Instructions For Making Chicken Parmesan:
- Preheat the oven to 200°C (400°F) and prepare a baking sheet by lightly greasing it.
- Set up a breading station: In one bowl, place the flour. In another bowl, beat the eggs. In a third bowl, mix together the breadcrumbs, grated parmesan cheese, salt, pepper, and Italian seasoning.
- Dip each chicken breast first in the flour, shaking off the excess, then in the beaten eggs, and finally in the breadcrumb mixture, pressing down to ensure the coating sticks well.
- Heat olive oil in a frying pan over medium heat. Add the breaded chicken breasts and cook for about 3-4 minutes on each side until golden brown.
- Remove the chicken from the pan and place in the baking sheet.
- Spoon marinara sauce evenly over each chicken breast, then top with shredded mozzarella cheese.
- Bake in the oven for about 10-12 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through and the cheese is bubbly and golden.
- Remove from the oven and let it cool for a few minutes before serving.
