Method

Preparation of Chicken

1

Prepare the Chicken

Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C). Pat the chicken breasts dry with paper towels. Season both sides with salt and black pepper.

2

Dredge the Chicken

Set up a breading station with three shallow bowls: one with flour, one with beaten eggs, and one with breadcrumbs mixed with grated Parmesan cheese. Dredge each chicken breast in flour, shaking off excess, then dip in the eggs, and finally coat with the breadcrumb mixture.

3

Fry the Chicken

In a large skillet, heat olive oil over medium heat. Once hot, add the breaded chicken breasts and cook for about 4-5 minutes on each side until golden brown. Transfer the chicken to a baking dish.

Making the Sauce

4

Cook the Sauce

In the same skillet, add olive oil over medium heat. Add minced garlic and sauté for about 1 minute until fragrant. Pour in crushed tomatoes, oregano, basil, sugar, salt, and black pepper. Stir to combine and let it simmer for about 10 minutes.

5

Combine Sauce and Chicken

Pour the tomato sauce evenly over the fried chicken in the baking dish.

Final Assembly

6

Add Toppings

Sprinkle shredded mozzarella cheese evenly over the sauce-covered chicken. Add fresh basil leaves on top.

7

Bake

Bake in the preheated oven for about 25-30 minutes until the cheese is melted and bubbly.

8

Serve

Remove from the oven and let cool for a few minutes before serving. Enjoy your homemade Chicken Parmesan!
