Ingredients
- 1 1/2 lb boneless chicken breast
- 1 1/2 cup panko breadcrumbs
- 2 large eggs
- 2 oz grated parmesan cheese
- 6 oz shredded mozzarella
- 24 oz jarred marinara sauce
- 12 oz spaghetti
- 2 tbsp extra virgin olive oil
- 2 tsp italian seasoning blend
- 1 1/2 tsp salt
Method
Heat the oven to 425F and oil a baking dish.
Slice the chicken breasts horizontally into thin cutlets. Season with salt.
Beat the eggs in one shallow bowl. In another, mix the panko, Parmesan, and Italian seasoning.
Dip each cutlet in egg, press into the crumb mixture, and set in the baking dish. Drizzle with the olive oil.
Bake 18 minutes, until the crust is golden and the chicken is cooked through.
Spoon marinara over each cutlet, scatter the mozzarella on top, and bake 8 minutes more until bubbling.
Meanwhile boil the spaghetti in salted water. Toss with any remaining marinara and serve alongside.
