded chicken breasts and fry until golden brown on both sides, about 4-5 minutes per side.

Assemble the Dish
Once the chicken is cooked, place them in a baking dish. Spoon marinara sauce over each piece and top with the remaining Parmesan cheese and shredded mozzarella cheese.

Bake
Bake in the preheated oven for about 20 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly.
