Ingredients
 

Main Ingredients

  • 1.5 pounds chicken breast boneless and skinless
  • 1 cup breadcrumbs preferably panko for extra crispiness
  • 0.5 cup Parmesan cheese grated
  • 1 tablespoon Italian seasoning
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 cup marinara sauce
  • 1 cup mozzarella cheese shredded
  • 0.5 teaspoon salt
  • 0.5 teaspoon black pepper

Instructions

Preparation Steps

  • Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  • In a small bowl, combine the breadcrumbs, Parmesan cheese, and Italian seasoning.
  • Brush the chicken breasts with olive oil and season with salt and black pepper.
  • Dredge each chicken breast in the breadcrumb mixture, pressing gently to adhere.
  • Place the coated chicken breasts on the prepared baking sheet.
  • Bake in the preheated oven for 20 minutes, then remove and spread marinara sauce and mozzarella cheese on top of each piece. Return to oven for another 5 minutes or until the cheese is melted and bubbly.
  • Serve hot, garnished with additional Parmesan cheese if desired.
