Ingredients:
4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
1 cup all-purpose flour
2 large eggs
1 cup grated Parmesan cheese
1 cup panko breadcrumbs
1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
1/2 teaspoon onion powder
1/2 teaspoon dried basil
1/2 teaspoon dried oregano
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon black pepper
1/4 cup olive oil
1 cup marinara sauce
1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
Fresh parsley, chopped for garnish
Directions:
Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C) and lightly grease a baking dish.
Set up a breading station with three shallow dishes: one with flour, one with beaten eggs, and one with a mixture of Parmesan cheese, panko breadcrumbs, garlic powder, onion powder, dried basil, dried oregano, salt, and black pepper.
Dredge each chicken breast in flour, dip in beaten eggs, then coat with the Parmesan breadcrumb mixture.
Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium heat and cook the breaded chicken breasts until golden brown on both sides.
Transfer the chicken to the baking dish, top with marinara sauce and shredded mozzarella cheese.
Bake for 20-25 minutes until the chicken is cooked through and the cheese is melted.
Garnish with chopped fresh parsley before serving.
Serve with a side salad or pasta for a restaurant-quality meal at home!
