Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 pieces boneless, skinless chicken breasts
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1 teaspoon black pepper
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 2 teaspoons Italian seasoning
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1.5 cups marinara sauce
- 4 pieces provolone cheese slices
- 0.25 cups grated Parmesan cheese
- 2 tablespoons fresh parsley (optional, chopped for garnish)
Instructions
Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C).
Season the chicken breasts on both sides with salt, black pepper, garlic powder, and 1 teaspoon of Italian seasoning.
In a large oven-safe skillet, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add the chicken breasts and sear for 2-3 minutes on each side until golden brown. Remove the skillet from heat.
Pour the marinara sauce over the chicken breasts, making sure they are evenly coated.
Sprinkle the remaining 1 teaspoon of Italian seasoning over the marinara sauce.
Place one slice of provolone cheese on top of each chicken breast.
Sprinkle grated Parmesan cheese evenly over the entire dish.
Transfer the skillet to the oven and bake for 20-25 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through (internal temperature reaches 165°F or 75°C).
Remove from the oven and let rest for 5 minutes. Garnish with chopped fresh parsley if desired.
Serve hot with your choice of sides, such as pasta, rice, or a fresh salad.
