Ingredients
Chicken breasts 6 pieces
Bread crumbs 2 cups
Eggs 3
Parmesan cheese 1 cup, grated
Mozzarella cheese 2 cups, shredded
Tomato sauce 3 cups
Fresh basil 6 leaves
Olive oil For frying
Salt To taste
Black pepper To taste
Instructions
Begin by preheating your oven to 200°C.
In a bowl, whisk the eggs. In another bowl, mix bread crumbs with half of the grated parmesan cheese.
Season the chicken breasts with salt and pepper. Dip each chicken breast into the egg mixture, then coat with the breadcrumb mixture.
Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Fry each chicken breast until golden brown on both sides.
Place the fried chicken breasts in a baking dish. Pour tomato sauce over each piece, ensuring they are well-covered.
Sprinkle mozzarella and the remaining parmesan cheese on top.
Bake in the oven for 20-25 minutes, or until the cheese is bubbly and golden.
Garnish with fresh basil leaves before serving.
