Ingredients

For the chicken

For the assembly

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).

  2. Prepare the chicken: Dip each chicken breast into the beaten eggs, ensuring it’s well-coated. Then, coat each breast thoroughly with Italian-style bread crumbs.

    🥄 Tip: For an extra crunch, consider double-coating your chicken! Just dip each piece back in the egg and then again in the bread crumbs. This will add a beautiful crispiness.

  3. In a medium skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Cook the breaded chicken for about 5 minutes on each side, or until golden brown and cooked through.

  4. Assemble the dish: Spread the spaghetti sauce evenly in an 11 x 7 baking dish. Gently place the cooked chicken on top of the sauce.

  5. Cheese it up: Sprinkle the grated Parmesan and shredded mozzarella cheese generously over the chicken.

  6. Bake in the preheated oven for 15 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and lightly browned.

    🔥 Watch closely! Cooking times can vary, so check for that delightful bubbly cheese that indicates perfection!

Serving Suggestions

Serves 4. Pair with a side of garlic bread or a bold house salad!
