Ingredients

2 large chicken breasts
1 1/2 cups breadcrumbs
1 cup parmesan cheese
2 tbsp minced fresh basil
2 large eggs
1 tsp water
1/2 cup all-purpose flour
1/3 cup olive oil

Steps

Heat the oven to 425 F and lightly oil a large oven-safe skillet.
Whisk the eggs with water in one shallow dish, and place flour and breadcrumbs mixed with Parmesan in separate dishes.
Coat each chicken breast with flour, egg, and breadcrumb mixture, then let the coating rest for 10 minutes.
Heat the skillet over medium heat and cook the chicken in oil for 5 minutes per side.
Spoon marinara sauce over the chicken, top with fresh mozzarella and remaining Parmesan, and bake for 15 minutes until the chicken reaches 165 F.
Rest the chicken for 5 minutes, then scatter basil over the top.
