Ingredients
  

  • - 2 boneless skinless chicken breasts
  • - ½ cup flour
  • - 2 large eggs
  • - 1 cup panko breadcrumbs
  • - ½ cup grated parmesan
  • - 1 tsp garlic powder
  • - 1 tsp Italian seasoning
  • - Salt and pepper to taste
  • - 1 cup marinara sauce
  • - 1 cup shredded mozzarella
  • - ½ cup provolone sliced or shredded
  • - Fresh basil for garnish

Instructions
 

  • Preheat oven to 425°F and prep a wire rack over a baking sheet.
  • Pound chicken to ½-inch thick.
  • Dredge in flour, then eggs, then panko mixed with parmesan and seasonings.
  • Place on rack, spray lightly with oil. Bake for 18–20 minutes.
  • Add marinara and cheese. Bake another 6–8 minutes until bubbly.
  • Garnish with basil. Serve hot.

Notes

  • Chill breaded chicken in fridge 30 minutes before baking for extra crispy coating.
  •  Swap provolone with fontina or sharp white cheddar if desired.
  • Use a wire rack to keep crust crispy underneath.
  • Reheat leftovers in oven - not microwave - for best results.
