Cooking Instructions!
Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C).
Pound the chicken breasts to an even thickness.
In a shallow dish, beat the eggs until blended.
In another dish, mix the breadcrumbs, grated Parmesan cheese, Italian seasoning, salt, and black pepper.
Dip each chicken breast into the beaten eggs, then coat with the breadcrumb mixture.
Heat the vegetable oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat.
Add the breaded chicken breasts and cook for about 3-4 minutes on each side until golden brown. Transfer to a baking dish.
Top each chicken breast with marinara sauce, mozzarella cheese, and additional Parmesan cheese.
Bake in the preheated oven for about 20 minutes or until the chicken is cooked through and the cheese is melted and bubbly.
Serve hot with spaghetti or a side salad.
