Share it :

Intro:
Savor the classic flavors of Chicken Parmesan, featuring crispy breaded chicken breasts topped with marinara sauce and melted cheese. This Italian-American favorite is easy to prepare and perfect for dinner any night of the week.

📋 Ingredients:

2 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
Salt and black pepper to taste
1 cup all-purpose flour
2 large eggs, beaten
1 ½ cups Italian-style breadcrumbs
½ cup grated Parmesan cheese
1 cup marinara sauce
1 ½ cups shredded mozzarella cheese
2 tablespoons olive oil
Fresh basil or parsley for garnish

🍳 Instructions:

Step 1: Prepare the Chicken

Slice each chicken breast horizontally to make two thin cutlets.
Season both sides with salt and pepper.

Step 2: Bread the Chicken

Set up a breading station with three shallow bowls:

Bowl 1: Flour
Bowl 2: Beaten eggs
Bowl 3: Breadcrumbs mixed with Parmesan cheese
Dip each chicken cutlet into the flour, then the egg, and finally coat thoroughly with the breadcrumb mixture.

Step 3: Cook the Chicken

Heat 2 tablespoons olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat.
Cook the breaded chicken cutlets for 3-4 minutes per side until golden brown and cooked through. Remove and set aside.

Step 4: Assemble and Bake

Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C).
Place cooked chicken cutlets in a baking dish.
Spoon marinara sauce evenly over each piece and top with shredded mozzarella cheese.
Bake for 15-20 minutes, until the cheese is melted and bubbly.

Step 5: Serve

Garnish with fresh basil or parsley. Serve with pasta or a side salad.

✅ Tips for Perfect Chicken Parmesan:

Pound chicken thin for even cooking.
Use fresh breadcrumbs or panko for extra crunch.
Let the chicken rest a few minutes after baking for juicier results.
