Introduction
A delicious and healthy alternative to traditional fried chicken parmesan. This recipe features tenderized chicken breasts coated in seasoned Italian breadcrumbs, baked to perfection, then topped with a quick homemade marinara sauce and melted mozzarella and parmesan cheese.
Step 1
Trim off any excess fat from the chicken breasts.
Step 2
Cover the chicken breasts with plastic wrap and use the flat side of a meat mallet to pound and flatten the thick parts to an even thickness.
Step 3
Season both sides of the chicken breasts generously with salt and black pepper.
Step 4
In a shallow bowl, whisk 1 egg and 1 tablespoon of water to make the egg wash.
Step 5
In another shallow dish, combine Italian breadcrumbs, garlic powder, extra Italian seasoning, and parmesan cheese.
Ingredients List
Important Notes
Ensure the chicken breasts are pounded to an even thickness so they cook uniformly throughout.
Always check the internal temperature of the chicken with a meat thermometer; it must register at least 165°F (74°C) to ensure it is safe to eat.
Avoid using red onions for the marinara sauce as they can discolor the sauce.
Italian style breadcrumbs already contain seasoning, but adding extra garlic powder and dried herbs enhances the flavor.
