Prep Time 20 Min | Cook Time 20 Min | Serves 6

Ingredients

  • 2 eggs, beaten
  • 1 cup seasoned breadcrumbs
  • 2 lb chicken breast
  • 5 tbsp extra virgin olive oil
  • 2 cups Marinara sauce
  • 2 cups mozzarella cheese, shredded
  • 1/4 cup Parmesan cheese, grated

Directions

  • Preheat oven to 375°F. In a small bowl, beat eggs. Fill a separate dish with breadcrumbs.
  • Dip chicken breasts into eggs, allowing excess to drip off. Then, generously coat both sides with breadcrumbs.
  • Heat oil in a large skillet over medium heat. When the oil becomes hot, fry the chicken and thoroughly brown on both sides.
  • Place cooked chicken on a plate and use a paper towel to remove excess oil from the chicken.
  • Pour 1/2 cup of sauce into an 11×7 baking dish. Layer chicken into the dish and evenly top with the remaining pasta sauce. Once the chicken is coated, sprinkle mozzarella cheese on top.
  • Bake for 20 minutes or until the cheese melts. Top with grated Parmesan.
  • Enjoy!
