Ingredients
Method
Preparation
- Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
- Flatten the chicken breasts slightly for even cooking by placing them in a zip-top bag and gently pounding them with a meat mallet.
- In a shallow dish, mix all-purpose flour with garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and pepper.
- In another shallow dish, beat the eggs.
- In a third bowl, combine the panko breadcrumbs and the grated Parmesan cheese.
Cooking
- Dredge each chicken breast in the seasoned flour, shake off the excess, dip it into the beaten eggs, and then coat it with the panko-Parmesan mix.
- Heat olive oil in a large oven-safe skillet over medium-high heat. Sear the breaded chicken for about 3-4 minutes on each side until golden brown.
- Pour marinara sauce over the seared chicken and then sprinkle the shredded mozzarella cheese on top.
- Transfer the skillet to the preheated oven and bake for about 15-20 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through and the cheese is melted and bubbly.
Serving
- Garnish with fresh basil or parsley and serve.
- Pair it with a side salad or some roasted veggies.
Notes
For a low-carb option, swap panko for almond flour or crushed pork rinds. Leftover chicken can be used in sandwiches or salads.
