Method

Chicken Preparation

  1. 1

    Prepare the Chicken

    Begin by seasoning the chicken breasts with salt and black pepper on both sides.

  2. 2

    Breading Station

    Set up a breading station with three shallow bowls: one with flour, one with beaten eggs, and the last with breadcrumbs.

  3. 3

    Breading the Chicken

    Dredge each chicken breast in flour, shaking off excess. Dip into the beaten eggs, then coat with breadcrumbs. Ensure an even coating.

  4. 4

    Fry the Chicken

    In a large skillet, heat olive oil over medium-high heat. Once hot, carefully add the breaded chicken breasts and fry for about 5-7 minutes on each side, until golden brown and cooked through. Remove from skillet and let drain on paper towels.

Sandwich Assembly

  1. 5

    Preheat Oven

    Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).

  2. 6

    Assemble the Sandwich

    Slice the baguette in half lengthwise. Place the fried chicken breasts on the bottom half of the baguette.

  3. 7

    Add Toppings

    Spoon tomato sauce generously over the chicken. Sprinkle shredded mozzarella and grated parmesan cheese over the sauce.

  4. 8

    Bake the Sandwich

    Place the sandwich on a baking sheet and bake in the preheated oven for about 10-12 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly.

  5. 9

    Finish and Serve

    Once out of the oven, top with fresh basil leaves, cover with the top half of the baguette, slice into portions, and serve hot.
