Ingredients

4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
1 cup all-purpose flour
2 large eggs, beaten
1 cup Italian-style breadcrumbs
½ cup grated Parmesan cheese
2 cups marinara sauce
1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
2 tablespoons olive oil

Instructions

Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C). Pound chicken breasts between plastic wrap until even. Season with salt, pepper, and garlic powder.
Set up three shallow dishes: one with flour, one with beaten eggs, and one with breadcrumbs mixed with Parmesan.
Dredge each chicken breast in flour, dip in eggs, then coat with breadcrumb mixture.
Heat olive oil in a large oven-safe skillet over medium-high heat. Cook chicken for 3-4 minutes on each side until golden brown.
Pour marinara sauce over chicken and sprinkle mozzarella on top. Bake for 10-12 minutes until cheese is bubbly and chicken is cooked through.
