Chicken Breasts Eggs Garlic Powder Breadcrumbs Parmesan Vegetable Oil Fresh Mozzarella Marinara Sauce Fresh Basil
Prepare two bowls. In the first bowl, whisk together eggs, garlic powder, salt and pepper. In the second bowl, mix together breadcrumbs and grated parmesan cheese.
Dip chicken cutlets into egg mixture, coat generously and evenly, then coat them again in breadcrumb mixture. Cook chicken in a skillet in hot oil until golden brown on both sides.
Once internal temperature of the chicken reaches 165℉, turn off heat. Spread a thin layer of marinara sauce on the top of each piece of chicken cutlets and then top each one with a slice of mozzarella cheese.
Cover skillet until cheese is completely melted and sprinkle with fresh basil.
