Stages of cooking
-
Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C).
-
Season the chicken breasts with salt and pepper on both sides.
-
Set up a breading station: Place flour in a shallow dish. In another dish, beat the eggs. In a third dish, mix breadcrumbs and grated Parmesan cheese.
-
Dredge the chicken breasts in flour, shaking off any excess. Dip each breast into the beaten eggs, allowing any excess to drip off. Finally, coat the chicken breasts in the breadcrumb-Parmesan mixture, pressing gently to adhere.
-
Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat and add enough oil to coat the bottom. Once the oil is hot, add the breaded chicken breasts and cook for 3-4 minutes on each side until golden brown. You may need to do this step in batches.
-
Transfer the cooked chicken breasts to a baking dish and spoon marinara sauce over each breast. Sprinkle shredded mozzarella cheese over the top.
-
Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes or until the chicken is cooked through and the cheese is melted and bubbly.
-
Remove from the oven and let the chicken rest for a few minutes.
-
Serve hot, garnished with fresh basil leaves, if desired. This Classic Chicken Parmesan pairs well with pasta or a side of garlic bread.
