Main Ingredients
Method
Preparation
- 1
Prepare the Chicken
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Season the chicken breasts with salt and black pepper on both sides.
- 2
Dredge the Chicken
Set up a dredging station with three shallow bowls: one with flour, one with beaten eggs, and one with a mixture of breadcrumbs and half the grated Parmesan cheese. Dip each chicken breast first in flour, shaking off the excess, then in the eggs, and finally in the breadcrumb mixture.
Cooking
- 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 per side, or until golden brown and cooked through. You may need to do this in batches.

Assemble the Dish
In a baking dish, spread 1 cup of marinara sauce on the bottom. Place the fried chicken breasts on top of the sauce, then spoon the remaining marinara sauce over each piece. Sprinkle with shredded mozzarella cheese and the remaining Parmesan cheese.

Bake
Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until the cheese is bubbly and golden.
