Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 Pound Boneless, Skinless Chicken Breast (pounded thin – approximately 2 breasts)
  • 1 Teaspoon Kosher Salt
  • 1/2 Teaspoon Ground Black Pepper
  • 2 Eggs
  • 1/3 Cup Panko Breadcrumbs
  • 1/2 Cup Italian Breadcrumbs

  • Cooking Spray (of choice)
  • 1 24 Ounce Jar Marinara Sauce
  • 1 Cup Mozzarella Cheese (shredded)
  • Fresh Parsley (chopped, for garnishing, optional)

Instructions

  1. Start by preheating your oven to 425°F (220°C).

  3. Season both sides with kosher salt and ground black pepper.
  4. Whisk the eggs in a small bowl until smooth.
  5. Mix the panko breadcrumbs, Italian breadcrumbs, and finely grated Parmesan cheese in a separate bowl.
  6. Dip each chicken breast into the egg wash, then dredge in the breadcrumb mixture.
  7. Place the coated chicken breasts on a baking sheet, spaced apart.
  8. Lightly spray the tops with cooking spray and bake for 15 minutes.
  9. While the chicken bakes, spread marinara sauce on another baking sheet and sprinkle shredded mozzarella on top.
  10. Bake the sauce and cheese for 8-10 minutes until the cheese melts.
  11. If desired, broil for 1 minute for a browned topping.
  12. Transfer the chicken onto plates and spoon the marinara and melted cheese over the top.
