Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 pieces Chicken breasts
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
- 1 teaspoon Garlic powder
- 2 large Eggs
- 1 tablespoon Water
- 1 cup Panko breadcrumbs
- 0.5 cup Grated Parmesan cheese
- 1 teaspoon Italian seasoning
- 1 spray bottle Olive oil spray
- 1.5 cups Marinara sauce
- 1 cup Shredded mozzarella cheese
- 4 optional Fresh basil leaves
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper or foil; lightly spray it with olive oil.
Pound the chicken breasts to an even thickness of about 1/2 inch to ensure even cooking. Pat the chicken dry with a paper towel.
Season both sides of the chicken with salt, black pepper, and garlic powder.
In a shallow bowl, whisk together the eggs and water until well combined. In another shallow bowl, mix the panko breadcrumbs, grated Parmesan cheese, and Italian seasoning.
Dredge each chicken breast in the egg mixture, allowing any excess to drip off, then coat it in the breadcrumb mixture, pressing gently to ensure the breadcrumbs adhere evenly.
Place the breaded chicken breasts on the prepared baking sheet. Lightly spray the tops with olive oil to help them crisp up in the oven.
Bake the chicken in the preheated oven for 20 minutes, flipping them halfway through to ensure even browning.
Remove the baking sheet from the oven and spoon marinara sauce over each chicken breast. Sprinkle shredded mozzarella cheese evenly on top of the sauce.
Return the chicken to the oven and bake for an additional 5 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly.
Garnish with fresh basil leaves if desired and serve hot. Enjoy your no-fry Chicken Parmesan with pasta, salad, or steamed vegetables!
