A classic Chicken Parmesan recipe featuring crispy panko crust, melted mozzarella, and savory marinara sauce.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts (1.5 lbs)
  • 3 cloves of fresh garlic, minced
  • 1 cup of panko breadcrumbs
  • 2 cups of marinara sauce (store-bought or homemade)
  • 1.5 cups of shredded whole milk mozzarella cheese
  • 0.5 cup of freshly grated parmesan cheese
  • 2 tsp of Italian seasoning
  • 2 tbsp of olive oil
  • Salt and pepper to taste

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Season the chicken breasts with salt and pepper.
  2. Set up your breading station: in one bowl, whisk together two eggs and minced garlic; in another, mix the panko breadcrumbs with Italian seasoning.
  3. Dip each chicken breast into the egg mixture, ensuring it is well-coated. Next, coat the chicken with the panko breadcrumb mixture until it’s fully covered.
  4. Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Sear each chicken breast for about 3-4 minutes on each side until golden brown.
  5. Transfer the seared chicken to a baking dish. Top with marinara sauce, and then layer on the mozzarella and parmesan cheese.
  6. Bake for 20 minutes, or until bubbly and golden brown. Allow to rest for 5 minutes before serving.

Notes

For extra flavor, marinate the chicken in olive oil, Italian seasoning, and minced garlic for an hour before cooking.
