A comforting and indulgent Chicken Parmesan with a crispy breadcrumb crust, zesty marinara, and melted cheese, perfect for any occasion.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
  • 1 cup breadcrumbs
  • 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese
  • 1 cup marinara sauce
  • 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
  • 2 eggs
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • Olive oil for frying
  • Fresh basil for garnish (optional)

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) to ensure the perfect baking environment for our Chicken Parmesan.
  2. Season your chicken breasts generously with salt and pepper to bring out their natural flavors.
  3. Prepare the egg and breadcrumb mixture: In one bowl, beat the eggs until well mixed. In another bowl, combine your breadcrumbs and grated Parmesan cheese.
  4. Coat each seasoned chicken breast into the egg mixture, then transfer it to the breadcrumb mixture, coating fully for a crispy exterior.
  5. Fry the chicken for 3-4 minutes on each side until the crust is beautifully golden brown.
  6. Transfer the fried chicken to a baking dish, cover each piece with marinara sauce, and sprinkle mozzarella on top.
  7. Place the dish in your preheated oven and bake for 25-30 minutes, or until the cheese is bubbly and golden.
  8. Garnish your Chicken Parmesan with fresh basil before serving for an added touch of flavor.

Notes

For extra flavor, consider marinating the chicken in Italian herbs or spices before breading. Leftovers can be stored in an airtight container for up to 3 days.
