Preparation

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.

Breading Process
Set up a breading station with three shallow dishes: one with flour, one with beaten eggs, and one with breadcrumbs. Dredge each piece of chicken in flour, shaking off excess. Dip into beaten eggs, then coat with breadcrumbs, pressing gently to adhere.

Fry the Chicken
In a large skillet, heat olive oil over medium-high heat. Once hot, add the breaded chicken breasts and cook for about 4-5 minutes on each side until golden brown. Remove from skillet and place on a paper towel-lined plate to drain excess oil.

Assemble the Dish
Spread 1 cup of marinara sauce on the bottom of a baking dish. Arrange the fried chicken breasts on top of the sauce. Spoon the remaining marinara sauce over the chicken. Sprinkle with shredded mozzarella and grated parmesan cheese.
