Cooking Instructions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Chicken

    Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Season the chicken breasts with salt and black pepper. Set up a breading station with flour, beaten eggs, and breadcrumbs.

  2. 2

    Bread the Chicken

    Dredge each chicken breast in flour, dip it in the beaten eggs, and then coat it with breadcrumbs, ensuring an even layer.

  3. 3

    Fry the Chicken

    In a large skillet, heat olive oil over medium-high heat. Fry the breaded chicken cutlets for about 4-5 minutes on each side, or until golden brown. Remove and drain on paper towels.

  4. 4

    Assemble the Tray

    In a baking dish, spread a layer of house marinara sauce on the bottom. Place the fried chicken cutlets on top, then cover each cutlet with more marinara sauce.

  5. 5

    Add Cheese

    Sprinkle shredded mozzarella cheese and grated Parmesan cheese over the top of the chicken and marinara.

  6. 6

    Bake

    Bake in the preheated oven for 15-20 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly.

  7. 7

    Garnish and Serve

    Remove from oven, garnish with fresh basil if desired, and serve hot.
