Chicken Parmesan

Ingredients

Steps

1. Preheat your oven to 425℉.
2. Place the chicken breasts, one at a time, between two pieces of parchment paper. Using the flat side of a meat mallet, start pounding the chicken until it's about ½ inch (1 cm) in thickness. Repeat with remaining breasts.
3. Place the flour in a shallow plate, same with the eggs. In another shallow plate, combine the breadcrumb mixture together.
4. Dredge the chicken through the flour, one piece at a time, making sure it's fully coated on both sides, then dip into the egg mixture. Dredge through the breadcrumb mixture on both sides. Transfer to a baking sheet and repeat with remaining chicken breasts.
5. Preheat the oil in a large skillet or frying pan. Make sure the oil is hot enough, between 375℉ to 400℉. Fry the chicken in batches. Add two pieces of chicken at a time and brown on both sides until golden, about 4 minutes per side. Repeat with remaining chicken.
6. Place the fried chicken on a baking sheet. Top each piece of chicken with about ¼ cup of marinara sauce. Use more if preferred. Top each chicken with ¼ cup of mozzarella and ¼ of the parmesan cheese.
7. Transfer the baking sheet to the oven and bake for about 20 minutes or until the cheese has melted and is bubbly. Sprinkle with basil and serve over spaghetti.
