Chicken Parmesan

Ingredients

For the Chicken

2 large boneless, skinless chicken breasts, halved lengthwise
1 cup all-purpose flour
2 large eggs, beaten
1 cup Italian-style breadcrumbs
1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese
1 teaspoon garlic powder
1 teaspoon dried oregano
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon black pepper
1/4 cup olive oil
For the Sauce & Toppings

1 1/2 cups marinara sauce
1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese
2 tablespoons fresh basil, chopped
Directions

Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C). Grease a baking dish and set aside.
Set up three bowls: one with flour, one with beaten eggs, and one with breadcrumbs, Parmesan cheese, garlic powder, oregano, salt, and black pepper.
Dredge each chicken piece in flour, then dip in beaten eggs, and coat with the breadcrumb mixture, pressing gently to adhere.
Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Cook chicken for 3–4 minutes per side until golden brown. Transfer to the prepared baking dish.
Spoon marinara sauce over each piece of chicken and top with mozzarella and Parmesan cheese.
Bake for 15–20 minutes or until cheese is melted and chicken reaches an internal temperature of 165°F (74°C).
Garnish with fresh basil and serve hot with pasta or a side salad.
